    I tried it once a long time ago and it made my heart race so I stopped taking it.

    I've used it, and between that, tons of working out and eating healthy, lost 65 pounds during a 3 month stretch last summer. I'd totally recommend it. BUT you have to drink tons of water and eat healthy!!!

    I used this and I felt like I was having a heart attack. I also used stackers and had no problem but you cant get those anymore. On Hydroxycut I looked like someone was constantly beating me. I was bruised all over from head to toe. My co-workers actually had an intervention because they thought my husband was beating me. Useless but nice of them to be concerned. None of these supplements are good for you I would not recommend it.

    I used it many years ago right after I stopped breastfeeding and I seriously thought my heart was going to explode in my chest. It didn't work for me, because I had to stop using it...

    ETA: only eating right and working out worked for me.

    I tired it and it didnt work. I also tried that diet pill for women....cant remember the name I think its slim quick or somthing. NOTHING!!:mad: I wasted my money.
    You can try something more natural like Acai Berry or whatnot.
    Im doing a 14 day cleanse and so far im losing and actually feeling alot better.
    just a thought.
    :smile:

    same here! i used it and nothing, i wasn't even "hyper" lol maybe i'm just way too tired -_-
    but i'm going to try Acai! and trying to get rid of the water weight

    I've used something very similar. I'm going to tell you not to use it. Stick with what you're doing. What I used made me super hyper, felt like I was on coke all over again. I couldn't focus and at one point I had to stop everything and breath. I was getting heart palpitations, couldn't sleep (even though I never took a pill after 1pm), was nauseous, and ended up having to take 3 days off of work to get my body back to normal because it made me extremely sick.

    This is how I felt after taking the womans brand Slim Quick. I quit drugs to get healthy and fix my life, and feeling like I was back on it through me into a panic mode, it was bad, and very very scary.
    I guess some people can handle the "boost" of energy, but if it scares you the way it made me, it is NOT a good idea...

    I tried it years ago, back when it still had epedra in it, and it made me SO HYPER. It did what I wanted it to, though, motivate me into starting to run long distances again and give me energy to get through the painful first week. After that I quit it.

    Just ignore the smart *kitten* comments you get when you ask an honest question. It inevitably happens EVERY time - so just expect rude people and their comments, ignore them, and move on. Some people expect all of us to be perfect, just like them.

    As for the pills - I did try them. I tried them to supplement my diet and exercise. I took them as directed and did lose weight. But the day I stopped taking them, those few pounds I did lose crept right back on.

    My advice to you - if you are interested, try it and see if it works FOR YOU. Buy one bottle, give it a shot, and see what you think. It's not going to kill you. It may have a different effect on you than it did on me. Either way - good luck!
