I am in the process of reducing my body weight from 155 to 147 a weight that is square in the middle for my height. I don't take any supplements or vitamins at all - a well balanced diet will give you everything you need. At the same time I would like to reduce my body fat from around 16% to 10 or 12%.

My plan right now is to concentrate on distance running for the winter and moving over to epic road bike rides in the spring.

I disagree.

I don't know anyone who gets the right amount of vitamins, minerals, fiber, etc etc without supplementing their diet with something as simple as a multi vitamin to things much more complex (depending on their needs).

However, having said that, I think fat burners are a waste of time and 'miracle' supplements which promise to promote weight loss etc.
