Would like to know if any body has had as little success as I have with Acai Slim. I am returning my product for a refund. I started taking Acai Slim on 07/01/2012 up to 27/01/2012 and have not lost any weight, except for a couple of grams. I ordered three bottles of Acai Slim plus the free colon cleanse. I am not obese but I do need to drop approx 10 kilos I would have thought with all the claims made by Acai Slim that this would be achievable, unfortunately this product has not lived up to the claims stated in their web site. Very disappointed.

Hello there Suzie. It's sad to know that you're kinda losing faith on the product. In my case I'm experiencing changes like my appetite went slow and my cravings went down. I also do some exercise in the morning. I go up and down the stairs for about 20 minutes. It's actually my 12th day of using the pills. On my first weigh in I lost 1 kilogram. And I'm looking forward for future weight loss. How about you? You haven't loss anything? How about your food intake?
Hi Suzie, I think the product works in different ways for different people which is fine if it works for some and doesn;t for others everyones body is different. I think that in all most people have lost weight even if its just a little with this product. I think that the website should however change its heading : as on google it says with out exercising ect whihc of course isn;t true a smost ladie son here add excercise and get the results. I think its also harder if you dont have a lot to lose anyway , I have about 15kg to lose (before my wedding in november) i also need to lose that weight to ttc again as i have pcos and am hoping it will help. Have you tried other products? were you drinking enough? Have you tried taking two in the am and pm of each? were you exercising too? eating well? As with any weight loss diet program those things ar eimportant. anyway i wish you all the best even if you dont decide to keep with he acai slim

Hi suzie.. Jaine is right we have different body reactions, some experienced quick effect but for some they experienced slow effect.. Just want to ask if you tried increasing your dose? How many do you take now?
Hi Suzie, sorry to hear about that. But since you have much weight to lose, your body should have reacted to its effect faster than anybody else. Anyway, try increasing your dosage to 3 or 4. It might help... good luck.
@ Jaine: sorry to hear about your PCOS. My friend also has that so she is having a hard time losing weight. I am not sure if AS will work if you have PCOS. It would be better to ask your doctor about that.
Are you doing exercise and eating healthy diet Jaine? You need to have a healthy diet and do some work outs/exercise so your weight loss will be faster. Upping your dose from 2 to 4 is also a great idea. Good luck!
LOL of course I am exercising, the problem I have is before i had my son I was anorexic for 8 years and then having him i recovered but since having him i have the opposite problem i cant lose weight, after many tests its turns out that the PCOS is messing up my body and thats why the weight gain is a problem i have already ditched the antidepressants too which were making me gain weight (10kg) to be exact. So while i have technically recovered i still see myself as bigger then i am but im currently now 70kg which is over weight for my short hight of 153cm. I've taken the next step of ensuring i can always exercise i am hiring a treadmill and making sure i do 2 hours exercise a day as well a sup my dosage. I dont drink a lot of water htough maybe thats my down side i only pretty much have coffee and teas through out the day so im changing that. I have a goal too besides my wedding we want to have a baby at the end of the year. well start trying so i want to be in tip top shape, to try to conceive again with the help of the specialist who wants me to lose weight. I know its hard work its even harder going from one extreem to othe other but havingm no luck this time budgeing the weight!

I think that people who ask are you exercising and eating healthy should be mindful that different people have things working against them that just coz they're doing the right thing doesnt mean these pill that guarantee youll lose 10kg in 4 weeks witho ut diet or exercise mind you willl work for them.

The reason why others ask if you are exercising and eating healthy diet is because they think that these things will help you lose weight the faster way.. :)
I'm going to be brutally honest and say I THINK PEOPLE SHOULD STOP MAKING EXCUSES. I have had to battle many, many illnesses over the years and I have managed to lose 20+ kilos. I think one of the reasons I've been sucessful is that I've stopped making excuses.
I ate way to much b4 and that was why I was so fat....

Precisely belle, that's the main reason why people get so fat it's because they are not into a healthy living like eating healthy,and exercising.. :) One more thing exercise is not just for fat people.. Even kids should exercise too to be healthy.. :)
I didnt loose any weight either... instead - i picked up almost 4 kilos in 6 weeks... and A/S was the only "new" thing in my diet..... i agree - the website should be worded differently... it does NOT work for everyone!
I count kilojoules and record my kilojoules burnt off during exercie. I try not to go about 6500kj which is enough food to keep you full and you can add the occasional treat as well.

You get used to it KK. I also check the labels when I go shopping. If I think something has a high kj content I usually put it back on the shelve unless it's my treat day.

Good luck with your refund! I posted mine back (to the USA!) nearly two weeks ago and still NO REFUND!
You paid with Paypal????? I opened a dispute with them and they refunded me in FULL. Not just for "sealed" bottles that are returned. PLUS i had to return it locally to the address the paypal account was registered to. I had to just provide proof that i posted it back - with a reason why i wanted my money back.
I just LOVE paypal...... makes online shopping so safe and "fool" proof.

Jaine, I asked those questions because they might help you remember that you need them. Not just because they will help you lose weight but because everyone needs to do exercise and eat healthy diet. As I have said before, you should consult your doctor if you can take the pills. Because I think these pills will not work for you because you have PCOS. PCOS is the main reason why you are gaining weight. Also, you should treat your PCOS before trying to have a child. People with this syndrome are having a hard time getting pregnant. Well, I am not a doctor. It's just that I have a friend who also has PCOS and she told me about it.
I have PCOs and I have lost 20 kilos using a/s and c/c combined with a sensible eating plan and exercse. I have also gave up smoking last May and still I've lost weight.
There are really no excuses for losing weight, if you want to lose weight you will.

it's just sad that we have different body reactions with this product. but in my case, i can say the products acai slim and colon cleanse are my life's saviors and they really changed my life.losing 50 kilos is not a joke.so don't blame me if i treat these products as my God.
Yeah i did pay with paypal AND no local address for return, had to post to USA (REGISTERED) and opened a dispute two weeks ago and still waiting! Waiting!

I agree with Belle. We can't help you out as much as we want to. We hear you but you don't have to take the "hate" in here as we don't need them in our weight loss journeys. What we can do is advice you on our experiences and give some tips. Go to the support. We can only HEAR you here but the management can LISTEN (hope so).
