SVETOL Green Coffee Bean Extract, 90 Liquid Softgels with 400mg of Clinically-Proven Svetol Per Cap

I purchased 2 bottles of this item in April 2013 for weight loss purposes and to control my appetite. I knew I was choosing the right product because it stated it was Svetol Green Coffee Bean Extract, which meant it was the pure ingredient, not an artificial green coffee bean extract of low quality. The first month with little change to my diet, and moderate exercise 5 days a week, I lost 17 pounds. Now I know you might be thinking it must have been just the diet and the exercise, but I can assure you that I have in the past only lost at the most 8 pounds in one month's time before, and in my diet this time I ate pizza, ice cream, french fries and the like, and still lost weight.I took the supplement as directed 1 capsule 3 times a day 30 minutes before each meal with an 8 to about 16 oz. glass of water each day. The extra water was my idea to help my digestive system keep moving along. In 4 months I had lost a total of 40 pounds, which was an average of 10 pounds per month. For me this was excellent. Than in late August I hit a rough patch in my life were I slacked off on my exercise, totally ignored any kind of a diet, and took no supplement; so you know what happens then you start to gain the weight back. I put on 16 pounds of the 40 I had lost. So starting the first of October I went back to taking the Svetol Green Coffee Bean Extract, modified my diet, and exercised moderately, and I kid you not it hasn't been a week yet and I have lost 7 out of the 16 pounds I have to lose.I'm not saying that this is a miracle pill, lots of people have had success with with product, and others have had no results, but for me it has really worked wonders. I feel that the fact that it is in liquid form and easier for the body to absorb has something to did with it reacting so well with me; but it's up to you to be the judge. All I can say is that it works for me and I highly recommend it.Oh yes, one thing I forgot to mention is that it is an excellent appetite suppressant. It has worked so well to suppress my appetite that I have to remind myself to eat, and when I do I get fuller quicker. I usually get hungry late afternoon just before dinner, this supplement has taken away that problem; I feel satisfied until dinner time. Also I no longer have any late night cravings, it's amazing.UPDATE: It is now October 8th. 2013 1 week later since I started retaking the Svetol Green Coffee Bean Extract and my total pounds lost for the week is 11 pounds. That's right 11 pounds with only a moderate change in my diet and exercise. This is the most weight I have ever lost in one week. Also I like to add that I was weighed by a dietitian the first time when I started retaking the supplement, and then weighed by the same dietitian the second time. He could not believe my lost, he had to check my weight twice. Now I don't expect a lost like this next week, but it's an awesome start. Remember each individual is different so your results will be tailor made to your body type and metabolism. I wish you good luck.

I bought this product not really expecting much. After taking it inconsistently, it turns out that it really does work. Keep your expectations in check because it's not the miracle worker that it claims to be. You won't get results is short order. You also won't get dramatic results likely. What you will get results.The instructions say to take one capsule 30 minutes prior to each meal. For me, this proves more difficult than it really should be. It's not the taking three times a day that stripping me up. It's the 30 minutes before meal. I get hungry when I get hungry; its not like I have fixed times a day that I eat meals. So what I do is I take one right after I get up in the morning; one just before I eat lunch at work; and then one just before I leave work. That seems to work even though there sometimes more than 30 minutes before I get to eat.Going with that pattern, and mind you, I missed capsules some days, I have been losing at a rate of about 1 pound per week. Like I said, not a tremendous amount. But I am losing where before I would not. I am NOT a large individual... I was 186 pounds when I started. Just weighed myself now, down to 182.6 pounds. My diet has not changed even though I was already eating pretty clean. I also have not adjusted my workout any, or added anything to my workout.I had two concerns with the product. Neither will stop me from continuing to take it since they're not absolute deal breakers.1: while I am dropping pounds, it's difficult to tell exactly where. My body looks no different than it did when I started, however the digital scale that I'm using simply cannot lie about these things.2: the product will make your stomach churn and gurgle like crazy. It will make you want to use the bathroom, but what comes out will be a little bit...surprising. More will come out then you would expect, especially given what you end up eating for the day. In my case I eat a soup for lunch, a sandwich for dinner, yet what comes out of me would lead you to believe that I was eating a large pizza or something.In short, yes it does work. But you really need to be patient and tolerant with the product. It does take time to take effect. That said I know that it claims that you don't have to change your eating habits. But you really should consider doing so anyway.
