So I went to GNC a couple of days ago to get some post-workout protein powder (ended up getting their amplified wheybolic extreme 60 in chocolate.....it's working out great!) but they gave me a free sample of OxyElite Pro. I'd be down to try it b/c it seems to get good reviews but I'm a little skeptical. I also can't find out if it will effect my birth control pills. Before I head to my CVS and bug the pharmacist....I thought I'd bug you guys :)

thoughts?

    I use it and I LOVE it!!!!!! But word of caution...... if you are sensitive to caffiene, be careful with these! They are great for that added edge during the wo, but I started on 1 pill a day and worked my way up (several weeks) to the suggested 3 pills/day.... I do not find that it suppresses my appetite, but def gives me a boost during my wo's........

    I read up on it and did not find any contraindications w/my BC......

    I totally agree with Candiceg13. I love it as well and you should start with 1 pill if you are sensitive to caffine. I started with 1 pill and boy the enegery you get is awesome. I take Yaz and havent noticed that it is affecting my BC. I have been using OxyElite for about a month and I have lost 11 pounds. You have to continue to watch what you eat and workout. You will see results!

    I love it. I have been using it for over a month. (against the recommendations of most of the people I asked). I take one in the morning and one in the afternoon. You can def tell a difference. Don't know about the BC issue. Tubes tied years ago, so I don't take them.
