1. You could volunteer for famine and go on a diet.
2. Hit the gym.
Both of the above methods guarantee weight loss. Maybe not right away, but it's better than frying from the inside out.

Overall, I do not recommend DNP as a weight loss agent. The cons far outweigh the pros. In all honesty, I'd likely call this drug DNT, for DO NOT TAKE! The likelihood of perishing due to the consumption of the drug is high, and wasn't originally used for weight loss in the first place. Does that really sound like a safe drug?

Preface: I do NOT recommend purchasing this drug, as it is likely to cause death from consumption. That being said, DNP is available for purchase on the internet, mostly via the black market. DNP has severe regulations on its production, purchasing, and consumption, put in place by the FDA. Based on the description of DNP, it likely falls under the category of a Schedule II drug.

Desired effects- extreme weight loss
Actual effects- an increase in the body's energy consumption. This, in turn, causes a spike in the body's temperature, cooking the user from the inside. DNP can also cause cardiac arrest, such as in the case of Rachel Cook. Cook had been taking DNP to lower her weight, under the illusion that doing so would help with becoming pregnant. She died three days after her birthday, after fearing she'd eaten too much the night before.

2,4 dinitrophenol, otherwise known as DNP is a stimulant that is commonly used for weight loss. It has the chemical formula C6H4N2O5, and works by severely ramping up the body's energy consumption, causing a subsequent increase in the amount of calories burned. It is filled with a yellow, crystalline powder, that has a sweet, musty odor, and is soluble in water. Taken via ingestion
