I haven't tried them, but I also would like to know!!!!! I know these patches are supposed to suppress your appetite. THe thing with me is, I eat even when I'm not hungry! If it is mealtime, I will eat something whether I'm hungry or not. I get really shaky and sick feeling if I ever go too long wtihout eating, so I'm scared I'll get sick if I ever miss a meal! So, I dunno if these would work for me. Ugh...

Rebecca, are you hypoglycemic? I eat all the time too, and my doctor suggested that I have 6 small meals a day because I have low blood sugar all the time. When I go too long without meals I get the same way as you.

I'm also the same but everyone becomes hypoglycemic without eating for a long period of time as hypyglycemia means abnormally low glucose levels. Glucose comes from food, and without food, obviously your glucose levels drop.

I haven't tried that specific patch, but I did try some other natural herb whatever patch ( can't remember the name). Anyway, it made me SO SICK.....I used it for 2 days and I had palpitations, nausea, and I was sooo dizzy. It was horrible. My mom used it too and she was fine, though. ::shrug:: I guess it just depends. Just be careful with anything you use; everything has some sort of side effect and some people feel it more than others. Again, this patch may be totally different...I'm just relating my experience with a patch. Good luck; I hope that one works
