Metabolife is just a you described. And I heard it about it from a
cluster of "testimonial" spots on local radio a few years ago.
Bottom line: Buzzed out like a college kid, no desire to eat, ergo,
lost a lot of weight.  Then, I needed more of them more often each
day.  40+ bucks a jar at the Burlington Mall when they had a cart in
the lobby.  Even the woman selling the stuff said to give it a break
after three months and then get back on it.  Gotta say, it would
have been nice for the fatass radio personality to have talked about
THAT lifestyle point.
