Hydroxycut Options

[6th_celi_vert]

I just bought a bottle of this Hydroxycut stuff for 70 dollars to go along with my routine diet and exercise and was wondering if anybody has had any experiences with this or if it even works?

My friend takes it. Its only really meant to be used if u need to lose weight for like an upcoming event because it just takes away your water weight. I think ur better off going to the doc and asking for something personally.

I have used it to get ripped before.


Drink alot of water, and 2 weeks on, 2 weeks off.


I would take it in the mornings, then before lunch and then at about 4-5 so I wasn't up all night. And if you are really reactive to caffine watch out. They also work better than no-doze for me.

If you want something to help you lose weight get Lipo 6. That stuff will make you lose weight and you wont be all jittery and crap. The downside to Hydroxycut is the amount of pills you have to take. Because for the amount of money you spent it sounds like you got the Hardcore one. I would give the Lipo 6 a try. We sell waaaaayyyyy more of that than the Hydroxycut here at GNC.

I got pills from my doctor and insurance doesnt cover them :-( 120 bucks a month. Now if I could just remember to take them every day rather than here and there then id be doing alright.

this thread reminds me i should go out to my car and get em. Thanks :-P

I wouldnt trust the stuff

I dunno, most pills out there dont work... Like they'll work while your on the pill, but when you get off them you'll just gain the weight back... Seems kinda pointless to me to use them... But thats just me.

Exercise/Healthy eating FTW!

i had a friend who used it...didnt do too much..id say the best thing for you to do is to drink plenty of water....most of those diet pills have the same ingredients in them anyways just in diff. amounts

holy ****, $70??? I used to work at a health food store and we sold it for like... $40/bottle canadian, so less for you. but yeah, i don't think it actually.. "works" as Sabrina said, while you're on it you may notice a bit of results, but you'll have to be on it forever if you want to keep the weight off.

cmon guys just go get regular exercise, you DONT NEED TO PAY MONEY TO LOSE WEIGHT.

The diet and exercise thing will only work for certain people. Some people no matter how hard they try just cant lose weight just dieting alone. Thats why they try pills and other things. Not everyone was blessed with a speedy metabolism. And the eat less exercise more thing is the wrong way to lose weight. If you do that your body will start using its muscles for food.

stacker2s is where its at..

amen to that brotha

Ive pretty much used those so much that they no longer have an effect on me. lol.

Its not that i wanna lose weight though. I just want to pack on muscle. Ive pretty much lost all the weight that i can without looking too skinny.

Stacker 2 is a good "fat burner". It was better when it had Ephedra but its still one of the best sellers.

[bloodrain]

you can train your metabolism to speed up. And its not about eatting less working out more, its eatting properly and working out properly. For instance your supposed to eat 5 small meals a day, granted you eat properly in those 5 small meals, go running for 30 mins a day, and after 3 or 4 weeks, tell me you havent lost weight. And anytime you do ANYTHING your body will use some muscle for energy, thats why people losing weight and people body building eat 2 completly different diets. The best time to exercise is in the mornings right after you wake up, you have some energy from sleeping, but you have no food in your system. So go running and your body will draw energy from fat right away, then after you get your shower, eat a well balanced breakfast. Its not really hard to lose weight I have a pretty slow metabolism and have lost 17 lbs in the past 2 months and Im feelin better than ever.

[massbrandon]

^^ thats how youre supposed to do it. Im doing 7 small meals a day and ive lost 35lbs in 3 months. I am taking vitamins and protein though to help gain some muscle for College Football season that starts in a couple weeks.

anyone heard of "x mass". Supose to make a person bulk up in about a month. This guy i go to the gym with gained 20lbs of muscle in a month. That stuff isnt certified either but its on the market. I just bought some, but i havent started takin it yet. Has anyone heard of it?

[massbrandon]

I work at GNC and we have MassXXX. Is that it? Im pretty sure its the same thing. All it is is a protein powder with 50+ grams of protein. That stuff is expensive. You can take any protein to put on muscle. As long as you check the sugar, carbs, and sodium and make sure theyre all low you will be okay. I know that Muscletech just came out with their version of a mass gainer called MassTech. Its a really good tasting, and effective weight gainer. Another good company is Natures Best(Isopure). They make a weight(mass) gainer with no sugar, carbs, or sodium(if there is sodium its really low). Those are the 2 I would look at.

[sugarfree]

No, what x mass are pills, you take them 3 times a day. Im not sure if i can get a picture of it or show you. I bought from Ultimate Nutrition. Maybe after i take it ill post the results, but from what im reading it seems like everyone here wants to lose weight instead.
