Pink Patch
This little sticker can potentially provide weight loss.
BACKGROUND
First there were patches to help you quit smoking, then birth control, and now there is a patch for losing weight. Created for women trying to lose those last five pounds, the Pink Patch is a substance-infused sticker that you slap on once a day to curb your appetite. The ingredients, which seep into the skin, are intended to control your appetite for 24 hours while revving up your metabolism, curbing your appetite, boosting your energy and elevating your mood. Pink Patch is the newest product from Curb Your Cravings, responsible for the Hoodia patch.
The Pink Patch is marketed toward girls and women in their teens and early twenties. You are expected to lose approximately one to three pounds each week.
The suggested use for the Pink Patch is to stick one patch on your skin in the morning and leave it on throughout the entire day. You are encouraged to drink a lot of water, avoid alcohol and limit caffeine to only a cup per day while you are wearing the Pink Patch.
PRO
- The Pink Patch may be able to help you lose weight
- Pink Patch does not cite any side effects
CON
- No FDA approval or evaluation of the supposed and intended results of the Pink Patch
- No scientific or medical claims to support the Pink Patch claims
- It targets young women whose bodies might be more vulnerable to the unregulated and synthesized ingredients contained in the Pink Patch.
- Does not include any guidelines for how to maintain a healthy weight once the young woman stops wearing the patch.
- It encourages young women to be skinny and to do introduce potentially harmful substances into their bodies in order to achieve their dream bodies
INGREDIENTS
The Pink Patch contains, Fucus Vesiculosus , a type of seaweed, used in holistic medicine to reduce excess weight by increasing metabolism. It also contains yerba mate, a South American stimulant and hunger suppressor and lecithin, an emulsifier that is claimed to re-proportion your body weight. The ingredients in the Pink Patch are absorbed into the skin and are time released throughout the day.
DIET and EXERCISE
Even though there is no formal diet or exercise plan you should follow while wearing the Pink Patch, you are encouraged to eat a low-fat and low-calorie diet and exercise in order to be see the intended weight loss results.
CONCLUSION
The Pink Patch is a dietary supplement that has not been approved or evaluated by the FDA, therefore its effectiveness and safety cannot be validated. Also, be warned of any supplement that claims to shed pounds by simply putting a sticker on your arm. Moreover, since this product is targeted specifically to young women, it promotes the pressure for women to be skinny by doing whatever they can to achieve their perfect body even if that means taking a product that is unregulated and potentially harmful. As with any new drug or supplement, consult with your medical doctor before taking the Pink Patch.

DO NOT DO IT! They continue to keep sending it and taking the money from your bank. I've had to cancel my card to stop it and the stupid thing doesn't work anyway!
I have been on the Pink Patch for 6 weeks now and I have lost 12 lbs!!!!! I am amazed but IT REALY WORKS!!! it has also helped me with my PMS and has stopped my pre-menstrual spots! and I feel good too!!! So good I have decided to take up Pole Dancing!!!!...and I am 40 YEARS OF AGE!!!
Kristen, Just pop it at the top of your arm and leave it on for 24 hours. Good Luck!!
Can someone tell me how long you're supposed to keep a patch on for and where to put it? I just bought them off ebay and i want to try them asap! thanks
not tried it yet. hope i dont get busted!! ..hopefully it works. i just need to lose 1 stone.
im on to the second months subscription and i have noticed a difference i dont know how much weight because i dont have scales but i can definately tell by my clothes i have also noticed that when i eat whatever it is i cant manage the old portion sizes i used to have i know everyone is different but it is working for me so far even my mood is better
This product is fantastic. I have been overweight scince I was 17 and now at 21 I look and feel great! The PP helped me control what I ate and I saw a noticable difference within days - just try it!
I haven't tried it, but i am planning to. I think that it does different things for different people. Like your weight for example. If you do take it, i think you should eat more healthier, it might give you a weight loss boost :] Good luck, ladiess
DONT DO IT, ITS A TOTAL CON, TRIED IT 4 A MONTH, EXCERCISE EVERY DAY AND LOST NOTHING. DO NOT BE CONNED. JOIN WEIGHTWATCHERS, IT COSTS LESS AND HELPS MORE.
I am into the second week of using the Pink Patch and I am delighted with the results...I am a qualified Clinical Nutritionist and feel that as with all so called "fads" the results differ from each individual...what suits one might not suit another...we all know that healthy eating and regular exercise are the key to achieving our goals..but a helping hand and an extra boost in energy must surely be a bonus!
Called Customer Service today and it took 4 minutes for them to answer the phone, but I think I did manage to cancel my subscription, even though I did e-mail them 2 days ago and still no reply. I think the best thing to do when cancelling is to call and get a name of who you spoke to. I spoke to Sharn (I know that the spelling is wrong) today, but only time will tell if this has worked....
REMOVE MY NAME?ADDRESS FROM YOUR LISTS
When reading all the comments I guess thats why I can't get them in California. California might suck at times but at least they don't let us try stupid things that harm us.
I had the trial pack and felt a boost in my energy levels and general happiness, also after 1 week I lost weight, I dont own scales so I dont know how much, but it is visible.. had a week off them and felt really down, bit worrying...then my monthly supply came and im back on them feeling ace, just been shopping and bought a size down, honestly, i have got a lot to lose though 4 stone ish so maybe it comes off quicker when you are very overweight, im 39 years old, and other than the worry they may be addictive, i am over the moon with them..janey x
It is easy to cancell online, I just did and they have sent me confirmation too. As for the patches, its still early days as I'm only in my second day of using it. I must say though that they do make me feel a bit like when I was taking NowSlim, which made me lose weight, but made me feel sick so I stopped. With the patches I do feel warmer and more energetic if nothing else. I will see if I lose weight first before I order for real. My advice to anyone wishing to try patch, Make sure you don't have high blood pressure or are taking other medication. Good luck all!
Kaayslaay(aka idiot): in reponse to your comment all I can say is that you are a muppet, it's mispelt not mispelled - get a life love!! Wish anyone trying this the best of luck, but be careful with bank details. If your really worried ring the bank and cancel your debit card.
