Health: Fat-Burning Drink

PHILADELPHIA (CBS 3) ―

"I thought I looked good in these pants," said Lisa Valentino-Pinto.

Lisa Valentino-Pinto says these used to be her favorite jeans, a size 28.

"I could fit my son in there," she shows us.

Lisa has lost 170 pounds over the last year, topping the scale at 300 pounds.

"I just totally started working out, made better choices when I go out to eat and totally got rid of a lot of fattening foods in my house," she told us.

She also started drinking Celsius, an energy drink. On the label that claims to burn an additional 100 calories.

"It gives you a boost of energy, it makes you workout to your fullest," Matt Triboletti, her trainer.

Trainer Matt Triboletti is now recommending it to all his clients.

They work out at peak performance the whole session rather than burning out half way through.

Some of the energy boosting ingredients in Celsius include chromium, b vitamins, caffeine and green tea.

"They work together to create this longer calories burning effect in your body," said inventor Janice Haley.

Janice Haley, one of the inventors of Celsius, says they've paid for peer reviewed studies showing it works.

"This last study shows that when you drink Celsius 15 minutes before you exercise, you're going to burn 93.8 more fat and gain 50 percent more muscle," she told us.

Becky Dilks, a dietician at Temple, says the drinks ingredients, especially the caffeine, comparable to two cups of coffee.

"Nothing is going to work like a miracle. There is no one solution to weight loss," she said.

For Lisa, Celsius was an extra boost she needed to lose that last 50 pounds, with revved up work outs and there's an added benefit for her.

"It totally curbs my appetite," Lisa told us.

It was hard work going from this to this just in time for her 40th birthday.

"It's a great feeling. I turned all my friends on to it," she said.

Celsius works best with exercise - but Janice says it will burn extra calories - even if you don't work out.

It costs about $2 a can and is available in some health stores and online
