ouchhhh.., Jul 25, 2012
|
reviewer: Amber from UK
|
| I bought a 120 cap bottle of zantrex online for £35 due to it been hard to purchase in the UK, I started taking Zantrex 3 the following day. After reading the instructions and wanting the best results as possible I decidid to take 2 capsules 3 times a day before each meals. Knowing that Zantrex was not a miricle pill I wanting to fully commit to my diet so I took Zantrex as part of a very healthy strict diet and regular exercise. Not knowing the true side affects I started taking Zantrex the day I planned a trip to a shopping center. After taking the first two I had seriously horrible side affects which included sickness, diziness, floating sentation, it was horrible. These side affects continued until about 3 weeks into taking them and then my body got used to the high doses of caffine, and it ended up if I didn\'t take zantrex, I was exhausted. All in all Zantrex speeded by my metabolism dramatically and I am currently down to 9.1 stone from 10.3. I ended up stopping taking Zantrex as the side affects where too much for me but I suppose everyone\'s different. I have recently relised that Zantrex has caused me to be very sensative to caffine months on and I cannot have a regular cup of coffee without getting the same horrible stomach cramps. |

New user, so far so good!!, Apr 18, 2012

reviewer: Military Mom from Louisiana
|
| brief background, 5\'4", 153lbs, active military mom. Basically looking more for energy but losing 15 lbs would be a plus. **Avvid caffiene drinker. I bought this on fri 4/13/12 and tried it w my lunch. I made sure I drank at least 32 oz of water. no issues. skipped wkend, Started over on Monday and by day 3 this week, I am 148 w/ my uniform :). I take 1 a day w plenty of water & food (1000-1200cal per day). Definately water weight is gone and it will keep u in the bathroom. As far as actual true weight loss? Not sure yet. As far as energy, well I intake a lot of caffiene, so not a lot of notice on that part. I haven\'t had any issues sleeping or stomach related issues, but I am approaching this slowly as there is no real miracle cure for weight loss. I am typically very active and I have had a hard time losing the last few pounds after my kiddo a few years ago. I seem to have hit a plateau, but this seems to be helping. Next week, once my body is accustomed I will try taking 1 in the morning and one in the afternoon. Perhaps that will give me the much needed energy boost I need after work to keep up with my kiddo. More to come next week. Good luck to all, hope this helps :) |

Not Sold Yet..., Nov 22, 2011

reviewer: Anonymous from Anytown, AT 55555

| I\'m 44, 231 pounds. target weight is 200. I\'m two weeks in. Lost 3 pounds first week. Nothing week two. Work out at least 3 times a week on eliptical or stairs for about 45 minutes in the morning before work. I take 2 pills mid morning, and 2 in the afternoon. I can drink small coffee with no jitters. Doesn\'t really give me an energy boost, or curb my appetite. Also have a skin rash in a private place since starting this product. (Not sure if this is a side affect of Z3 or just from working out). If that doesn\'t improve and soon, I\'m getting off Z3. If it does I\'ll give it another couple of weeks to kick in gear before I recommend this product to anyone else. Otherwise, I\'m going to Dexatrim Max. I\'ve lost 20 pounds on Dexatrim many years ago. I\'d go to "Avesil" because it looks like the best thing going on the market right now, but it\'s too expensive for my blood running about $90 a month and the only place you can buy it is their website. So it probably works. Good luck everyone! |

im 145 52 female 38 yr.old .I started taking this over 1 week ago and have not dropped nor have i gained. I take 2 IN THE MORNING and another in the evening and get none of the energy effects or supressed appetite. It seems to have a reverse affect on me.Very dissapointing and waste of money in my opinion.ICAN ONLY SAY THAT I DID GO TO THE BATHROOM alot maybe for the first two days, after that no change in nothing.IDRINK 2 CUPS OF COFFEE a day if that means anything at all.

Awesome pill, I love it!, Jul 22, 2011
|
reviewer: VanCityGurl from Vancouver, BC
|
| I started taking zantrex-3 before a girls trip to vegas, I was 5\'8 174 before the trip and after a month oh really hard work and zantrex I was 155... So 20 pounds in a month, pretty good!
When I say hard work I mean I was at the gym everyday... sometimes 2 times a day, for 2 hours. Plus no carbs or refined sugar and very little fruit a day, I looked healthy and it toned me quite nicely :) |

