Hydroxycut+100%Whey

I've been taking Hydroxycut hardcore for about 3 weeks now. The recommended dosage is 3 pills 2times a day. I only take 3 pills once a day. I get really light headed and start feeling high when I'm on it. Is this normal?

I also started using 100%Whey shakes yesterday and when i mix the two, I feel even more sick. Has anyone else experienced this?

to tell you the truth, i have no idea what im doing.

my diet is not regulated and i feel very shameful even posting on this forum.. for example yesterday's meals consisted of:
morning - 3eggs, turkey, cheese on toast
evening - 4mcnuggets, mcchicken sandwitch
night - yellow rice, strip of beef, cocktail weenies and other junk

before taking hydroxycut, i weighed about 170lbs. now I weigh about 154lbs. I weight train almost every other day (no more than 2 days without going to the gym). I'm 20 yrs old, 5'10''.

before you go looking into supplements that you're not familiar about, get your diet and training on track then consider supplements

This is the beauty of neurostimulators.

Enjoy it while you still have a low tolerance.







Seriously.

Yeah, you will.

Personally, I like the feeling alot. I wish I could go back to the days where one serving of "fat burner" pills would put me on top of the world.

I'm too much of a wimp to take the much needed break from stimulants to try to get my low tolerance back.

are you using the smith for squats?

you dont need to answer that if you dont want to. this thread is getting really off topic and isnt that advised against on web forums? im sure my routine sucks. i try my best not to look like an idiot at the gym and do everything with good form and whatnot. i just never had formal instruction on what to do. i just do what i see other people do and what i feel is necessary to workout as many muscles as possible

We all started somewhere. Your desirel to change is enough to gain our respect.

Listen to getfit, she didn't just wake up one morning looking the way she does.

Anyone reading his claims on the site might be skeptical, but he certainly puts all he has into them in terms of quality and customer service.
