JESSIE: i have tried slimquick back in 2006 and part of 2007 i weighed in at 210 pounds and im 5`7, i did excercise but only 20 to 30 min a day, cut out most carbs and i went down to 145pds,was a size 16 went into a size 8,within about 4 mths, i love this stuff and because i drink alot of caffine i had no jitters or anything, this really works!!! i am a very skeptical person and will only use slimquick,because i have seen the results!!
soniak: Have you tried other diet pills that didn't work? I have and I have wasted a lot of money.
Ally: I tried it for about 2 weeks and it made me very jittery and extremely stressed. I was on edge all the time. It curbed my cravings and I think i lost about 3 lbs. within those 2 weeks but the way I felt was not worth it at all.
Dina: i just wanted to not that i take the slim quick along with SLIM SHOTS! So far it is working im 215 pounds! I just started this on monday so i hope this works! i ate a salad for lunch and got full. i also find myself drinking lots of water instead of soda! And i love my soda! So i guess it guess me my caffeine without having to drink the soda!!!!
LISA : WHAT WORKS FOR ONE MAY NOT WORK FOR YOU..SO ITS BEST TO FIND OUT WHAT WORKS FOR YOU.
Nicole: I have used a lot of different diet pills over the years, it all started when I needed to loose 15 pounds for my wedding in 2005. I started taking slimQuick and loss 20 pounds in about 2 1/2 months! It worked for me, I carry my weight all around my belly area and i'm only 5 feet tall. For the price and what I need to accomplish it works best for me. I cut out card and sugar and started walking on the track for 30 minutes every morning. I'm a sexy Mama again and I haven't felt this hot in years!
Shannon: I tried this and didn't lose a thing. I had no side effects...but I may as well saved my money and taken a vitamin.
Erin: I started this 10 days ago, and I haven't changed my normal routine which did include walking for 20 minutes 3 times per week... However, because of the pills, I've lost 8 pounds already, and it's helped me kick my craving for soda and start craving water. It works really well for me!
l'nesha: i just bought it today i hope it works!!!! im 367 wow
Sonia: I just bought it today and i hope that i can lose my whight plus im 180 pounds so i hope to the acces poundage on my body.
Nicolle: I brought the product yesterday and I took one as soon as brought them. I had my second child recently and I am heavier than what I am use to. I don't know if it is suppose to make you go # 2 but it has done that to me. So I am hoping that's what suppose to happen.... Let's see if it works.
CJ: I don't remember reading in the lit for SLIMQUICK that 1 pill has the caffeine of 4 cups of coffee!! Does this sound HEALTHY to anyone? Note, I NEVER took a pill after 12:30 in the afternoon; I took one around 5:30 - 6 a.m with a bottle of water, and 2nd one 6 hrs later. By the end of the first week, I couldn't sleep more than 3-4 hrs a night and it was restless. I only lost 2 lbs, and had consumed 28 cups worth of caffeine! I started this week's dosage of 2 tabs at a time so that's 32 cups of coffee in 2 days!! While I was tossing around last night, I realized what it was, because nothing else is going on that would interrupt my precious sleep!!! Now I'm in Detox mode, very jittery and irritable, since I didn’t take it today and I’m coming down from my caffeine high. I took Tylenol PM last night to sleep and it took 2 hrs to kick in. SLIMQUICK says "limit the use of caffeine containing products while taking this", but they should say take NONE!!!! I drank 3 cokes last week, so I probably drank about 35 cups of coffee!!! That caffeine fact should NOT be in small print. That should be at the top of the bottle, right above the dosage, not hidden in the journal they give you for directions!!! I wouldn't recommend this product to ANYONE!!!
Stephanie: I started taking slim quick a while back and lost 3 pounds in a week in a half. My problem is I can not stick with diets. I believe slim quick does work.
Marie: I started slimquick about 3 weeks ago and i love that i am not soo tired any more.. I havent lost any weight yet but i going to stick to it.. I love that it cuts my craving for soda. I drink and drink lots a water all day cant seem to get rid of my thirst and I live in the bathroom from peeing every hour lol.. but i love that it makes me more aware of my hunger and has helped me cut back and fill fuller. The cons getting bloated at the end of the day and a having a little bit of gas. I will try for another month and see what happens.
Lyn: I have been using the product for a few days now. I'm sensitive to caffeine so I take just one pill a day. I love how this product curbs my appetite (and I'm a snack queen).
Brittany: I've been doing the southbeach diet. when I'm 5'1" and weighed 208. After 2 weeks of the southbeach I wanted to kick it up a bit so I bought Slimquick. Its been a week since I've started takeing it and I'm at 194. I'm dieting but no exercise. I'm going to start that when the basement dries up.lol. we'll see how it goes...
LaQuita: I bought it today. I really hope it works.

