I started taking Slimquick a few weeks ago, and I’ve been sticking to the dosage schedule for the most part (I’m not overweight, but I am trying to lose a few pounds for summer). However, I’ve had a really strange side effect from them: I’ve had my period every other week. I don’t know if it’s the slimquick or the birth control pills I’m on, but I’ve been taking BC (progestin only) for years and haven’t had my period all that much, and now I’ve literally had it three times since April 18, 2013 (it’s been less than a month). There’s also a history of endometriosis in my family, so that could be it… But I’m going to blame the estrogen complex that these pills claim to have… ugh

I’m on day 4 and I was admitted to the hospital earlier…. I drank plenty of water and excersied…. But my body is rejecting it my doctor said its meant to give I the same kind of boost meth would so when u crash, because eventually will… It’s going to be bad, and I also have a uti now cuz it’s to strong for my regular flushing of my kidneys… This was my first time and I’m done with slim quick or diet pills in general
[Reply]
Update:
Started slimquick a few says ago, and I’m not noticing anything change. I don’t have any symptoms, nor do I feel energized or have any loss of appetite. I’m losing weight, but then again I use an elliptical and lift weights daily while cutting my calories by over 1000. Either things will change when I up my dosage next week or I’m completely un-affected by the ingredients in slimquick.

Hello their, just wanted to tell you that if you use
SLIM FAST ant use WATER not milk, you will shed off the weight, but you need to use the vanilla flavor NOT chocolate flavor.
[Reply]
I just started the Slimquick pills, I am also working out 6 days a week. I gained weight from a months worth of medication. Now that I am off the meds, I hope this helps curb the appetite… I already have age going against me, being I am 50..
[Reply]
Not sure how to put this, but maybe you could try the Slim Fast mix, but you would need to get the vanilla flavor, not the chocolate one. And use water, not milk. that is the key.

I’m 18, on birth control, and was wondering if anyone else out there also takes Slimquick and birth control.

I just start taking this slimquick 2 weeks ago it really work I never get hungry and no exercise .but one thing I really worry is I had a terrible headaches so I dont know if I contenue this product I use the powder one or maybe I well change the capsul
[Reply]
I am 22 and just started taking the slimquick pills 2 days ago. it has curved my appetite already. I do not have any mood swings or any weird side effects yet. I was just curious as to what kinds of exercises would work best with the product as I have a full time job with a lot of overtime (like most ppl). but I dont realy have the option of going to the gym or anything like that. my job is not very active and im not realy sure where to start with exercises, any suggestions? thanks
[Reply]
I’m 25 and super short so every pound shows. I’m 5′ and have a horrible metabolism. I changed my diet, exercise three times a week along with taking the powdered slimquick and it DOES work. I actually have grown to the taste over time but I stress EXCERISING and a severe diet change along with drinking water. Kiss all fast food goodbye, I mean everything on that menu. If you need caffeine I drink several types of yogi tea in place of coffee clutching. The more water you drink the faster it flushes through your system. I have gone from 146 to 138 in three weeks. Hope this helps.
[Reply]
I am using the caffeine free version of slim quick because if you read the box, it says not to consume caffeinated beverages with the pills. And I am not willing to give up my morning coffee or afternoon tea, plus I don’t like the dizziness excess caffeine causes in me.
I have taken the pills as directed for a week now and have noticed a few things. First of all, these pills are a diuretic so for the first couple days, you will be running to and from the washroom to pee (all your excess water is being excreted). It is very important during this time to consume lots of water so you don’t become severely dehydrated. You will notice a significant weight loss in the 1st couple days….this is water weight (I lost about 3 pounds of water weight).
The 2nd thing I noticed was these pills tend to supress your appetite. Not a bad thing in my opinion. But I did have some trouble actually consuming meals a couple times because even looking at the food in front of me made me feel ill. It’s a strange feeling when you take one bite of dinner and feel full.
I have been working out everyday and have noticed a difference in how my pants fit already. I feel like I may have been going really hard at the gym though, so I am not sure if it’s the amount I’ve been working out, or if the pills have been helping too.
Either way, I will likely continue to take the pills because I like the fact they suppress my appetite and with exercise I should be down to my goal weight in a few months (I only have about 15 pounds to lose).

This is my second week and I am now taking 2 pills (4)for breakfast and lunch. I am also experiencing gas and nausea.

