With the flurry of ads for pills, add to that all the supplements you find... is there anything that really HELPS? I'm not looking for something to do the job for me, but if there's a combo of vitamins or a supplement that really helps the body in the long term weight loss game... I'd like to know what it is! (And please, no ads; tell me what works for YOU.)

I take Optimum 100% Whey protein...I have been advised not to go for the fat loss supplements due some very serious side effects (nausea, headaches etc.). The natural way (though slow) is the best way to loose weight. My Nutritionist has told me to have 1 Vitamin B tablet everyday before workout and 1 spoon flax seed oil everyday before going to bed and after waking up in an empty stomach, as it helps in the process of burning fat...i have been able to stick 2lbs weight loss everyweek using this...try it out...maybe it'll work for you too...good luck
