My thoughts on diet pills

I think we've all thought about it at one point, diet pills. You see commercials on TV all the time advertising them as well as the constant reminder that you don't look like the girls promoting them. For those of you who don't know, I am a very impatient person. So when I first started working out and 2 weeks had gone by and I still felt like my body didn't look like a Victoria's Secret model, I was a little upset. One of my friends posts all the time advertising a diet pill. She says that you can eat all of the stuff you normally eat and just take this pill and drink this smoothie and you'll lose weight. In my opinion, unless you are unable to workout (i.e. injured) then there is no reason you should be taking diet pills. ESPECIALLY at the age of 18. Get your butt on the treadmill and to the gym and work for what you want. I think because I have made such drastic changes to my diet as well as working out at least 5 days a week, it really bothers me to see these girls my age taking this stuff and seeing results faster than I am. Seeing as I'm the one doing the work! If you don't like your body, do something about it. It doesn't matter if you can barely run a mile, you're still doing more than someone sitting on the couch.
