Hi
Not sure if they are called diet pills, maybe its not "exactly" what theyre called.
They arent pills that will magically reduce weight. Just ones that you take that tricks your body into being full and then not having to eat as much.
Im sure they cant be healthy for the body, but they arent for me so it doesnt matter. Im asking on behalf of someone Thanks

Adderall
Ritalin
Drugs with similar compounds as those above.

Any other diet pill is pretty much a scam or has strange effects since they can't legally include the ingredients that mess with the part of the brain that controls hunger.

Ritalin is....mind you, it's for ADD.

Weight loss is a side effect. They will give it for ADD not weightloss unless your morbidly obese.

You can get Adipex by prescription here. You'll need to visit a doctor for a full medical evaluation first to make sure you don't have other issues such as heart disease or diabetes. Since the FDA pulled Reductil/Meridia off the market, Adipex is the only FDA approved diet pill available. (DAMN THE FDA!!!! DAMN THE FDA!!!)

Coffee. Lots and lots of coffee. Black, of course. Now you might try green tea, but I think coffee has more caffeine. Yerba matte is good too.

I was taking the Controlled Labs REDuction AM & PM pills for a while, and I think they helped a bit with hunger. I lost just over 7 lbs (1.5 inches off my waist) the month I took them which is good considering I'm not really overweight. In any case, they wouldn't have been too expensive as a caffeine pill/placebo if they technically weren't working.

(PS. You may think part of that was a water loss from the diuretic effect of caffeine and other ingredients, but I only weigh myself at the sauna so my before weight is equally sans water.)

You can order various "diet" pills from iherb.com with cheap and discreet shipping to korea.
Just look under the weight-loss section and see if you can find what you're looking for.

I've ordered other things (vitamens, mac & cheese) from them and the packages arrive promptly.
