Caffeine Free?

Sat, 13 Mar 2010 13:12:07 -0500

Has anyone tried the Caffeine Free SQ? I'm getting ready to start it tomorrow and want to be prepared for any side effects or excessive hunger?

Not feeling too good about this...

Sat, 13 Mar 2010 13:10:59 -0500

I started 4 days ago and have lost 3 pounds. I was excited about this UNTIL...I hear my sis in law complaining that she is fat and she needs to get her swimsuit body back. She just had a baby 4 1/2 months ago and is the same weight if not a bit smaller than she was before being pregnant. ( like 145) I weigh 209. I find it rude and annoying sometimes when she calls herself fat right in front of me. What should I do? I try to ignore it...

Does anyone else have to add a custom food to their log every day?

Thu, 11 Mar 2010 12:36:56 -0500

I log in everything I eat, but nearly every meal I have to add a custom food, ( I don't know if I just shop different or what :-) But I am hoping everyone else is doing this too and clicking the share with others users. Just wondering. Good luck to everyone

Starting tomorrow morning...

Wed, 10 Mar 2010 16:46:00 -0500

I am really excited to start tihs program tomorrow. Good luck to everyone and I welcome any inspiration and tips that can be given!

Starting SQ Pills today... Need to lose the weight fast but healthy any pointers?

Wed, 10 Mar 2010 14:37:48 -0500

Hi everyone,

I started the SQ regular blue diet pills today. I am 1 am and 1 pm right now. Any pointers on how to see results quickly but in a healthy way? Please share what has worked for you to lose the weight besides just taking the pills!

1st time with excessive hunger!

Wed, 10 Mar 2010 03:04:36 -0500

Hi, I have just started on the slim quick weight loss. Today is my second day and I have lost 1.5 pounds which I am pretty sure is a result of water loss. However, I noticed I am excessively hungry. It does not curve my appetite much! When I was working out at the gym I almost passed out due to hunger and probably low blood sugar level. After I ate a protein bar, I was fine and continued with my work out. I was wondering if anybody else has this issue? I eat around 1300-1700 calories a day, which is more than the recommended nutrient value. I also work out about 1- 2 hours a day 5x a week. Also, I only used one packet of the slim quick per day when I wake up because I am extremely sensitive to caffiene.

So excited starting today!

Tue, 09 Mar 2010 11:20:39 -0500

So far going good no symptoms, feel so much happier and much more energy!

I was just wondering if I take SQ New and Improves tablets if I need hoodia or the powdered drinks as well, it isn't very clear if I need to combine it with something else?

slimquick and paxil?

Mon, 08 Mar 2010 21:51:39 -0500

hey ladies! i just started taking slimquick today and aside from feeling a tad-bit jittery, i feel great! i was just wondering if anyone is taking anti-depressants and slimquick at the same time? i saw on the label that it isn't recommended if you've been diagnosed with an anxiety disorder, but i feel totally fine so far. Anyone have negative effects from it if you're taking medication simultaneously?

Can I copy exercises from one day to another?

Sun, 07 Mar 2010 13:06:55 -0500

Copy works so well in the nutrition tracker section. Is there a way to copy in the exercise tracker section?

first time using SQ

Sat, 06 Mar 2010 17:20:07 -0500

I jusy bought the slimquik all natural and i was wondering if i have to do the cleanse too or can i just go rite into the pills???/

time to step it up a notch

Fri, 05 Mar 2010 14:03:08 -0500

So, I started this weight loss thing towards the beginning of December, when my 5 year old told me she was too fat. Of course she's not, she's just growing up, but she must hear me saying it. I figured it was time to 1. watch my mouth more carefully, and 2. get serious about being healthy. I want to be a good example for my children. Any time I've tried losing weight I jump into diet and exercise, and get motivated, but only for a short time. This time I decided to do things a little differently.

I started with cutting out one "bad" thing after the other, and I think I'm finally where I feel ok with my diet. I eat healthy. I don't deprive myself things I want- I just find myself chanting things like "portion control, portion control, portion control" and "I have goals, remember your goals." I started taking the stairs more often (even just to go to the bathroom - I work on the top floor in my building and decided to start using the bathroom on the ground floor) and I'm walking like crazy now - I even have a date to go running with my husband tomorrow :).

