"I started using the Desert Burn Hoodia on Monday, March 27. I noticed nothing that day. On Tuesday, March 28 I got a chef salad for lunch and once I got back to my desk with it -- I noticed something really weird . . . I wasn't hungry. I ate about 4 bites and had to put it away. I just couldn't eat it. I took 2 pills that morning, then an hour later had 2 scrambled eggs with a glass of green tea. That was it! Now I couldn't eat my lunch? I realized then that the Hoodia really was working for me. Monday I weighed about 200.2 pounds. Got on scale today, Friday, March 31 and my weight was 192!! I have lost 8 pounds!!! I am truly impressed. In the mid 90's I got on Phen-Phen and lost 40 pounds in 2 months but of course they pulled that when the heart valve damage started surfacing. Hoodia works very similar to the way Phen-Phen did for me so hopefully in 2-3 months I'll be very close to my goal weight."

"I just started taking Desert Burn Friday. I am noticing a marked decrease in appetite,but it is just now really kicking in! It took a few days! I tried 3 other Hoodia products and almost gave up. I'm glad I found Desert Burn because I can actually feel it working."

"My story: At the beginning of this year, I weighed 160#, 30# over my ideal (I am a 61-year old female, 5'7"). I have been "low-carbing" for the past 10 or so years, but even though it was keeping me remarkably healthy, my weight was creeping up. I tried most things on the market, trying to boost my metabolism ... nothing worked for me.
I finally sat down and analyzed my weight gain, decided that it was likely something as simple as eating too many calories -- even though they were "good for me" calories, they were more than my body could handle and maintain a reasonable weight.
Then I read a newspaper article on hoodia, decided to try it. Ordered my first bottle AND committed to eating less (for me, that equated to absolutely NO snacks -- no nuts or cheese, particularly).
I really don't remember the exact timeline, but I do know that I used some will power at first, then the hoodia kicked in -- and I methodically lost 1.5 to 2.0 pounds each week. However, at the beginning, I very carefully avoided eating out, no huge meals -- anything that was a big temptation for me to overeat. I was not looking for a magic pill (seriously doubt that one - with no bad side effects - exists!) -- I was simply hoping for some help.
The hoodia did kick in, and it got easier and easier to maintain my planned eating regime -- which meant that I carefully planned a healthy diet then ate it, rather than letting myself get overly -hungry and then having to turn down pizza or cake.... I also continued my daily exercising throughout.
I've been at my idea weight now since April, and if I notice my eating getting "out of control" I go back to taking the hoodia and watching what I eat. For example, this past weekend we went out to eat with some friends and I had a full 12" pirogue (cajun) on Saturday night, then a lot of nuts and cheese on Sunday -- so today I'm taking hoodia and monitoring my eating, and will do so until I'm sure that my weight is once again stable (I haven't put on any weight, just think that it's quite likely that if I continue eating this way, I will).
Anyway, just my opinion and suggestion -- don't look for magic, just look for a lot of help. I think that my weight loss was 3-part: diet (I low-carb, which means that I avoid sugar and processed grains), self-control (I didn't put myself in the path of temptation), and hoodia. Good luck, Bonnie (BKM)"
So I guess I am convinced that DB works by now. I have lost 18lbs in the last month and a half. I hope to be down 25lbs by the end of the month. For the last three weeks I have been able to stop taking Celebrex for my back pain. Before my weight loss I was never able to go more than 3 days without the Celebrex. I have spent 1000's of dollars in physical therapy with no change in my back pain. If you ask me those guys rather make money by seeing me come back than put me on a strict diet and see me get better. I am very happy with the way I am feeling right now but I can't wait to see how I am going to feel 62lbs from now. I finally feel like I might be able to get back the active life style of hiking ,camping, fishing, skiing, running, etc that I miss so much. As a matter of fact I will be going camping over the holiday and I think I might go out and buy a pair of good running shoes soon.
Good Luck, James
Desert Burn has been a great tool in managing my eatting habits/patterns....it took just a little time for it to work, and I'm a happy camper because of it...lost 35 pounds in 2 months with it, in addition to walking 10,000 steps a day, and the occasional pilates class, and doing the bike too. It really helps me stay in control of my hungry horrors after 3 pm, and I can have my last meal around 3 pm and thats it until the next morning.... I do eat about 1,200 calories a day, and they are low carb choices, so that also helps with the sugar cravings and extra energy. I open my capsules into hot tea or coffee and drink it 45 minutes before I eat a meal and drink 16 ounces of water with each meal...8 ounces before I eat and another 8 ounces right after...I cant wait to hear how you do on Desert Burn!!!

