I saw you sticking your tongue out at me!!!

I agree 100%. Its a simple equation. You take in more than you burn off you gain weight. You take in less you lose weight. To many people want a "magic" pill to do the work for them. Change your eating habits.

On a diet pill once you lose the weight you go off the pills and gain the weight right back. Do it the old fashioned way. Hard work.