I'm excited because so far, I've lost 22 pounds. But I'm starting to get a little discouraged. I seem to be in a holding pattern. I'm still eating right and exercising more frequently, but I haven't lost a pound in two weeks :(. Everybody keeps telling me "oh, well at least you haven't gained any back yet." I am appreciative that I haven't (and I'm determined not to), but I feel like I need to do something to step it up a bit.

So that's why I'm here. I'm hoping I can get some tips... and some help with walking the "straight and narrow" path to becoming a healthier me.

Help Help Help

Fri, 05 Mar 2010 13:45:38 -0500

I've been on slimquick packets for almost two weeks. I know it's supposed to help balance your hormones so i'm wondering if anyone has had any changes with their periods? I am now a week late and I don't know if the slimquick threw my body out of whack or if I could be pregnant, obviously I want to stop taking it if I am. Help if you can!

Resisting Temptation

Fri, 05 Mar 2010 11:07:52 -0500

Just wanted to share a couple things that are helping me avoid eating when I'm not really hungry. I keep a few different variety of sugar-free gum in my purse/at work; this really helps! Also, it might seem odd but my Bare Escentuals lip gloss has a carmel flavor to it so I apply that from time to time. Odd? I know...LOL. As far as the lip gloss route, I'm going to pick up some other brands with some yummy flavors. An old saying is to try and decide if you're really hungry by waiting 10 minutes or so after you're thinking about eating (aside from your 3 meals/2 snacks). It helps so far :)

help!

Fri, 05 Mar 2010 00:28:15 -0500

I listed myself as one weight, and then when i weighed myself on a new scale and it was 12 pound off ( eeek!! UGH) how do i change my weight on my dashboard??

Running.....

Thu, 04 Mar 2010 17:24:42 -0500

.... to the bathroom! I am on day 3 of the cleanse and have had a couple close calls! Will this subside or should I cut back on the number of cleansing pills? I know everyone is different. I read a few of the earlier posts and one girl said that she dealt with this for a couple days and then returned to "normal". How about you?

Posting pictures

Wed, 03 Mar 2010 16:54:46 -0500

TOTALLY OFF SQ TOPIC

Wed, 03 Mar 2010 01:51:07 -0500

does anybody kno of a good cream or something for stretch marks...my stomach is all floppy what is a good to tone it up a bit && how long do i do it for? help and thx=]

BYE Ladies!

Tue, 02 Mar 2010 18:41:43 -0500

The SlimQuick community is really great and supportive here. I really hate to leave as I am.

The first week, I used the bathroom a lot (# 1 & 2) and loved it. My appetite was curbed so I was impressed. Then I noticed no boost of energy. I began to also notice an increase of fatigue with little to no sleeping. Then week 2, the increase of 4 packets a day came. Today was so bad that I barely made it home off the road from the gym as I left early due to being weak. I have two small children, work out 4 days a week for an hour and a half doing cardio and strength. I cannot afford to have no strength shortly after taking the drink packets.

I came home and slept for about 3 hours. I woke up to a migraine. I still feel weak and fatigued but not as much as I did this morning. I ate once today so maybe that is a good thing that I am not hungry. I do not know if the pills are better for me than the Berry drink packets. I wanted to take the pills versus the drink mix but CVS were out no matter the location I went to. I have an unopen box of the drink mix and am taking them back in the morning for a refund.

I am not disappointed, I tried the drink mix and it did not work for ME. There is NO short cut to loosing weight just Diet & Exercise...lesson learned.

Best to All of You Ladies!

1st timer here!

Tue, 02 Mar 2010 16:36:52 -0500

This is my first time using slim quick and this program. How does the nutrition tracker and exercise tracker work? I'm real excited and hope this helps. I've got 15-20lbs to lose and really have a hard time staying motivated...any advise would be great...

Day one of the cleanse!

