diet drugs - a mini photo essay!

[keryx]

I made hope_persists come with me to the drugstore this evening, and we went down... The Vitamin Aisle! Which is also, it turns out, the wacky diet drug aisle! Good times, huh?

Everything was so yellow and exciting!
Ooh! Ooh! I want to be desired. Of course, apparently so did everyone - that package looked, um... used. Also, hey, flourescent orange pills to go with the yellow ones!
These slim mints come in a super-chunky package. But hey, who doesn't want to fight bad breath with disturbing stimulants? Yummy!
Look! It's TrimSpa! That's apparently the stuff Anna Nicole sells. This is hope_persists doing Anna Nicole's part for her. I think she has a future in teevee, don't you?
This is my favorite. It's supposed to be a feel-good pill that makes the belly fat melt away. hope_persists says it feels like a cardboard box and is not melting her belly fat, even though it's pretty warm out.
This one is also excellent: apparently this drug makes you turn pink and waiflike and dance around all twee-ly. I like the live version better.

Next I'll be ducking them like department store spritzy chicks.
Feh
The whole thing is so ridiculous I want to just laugh at it but at the same time it makes me so fucking mad. What a load of marketing crap.
