I wasnt sure where to post this but question on hydroxycut

You should try Shakeology. It works for everyone! Nothing compares! Send me a message & I will share information about it.

I have indeed used every fat burner under the sun at some point including Hydroxycut.

Missy

I have been on it for a week and so far 5 lbs down At first I didn't believe it because I tend to be like a freaking yo-yo be down 3 lbs one day and up 5 the next ... So I didn't log it until I made 3 days at the same weight . The first and second day seem normal but damn the last few days I feel like I have so much energy its crazy . I work 12 hr days running a daycare so Im telling you that extra boost is awesome .So far I think its working but guess I will have to wait and see if the lbs keep coming off :drinker:

The "secret" of Hydroxycut is lots and lots of stimulants. In the list of ingredients, you'll find a long line of them, including green tea extract, guarana extract and Garcinia cambogia. Guarana is a shrub native to Venezuela that has seeds containing double the amount of caffeine in coffee beans. In Brazil, guarana is commonly found in cola-based soda. Large amounts of caffeine like this raise your blood pressure and body temperature, causing you to burn more calories, in theory.

Garcinia cambogia is a fruit indigenous to India that looks like a small pumpkin. Extract from the fruit's rind contains hydroxycitric acid (HCA), which supposedly inhibits an enzyme that turns extra carbohydrates into fat. And it might be this ingredient that's behind the recent FDA warning and product recalls. According to a press release issued by the FDA, the agency received 23 reports of serious liver-related health problems, including the need for a liver transplant and one fatality due to liver failure. Ano Lobb, a public health researcher who has studied dietary supplements -- including Hydroxycut -- for Consumer reports, thinks HCA could be the culprit, since at least one medical journal has linked it to liver-related health problems.

Because it's a stimulant, Hydroxycut can give you heart palpitations, sweaty palms, headaches, dizzy spells and sleepless nights. And if that's not enough fun, you can become dehydrated, restless and develop a mean case of the shakes.

In a nutshell, products proven to prevent or cure a disease or illness (think prescription medications such as antibiotics), are closely regulated by the FDA and must have FDA approval before going to market. Dietary supplements, however, are not handled in the same way. The FDA does not look at these products prior to their entering the market. What the FDA can and will do, as in the case of the warning against Hydroxycut, is step in and take action involving a harmful or tainted dietary supplement once it's readily available on store shelves.

The point I am trying to make is that while Hydroxycut might work, you'll also likely experience some side effects - minor or major. This is a supplement that has not been evaluated like the Alli you were taking. Just be careful and make a smart decision about what you're going to take.

I take hydroxycut now. But I actually take it for the energy it provides me rather then anything else.
I work the nightshift and take one before work. It gives me plenty of energy for my night but then I can go home and go right to sleep without effects.

I did take it last year and lost 65lbs but can't give hydroxycut credit because I ate at a calorie deficit and did a lot of running.

I have to say that everyone is different. As you know, what works for one doesn't work for others.
And also I never took the recommended doses. Just one or two per day.

hydroxy cut well atleast one of the variations i saw's main ingredient was ephedrine hcl (ephedra was illegalized same thing different name) its an over priced version of the ecy stack without the yohimbine idk if i wanted to take a supplement like that i would just do the ecy stack because the ephedrine the caffeine and the yohimbine work better than hydroxy cut and its alot cheaper just my two cents im really considering it but i think its cheatin not sure tho

p.s i hate people that market shakeology im not gonna spend extra money on a protein meal replacement ill just go buy protein that fits my needs