Tue, 02 Mar 2010 16:12:51 -0500

Hi... well I wasn't able to choke down the warm water/lemon today! Has anyone done the cleanse without that and did it still work? Also, I don't have a lot of the items on the food list so I will have to sub as best i can (keeping healthy decisions in mind), How much will that hurt me in my start-up?

2 Questions - Weekends & Alli

Mon, 01 Mar 2010 17:55:20 -0500

Weekends - Im really good about taking the pills while Im at work during the week but I havent been taking them on the weekends. I still eat healty. Does anyone else do this? Is it like starting over each week if I miss two days?

Second Question: Alli - This is probably a bad idea and a no brainer but I still wanna get some feed back. Would it be ok to take SQ & Alli at the same time? So far I'm liking SQ but I have also tried Alli and like that it blocks some of the fat. What do you guys think?

Eating

Mon, 01 Mar 2010 17:18:05 -0500

This morning and afternoon I ate and took the pill at the same time, I'm taking the blue box pills. Is that ok or should I be taking it before or after?

Mon, 01 Mar 2010 10:58:01 -0500

Hello, I am starting the cleanse today. I have tried everything out there so hopefully this will help me. I have been working out for about 3 months now and have only lost 5 lbs so I am hoping sq will give me the boost I need. I have my 10 year high school reunion coming up in June, so everyone knows what that means you want to look good for that. So here goes......

Tanning while on slimquick?

Mon, 01 Mar 2010 00:33:32 -0500

I know with some products they advise you stay out of the sun and tanning beds. Does anyone know if this applies to the SlimQuick weightloss caplets? Thanks for your help!

Ultra Fat Burner

Sun, 28 Feb 2010 19:53:14 -0500

I need the instructions for taking the Slimquick Ultra Fat Burner. I don't even find it as a product in the list of products but I just bought it at Walgreens and there are no instructions on how much to take!

SQ FAT BURNER DIFFERENT THAN WEIGHT LOSS

Fri, 26 Feb 2010 12:50:54 -0500

Hey all! I bought SQ Fat Burner at Walmart, yet I do not see it for sale on this website. Everyone keeps mentioning the blue pills...are the pills blue or talking about the color on the box lol? The Fat Burner has blue on the box and I was just wondering if they are the same thing as the weight loss pills that are on this website?

Proper pilling taking

Fri, 26 Feb 2010 12:09:08 -0500

Hey everyone,

Today is my first day and I'm already faced with a question. How important is the timing of taking the pills? At my job we all have set lunches that we have to take at a specific time. Mine is at 11:30am. From the time I take my pill in the morning there is only 4 hours between that and my lunch. Can I have lunch then take my pill the 2 hours later, or will I have to switch around my schedule and take the pills before lunch? Also how long should you wait before taking a pill then eating? I take my pill at 6:00am and eat directly after, should there be a waiting period?

Thanks

My daughter Broke my heart :(

Fri, 26 Feb 2010 10:15:30 -0500

My 5 year old daughter is very outspoken like her father and me and last week while I was working out she said " Mommy am I going to grow big and get fat like you!" I know she is only 5 but children tell the truth..... I had to tell her no and she said good I want to be thin like mama. I sat in my room and cried for an hour and I am trying but everybody I seem to be around is so much thinner than me and my mother even says I need to lose weight, Yeah like I didn't already know that. Sorry just needed to vent.

hard time falling asleep

Fri, 26 Feb 2010 09:39:01 -0500

Has anyone tried to take Hoodia supplement before breakfast and lunch instead of lunch and dinner? Just wondering because I think it's making it hard for me to fall asleep because I take last dose so late, like around 5pm.

this seems all wrong ???

Thu, 25 Feb 2010 18:19:49 -0500

I just started the weight loss powdered drink today and instead of it supressing my appetite i have been hungrier than i usually am! Has anyone else experienced this???

quick question

Mon, 22 Feb 2010 15:13:15 -0500

I'm a newbie...with a question....I have been stuck at a standstill after working out, seems like I am not getting the results I want. I decided to give QT a try. It seemed like everywhere I went to buy myself a btl. they were sold out. I ended up finding the Hoodia, will I have results with this the same as the weightloss one?

