I have been taking it for 6 days now, and I have lost about 6-7 pounds. I have only exercised 3 out of the 6 days, but I wouldn’t have exercised at all if it wasn’t for the energy it gave me.

If you do get any side effects, obviously you should quit taking it. They made my mom too shaky so she couldn’t take them anymore. I’m not as sensitive to it so they didn’t really make me shaky. So that goes to show it will affect everyone differently. The most important thing to remember is to drink water continuously, because if you don’t, you could POSSIBLY get dehydrated. I didn’t read the part of the label that says to drink at least 2 liters of water a day or something like that, so after the first 3 days I started getting headaches and dizzy. I read the label and immediately starting carrying a water bottle around with me, and the next morning the symptoms went away.

Another thing you should remember is that since it makes you forget to eat as much, when you do eat, eat healthy food. I personally have not had any other caffeine other than what is already in SX so I couldn’t comment on that but I would think it’s not a good idea to drink soft drinks or coffee or anything considering SX has lots of caffeine in it. So in conclusion: I have obtained weight loss, have normal amount of energy (but I also have low blood and my doctor says that’s why it doesn’t make me wired like some people) and I haven’t experienced any over bearing side effects. I plan on taking it for a month, breaking for a couple weeks, and trying it again. Or if I’m happy with my results after a month, I might not ever take it again.

Why? Because their products SUCK! This product delivers RESULTS! Started taking the product in June of 2009 and went from a size 38 waist to a now amazingly size 31 inch waist. Been a 31 since like October, I have kept the weight off, still feel great, and STILL TAKING IT. Thank God I had bought a bunch of bottles before it was taken off the market. My wife has lost tons of weight as well, she had a baby last December 2008 and started using the product July 2009 and is already lost all the weight and even more. Still feels great, looks great, and we are both perfectly healthy. NO SIDE EFFECTS AT ALL!!! Except for maybe a few sleepless nights here and there, but still bursting with energy and focus.

Editor’s comments: Brandon, it is alleged that this product was contaminated with a sibutramine-related chemical. Since sibutramine is a weight loss drug, this might very well explain why this product works so well, because otherwise, there really isn’t a whole lot that differentiates this product from the others on the market. Second, sibutramine is not an illegal drug (although it is illegal to be present in a supplement like this) and as such, would not have been included in any drug screen you may have undergone. Last, complaints from competitors have nothing to do with the recalling of a product – a simple lab test will confirm or deny the presence of any substance – if the FDA finds evidence of something it shouldn’t, that’s when a company runs into trouble.

I have Fibromyalgia with an extreme case of energy loss which in itself will also cause depression. Anyway, this product did more than just help me lose wieght, it even helped with my stomach staying bloated… that even went away.

I began to feel good and it also gave me my energy back, I didnt feel jittery or nervous, and I kept eating what I wanted. When people started commenting on me looking smaller I began to take notice of it. I went in my closet and got back into clothes I was wearing when my husband & I were dating!!

We’ve been together for 7 years. I weighed 146 lbs and I had never wieghed so much in my life! At 19 yrs old I weighed 124 lbs. when my 1st child was born. I was used to weighing 110 – 112 lbs. or so.

I called the consumer # thats on the box and they are getting together proof that it does not contain drugs and other bad things. The product is all natural and we finally had something that really does what it promise, and because it was so good it gets taken off the market and has to show proof of ingredients, etc. and show proof to those that make the same claims but cant deliver what their product promises.

It’s one of the only few things that really does cause weight loss without bad side effects or at least for me it did. I’ve never used such a wonderful product that delivered on all its promises and I am very very grateful it WORKS!! It really is a great product & they need to hurry and put it back on the market!!!
so i can finish with my weight loss program!

A Very Satified Customer, Laura Thompson

Editor’s comments: Laura, we’re glad you’re happy with Slim Xtreme. However, there’s a few things in your statement that are completely not true; Slim Xtreme was not recalled because it was TOO effective; in fact the retailer cannot even present clinical proof that it does what they claim.

It was recalled because it is alleged to be contaminated, possibly with prescription drugs. If this were true, it would explain why Slim Xtreme appears to be more effective than their competitor’s products, to whom they are not obliged to prove anything. While this may be seem inconceivable to you, we assure you that less than scrupulous supplement companies spike their products with drugs on a regular basis. This is neither safe, nor legal, nor is such a practice representitive of a customer-based company.

I am up to 3 pills a day now. The effects are not what they used to be. I am thinking I need a break from them to get that effect back.

My mood has changed recently. I get angry easier than before and enjoy different things than what I used to. Now that it is off of the market, I will try and find something similar.

Main point is it that it was perfect for the first month, but now it doesn’t have the same effects.
