Anyone else bothered by the rediculous prices of fatburners? ...I ask this after a recent visit from GNC and Vitamin Shoppe....really an eye opener. The cheapest was 29.99 and the expensive was >60....
I'm thinking the main use is for energy, not weight loss....
Any comments?
I Disagree with you, fat burners are very useful to help give that extra edge and visiting GNC and vitamin shop is where you went wrong. They can be found way cheaper online.

Without getting into the technical effects of weight loss products, these are some of the more common effects I used weight loss products for. One of the hardest things about weight loss is establishing a discipline of diet & cardio. The appetite suppressants in WL products really help to transition me from larger to smaller portions when I eat and it curbs my pallate of certain food choices. Also, the added energy as you pointed out, especially toward the beginning when the stimulant is at full throttle, helps to establish a regiment of cardio while energy is in an extreme surplus and cardio becomes an easy outlet to satisfy some of that restlessness, therefore, once the stims begin to wean, you'll have had the opportunity to have established a discipline of cardio.
Granted, not everyone needs these extrinsic motivations, but it is helpful. Furthermore, relative to the fat loss product, you recieve greater caloric expenditure for your cardio efforts and depending on your bodytype, certain fat loss products will assist in breaking up fat more effectively then your body normaly would for energy expenditure; even while sedantary.
Lastly, the mental motivator deals with the previous paragraph, its easier for me at least, to diet and do my cardio, when I know I'm getting a bigger bang from my efforts via the weight loss product. I burn additional calories for my dietary sacrifices and I expend more calories while I'm lifting and utilize fat more effectivey while performing my cardio.
Nothing I've mentioned makes weight loss products a "need" for success, but they do help a whole lot. I'm a endo-meso, which means I tend to be on the heavier side naturally and I really benefit from weight loss products whenever I decide to cut or even recomp.

the term fat burner is pretty damn misleading as none of them "burn fat"...
if you're using them for added energy skip all the bullshit they put in them that doesn't even work and drink coffee. they have it at most work places and its free.
it stains your teeth though and makes your breath stink so... buy caffine pills or look for ephedrine hcl. but other than those two theres nothing that actually "burns fat" that is in any pill
I just saw your post and had to make some additional site info visual.
here is what I found from some cutie that has a doctor's outfit on. (maybe Halloween costume)
irregardless:
Clenbuterol does work effectively as a fat burner though. It does this by slight increases in the body temperature. With each degree that the temperature in your body is raised from the use of clenbuterol, you will burn up approximately an extra 5% of maintenance calories. This makes it effective as a fat burner. Your body will fight this by cutting down on the amount of active thyroid in the body as well as through beta receptor down regulation which explains why you only have a limited effective period to take clenbuterol.
had to throw this in as well: WILL CLENBUTEROL HELP ME BURN FAT? DIET AND CARDIO are MOST IMPORTANT in this process! If one sits all the day in front of TV eating all he wants, effectiveness of Clenbuterol will be GREATLY reduced!
So, training, diet, cardio and supplements should be “taken” together. Do not try to use short cuts because they do not work!
that's for some friends of mine, that are beautiful inside and out!
(their exact words as well)
Training is everything. The peach was once a bitter almond; cauliflower is nothing but Cabbage with a College Education.
A box of bronkaid is dirt cheap. Throw in a cup of coffee and youre good. No hype, no bs. it works.
Even if you buy caffeine pills instead of coffee it's dirt cheap. Although I have never noticed any "fat burning" effects from taking an EC stack, but it provides good energy while cutting so it's a good diet aid all the same.

Definitely need to stay out of retail stores for ANY supplements for that matter.