Are stomach issues a common side effect? Can one take these with prozak?

hi im 17 about to be 18 on the 28th of this month of feb and i was wondering if slimquick is safe for me to try because of the fact i am a young girl please respond any one who has had good results
[Reply]
dont take this if you’re that young. if you work out, you will lose weight quick from being so young. Im young too and i realised i didnt need it after working out as a jumpstart. you’re still growing and developing until about 22 years old and you dont want anything to ruin that.
[Reply]
I’ve been taking it for 2 weeks now… OMG! I am now the meanest person EVER! I cannot believe the mood swings this stuff causes! Yes, It reduces my appetite, But It makes me hate everything and everyone I’ve never been this way in my life, Ive just came to realize this today.. Now I need to stop taking them.
[Reply]
I’ve been taking slim quick for 3 days now. It has really curbed my apetite and cravings which is my biggest issue! BUT I am so mean and grumpy. I don’t know if I am mean because I am going longer period of times with out eating or what, but I did notice yesterday and when I did eat, I turned normal again. I am going to have to keep an eye on this. I am more mean in the morning than in the afternoon….weird.
[Reply]
i started taking slimquick the powder you put in water and the first day i began feeling dizzy, headache, and like vomiting
[Reply]
I’m 19, and I’m interested in taking this. But I’m worried about the side affects I may have. I also like to build muscle and I wonder if this pill will affect my muscle tone. I weigh close to 160 at 5’2″, my ideal weight I’d like to get to is 120. I’ve lost weight before, (but it took a while). What interested me about this product is that it is supposed to work FAST. I tend to be a little impatient with my weight loss.
[Reply]
used it before. followed the instructions to the roots. i lost 50 pound in 6 months. keep the wait off untill i got pregnant. i would recommend it someone working out and eating right. it not a solution, just aiding you to get there………
[Reply]
I’m considering using slimquick. I am 21 years old and I have multiple sclerosis. I take a daily injection every day. Would it be safe for me to try or should I just talk to my doctor about it?
[Reply]
Good grief, wouldn’t speaking with your doctor be safer than asking on here?
Good luck.
[Reply]
I have used this product before with no side affects and didn’t really monitor my progress. I started using it again on Nov.19 and this time I’m watching what I eat and going to the gym for an hour EVERYDAY. I am 25 and my weight right now is 214.4. 3 years ago I was 140, I went through 3 miscarriages and it just really made me depressed. I am trying to get back to at least 150 for the sake of my health. I works full time, with slimquick I notice I have ALOT of energy to go to the gym at night. And also I am not as hungry as before.

I am a Breast cancer survivor of 3 years is it safe for me to use this? I take Anastrozole
[Reply]
Can I use this with birth control pills?
[Reply]
There’s an ingredient in it that reduces the effectiveness of some birth controls
[Reply]
This one is actually disproven, it won’t get in the way of your birth control I asked my doctor about it
[Reply]
i am 29and i also just got the caffeine free w/ acia berry in it but not sure if it’s ok to take w/ my arthritis meds
[Reply]
I’ve been taking slim quick for about a week, I haven’t weighed myself yet. In the past couple of days I have had some crazy mood swings, Hot flashes, I cried for almost a full day, I actually had to take the day off work because I didnt think I’d make it thru the day with out crying on someone. IM not sure of what exactly is in this stuff (ingrediants read like a foreign lang to me) but I do not recommend this to anyone that is not use to being a full fledged woman.
[Reply]
I am 44 and trying slimquick for the first time. Have no health issues. Got the caffeine free version because I tend to be somewhat sensitive to cafffiene, hopefully it’ll work the same. Has anybody tried it?
[Reply]
I have taken it for 2 weeks now. It worked for me so far, lost a little weight and not feeling hungry all the time like I use to. I dont excercise but I watch what I eat!! Hope this helps!
[Reply]
I am trying Slimquick for the first time and will be happy to comment back on my results.
[Reply]
I squeezed into sz 14 jeans when I started taking Slim Quick (in bottled water). After about two months I slide easily into sz 12. Taste is fine, sometimes I add cranberry juice. I feel great! Stopped “wolfing down” my food too. This product is really, really good. I am 62 with no health issues.
[Reply]
Hi, i got the orignal slimquick and was wondering is it ok to take that and Vitamin B 12 pills?
[Reply]
I came on here to see what others using the product had to say, because I just recently started using it. I’m 24, and have been on for about a week. I am extremely anxious, and nervous for seemingly no reason, and wanted to see if it could be the product or not. But, now that I know it is, I’m not so anxious and I feel better!
[Reply]
It DOES work but you also need to work on a healthy diet. You can’t do this and expect results if you are not 100% committed. You have to eat right & exercise too. This product just helps amplify your results and if you are impatient like me it gets the changes you want FAST. But the Key is to stick with a healthy routine. Do not depend on this or any other diet supplement. Stick to a healthy lifestyle! Also, has anyone noticed that this product(THE POWDER PRODUCT – NOT THE PILLS) ruins water bottles? It like eats away at the plastic and creates mold! It’s happened to 3 of my bottles so far. Unfortunately the first bottle was a really nice one so WARNING TO ALL: do not put this product in a nice bottle..use cheep plastic ones!
[Reply]
I’m 28 and this is my first time using SlimQuick. I have to say that with this being the 3rd week i feel great. it has decreased my cravings and i notice i am having to force myself to eat at times. along with the pill i am eating a low calorie diet and excerise. if you log onto the website it gives you a 14 day meal plan along with a shopping list and different workouts to try. i advise everyone to use the meal plan.

