Combat Cravings, Metabolism Support, 1000 mcg Chromium - 30 Count

I used to be a retail store manager so I couldn't eat and work at the same time and I usually worked thru lunches and breaks. Now I'm an office supervisor and can eat anytime I want so I've gained some weight and can't seem to slow down my cravings. Therefor I started looking for a little help. I read the reviews on this product and wasnt going to get this but for around $1 a day, it was worth trying (I take 2). The first day I took it I wasnt impressed and thought I wasted my money because I still felt hungry and nothing seemed to change. I was going to continue to take them because I bought them so I might as well. On the 4th day tho, I noticed that I didn't have any kind of snacks the 2 nights before and honestly didn't even think about having one. Seemed like I just needed 24hrs for this to get thru my system. I've been taking these almost 2 weeks now and it seems that each day I take them, I eat less and less. Here it is 7pm at night and I've barely ate anything today (1/4cp cottage cheese and a few slices of ham) and I'm still not hungry. My food choices even seem to be getting better. I'm "craving" water over soda, I want fruit over a donut. It's weird how things are slowly changing. Just this morning my husband bought me home my favorite donut....maple glazed, and it didn't even sound appealing. It sat on the table for 6hrs before my son ate it. I personally don't "feel" anything when I take these. I don't feel jittery, nervous, hyper, sleepy, nausea, or any of those other things pills can do to you. Update: These have been working so well, I've lost 7lbs in the last month. My coworkers noticed I'm losing weight and asked how. Needless to say, I now have 8 people at work also using this pills and it's working for them as well!

Not a miracle pill but pretty close! Like you still have to be mindful of what you put in your mouth but it does help reduce the “food chatter” in my head and makes cravings gone if not more manageable! Down 10lbs in just a couple weeks!

I’m giving this an honest review based on my personal experience. Item was bought 2/14, this review is being done on 2/16. I normally fast from 9 p.m. until around 7 p.m. the next day. I drink water throughout the day and I’m honestly not hungry at all. I’ve been doing this consistently and I manage my cravings just fine on my own. I bought this item just to see what the hype was about; and because of the “good” reviews that was left. Ever since I started taking OLLY Combat Cravings, I can honestly say it’s made me hungrier than I’ve ever been. My stomach starts growling out of nowhere; something that does NOT happen when I’m not taking these pills. I feel like this product did the complete opposite of what it claims to do. Instead of reducing cravings, it opened up an appetite I didn’t even have before. I could easily stick to one meal a day before, but while taking this, I’ve been eating like a maniac. I genuinely feel like it’s opened up my cravings instead. In just two days, I feel like I’ve gained weight because of how much hungrier it made me. I honestly feel like I could manage my cravings without this thing. This product did not suppress my appetite. If anything, it increased it. Very disappointed. I’ll give it a few more days; and if I don’t see any changes. I’m done.

So I took this for about a month combined with working out an hour a day and concluded: The product works alright but is short term 'solution' if you have a snacking problem like me, If I take it at 8 am after breakfast it helps me not snack through the morning in the office and wait to have lunch around 1-2pm however after that I dont notice a difference I do get normal hunger for dinner. So I decided to have breakfast a bit later and take the pill after lunch to curve snacks craving during the afternoon until I get home for dinner, and it helped not feel peckish after lunch. I didn't notice a dramatically appetite lost or weight lost, as im working out daily it was a regular lost ive experience before taking pills, so yeah I felt it helps for a couple hours to not be eating outside meals but nothing crazy and dont expect to loose weight if you are not working out or to completely diet with this at least for me I didn't loose my daily appetite, if thats what you are looking for I think theres other products more focused on that that will work better.

I've been using this supplement for a little over 2 weeks and can definitely feel it is working, I am much less hungry throughout the day and have skipped my usual 11am snack a few times a week (which NEVER happens)! I haven't lost any weight but I can see I have less bloating in my lower stomach area. I will say I don't think it is helping with energy at all (probably bc I'm skipping meals LOL) but I still feel very tired especially around 4-5pm. I used the Olly Metabolism rings for about 6 months and LOVED them but they also contain Chromium so I wont pair with this supplement since 1000mcg is on the high end.

I’ve been on this for four days now, and the results are absolutely astonishing! I’m on medication where I am always hungry and I am not hungry at all on this vitamin. The first day, though I got a little nauseous and a headache, but by the second day, it was gone, the biggest problem was learning not to eat out of habit and not because I was hungry. I can’t wait to get up in the morning just so I can take this. i’ve tried a number of different pills that claim it takes away hunger and they don’t work. I will be using this for a very long time. I just wish it wasn’t so expensive but it does work.

I saw some reviews talking about the side effects of these pills, but I am not sensitive to supplements or medication at all and have not had issues with other similar supplements. While this does make you lose your appetite, you will be so bloated that it feels like you had a 5 course meal. Also the second day I took these I had the worst headache I have ever experienced in my life and was so tired it felt like my eyes were popping out of my head. It also affected my vision at a point. I was nauseous and dizzy even after not taking them for two days. Could have been user error as the first time I had them I hadn’t eaten, but the other times I took them after dinner so I thought I could sleep through the worst of the side effects. Wrong. I woke up and could barely stand up without my head pounding. So while it does do what it advertises, definitely be aware of the side effects. I will not take these again and will just go back to my metabolism drops as they do the same thing with no side effects.

Keep taking as directed; after a week or two I noticed I wasn’t even hungry at night, even when taking the dose at 7am. Maybe doesn’t work for everyone because everyone’s body is differ but it’s definitely worth a try if you’re willing to be consistent. Note: I’ve tried a LOT of supplements and other things that supposedly help with appetite suppression and for me, this product is the only one that is actually effective.

Does not suppress appetite as advertised. Didnt work for me.
