    Default Slim Extreme doesn't seem to work for me!

    Share |
    Hi,

    I'm on my 6th day with SX and I can't really say that I'm feeling anthing. For the last 5 days I took one capsules and ramped it up to 2 this morning. I don't even feel different from yesterday.

    I had problems sleeping the first two days and I think my appetite was supressed because I had very lttle food during the first 2 days. But other than that I don't feel energy, enhanced mood or anything like that. Yesterday I my mood was actually pretty much down and I felt anxious and restless.

    I have no history of being a caffeine junky and I don't even drink coffee, just over last two or three months I had some regular caffeine on and off from MAN Scorch and caffeine pills a few weeks later.

    I have the feeling that I might be heavily stim resitant because I need to dose Superpump pretty high or otherwise it won't do much for me except for the pumps.

    Is it possible that my antihistamine (cetirizine) somehow blocks SX?

    I started with Bio Forge two days after SX, which is roughly the time that I realised that SX doesn't give me all its alleged effects. I can't really say what exactly I felt for the first two days but definitely not some noticeable energy and mood enhancement.

    These are my other supps:
    Bio Forge
    Beta-Alanine
    Glutamine
    Sizeon (workout days)
    Superpump (workout days)
    Multi vitamins + minerals etc

    What should I do? Go along and see what happens? Try 3 caps?

    Thanks for any help!

    Hey fish, thanks for the questions. In all of the above, I read that you did have trouble sleeping the first 2 days and that you didn't eat much. To be honest with you, that right there is SX working. Comparing it to Superpump isn't a fair comparison - apples to oranges. Though they may both be classified as "stimulants", they are entirely different in the way they act and feel to you. A caffeine rush gets you all energized and going berzerk. Is that what you were expecting from SX? It doesn't do that. If you were up all day long, had no real inclination to take a nap during the day, and were even up later at night and had trouble going to be at your normal time, then that's SX doing what it does - keeping you up. It's clean, very very very very clean. A good stim is one that you don't notice working, and that does ring true here. Just because you weren't energized to the point of separating into molecules and exploding doesn't mean that it wasn't working - it means your expectations were different from the actual results. If you didn't eat much, and you didn't feel the need to eat, then there you have it. SX was working, and perhaps you didn't realize it.

    Thanks for your reply!

    It's just that I have read all those fantastic reports of SX and its ability to enhance mood and energy to a level that you can feel.

    Others say that SX had kept them up for two straight days or that two caps would make them so nervous and jittery that they had to drop the dose back to one cap.

    Even at the two caps I took today I didn't feel anything special and not different from yesterday, and I bet at three caps it would be the same.

    I've kind of stuffed myself today (good food), there was definitely no appetite suppressing going on...

    Don't get me wrong - I want to believe that SX works the way everybody says, but I just can't see that right now. That is pretty disappointing for me since I had really hoped to feel as good as all those reviewers...

    You have to consider that each of us is different. My normal dose is 2/day, and I just stopped it Friday after about 3 months of use. With regular StimX, I can handle probably 4/day with no troubles. More than 2 SX keeps me up much longer than any normal person should be. For others, 1 cap does what 2 does for me, or perhaps what 3 did in more rare cases of insensitivity.

    You mention about people feeling the "jitters" or "anxiety". That's not a good thing!!! If you took SX expecting to feel that and you didn't, then that IS a good thing. Those descriptions are not what SX is all about, and those who do/did experience such things didn't have a good experience. It's like complaining that you didn't get bad side effects...kinda sounds off to me. (Thinking to myself, "Yeah, I took Alli but didn't leak from my ass. Guess it didn't work!")

    Mood enhancement isn't a primary function of SX. Those who experienced it, well...good for them. Me? I'm grumpy most of the time anyway and it really didn't make me feel like running through a pasture of daises singing to myself.

    At this point, if you really feel the need to experience something bad in order to know it did something, pop 3. I very very heavily warn you not to do it, but if that's what it will take to convince you it is working, then I can't stop you from trying. If you're like the vast majority who mistakenly took all 3 at once in their sample pack, you'll have plenty of time to ponder the actual "feel" and effectiveness of SX.

    In the stim world, there's sprints and there's marathons.... (yup...ending on a metaphor...)

    I think you needed to read the product information more closely as then you would of realised that if you looking for something jittery then this is not for you, jittery is not good as it don't mean its working any better! And for some it can be a pain thats why SX advertises Jitter-free at your correct dose however you don't see many companies advertising "Try our most jittery product yet! You will feel like a patient from a mental institution, woo!"

    I think I may have put it a little wrong. I definitely don't want to feel jittery or anything like that. I just thought that the mood enhancing effect and energy would be a little more pronounced.

    After recapitulating the last week and doing some research, I'm under the strong impression that Bio Forge may suppress or revert the effects of SX, because it went downhill about two days after I started taking Bio Forge. At that point I was two days on SX could feel its effects in terms of appetite suppression, energy and sleeplessness.

    I'm not a chemist so I can't assess what exactly all those ingredients in SX and BF do and where they could interfere. Maybe somebody could help out here?

    I think, I will drop BF to see if the effects of SX from the first two days will return.

    I wish I could report having a similar success, too.

    Do you take any others supps while you are on SX?
