Raspberry Ketones - Appetite Suppressant?

Today is the start of day 26 on rapsberry ketones and I am doing horribly with sticking to my plan. During part of my experiment I got off the RK for 3 days and that made me gain back all the weight that I have lost. Trying to get back on after that time just messed me all up. I shouldn't have never got off. I am thinking that it also had a placebo type effect on me. Putting my hope and trust into a supplement that I thought could actually help me not over eat.

Raspberry Ketones Experiment - Day 20 - Update

Today marks day 20 on raspberry ketones and I am quite proud of my 6 pound weight loss. There maybe some of you out there that surpassed me considerably. Now I was to put a little twist on my experiment. I am going to stop taking raspberry ketones for 20 days and see what happens.

The top reasons for this is the following:
1. Was all the weight I lost simply water weight.
2. Will I feel withdrawal symptoms from not taking RK.
3. Will my cravings come back.
4. Was it all a placebo effect.

So for the next 20 days I will continue what I have been doing and just not take the raspberry ketones. I will weigh in daily with my stats.

Raspberry Ketones - Day 5 - Update

I purposely forced myself to eat 3 times more food than I would usually consume today. I wanted to see if the raspberry ketones are the main factor of my weight loss. If I gain weight tomorrow I can put on the record that you still would need to eat less to have these "miracle fat burners" work. I haven't been exercising at all since starting this experiment. Today's weigh in was 231.8lbs. Let's see what happens tomorrow. Good night!

Raspberry Ketones Experiment - Day 1

In my previous post I explained how I was interested in the Dr. Oz phenomena raspberry ketones, the “Miracle Fat-Burner in a Bottle.” So I went and bought a bottle online and received it today. Today is officially day one of the Raspberry Ketones Experiment. I will be documenting everything from my weight to blood pressure while on this experiment. I will take 500mg of raspberry ketones once before breakfast.
