Thank God for that, because I wasnt thinking rationally. Then I realized one day that I didnt want to risk "dying" to be thin. There was a time I would have done anything to be beautiful, but I would rather be obese than dead. Missy, you only get one shot at life, and one shot to get it right, and live the life of your dreams. Dont take an unnecessary shortcut. The added benefit of sweating it out in a gym and not sucking down pills is that you have all the bragging rights. Make sure you think this through from all sides before you go through with taking the pills.

I asked all my questions about the ephedrine and the amount he is suggesting is no different than drinking a cup of coffee. Ephedrine is completely legal here in Canada and I heard that the main reason they took it off the market in the states is because it works and it was hurting the diet industry. Yes, people have died from it...but those are people who didn't fully inform themselves on dosages etc...most of those people were taking 100mg or more a day of it that actually did die. I will only be taking 24mg a day.

I understand a lot of you don't believe in it...but I have been told it is completely harmless if you know what you are doing.