I’m 19 and on asthma and alleryg meds can I still take this?

I would like to know peoples ages when taking this tablet. I am almost 23 and I am trying to loose 50 pounds. Ive only been taking it for a day and I keep reading reviews but no one is saying how old they are.
[Reply]

After the 2nd week every one was telling me that i look like im loseing weight.. Now i juwt orderd a bottle because summer is almost here and imma be a beach baby
.. gud luck
[Reply]
I am returning to slimquick after two years without, and much less exercise, I have put on 30lbs. In the past, I used the slimquick for a year and got into the best “shape” of my life. If felt great, at 42, to look better than ever in my life. With a very stressful job, it seemed to help keep my emotions in check and improve my focus. However, those may have improved from the confidence gained, and stress decreased, from losing weight. I am anxious to be able to put on anything in my closet and know it will be comfortable again.
[Reply]
Its not a miracle fix for weight loss that’s for sure. Its designed to be an AID which is why I think there’s misconception about the product.
They advertise it to be used with a healthy diet and exercise which one should do regardless if they are attempting weight loss.
Yes it works very well. But don’t expect it to work without a proper diet and exercise!

I take 7 meds for the following breast cancer(1 yr cancer free but take med for it),blood pressure, thyroid,and arthris. Is it safe to take this med.
[Reply]
NO the product is not safe to take with those meds….especilly the thyroid med.
[Reply]
why can you take it with thyroid meds?
[Reply]
I’ve been using SlimQuick for about 3 months. It has decreased my cravings, which is huge for me. I’m a serious snacker. I have also reduced my water retention. Since I’ve been taking this product, I’ve lost about 10 pounds, but I can’t give this product all the credit. I work out 4 days a week and have been doing so, on average, for years. One thing I will say is that it has allowed me to maintain my workouts to 4 every week. My workouts use to be a bit chaotic and could range from 2 to 5 days a week. I recently recommended SlimQuick to a friend.
[Reply]
ive been taking slimquick for…2 weeks now and ive lost about 6 or 7 pounds, i havent noticed any side effects, i play volleyball 3x a week too and try to work out & eat right but i normally do that anyways but with slimquick the weight has been coming off i recommend it
[Reply]
I took slimquick for about 3 months, and I absolutely lost weight.
However, I was edgy and ended up very moody and acting out of character. I felt like I couldn’t control my reactions and they were constantly disproportionate. My husband asked me to stop taking them for a week to see if it helped the mood swings and they stopped almost immediately. I threw the rest of my bottle out and am looking for a new way to lose weight without the side effects.
[Reply]
HI Mary, I also lost weight right out of the gate with this but also experienced the same moodiness… Switched back to Ripped Fuel 5X, NO side effects and does work.. $19 at walmart

I bought them and tryed them and all I can say is save your money !

I’ve been using it for a little over a month, I haven’t had any noticeable results

bought the regular pills and the cleanse. did regular diet and worked out. after taking the pills I would burp up the most terrible taste, and the water mix was terrible as well. it felt like a waste of money and they dont seem to understand a womans body unless she is in her 40s
[Reply]
I weighed 169 in Jan 09, and I was going on a cruise in May 09, so I was looking for a little help to shed off the extra lbs. Well I lost got down to 159 myself with diet and exercise, but I have always had a hard time getting below 155. Well I took the Slimquick that you put in your water bottle for 2 months, and I got down to 140 which was basically 30lbs which was a miracle to me. But I have to say it does not taste great, and once I got back from the cruise and disontinued use I am back to 169. So I reccomend this stricly for special occasions ie wedding, cruise, etc
[Reply]
did u continue eating the ryt things and exercising after getting to 140?? i do not think you would have gained more weight if u did
[Reply]
is there a better alternative?