Anyone have a weight-loss blog on blogspot.com?

Mon, 22 Feb 2010 11:10:41 -0500

Hi everyone!
I was wondering if there is anyone out there in MySlimquick world that also blogs on blogger.com/blogspot.com. I've been blogging about my Slimquick/weight-loss journey there for about 5ish days. I would LOVE some blogs to read and some readers to give me input & support.

I'd love to follow your blog so we can give each other support and motivation when it's needed. You can find me at http://lucyschallenge.blogspot.com/.

Should I start the Cleanse when on Antibiotics for cold??

Mon, 22 Feb 2010 09:34:48 -0500

I am not sure if I should go ahead or wait.. I have had bronchitis. I figured maybe the antibiotic and a cleanse might actually do a double duty??

IMPORTANT QUESTION

Sun, 21 Feb 2010 21:36:08 -0500

Sun, 21 Feb 2010 17:01:57 -0500

Much help needed and fast. Thanks

Sat, 20 Feb 2010 12:56:35 -0500

When do we take vitamins while on the cleanse to prevent them being washed away with the cleansing?

Just Started SlimQuick Weight Loss Packets for Water

Fri, 19 Feb 2010 16:52:30 -0500

I like the taste of this so far, but if I don't see results, I'm not going to buy another box.

The SlimQuick reviews have been great from what I've read- people have lost about 6-10 pounds in the first week! I don't own a scale right now, so I'm judging by how I look. (And I should be going to the doctor in the next few weeks- so I'll see about my weight when I do go!)

I'd appreciate any advice you guys have about the SlimQuick water packets! :)

How long to wait to eat?

Fri, 19 Feb 2010 15:57:03 -0500

I just started taking the SQ Caplets today. How long do I wait to eat once taking a pill? Thanks!!

Yerba Mate in question

Fri, 12 Feb 2010 15:59:40 -0500

I was reading about yerba mate and it's possible cancerous properties. Can someone clarify the amount needed to be consumed everyday to cause cancer and the amount that is in Slimquick? This program is really working for me but this worries me as I do not intend to stop taking the caplets and hunger control if I continue to have success.

husband suport

Thu, 11 Feb 2010 15:33:25 -0500

So for the first time since i have started working out and losing weight my husband made a comment that totaly sucked away all my motavation to continue losing weight. he says "You make me feel selfcouncus now that you are working out every day, i dont know if i like it" thats all he seid then he left the house and walked to work. My husban is a thin man he has put on 15pounds since we have been together ( 6 years) bringing his total up to 185lbs so he is not fat like me so i need some advice on how to go on..

Didnt work for me, any suggestions

Wed, 10 Feb 2010 18:29:05 -0500

Okay, i tried the slimquick capsules, i finished the whole bottle, followed the eating plan, and exercised. It didnt work for me. I lost only 3lbs. Should i try the extreme? or the one with hoodia? or should i just try the caplets again?

It's my first day tomorrow ! Gotta get rid of this baby phat! Wish me luck!

Doing the 7 day cleanse starting tomorrow! Iffy about what to do after...dont want to harm myself.

Mon, 08 Feb 2010 19:08:44 -0500

So i am almost 18 years old. When i was in 8th grade i did the Slimquick Shake diet and special K cereal with it. Lost 15lbs. Now im starting the Cleanse. Everyone is saying that they go on the pill or packet after. I've read how diet pills are harmful to your body and dont want to kill myself. Are the pills safe or? I weight 148 lbs and i would like to be 125 but will settle for 130lbs. I'm 5' 6 1/2'' tall.

Pill

Sun, 07 Feb 2010 18:10:11 -0500

SQ packets with hoodia

Fri, 29 Jan 2010 20:36:26 -0500

Hi, I just started SQ packets with hoodia and I know the guide that it came with says when to take both of the products according to the meals but I wanted to know if their was times for each such as 1/2 an hour before I eat. Also, with each product it says after the first week to take two doses instead of one. Does that still apply if I take both products together?

