NutriGold Glucomannan GOLD, Konjac Root Fiber for Weight-loss, 700mg, 120 Vegetarian Capsules

The buyer Steve is absolutely right. I purchased these for the same reason he did. Was curious about the Lipozene product but hated both the price and that "infomercial' hype it has behind it. The skinny woman in the ad keeps stressing that its "only for people who need to lose serious weight" and "you don't have to change your lifestyle" That's stupid. I need to lose about 50 pounds to be in the middle of my health BMI. My goal is 60 to be closer to the thinner end as I'm short. I've put on "serious weight" as a combo of age, extreme stress and poor eating habits. It would be great to take something and "ta-dah" the last twelve years gets undone like a computer button. It. Will. Not. Happen. Voldemort will return before such a thing is invented.Today I am ordering my fourth bottle and I'm doing so because it works for me and the price is great. I started in May and after the first couple of weeks I could feel my jeans fitting differently. Then the effects seemed to stop. I was ready to write a bad review like some of the other folks here, but i thought let me finish the bottle first. So I did. Still didn't seem to be doing anything, but I got the second bottle to stick with it. Why? Well there were other things that I liked that were happening to me other than straight weight loss.I felt lighter and less bloated. Drinking the water before the meals with the capsules had an effect. I actually seem to be craving more water which for me was a great thing. I used to be a picky eater and strictly a water drinker as a kid. I hated processed juices because of the sweetness and soda because of the bubbles and sugar. I use to order water with my Mcdonalds Happy Meal instead of that orangeade they gave you. Now and then I'd drink cranberry juice for the tartness. I like tart and sour. I can limes and lemons the way people eat oranges. And growing up I was thin.I've never had coffee in my life because I can't imagine putting it in my mouth. I like the smell in the air, but like perfume I wouldn't want to drink it. So I became a tea drinker, but didn't like the bitterness so I added sugar. Lots of sugar. Then I found a few brands of "Southern Sweet Tea" and my all time favorite the past couple of years Gold Peak Green Tea. You buy into the goodness of "Green Tea" but kinda don't consider the 45g of cane sugar in each serving. That really helped to pack on the last 20 pounds or so that I've gained. These pills somehow seem to help me curb that adult sugar craving. It isn't a miracle cure or anything but I've lost about 14 pounds in the past 11 weeks. Not earth shattering but it's been a loss that I achieved all on my own without pressure from counting food points or calories or eating things I just don't like. I notice that my midsection is changing from a rounded looking "muffin top" in jeans, to a smaller pouch with a thin bicycle tire! I tried on a maxi tube skirt a few weeks ago with a light Assets Spanx and... the small fit me! I felt it was too good to be true so I got the medium, but I finally wore it last weekend, and it's definitely got some room in it!It would be more, much more weight loss to report if I could get motivated to do more exercise. Ahh who am I kidding, we're all in the same weight loss boat here right? I mean if I did ANY exercise beyond the 10 minute walk from the bus to my job each morning and afternoon:) If I could get the exercise in I am sure I'd be able to give you not only rave reviews on Nutrigold Glucomannan, but amazon reviews of the rower, elliptical machine, Zumba for Kinect, Hip Hop Abs, Tae Bo Boot Camp and recently purchased Total Core 2 Ab Machine that just arrived. I put it together tonight and plan to start in the morning.Oh one other thing. Last time I ordered these I added Nutrigold 5-HTP Gold to my daily routine as well and it's been about three weeks of taking both faithfully twice a day. I don't know about helping with weight loss, but 5-HTP has made a HUGE difference in my sleeping pattern! I feel sleepy around 9:30 or 10:00 pm, and if I go to bed I fall asleep and stay asleep. Even if I overdo it with the water during the day I'll get up for a bathroom break and go right back to bed! I must say that with this combo I do have a reduced appetite. I'm not craving sugar, fat and salt as I used to in the afternoons. I have a couple of potato chips and fold the bag up into my purse and end up tossing it out in a few days! I love chocolate but only seem to crave it a day or two each month (girls you'll understand :) and only a square or two, half a bar max and I'm good.It's difficult being over weight in today's "Glam Culture" where everyone seems to want to look like a walking Ralph Lauren, Tommy H or Abercrombie ad. More so when you have genetically thin people around you who think they are doing you a favor by pointing out every time you gain an ounce.I would love to have an Undo button shipped via Prime 2 day. Heck, I'd pay the $3.99 for the faster upgrade! But it ain't happening. I slowly gained this weight over a number of years, so it's only logical that it will take some time to remove it. Fortunately this time I think this time I'm on to something.

Better than I expected!After reading the other reviews I wasn't sure what to expect; but it does work. I take one pill in the morning one hour before I have my breakfast, it fills me up. Now you have to be careful the first week of taking these, they are fiber pills....so I had two bowl movements the first 2-3 days but nothing to be alarmed at. It doesn't happen anymore, I do consume anywhere between 9-10 glasses of water or crystal light lemonade all day. I also take one at lunch time and dinner 30 minutes to one hour before consuming a meal. What this product does is it makes you feel full longer, I have also noticed it has diminished my cravings which is what I wanted. But you will notice if you don't take this product you will get hungry again. I also exercise 3-4 times a week to help me loose weight. I have lost 5 pounds so far. This is NOT a diet pill, it is a fiber pill to fill you up and not be hungry between meals. I will definitely buy this again. I also eat healthy meals, such a protein and vegetables and right now I am also drinking Almased for breakfast, lunch and dinner to loose the weight.

Googling "Glucomannan side effects" will do. Did I stop eating? yes. Did I loose weight? Nope. I exercise one hour a day every day, eat light, and bought these pills just to get skinnier and because they are "safe". In two weeks of getting three pills a day, I found that I'm gaining weight. Soon enough I got a weird bump/s in my stomach. As for now, I'm still taking the laxatives that coasted me 5 times more than Konjac powder. It feels like I'm constantly bloated, it hurts, and I look fat.FYI, Glucomannan is widely used in a food industry as a food thickener. As an experiment, I mixed the Glucomannan powder with some water and flushed it down to my kitchen sink. I already knew that Konjac root works like a sponge, so I flushed it quite well. It actually stuck on the entrance making a slimy substance. Just to give you an idea.

It works (surpresses your appetite) but you need to take it consistently and at least 1/2hr before your meals per the directions. Can't beat the cost and knowing its all natural without hidden ingredients is always a plus! I will buy this again because yes it does work if taken properly, and also because you can't beat the price, and PRIME too ... kudos

Like most women , I am 50 yrs old 5'8 was a size 8 . I gone thru a hysterectomy at the age of 39. Had gained over 30 lbs. in 10 yrs time. I've tried every diet pill out there, I've exercised , starved myself, etc. still the metabolism stopped, etc. I am so happy I Googled this product and after two weeks Time...I can zip my dress pants up all the way!I'm no longer hungry or snacking or thinking of food.I'm only taking one pill with coffee in the morning and it lasts all day! I eat healthy , salad, tuna fish sandwich,etc. but I just eat a lot less!A little bit of food fills me up. I can see the weight lose in my face, I'm sleeping well, I'm moving my Bowles more often and I feel great.I genetically have high cholesterol and can't wait to go back to my Dr. To follow up.My mom is 50 lbs over weight with High blood Pressure, artificial knees that can't handle the weight and she loves sugar. She has been on the Konjac Root for 1 week and feels a big difference in her eating habits. Although the weight lose is slow, it is far safer for your body and your heart to lose in moderation, just as we gained it!I feel it's the best and I'm looking forward to leaving my size 12's soon and returning to an 8 !