Not good., Jul 14, 2011
|
reviewer: Eva from New jersey
|
| This is my first day of taking zantrex and I took the reccommended dosage which didn\'t have much of an affect on me since I am used to drinking coffee. I am also a type 1 diabetic and since it really didn\'t say on the bottle or on the website that I shouldn\'t use it, I figured why not. I wish I would\'ve done a little more research before buying it because now my blood sugar has skyrocketed and I am extremely dehydrated and on top of that I\'m completely exhausted but I can\'t sleep! They really should put a warning on the bottle or box about people with pre-existing medical conditions. I\'m not willing to risk my life just to lose weight. I will no longer be taking these pills and will find something FDA approved and prescribed by my doctor. |

great, Apr 21, 2011
|
reviewer: Kyle from california
|
| my weight was 203 when i started taking this pill, after 2 weeks i was 188.
these pills gave me a lot of energy and made me feel more aware, and gave me the drive to run 4 miles a day. a mixture of z-3 , running and eating right really helped me out.
ive read the side effects and havnt gotten anything, but if you get some of the bad ones, then maybe it isnt for you |

Day 3, Jan 13, 2011
|
reviewer: Garcia from Crystal Lake, IL , USA
|
| Alright today is day 3 for me and besides a bit of nausea it has been great. On Sunday I weighed in and I was 212. Yesterday night I logged in I was 198, that is about 14 pounds in 4 days. Not exactly healthy but I feel great. When my mom tried this she was so sick she couldn\'t stand spent most of her time hung over a toilet. She said that she was very weak and that she felt like she wanted to die, Clearly it affects everyone differently. I am going to stick with it and make my goal. |

This pill works! Be patient.., Sep 23, 2010
|
reviewer: Jennifer from Winthrop, Maine
|
| I\'m 23, and have been having a hard time losing the baby weight from my pregnancy. I\'ve been taking Zantrex 3 for about 6 months now, and I\'ve lost 14 pounds. I don\'t really work out, I have a 1 and a half year old son who keeps me on my toes. I\'ve had a couple of episodes where my arms and face will turn bright red, and I get incredibly warm, but after drinking a bottle of water, it does go away. This pill works..I can\'t imagine how much more weight I\'d be losing if I was actually working out. I STRONGLY recommened starting out with 1 pill and working your way up. Don\'t jump right in with 2 pills..you might end up jittery or in some pain.. |

So far..so good, Sep 10, 2010
|
reviewer: Jenny Counter from Kenosha, WI
|
| So I just started taking Zantrex this morning...took it around 8am and then ate about 15 minutes later...and so far I am not having any of the "notorious" side effects; I have been drinking water all morning (and peeing a lot because of it lol) and had a snack of apples and grapes late morning. The only thing I have noticed different is that I am super energized; not to the point where I am shaking or anything, but I am not tired or anything. So maybe the secret to no side effects is constantly drinking water??? Who knows. But if this stuff actually works, I would be willing to put up with peeing a lot lol. |

Literally just bought the pill, Jul 24, 2010
|
reviewer: Keith from Clarksville, TN USA
|
| I just bought this pill today...just took two waited 15 mins and ate. Immediately after I went straight to the pool and started swimming, I felt very energized. I am feelin no bad side effects at this moment. I am feelin no jitters or anything like I have with taking stacker or energy drinks.
For the past few months I have been real lazy and low on energy so I decided to take the pill and so far it seems like it is working. I will go hiking tomorrow and later on I will post my results. |

Loads of energy, Jul 19, 2010
|
reviewer: Kayla from Michigan
|
Ok so today was my first day on Zantrex-3. I read all of the reviews and saw many negative comments. I agree with most ppl when they say START SLOW! This morning 7/19/10 I took one pill before I had some oatmeal and didn\'t have any side affects. It put me in a good mood and gave me lots of energy. In my opinion I think that the pill is pretty good. For lunch I have big bowl of mixed veggies and 15 mins prior to lunch I took 2 more Zantrex. I didnt feel the effects of it until I reached the gym. I got on the elliptical for 30 mins took a break and got on the treadmill for 10 mins. After that I felt high like I was walking on cloud 9. I must admit whatever is in it works well. I did 30 mins on the elliptical doing an avg of 52 RPM!! Zantrex also made me get really anxious for some reason, I could feel my anxiety building up it was weird. I\'m going to continue the pills along with dieting and exercise...NO! I not getting paid for writting this review but I think that this pill could help me with my weight loss...& again start slow...I think I moved a little to fast...I feel really high right now and I\'m sort of sleepy idk weird feeling...