My husband and I are 110% pleased, satisfied, and thankful. My Mom+Dad took us out to eat at a 99's (nice restaurant), last week. My Dad ordered the bacon cheese burger, fries, and Amstel light. Mom ordered a chicken-breast-type meal with a salad, and my husband and I ordered 1 mushroom-swiss cheese burger with water. No, not each, just 1, and we asked the waitress if she could have the cook cut it in half for each of us. The waitress looked at us like we were from Mars, and I told her that we'd never be able to finish the whole thing if we each ordered ourselves 1, so we wanted 1 to split. Then, while we were waiting for our food, we drank both our waters first, which helps kill the appetite even more. I couldn't believe the size of the dishes that were coming out to other people. They were huge. When our order came, Mom+Dad finished theirs up (I couldn't believe my Dad ate all that), and my husband and I were quite satisfied with our 3" burger. Since we started Hoodia, we have had to split everything we eat. I have not been able to eat a whole sandwich yet. And, the best part was, that 1 burger from 99's costed 6.99, and that was our whole dinner!!! The money we've saved from Hoodia so far is staggering. Hoodia has already paid for itself 3 times over compared to what we used to be able to put away between the 2 of us. My husband (who was the real skeptic), now swears by it. Keep in mind, he is in charge of security over at the Navy Base, and every morning, trucks like Little Debbie, Coke, Hostess, etc. come through to make deliveries to the Commisary and Exchange, and the driver's frequently give the security crew some 'goodies'. So, he's faced with temptations all the time, and the Hoodia has helped SOOOOO much with that. Now, my husband sees the box of Twinkies that his crew is snacking on (given to them by the driver), shrugs his shoulders, and is not in the mood to have one. It's like, you see the Twinkies, but you just don't care about them, you know??? So you're not tempted at all.

I cannot beleive how good I feel with NO SIDE EFFECTS what so ever! I feel like I am going to succeed with my weight loss goals (30 lbs) for the first time!

Today was my first day taking Desert Burn. A few days a week I volunteer at the local Food Bank. There are always tons of baked goods, sweets, etc. It's usually very difficult for me to resist....but today it was much easier!! Could it be the Hoodia? I'm thinking it is! I'm 57 and need to lose 30 lbs. I've tried a lot of things and am currently on Weight Watchers...again. If today is any indication I truly believe I'm going to show a great loss at my next weigh-in. Yay!

I started using Hoodia products about 2 1/2 weeks ago, so far I am down about 5lbs. I am noticing about 2 pounds a week which is good enough for me. I am incorporated it with LA weight loss, hoodia is basically helping w/ cravings and not feeling so many urges to eat all the time or overeating. I can actually push a plate away.

I tried the Vanilla shake and it is TO DIE FOR. I have never found a protein shake or meal replacement that I liked but this is really, really good. I throw 1 cup of skim milk with 5 frozen strawberries (big ones) and one scoop of Hoodia shake into the blender and blend well. Wow....just like the best Strawberry shake you've ever tasted. I ordered 2 more vanilla and one chocolate because it makes a wonderful meal. Good luck!! You'll love this stuff.

I ordered my Desert Burn 2 different times off this web site and it came in 3 days. I am very happy with it and plan to stay with it until I reach my goal and am able to keep my eating under control. It has really helped me to focus on what I am eating. Checking in everday to see how people are doing helps too. I love it. Hopes it works for you.

Hello! I'm 19 male, 6'2" and weigh around 210 pounds or so. I tried Desert Burn since two days ago, have had amazing results. I used to eat five to six meals a day, mixed complex carbs/proteins at around 400 calories each (plus cheating). Now, I'm down to around 250 calories a meal with no cheating- no ice cream, chocolate, you name it. I have to remind myself to eat some meals. The amazing thing is, I only use one 750 mg tablet in the morning and I'm pretty much set. Wonder if it has something to do with my diet and exercise habits (jogging ~20 to 30 minutes two to three times a week, working out 2 days a week), or more just my genetics, because I'm a pretty big guy.
