Some interesting advice here, I'm working at getting into good shape again and am considering whether I want to try some supplements. Getting into late 30's now so thinking I may need an extra boost.
I'll say that for working out, my experience is that the quality of the workouts is everything. When I first hit the gym I didn't see any real results in my physique, got stronger but even after 3-4 years I didn't really look any different. But I didn't know what I was doing and hadn't read anything about weight lifting. Things took a turn when I started being a lot more diligent about it, reading some body building books, working out to failure, and mixing up the exercises I did for each body part. For example there are multiple exercises you can do for triceps (can't say I know the proper name for each) and I'd do a different one on each day that I did triceps. Just cycle through them. Same for bench press: use the bar, then next time use dumbells, then next time do flies, once in a while do pushups, etc is what I'd do.
The past few years I didn't stop working out, but the intensity of the workouts decreased and I started skipping workouts more often. The result was loss of almost all physical results. So yeah it's possible to be a regular gym-goer but not really look much different.
As for people asking if women notice a good phsyique, my experience has been that they most definitely do!

It sound a bit excessive, specially if you drink other types of liquid (beer, soup,tea,soda) too.
Anyway, nobody addressed the body type problem here, since different types need different approaches to weight loss.
Mine is ectomorph, in plain, I can eat as much as I want, I can get ride of it in a few days if I need to or care. Here is more info:

If your type is endomorph, you are going to need to put lots of effort into losing weight and aging won't help either with the slowing down metabolism...
Put away the lotion and tissues!