It helped me with my weight loss goal, Jul 16, 2010
|
reviewer: No Name from Texas
|
I have been on a weight loss goal little personal project. I PERSONALLY lost 30 pounds BY MYSELF. but then I tried this pill and I think it worked. I took two in the morning. and like it said on the back of the bottle, I waited 15 minutes before eating. I usually did this with breakfast. Like I was saying, I took two in the morning when I woke up and ate breakfast 15 minutes after I took em with a lot of water. It works! I did not feel sick but I did felt energized.
It cut down my appetite. I did not think about eating. But it was worth it!
And after about two months, I lost 16 more pounds. So in total I lost 46 pounds. 30 by myself, 16 with the pill.
But I did fell very lazy after a few hours. Like I just wanted to hit the sheets very early. I think this pill sucked the energy out of me.
Anyways I ran out so tomorrow I am going to buy me another bottle. It just sucks tthough. The price

I <3 it!, Jul 15, 2010
|
reviewer: Keys H. from Nashville, TN
|
| I started taking Zantrex-3 about christmas time this past year. I weighed about 174 by my birthday in late feb. I weighed I 145 and Ive been able to maintain it so far and I have since stopped taking them. only every once in awhile for energy Ill pop one. what I personally loved the most was it didnt make me sick like other products I have tried. you do have to drink lots of water like the bottle says. I did notice a couple of times I felt weak or really tired when I didnt drink the recommended amounts of water. I balanced the pills with eating right and small amounts of exercise and trust me I do mean small I am not an active person at all =) its truely the best product I have ever tried! I really believe itll work for anyone who tries it and its so simple just read the directions and make it work for you! |

I thought I was dying., Jul 14, 2010
|
reviewer: Heather from Canada
|
| I\'m only on day two, I did the one pill a day to start off with, and at first it was just the heartburn, but as the day went on I got worse.
I\'m in so much pain, I really did think I was dying, I looked up side-effects of Zantrex-3 and one of them is acid reflux.
I looked up the symptoms I have after taking these pills: fluttering stomach muscles, nausea, intense headaches (nearly migraines), and extreme acid reflux to the point I feel like I can\'t breathe without gasping for air.
My heart flutters too, and not out of love for this pill, I looked up my symptoms and some sites say it\'s GERD, I never had it before taking this medication.
I highly suggest that if your doctor warns you, or you have second thoughts of this medication, listen to your body.
In the end, gaining weight is a little better than dying to lose the weight. I\'m going for different methods when I get better. I also feel like vomiting every time I breathe, and I have a few times. |

you really have to want to lose, Jun 28, 2010
|
reviewer: Alice from Anytown, AT 55555
|
| So I started taking this about 2 weeks ago, and took 6 pills a day as instructed by the bottle. With the 6 pills I\'ve lost over 3.5 lbs everyday whic I love but it comes at a price. I\'m very dizzy and shakey but I\'m willing to put up with feeling sick for losing 4 lbs a day. It\'s up to you to decide which is more important, weight loss fast or feeling not sick. |

reviewer: Abutterflyloves from Crystal Lake, IL USA
|
| I am sick. Yes, sick. Three days, of only 2 pills a day, and I feel like I have the flu. I also have zero appetite. I had to have some crackers last night, so I could sleep. Why three stars? Well, I bet if I keep taking these pills, I would lose tons of weight! |

reviewer: Unknown from USA
|
| I have been on Zantrex 3 for almost a week now. I have already lost 3 1/2 Lbs and my jeans are more loose.I only take 2 pills a day. it supresses your appetite and gives you more energy. it\'s true that it can make you feel sick, but it tells you to drink water with the pills. the more water I drink the better I feel! I\'m very please with this product and the results that I have gotten so far! |

2 years on Zantrax 3, Apr 29, 2010
|
reviewer: Morina from New York
|
| I was never a really heavy person, but i did gain 30 lbs from eating unhealthy and working a desk job for about a year. I started taking zantrax 2 years ago and have been an avid user since. I agree that when you first start off you shouldn\'t take the 2 pills, start off with one. I took the recommended 2 pill dose and had heavy heart palpitations and had more energy then when I drink a red bull. I had to run around the block and drink a lot of fluids for the feeling to ease up. I lost the 30 lbs after the first 2 months, 15 lbs a month by excersizing and eating a balanced diet. I continue to take the pills to maintain the weight but i take the pills right before my meal instead of 15 min ahead, so far im at a steady weight of 135 lbs and I can eat whatever I want without gaining. |

reviewer: Anonymous from Texas
|
| I just started taking Zantrex-3 two days ago and I\'ve lost 4 lbs already. The first day I did feel a little jittery and I had some stomach pains, but I usually don\'t have a lot of caffeine so I think that\'s why I felt like that. I\'m on a low-calorie diet and exercise for 15-30 mins a day. I love the energy...I actually want to exercise or just get up and do something. Love,love,love it! |