Water

Fri, 29 Jan 2010 12:37:45 -0500

OK..This may seem like a dumb question, but I just started SQ this morning and it says that you are suppose to take the 2nd pill 6 hours after the 1st and on an empty stomache, does that mean I should eat or drink anything for 6 hours, including water?

Just started

Thu, 28 Jan 2010 21:18:32 -0500

Hi everyone,

I just started the blue box pills on Tuesday of this week...I didn't do anything else before that, like the cleansing...should I have done that or is this okay?

How often should i weigh myself?

Thu, 28 Jan 2010 18:22:58 -0500

How often do you weigh yourself? I know I dont want to weigh myself everyday, but how often should I?

made a mistake

Thu, 28 Jan 2010 11:59:43 -0500

i put on my weight tracker that i was 139 when it was suppose to be 239, How do i change the mistake? i cant seem to figure it out.

starting SQ

Thu, 28 Jan 2010 09:48:14 -0500

I am just startinf SQ now. I am confused. Do you take all the step 1 pills first and then when they are gone start taking step 2 pills, or do you take both at the same time?

Curious?

Wed, 27 Jan 2010 19:40:07 -0500

i have been reading the posts and the packaging on the sq naturals . I have been taking it for a week now and exercising eating healthy and not really sure what to expect. Should i have started with the 7 day cleanse before i started the sq natural pills?

Cleanse Question

Tue, 26 Jan 2010 17:11:17 -0500

I did the 7 day cleanse a month ago can i do it again? and if i can should i stop taking the blue pills?

stopped taking the pills

Tue, 26 Jan 2010 16:18:17 -0500

I stopped taking the weight loss pill today, for some reason they really stop me up. I am on my second bottle and did not see much progress at all. I eat healthy, drink nothing but water and I do an hour of cardio every day. I'm gonna try it without the pills for a while. When I first started to diet in September I didn't use anything and I lost 22lbs, I stopped in December for the holidays and started back in January with the pills and lost 5lbs. I think I can loose more without the help. I will stay on here and let ya'll know how I do.

High Blood Pressure

Tue, 26 Jan 2010 08:02:01 -0500

Question about the amount of pills???

Mon, 25 Jan 2010 19:24:40 -0500

I am on the first week of blue pills. I know that the package says to take 2 a day the first week, and then take 4 a day the second week and on. Has anyone tried to just continue taking the 2 a day instead??? Any problems with this? Just curious if anyone had tried this???

Help for a night shift worker?!?

Mon, 25 Jan 2010 11:24:59 -0500

Hi, I purchased the pills and read that it says to take the pills before breakfast and 6 hours later but not within 5 hours of sleeping. I work the graveyard shift at a hospital. One week I'll work Wed, Thurs 7p - 7a and the next week Mon, Tues, Fri, Sat, Sun 7p - 7a. Usually I'll sleep the afternoon before going into work. What are the effects if I take the pill close to when I sleep? What other options do I have?

GETTING READY TO START

Sat, 23 Jan 2010 21:20:04 -0500

I just had a baby about 4 months ago and have about 35 pounds to loose. A friend of mine uses just the sq hoodia of course she is already fit, so I am wondering, she gave me a bottle of the sq hoodia and I see in the booklet it can/should be used in addition to a couple other sq products. What all should i take? I don't want to take unnecessary pills but I want the best result.

what works best w sq hoodia

Sat, 23 Jan 2010 12:20:38 -0500

I've been taking sq hoodia for about a week now, not really any results maybe because I have my period and probably bloated. But was wondering what other sq product works the best with the hoodia?

Any Ideas?

Sat, 23 Jan 2010 00:29:10 -0500

So I use to be 110 pounds back in my high school days, now I'm 132, and only 5''2. Everyone tells me it will be impossible to get back to that shape,which I believe is somewhat true, I mean I did have a baby, for goodness sake! LOL. What I mean to say is I have HIPS now, I was such a tomboy back in my day *Sigh* no hips...nada. So what I was going to ask, is it possible to lose the hips? If so, what are the best exercises? Iam starting to feel a bit better since taking SlimQuick and I am really sticking to cardio, free weights 5 days out of the week. I am mainly doing it for myself, but I love my daughter, and she is only 7 mths so I want to get a jump start on my health so I can keep up with my little tigger. Well help me out pleas

Not sleepy...

