Hi guys, i bought two weeks supply of lipotrim off ebay, then visited the official website and saw the warning, do not buy lipotrim products off ebay. I emailed info@lipotrim.ie inquiring as to what was wrong with the sachets if anything, but havent heard back from them. Have ye any advice for me!!!

Lipotrim from the pharmacy is dodgy at best. Avoid buying it anywhere, it is utter crap, and insanely overpriced, but I suppose most "pharmaceuticals" cost a lot :rolleyes:

Throw it away, eat a bit less and exercise a bit more...

I fail to see why you emailed them. They already said not to do it, surely the reasons are pretty damn obvious!!

I wonder what flavours anthrax comes in?

The main reason is obvious to me, if this crap is on sale on ebay it loses its faux pharmaceutical appeal that their clever & disgusting marketing techniques have conned people into believing. This stuff could be on sale in tesco or ebay, there is nothing in it special, it is simply food, and very little of it. Do you see cadburys warning against people buying bars on ebay? No. Do you see other high price products with fixed RRP do it, yes, to protect "high-end" electrical distributors and agents who make a killing on their products, just like I expect the pharmacists do on this crap.

I'm inclined to agree with the above, I don't think there's anything dangerous about the sachets, I'm on my second day, 5th shake, and feeling fine! Thanks guys!

You'll be back in 5 weeks wanting to know where it all went wrong...

if you REALLY want to lose weight rapidly without bothering your arse to excercise:
Go down to Moore St and get hold of a month's supply of soft pears.
Eat nothing else.
You WILL lose weight!

:pac: that's next on my list, give me a chance to fail miserably at this one first!!!

Lipotrim has been slammed by loads of sources, as a fairly high risk of losing weight - don't buy it anywhere. The reason the makers don't want you buying it online, is that even if you do get it and it's the genuine article (off someone who bought it for personal use etc), it is a diet that a) costs a BOMB to buy normally, and they'll lose a sale, b) it is supposed to be a strictly controlled 425 calorie a day only diet only to be used by someone 'assessed' by an authorised lipotrim retailer and c) they don't need any more bad publicity.

that's my two penneth.
