them fat burners

feelnfit Posts: 87 Joined: 2002/02/03	2002/02/15, 12:37 PM i cycle my fat burners 2 weeks on and 2-weeks off because i build up a to;lerence quickly. iam trying this one calledthermo fusion from hst (health science tech) it is a liquid and acts very quickly. it does not jump on you fast but slowly comes on. it reminds me of a product from vpx that cost at least $80.00 this was $34.00 for 17.5oz. it is pretty good stuff. along with my diet and cardio it helps jump start me in the am. i do not take it on non workout days. anybody else tried this or others? david

Thermo's, lipotropics, throid function, diuretics, etc... when u get it, u can also get free an "animal training journal" that will advise the best way to take it along with other supplements. You get 42 packs for around $35. michael

I hate buying a magazine with three to four ads pushing their product in articles that are 4 pages long. (yes this is thier right/their dollar) But so many women look to the product to help them get in shape instead of making a lifestyle change.

Another problem was that in order to feel an affect I would have to take a larrger dosage. But it did help me to loose the weight. i might try xenadrine...does any1 have any opinions on that product?

festus1113 Posts: 73 Joined: 2002/02/22	2002/03/01, 10:42 AM I have tried most of the commercial products listed in the above posts and while they did help me lose weight I always had trouble sleeping and felt nervous a lot. One of the guys in my wife's unit (she is in the Army) was taking Ripped Fuel to try and make his weight and not get kicked out. This guy dropped out on the track and died on the way to the hospital. The medical examiner stated that it was caused by the thermogenic he was taking. I know that this is probably a rare and isolated case and that thousands if not more safely use the products, but it was enough to make me quit using them. My wife knew this guy and he was taking three doses of 6 pills, not really insane or anything. Just be careful to follow the directions and if you get to the point where you need more than the recommended dosage, maybe ask a health care professional if you could be at risk. Good health! -------------- Stan

Jeremy0280 Posts: 19 Joined: 2002/01/19	2002/03/11, 05:27 PM I have used them since I was 18. But have only tried Hydroxcut, Xenadrine and ripped fuel. I found that ripped fuel made me feel irritable and the crash from it was hard. Xenadrine is really good for longer lasting energy but didn't seem to help with any fat loss. I like hydroxycut or now that I am Canada they call it "hydrolean"! Anyways, I can't say I recommend any of them to any one person first off they are not good for you. They help you lose weight but it's mainly "water". And they are really expensive. Coming from someone like myself who takes them now just for extra energy or occasionally fun=) stay off and stick to a more "modified" diet. Good luck and health!

I have been using Hydoxycuts for a few years for only 12 weeks a year. I am not sure if it's the cause but I will not take them again.At this time I am going through a few tests & hopefully everything will turn out ok. Today I am attached to a holster monitor for 24 hrs to record my heart activites.
