Does anyone know the address that I ship the goods back to for a refund?
They just aren't working, plain and simple.
Is it this address?
JC ARNICA
405 W. Fairmond Dr.
Tempe, AZ 85252
Also the date on the shipment envelope says 10/20/2010
Tomorrow is the 20th November, but surely they have to be understanding about the American / Australian postage system taking so long to send and receive. (Unless that's the scammy part of it all).
Any help is appreciated.
Those that see this, obviously know I won't be updating my progress thread, because there's nothing to report. Thanks for your help though, appreciate it.
Have you sent them an email asking them if that is the address and if it is still ok to send them back as of today? I would just in case, at least they will know and might give you a return number or something.

Hi dinkidi, thanks for the reply Yeah I did, but they take like 2 days to reply. So since I was going to the post office today I wanted to get them out there.
I really don't want to lose my $149 though. :( I don't know what to do. If I send it now, at least I can say "I sent it before the 30 days was up! here's my receipt for proof"
They never answer. And I usually have to leave a message, and I get a call back tomorrow or the following day. Since it's friday I wouldn't hear from them til Monday maybe. :/
@ sunflower: sad to hear that but 1 week's time to give up is so short. i suggest you give the pills time to adjust on your body and vice versa. i have seen few who did not lose weight on their first week because of different body reactions but with perseverance, they saw changes after a week.so i hope you can give more time to the tablets if you won't be able to send them back.as and cc are good weight loss pills and i am a living proof..lol! with the 50 kgs i have lost, i would think these are miracle pills but they are not. you also need to help and change your lifestyle. diet and exercise.
have you tried increasing your dosage or are you doing exercise and diet?
but if you have really decided. go give them a ring and email, who knows they'll reply or call back. nothing will happen if you only assume. at least if you send them an email, they will see the date stamp that you sent the email this day.i believe they are an Australian company, they just ran out of stock from their Australian warehouse or something. i was able to talk to John using the number in the website.they won't be able to register a ".au" domain if they are not a registered Australian business. Goal: 36-24-36 with AcaiSlim

I see your point. Thank you Marga.
I kept the remaining pills from the two opened bottles, and put the empty bottles in the parcel with the other 4 (2as and 2cc) ready for shipment back. Am awaiting an email from them before I put it in the post.
I have been doing exercise everyday by walking where i need to go. I've completely overhauled my diet and while i had a few up and down days, i've tried for about 2 weeks now to lose weight and I am still 60.4kgs.
it's just depressing. I have a few tablets left from the opened bottles. I suppose I will try for a third time, but I think it's a waste of time.
Can you tell me exactly what you did to lose the amount of weight you lost?
The sucky thing is, I only want to lose about 12 kgs. I only just turned 30, it shouldn't be impossible. I take the VLCD's more than anything else. Those at least should be helping even if the pills don't.
@ sunflower: if you are not seeing a drop in kgs, try measuring yourself. dinkidi lost cm's instead of kg's in her first week, then she said after a week she saw a loss of 1 kg from weighing. muscles tend to be heavier when we weigh so tape measure might be the answer for you.
also, i suggest belle's technique of kj counting.
here are my tips. i just copied and pasted what i have wrote in another thread months before.:)
"Here are the things I did: 1. I took Acai Slim and Ultra Colon Cleanse three-four times a day on the first month. Breakfast, lunch, dinner. Then when I already lost 15kg, I decreased the dosage to 2 times a day. Now, I'm only taking it once a day to maintain my figure. I think I can stop using Acai Slim at the end of the month - or else I might be too thin. Lol! But don't worry, I'll still be in this forum to help out newbies. Besides, I have already established friendship with all of you. So it would be hard for me to leave all of you. :) 2. I took the capsules before meal with 250ml water. 3. I take lots and lots of fresh and clean water. 4. I exercised regularly. Name it - sit-ups, crunches, cardio, aerobics, yoga, treadmill, jogging, brisk walking, stretching, i even went to the gymn on the first 2 months. I did ALL of that everyday. 5. I only ate small amount of meal. No sweets, no junk foods, no sodas, no desserts. Only water, vegetables, fruits, and some meat. 6. I go to the toilet - twice or thrice a day. This is a natural effect of Ultra Colon Cleanse. 7. I also went to Ceragem. It is a mat that is electrically heated. I cover my whole body with that so I could sweat a lot. It feels great when I see my sweat pouring. My friend bought it so I was able to use it. It's like a sauna/turkish bath in a mat. It is proven that when we sweat, we also decrease some fat. 8. Lastly, the greatest advice that I can give you is: you also need to have confidence (believe that you can do it), discipline, perseverance, and dedication. I know Acai Slim did not do it ALL for me. I also played a major role in accomplishing this weight loss. If I was not disciplined to do all of these diets, exercises, and such - I wouldn't be this sexy. :)"
as i have always told people here... if i can do it, you can do it too. just believe in the partnership you and the pills can do. :) Goal: 36-24-36 with AcaiSlim
The other good thing I've found is the support from people in the forum. To be accountable to someone, even someone you don't know or probably it's better that you don't know them, it does help. I'm supporting a friend who doesn't use a computer, she is sending text messages on weigh in day and feels guilty if she cheats because she thinks I'll know about it.
To be accountable to someone also means you are honest with yourself, there is no point giving false or misleading measurements it's only you that it affects.

