Scene and heard

Searches for Lypozene continue to make up a large proportion of hits on this blog. The TV Ad has changed since my last entry. It now makes the product seem highly affordable. But please don’t be fooled if you are tempted to try this product. It is no bargain.

What follows is a comment posted anonymously to my original entry, followed by my response. If you have any thoughts about buying this product, please read on.


Their new ad insinuates that you get a 30 day supply for $29.95. When I call to talk to them about it they say it only says a 30 day trial period. I rechecked and they are right. What they give you is 30 tablets and the directions are to take 1-2 tablets before each meal. That comes out to 6 tablets a day or 180 tablets a month.

Now here the catch; and there are two. First one is in the guarantee. It says you can return the bottles before 30 days for a refund; even if both bottles are empty. If one bottle is supposed to last a month how can they both be empty after 30 days when they are supposed to last for 60 days. They even try to scam you by putting you on a monthly auto billing of another bottle at a charge of $39.95 and I'm sure S & H on top.Oh I forget the false advertising of tagging another $1 on the $29.95 for a fuel charge when the ad clearly states that you will only be charged $29.95.

When you try to order Lypozene, they mention that you get a free bottle for another 30 supply, which again insinuates the 30 tablets is good for a month.

My final answer is; where is the government stepping in and going after these scam artists. Is this not the purpose of government, instead of them only being there to violate our rights. Seems the government only endorses and encourages illegal, immoral and fraudulent business. It's about time the people of this country wake up and stop this abuse.


My response:

Thanks for your comment, anon. The ad has changed since I posted this blog entry. They used to boast that their product is expensive, but works, so if you are serious about losing weight and all else has failed, you should try their product. I suppose this didn't achieve the desired results, as they now have this 'special offer'.You will notice that in small writing at the bottom of the screen, the results they actually claim are 3.86lbs average weight loss after 8 weeks. Naturally, although they tell you that you can achieve results without diet and exercise, the recommendation is that you combine these with the pills.

I just looked at the website, which is confusing. They show bottles with 30 tablets, but mention that if you take 6 tablets a day, a 60 count container will last you 10 days. Hmmm! Perhaps that is only the first month, when you buy one and get one free. Based upon the above comment suggesting that the price after the first order is $39.95 per bottle, plus shipping, the maximum dosage also known as the recommended dosage, would run you either $120 or $240 per month plus shipping. People, please! Spend the money of a gym membership and personal training sessions or a dietician before you spend this much money on chemicals.

You are absolutely right that con artists like these should face legal challenge. But as long as enough people are desperate enough to lose weight or make money, scammers like these people and Crazy Fox will continue to be there to unload their wallets of as much money as people are willing to be parted with - and the government will do nothing about it!
