The weight loss industry advertises a lot of products that promise to people to make them slim and help them lose all the extra weight that so much hurt their appearance and their health. Among those products are also pills that if you take them regularly you can see miraculous result in your body’s appearance, or so they claim. But is this true? And those weight loss pills, do you really need them? Or can you do without them?

For a start let’s make clear that among us there are some individuals that whether they have a genetic predisposition to put weight or some other medical problem that took them to that position. For those people, not always, but many times traditional natural methods may not work so they have to rely to pills or treatments devised by the medical and pharmaceutical industry in order to solve their weight loss problems. In that case they have to consult their doctor first in order to point to them the best therapy and not take not even a pill without asking him first.

But the vast majority of people don’t belong to that group and most of them could benefit by a natural weight loss program without the need to rely to pills in order to become slim. Or not unless they try the natural method first. If that doesn’t work then by all means they can seek medical advice in what pills they should use or other treatment they may need to follow so they can reduce their weight.

What you shouldn’t do is to go straight and buy some pills yourself because you found them in a shop or on the Internet without asking a doctor first. You see, many of those products may have side-effects that can affect your organism if you use them long term. Or you may have some medical problem that you don’t know about that may forbid you from taking tablets based on certain substances as their side-effects may be more severe in your case. Or even worse, cause you greater problems. So visiting a doctor first and asking is highly recommended in every case.

But let’s be realistic here for a moment. For most people the ideal solution would be to keep living the way they do by over-consuming unhealthy foods and never exercise and then take a pill that can magically disappear all the extra fat they have put. That is what makes them, when they have problems with their weight, to seek tablets or other treatments that can take away from them the responsibility of changing themselves and the habits that led them there. The whole pill industry is an avoidance problem. Avoidance from seeing the reality, from seeing ourselves in the mirror and accept the responsibility we carry for looking they way do.

The root of our weight problems is the bad habits that we follow in our lives. They gradually help us put on weight a little, day by day, until we reach the point that we can no longer ignore that problem and we are seeking for solutions. And while the simplest solution would be to change all those habits that led us here and so start consuming healthy foods and start exercising that also happens to be the hardest one too.

So What Can you Do in your Situation?

First make clear if your problem is a medical one and you cannot lose weight unless you follow some form of therapy or medication. If you belong in that group seek medical advice and plan accordingly.

If you don’t belong in that group then losing weight becomes a problem of changing your nutrition and start exercising. In essence a change in your habits is recommended. But as the saying goes “old habits die hard” and that means it won’t be an easy task. But you don’t have to do it overnight. You can do it bit by bit by changing small things in the course of time that can make you healthier and thinner as time passes by.

If and only after you have tried the natural method and hasn’t worked then you may start considering the possibility of taking weight loss pills and only after you have consulted a doctor first. But it has to be a sincere try. Don’t just start a diet for a few days or weeks and if you don’t see the results you want then quit it immediately and start searching for tablets. You have to give it some time and some real effort (no cheating from your part) before you decide if it works for you or not.

So think very carefully before you purchase any weight loss pills. Think if you really are one of them that really needs them and you can’t succeed without them. But also be aware that as with any other medication those tablets may have potential side-effects and always ask your doctor before you take any.
