Hydroxycut stories

Now I know there is no miracle pill but after having my daughter 7 months ago I have been having a hard time dropping weight with diet and exercise alone so after hours of reviewing and reading side effects I have decided to try hydroxycut. Today is day 1 for me and so far no dizziness or side effect at all for that matter. I'm interested in hearing from others who have used this product. How much did you lose? How long were you using it?
Thanks!

Starting a thread on hydroxycut suggests otherwise.

Pay Money - Swallow Pill - Get Jittery - Money Wasted

Exercise Story:
Eat at a reasonable deficit - lift weights - cardio for fun - body of your dreams achieved

This... Plus you can get some natural caffinee for a lot cheaper.

I have done Hydroxycut also. I don't think its worth the money UNLESS you are using it along with exercise and a healthy eating style.

Candidly speaking, I don't like endorsing 'hydroxycut pro clinical'. I wouldn't call this post an endorsement, just an idea of what to expect. If you really want to lose weight quickly this is one way, but for me the side effects outweigh the benefits.

Before I added hydroxycut, I spent 6 weeks working up my endurance. I was running up to 30 miles a week and cross training with three 60 min. bouldering sessions per week. During the first 6 weeks that logged, I lost 3 pounds. For my second 6 week period, I continued my workout regimen and used hydroxycut. I lost 10 lbs during the second 6 week period.

I was really happy with my results, but the side effects were too intense for me to continue. I started getting really lightheaded when I ran or stood up quickly. Everything began to seem "hazy" and I had an incredibly difficult time focusing on simple tasks. I would get really anxious at night and couldn't sleep for more than a couple hours. I felt really sick every time I ate. It also really made my period irregular. I developed acne. When I stopped using it entirely, I experienced withdrawal similar to cutting out coffee.

I would never use this product long term, or even at the recommended dose (my tolerance was half of the recommended dose). If you choose to use Hydroxycut, listen to your body. I feel that it exacerbates underlying issues. Log how you feel through the process and if you cons outweigh the benefits, don't be afraid to stop using it.

-Good luck and good health! I hope this post helps whomever stumbles onto it!

:flowerforyou: Congratulations on losing 8 lbs. I purchased a bottle of the new Hydroxycut Gummies. Stimulant -free. Sixty gummies for $20 on sale at Rite Aid. I have been chewing two gummies before every main meal. I'm usually lazy, but Hydroxycut makes me feel like exercising. Popped-in a workout DVD and actually completed it.

Cons: Makes me thirsty. Upper torso is moist from a little sweat--it's 20 degrees in Washington and I'm cracking open a window.

God Bless you and your family.

For last two months before taking HydroxyCut Pro Clinical Gummies, I cut out a great amount of sugar in my diet as well as Gluten. But even with exercise and eating good I was only maintaining so decided to try this. This is w/o caffeine which is a plus for me.

Day 5 now.
Here is my review:
PROS: Gives me more energy w/o caffeine or jitters, tastes great.
CONS: Has made me crave sugar and breads. The first day I ate a whole box of breakfast bars, couple brownies, soda (haven't had in months), whole box of Girl Scout cookies, and more cookies later. On top of my regular healthy meals!!! Made up for all these months w/o I guess I thought ok this was just the first day so will stop after that day...nope...still crave sweets and breads like never before. Although I am resisting it, has made it way more difficult then was doing on my own!!! On top of that it gives me so much energy I have a hard time going to sleep, no sleep...keeps weight on. Before taking this I was maintaining. With it I have actually gained 1 lb in 5 days!!!

I like this for the no caffeine energy but if these cravings don't stop I will have to stop taking these.

Has anyone else had these cravings with these???
