Do diet phills help you lose weight?

Diet pills usually don't work. Either they don't do anything, or they make you lose a small amount of weight, then it comes right back on whenever you stop taking them. The best way to lose weight and KEEP it off is a reduced-calorie diet with exercise at least 3 days a week for 30-60 minutes.