Kristin: Hi everyone! I tried Slimquick in 2005, started in April... ate properly, walked an hour 5 days a week. I lost about 25 pounds by July. I was surprised as I have tried all the other things... I recently, in the last few months, tried it again... I was disappointed because they have changed the product... It worked better before, bring the old Slimquick back... there was nothing wrong with it!
ney: I love this pills slimquick was my solution for ME
amber: I started taking slimquick about 3 weeks ago i havent weighted myself but people have been telling me it looks like i have lost some weight...It has on the other hand been giving me the jitters but Ive been ignoring it even though it makes me really uncomfortable.
kristi: I took my first pill today and WOW the shakes it gave me! Felt like I had just downed 4 cups of espresso. Not sure if I like the feeling or what it will do health-wise long term. Certainly not taking more than one pill a day a day and I weigh 274 lbs!
Dee: I am on day 2 of taking slimquick powder. It has stop my craving but I don't know if it has too much caffeine? It gave me a headache yesterday and makes me feel weird, kind of like if you drink a beer and your barely getting a buzz and your body feels numb. That feeling. I thought maybe because I wasn’t eating as much. I know any time you start a diet the first week is hard and your stomach isn’t use to eating as much and you end up getting a headache. @ least with my experience with dieting. But I just finish another bottle of water mixed with slimquick and I feel a headache coming on again. I don’t know if it’s because of the caffeine anyone else get a headache from this stuff or feel numb? The powder is too much for a 16oz bottle so I decided today that I will use one powder for two bottles and that will be my daily consumption because it's just too much caffeine. I already drink lots of water and don't think soda so I'm not use to the caffeine. It does give you energy but I have a sit down desk job so I think I feel like I need to get up and go but can’t since I’m @ work. I think I need to walk it off so I won’t feel this way.
Courtni: I am on my first day, and I too have experienced headaches after drinking the powder. I'm not a coffee drinker nor soda drinker, so I guess my body has to get used to the caffeine as well. I'm also wondering when it is suppose to curb my appetite because I still have cravings. I've been drinking lots of water, but of course I go bathroom every hour on the hour, so the water doesn't keep me full. Any suggestions on how to curb the cravings?
Felisha: I bought Slimquick yesterday and started it today! I am hoping that it works!!! I am 20 years old and I weigh 220 pounds! Thats way to much! After the birth of my little girl I could not lose the weight! I feel terrible about myself and I want to look and feel good about myself again! I want to do it for my husband, my daughter and for ME!!
bekkah: I started taking SlimQuick today and it made me really jittery and nauseous (however the nausea went away in about a half hour). I am getting married next month and the stress of the wedding has caused me to put on a few pounds over the last few months. I am 5'6, 133 lbs, 23 years old... I know I am not that big, but I am not at my comfortable weight, so I thought I would give it a try! I will let you know later on if it worked. I only have one month til the big day!! Hope this works!
Cindy: I'm 45 years old and my fifth child will be turning three in nov.08. I experienced ppcm six weeks after her birth was on heart meds for a year. which messed up the thyroid. I've been off meds for over a year but can't shake the pounds. I'm at 165 at 5'5' all around my waist, I tried slimquick for a month and lost eight pounds. didn't have the money for the second months supply and put it back on. I'm trying again . Think it's safe for me?
Brittany: I just bought Slimquick tonight and will be starting to take the probably after the weekend. I've always felt bad about how I look. I feel ashamed. I'd like to take off 20 lbs, maybe morebut 20 lbs is my goal at the moment. Hopefully Slimquick will work for me.
denisse: hi! i bought a slimquick hooda but i have no idea how to start in my program say: 3 release caplets before lunch and dinner but here (internet) say one on breakfast, lunch and dinner please i wanna loose weight help me
Becky: it's great if you can tolerate a load of caffeine...I took one pill a day, and EARLY in the day at that and did some moderate exercise and ate balanced meals and cut out soda and coffee...but I think it did help
kai: i'm in a friendly weight loss competition with some of the women in my family and completed the 7 day SlimQuick cleanse this past Saturday. I started at 212.5 and by the end of the detox was 204. I don't know if that says more about the product or about my need to stop eating garbage. Labor Day sort of messed me up. I started the SlimQuick Extreme, and it eases you into the regular dosage (days 1-2, 1pill BID, days 3-4 2 pills BID, 4-all after 3BID). I felt a little icky this morning after starting the 2 pills in the AM thing, but it passed. I'm sticking to a mostly fish, chicken and green veggies diet, subbing a protein shake for my between-meals (FYI, mixed berry flavor Pro Performance brand from GNC is the tastiest i've found). I'm refilling one of the giant bottles of smartwater a few times a day and when i get tired of water I drink different flavored green teas for variety. i hate green tea. I'm also working out for an hour every-other-day and cardio for a half an hour between days. (sundays off). I have had no adverse effects thus far. The caffeine isn't an issue for me either. The Extreme diet plan enclosed says that you can combine it with the Hoodia, but my guy at GNC says he's been getting a lot of returns on that because it makes ladies feel sick, so I haven't tried. There's also a sample of the drink mix in every box I guess, but I haven't tried that either. I figure I'm already drinking two shakes of some sort per day, and despite it all I still love food and would rather eat than drink my diet any day. Again, different things work for different people, but SlimQuick always tells you that part of the plan is working out and eating right. You can't try the stuff for a week then decide it doesn't work for you. Anything worth doing takes time and work. 200lbs and counting... Hope this helps and good luck to everyone! Cheers!
