Watch you diet, lift weights and do cardio...be honest about it. If you find that you haven't been able to lose weight beyond just having a plateau then you might want to consider trying a different pill.

I'm currently taking BC pills and I've maintained 15% bf...even though I've been wanting to lower it but haven't been able to I know it has to do with my eating habits and not much else.

The most you gain from the pill is about 5lbs from water...if this is a problem just switch brands.

Good luck!!
