Xenadrine vs. Zantrex 3 & Hydroxycut
Anyone use any of these? Any reviews?! I haven't been dancing, got another job for the next couple months...And I've been doing a lot of driving which equals no exercise, fast food and not enough water. I need to drop about ten pounds in the next month. Which pill will help me do that the fastest, with a restricted diet and less exercise? Thanks so much for any suggestions!!;)
Re: Xenadrine vs. Zantrex 3 & Hydroxycut
They only work when you totally focus on diet and excersise. But, even if you do it w/o the pills youll see great results regardless.
I personally take Hydroxycut and sometimes if I take too much in a day I sweat alot and get jittery. I remember once I took 3 before my day shift started and at one point on stage I felt like I was going to fall off I was soo dizzy...very scary. I think theyre are all bad and a waste of money but yet I take them only because I might need and extra boost here and there.

Before Ephedra was banned I took the original Hydroxycut and it was a very scary and traumatic experience. I would be sitting on my couch watchin the TV and I could feel my heart racing easily 110 BPM, normally I am 70-80 BPM. But I tell ya what, I really lost weight in a good way. Combined with a proper diet and suprisingly not too much exercise. I had a nice tummy and everything in about a month and a half. Now that most products are Ephedra free I doubt that they will have the same impact as the originals. I have heard of the Xenadrine working well.

Whoa...this stuff sounds scary!
Re: Xenadrine vs. Zantrex 3 & Hydroxycut
I am a fan of Xenadrine, I love it it gives me energy (but not too much), it suppresses my appetite, and I always lose a good amount of weight when I am on it.

I used to take Xenadrine with the ephedrine before they banned it and i lost 15 pounds but then gained it all back when i stopped taking it.
Re: Xenadrine vs. Zantrex 3 & Hydroxycut
I don't think any of them work. I have tried them and don't notice a difference. On the other hand the ephedra versions were awesome. I took those for almost a year until they were banned and saw great results. I mostly took them before working out and never had a problem. And on that note.....if anyone knows where the old ephedra pills can be found, that would be super....

Green Tea is a good alternative if you're worried about the scary side effects from some fat-burning supplements.
If you drink green tea you can-
Click for info on the health benefits of green tea.
For those of you that want ephedrine (though I wouldn't recommend it), just go to any hardcore gym's pro-shop and ask if they have any "under the counter" ;)
Cutting some starchy carbs from your diet will also help.

You can order epherdra online I think. I have a bottle of minithins (all epherdra) sitting in my cabinet that I havn't touched since I finished school. They were better than coffee for all-nighters but they don't make you feel so good. I can sell them to you if you want them....is that legal?
Re: Xenadrine vs. Zantrex 3 & Hydroxycut
Ummmm...the weight gain you've experienced is probably mostly due to a loss of muscle and a slight increase of fat.
Even if you only work out every other day...you NEED to rebuild up that muscle...do Pilates or Yoga from a tape...don't just take a bunch of pills. It's NOT what you need.
Re: Xenadrine vs. Zantrex 3 & Hydroxycut
I have to say I am really against diet pills. When I was a Freshmen in college. I was full-time student, worked 3 days as a Nanny, weekends at a nursing home and I was in a professional dance company. I worked out 3 hours a day. I still don't know how I did that all! But....... I started using diet pills because I gained the freshmen 15. I got it in my head that is X amount will do this then XXX amount will REALLY WORK! At first I really didn't feel sick. But it got so bad, I was like EMOTIONLESS and felt so sick all the time. If I didn't have the pills, I felt even WORST! I was really jittery and it completely changed my personality. Everything I was doing started suffering. It took me a good month to be able to get off the diet-pills. I mean the risk isn't worth it. Especailly, just for a few vanity pounds. Nothing pays off like hard work-Instead od spending your money on diet pills that can literally kill you. Maybe a trainer? Or a new exercise tape. Cut the cat and carbs in your diet. Good Luck with your weight-loss.

Yes, I agree...cats are usually not healthy for you to eat. ;)

Re: Xenadrine vs. Zantrex 3 & Hydroxycut
Well I take Hydroxycut, and I LOVE it!
I have taken it for well over a year now, and I take 3 pills a day. When I was heavier I took up to 9 pills a day (as recommended by the label) I lost a ton of weight. Now I take the pills as a supplement to my diet and workout.
I also exercise 6 days a week, and eat pretty healthy.
I wouldn't reccomend taking the pills if you aren't gunna workout with them too. I also take vitamins daily and cretine and protien shakes once a week.

Diet pills have never worked for me. Diet an exercise is key.