Fri, 22 Jan 2010 11:31:26 -0500

Since I started the Blue SQ Pills 5 days ago I find myself not being able to sleep well at night. Prior to starting I was ready for bed and asleep by 10:30pm but this week I find myself wide awake and not tired past midnight just laying in bed. I take the 2nd pill at 1pm... anyone else having trouble sleeping?

Starting out

Fri, 22 Jan 2010 02:37:21 -0500

I just got SQ, and i'm hoping this will be the time that i will lose my wieght! I am sick and tired of being fat:[ I'm sluggish, always seem to get tired, and just to be truthful, i want a Boyfriend!! Add me if you want a new Girlfriend!

Have a question..

Thu, 21 Jan 2010 10:14:01 -0500

Yesterday I went to go get my blue pill.. and I found this blue pill that said .. extra burn fat or something like that.. i got both boxes and my regular dose is 4 pills total a day.. the extra burn box was 6 total.. a day.. Ive never seen that box before.. not even online.. has anyone seen it before.. Ive seen the extreme but not in a blue pill..

another packet/capsule question

Thu, 21 Jan 2010 09:35:21 -0500

I'm currently doing the SQ Cleanse, but I have already bought a box of packets for next week to make the switch. I noticed in the liner that it says for Week 1 to use 1 packet in the morning and 1 in the afternoon, but for Week 2 and beyond to use 2 packets in the morning and 2 in the afternoon. That's a lot of packets! (only 20 in a box, so that's only 5 days worth) Wondering if I should switch to the capsules...

When to take SQ packets? before or after meals??

Wed, 20 Jan 2010 12:20:32 -0500

The box doesnt tell you when to take the packets.. it doesnt say on an empty stomach like the rest of them, it just says morning and afternoon. so i'm thinking of taking it at 9a.m. and then another at 2 pm. does anyone else use SQ weight loss packets?

Do I really need to change my ENTIRE routine?

Wed, 20 Jan 2010 11:49:54 -0500

I had thought that I was doing pretty good, but a "friend" told me that I need to change everything! Just to give everyone an idea of my daily life. I do a aerobic based work out with exercise ball on Mon, Wed, Fri and on Tues, Thurs I go for a brisk walk. I have a really hard time jogging, mostly because of a 2.5 cm difference in the length of my legs. I use a shoe lift thingy, but sometimes it just really hurts my back. So I at least try to walk pretty fast and go a little further than I would while jogging. I don't get much exercise on the weekends because I work at a restaurant and I run around at work all day. I don't smoke, drink, or eat alot of sugar stuff. I don't really count calories, but I don't do the "3 square meals" thing either. I have five or six small meals a day and try not to eat anything after 10pm. I've even started keeping a food journal thing... But my girlfriend tells me I need to stop eating meat, count calories, and exercise for longer periods of time. So I don't really know what to do, I don't want to really worry to much about counting calories, I worry of junk like that. To the point of obsession. I want to shed a few pounds, not become super model skinny. However I will admit to one thing, Chocolate. I like to have a chocolate bar about once every other week or so...

First day - packets

Wed, 20 Jan 2010 11:23:38 -0500

are you supposed to use the whole packet in a regular bottle of water? because it says use the packet in a 16.9 fl oz water, but the average bottle os .9 fl oz - wondering if i should just use half of packet per bottle?

First day... need help

Tue, 19 Jan 2010 10:33:31 -0500

Hi All, Today is my first day using SQ and I have a question. I took my first pill at 8 this morning. It says to take the second 6 hours later on an empty stomach. Because of my busy schedule today, I need to eat lunch earlier than I normally would (less than 6 hours from the first pill) Should I take the next one a bit early (5 hours) and then eat, or eat my lunch, and take the pill later with something in my stomach?

