This patch is working very well for me. I really want to lose the weight I have put on and have tried many different products. I will continue to use this product. I have lost four pounds in the first week and a half and surprisingly I do feel a bit more energetic. So far, so good. Only time will tell.

I tried this product for the first three days (one patch) and it seemed to work. The problem with its sticking and also the extreme thirst were understandable if not expected, but it caused overall body itching that turned out to be just unbearable! I emailed customer service to ask about this and they couldn't be bothered to reply. Why would they? They're getting enough money from clueless first time customers such as myself to a) acknowledge and research the side effects their product DOES cause, or b) share the possible causes of the itching in certain people, if they know.

Here's some more things that sucked about the product: I was exercising regularly when I started using it. But then I started to get winded within five minutes to the point of stopping my exercise. Also, I definitely couldn't fall asleep easily so I started a take the patch off immediately after work rule. That was much better than waking up at 3 in the morning to feel my heart racing!

As for the good parts, it did suppress my appetite. It was weird, I'd crave all kinds of foods like normal, but when I'd go to get something to eat I'd only get one serving of one thing and be satisfied. The energy level (or restlessness. Or "jitters") I got from using the product was really quite the something. Before I started, my apartment was really in an ignored state due to tiredness after work. That first day, I worked a 14 hour day -- rare for me -- and came back and scrubbed my entire apartment clean! While all that was pretty impressive, it just didn't make up for jumping up and slapping and scratching myself throughout the day (and at work, nonetheless) like some kind of idiot. Sitting still was no easy feat!

I won't use this product again until I figure out how to deal with the itching.

People who want to lose weight; this is the aid for you. I have lost 10 pounds and I'm very happy. I had no trouble at all sleeping. If youre motivated to lose weight, this product really helped me. 5 Stars, highly recommended!!

I only gave this product one star because I didn't have the option to leave NO stars! Not only does this product not work but the only thing that's thinner on me is the skin where the patch used to be...and my wallet! I contacted customer service about the money back guarantee, of course they give you a whole 15 days to receive, use, and ship the product back for your refund. I was given some really valuable advice from customer service to eat right, drink lots of water and work out for 30 minutes everyday and if that doesn't work, I should have my thyroid checked. Good to know they employ such knowledgeable people with medical backgrounds. Save your money!!

For the record, A) I'm a consumer and not paid to write this crap and B) Patches are a LOW DOSE mechanism for drug therapy. 14mg sounds about right for LOW DOSE patch delivery. I would be suspicious of a 500mg patch! If you are 300lbs, perhaps you should consider that your body mass needs a 20:1 tincture or 1000 mg oral dose. Oral meds are not completely absorbed into the bloodstream, the stomach breaks down quite a bit. You may be lucky to receive 14 mg through the stomach after a 500mg dose. Fact is, weight loss has more to do with your mental state and determination to lose than ANYTHING you take. You can take 1000mg of pure Hoodia and still find your way to the bottom of a pint of Ben and Jerry's! It's all mental people. These patches are meant for a person under 200lbs trying to lose that pesky extra 10-20 lbs. It's not a cure for clinical obesity and psychological depression linked to overeating! That's my two cents. If you're a person needing to lose 10-20lbs and are relatively "drug sensitive", this product should work for you--as it has for me. It helped me lose the weight, but it wasn't the only thing that helped!!!!! It just took off the edge of missing that delightful apple fritter every morning. Ya know? (FYI: I gave this product a 5 star rating to try to bring some balance to its unfair 3 star average--not because it's 5 star--nothing's going to be absolutely 5 star)

I have been using this patch for about 6 weeks and I have just placed my second order. Is it "the answer" to all weight loss problems? Does the fat melt off magically? No. But I have lost 5 pounds this month without doing anything different. And that is something different for me...because I do not lose weight easily...even with starving and exercise. You see, I am over 50 and the weight came on within the last 8 years. 5 pounds is not a lot....but this time next year....maybe I will be a size 3!!! Just a joke. But...I am going to re-order, and see where this goes!

I've been using this for only a week now (on patch #2) and I've already lost an inch off my waist, hips, and thighs. I haven't lost any weight specifically, but any doctor will tell you that weight is not a measure of getting slimmer, losing inches is. I did get the red patch of skin like everyone else; I put some hydogen peroxide on it (don't have any rubbing alcohol) and it seems to have mostly gone away in the past couple of days. That parts annoying but the weight loss is worth it! I don't feel hungry very often and my cravings are down to almost nothing (unfortunately, though, when I DO eat because I feel obligated to I end up eating more than I did before because my body is hungry even if I don't feel it!)

Still, though, I excercised twice this week and it really exaggerated the effects. Of course you won't lose weight sitting on your bum, the patches are meant as an AID, not a cure-all.

The only downside (besides the red splotch on your back) is that I sweat a lot more and it's harder to get to sleep at night. Still, though, I think it's worth it and I would recommend it.

I have literly tried just about evey diet patch I can find. I have tried this patch (I have not ordered from amazon, but I will because of the price) I can honestly tell you this patch works. I have already told everyone I know about it. I have had no problems with it coming off or anything. Best patch i have found.

The main reason I bought the patch was for appetite suppression. The first day, I didn't feel any different, so I put 2 patches on. I still didn't feel any different, for the exception of an itch on my back for a week after peeling the patch off. The patch will work if you stick it over your mouth. If you want to loose weight, eat less and exercise more. I can't believe I fell for this product.

They don't help you lose weight at all. The only thing they did was irritate my skin and waste my money.
