Please do NOT buy these on ebay!

Hi all,
Read the sad story in today's newspaper of a young lady who bought some slimming pills on ebay and died after taking several of them with the hope of losing weight.
Please let's all be cafeful in our bid to lose weight and use only recognised products from recommended and approved sources.

Excellent warning. Perhaps this should be on the News forum rather than in just one diets forum?

Ok, I'll see if I can figure out how to do that. We do need to be cautious. I feel sorry that the lady's life ended that way. Like us all, she only wanted to make things better. I am thankful to God that we have a safe pharmacy-monitred programme to follow.

Some people will do anything when they are desperate. It is so sad, if only weight loss programmes were more easier to access from the doctors maybe people wouldn't feel the need to risk their lives.