Being diabetic (type-1)

Tue, 19 Jan 2010 09:15:26 -0500

Just wondering if there are any other ladies out there with Type-1 diabetes and struggling with weight loss. My weight has climbed over the past few years, in part because I have been keeping my blood sugar under tight control. The only problem is that sometimes I keep it so tight, that I suffer a lot of low blood sugars, which means I have to ingest a lot of empty calories (juices, candies, etc.) to bring my blood sugar back to normal. I find it very frustrating. My doctor of course wants me to lose weight, but he doesn't want me to lose control of my blood sugar either, but has no real suggestions on how to accomplish both.

May be TMI, but..

Mon, 18 Jan 2010 21:34:20 -0500

Has anyone else become gassy since starting the weight loss pills? Ever since starting the pills, I feel like I've just been stinking up the place! Could it be what I'm eating? I'm eating protein bars and lean cuisine's, and I've cut out junk food and soda. Just curious if anyone else is experiencing this too!

Not willing to give up alcohol...

Mon, 18 Jan 2010 19:17:06 -0500

I know everyone will kill me for saying this, but I'm a college student who enjoys going out on the weekends and drinking with friends. I just bought the SQ weight loss pills to lose (hopefully) 20-30 lbs and haven't started them yet because I'm apprehensive about taking anything before researching it thoroughly first... Has anyone had an adverse side effect on SQ after a night of drinking? I don't see any warning on the box/bottle that says to stay away from alcohol while taking the supplement, so aside from it being a weight loss deterrent, can I still drink while on SQ?

Newbie! here we go!

Mon, 18 Jan 2010 13:40:15 -0500

Anyone needing a new girl friend please toss me an invite, i plan to take this all the way, and have a good attitude doing it! wish me luck, and luck to all you ladies also.

Help - Started Cleanse Today

Mon, 18 Jan 2010 09:47:11 -0500

Okay, I changed my diet and excercise last Monday. I just ran out and purchased the cleanse and took the 1st dose right now. What should I expect? I am at work so now I'm worried about any reactions (constant bathroom trips) I work on a construction site and am the lucky person to be the only female here. Are there any bad side effects?

1st time calorie counting question

Sun, 17 Jan 2010 23:03:54 -0500

I've never counted calories before, just fat/cholesterol. I entered my nutrition data and have found that I don't get nearly as many calories as I thought or that I think I should! I eat tons of veggies, little or no red meat, whole wheat pastas, and don't use butter and other sneaky fat substances. Should I eat more to get adequate calories or continue eating the healthy foods I've been eating? This is the first time I've tried dieting so I don't know what's appropriate. Thanks for any advice!

Is cleans necessary??

Sun, 17 Jan 2010 17:41:58 -0500

Today i bought the blue pills and the hoodia. I always eat quite healthy and wondering if it really important to do the cleans?

Cleanse Capsule Question

Sat, 16 Jan 2010 22:06:13 -0500

Hi, so I just started the cleanse... I took my four capsules at 11 am before lunch. Drank tons of water but it just felt as if the capsules just sat at the top of my rib cage and made me feel like I was going to get sick. I just drank and drank, but no change. At 6 pm I couldn't take it anymore and got sick. all four capsules were still intact.......they didn't dissolve (sorry for tmi) but would it be okay to break open the capsules and mix in water or apple sauce??

sleep?

Sat, 16 Jan 2010 15:48:11 -0500

Is anyone else having trouble falling asleep??? Ive always been asleep and well into my 12th dream by 11pm the latest, but ever since starting slimquick i stay up until almost 2 am tossing and turning. the box warns not to take the second dose 5 hours before sleeping but I take the second dose around 2 - 2:30pm, thats 7 hours before getting to bed. Is any one else having problems with this???

7 day cleanser Q

Sat, 16 Jan 2010 03:46:49 -0500

HI okay im just finishing up day 2 of the blue pills im not sure why i didnt look at this site befor i started but the walmart i live by only sells the blue box pills only. and when i came to the site it said i could order the 7day cleanser and it looked like it would work. i just had a baby 9w ago and after the stuff i ate: sugar, fat, processed not one healthy thing (gained 60pds) i could use a good cleansing. would it be okay to switch? does it help get things on track easier then just starting with the blue pills? if i switch should i wait a few days? thanks!