@ sunflower: btw, you have the same case with sugarfree...but i just saw her post that she now have lost 400 grams. :)
@ dinkidi: i couldn't agree with you more. i think that is one of the reasons i lost weight. the support of the people in this forum is exceptional. it feels great when someone virtually taps your back whenever you report a weight lost and it feels greater when someone uplifts your spirit when you feel down of fat.having a chit chat with people experiencing, understanding and not misjudging you surely helps. Goal: 36-24-36 with AcaiSlim
Yup Marga exactly. It's not the same as discussing it with girlfriends, not all of them are weight challenged and also can't always understand why you want to change "you are perfect as you are" for example. The same situation with a partner, they love you unconditionally and even though are often supportive it's a different support.

Oh sorry to hear that sunflower. Have you tried upping your dose? I lost 5 kgs in my first batch of AS and CC. And I am happy to report that after exactly 27 days today, I have lost 3.2 kgs. My target is 5 kgs before Christmas, so I still keep my fingers crossed that I will lose the 1.8 before December.
@ loveme: wow! good job! well, AS seems to be working on you so i think you will achieve the remaining weight to lose soon. good luck!
to answer your question, i don't take AS anymore. that was my post when i was still with the pills. i just copied and pasted it from the thread i posted it in. Goal: 36-24-36 with AcaiSlim
Thanks you guys. You are all very sweet. Thanks Marga, I will try those tips. LoveMe I was drinking lots of water, and taking the colon cleanse 4 times a day (2 in the morning and 2 at night) and then I was taking 4 AS with meals. (3 meals were shakes, then I was having vegetables for dinner, or salad)
Then, I have been sweating constantly at nights as it is, and I was walking to and from class and work, and since it's been ridiculously hot lately I thought I was doing enough.
Especially since I'd lost 400grams here and there. I got down to 57.4kgs on my old scale and I hadn't seen 57 in a long time.
But then this morning, I weighed back in at 59.8 again.
I don't know. Third time lucky maybe?
To be honest, I hate exercising. I was hoping if I lost these 12ish kilos, that maybe i'd walk more and / or use my elliptical trainer.
I am definitely not as dedicated as you Marga. I really couldn't do all that you did. But maybe I can do some.
Today I ate a muffin because I am depressed, not just with the lack of weight loss but with a bunch of other things in my life, and I suppose that doesn't help either.
I'm with you sunflower if i where also in your situation I will feel the same.. One thing I can advice you is DON"T LOSE HOPE.. Have you tried CERAGEM?
@khloekobe: I tried ceragem before it was really good. I sweat a lot, and feels good. It's like you're in a sauna bath and all you can do is feel the sweat pouring out your body. It's relaxing.
