SX works quite well for appetite suppression once you're in, but the adjustment you go through in the beginning is just something you have to invest in. It will get MUCH easier.

How about two and a booster? Also would two boosters account for one SX?

The fasting aspect of the diet has several positive effects on lipolysis, partly mediated by catecholamines and growth hormone release during the fast. Besides acting as an appetite suppressant, the catecholamines provides a stimulant effect; you will most likely feel like you have more energy and focus than usual (in this state any other stimulants, like caffeine for example, also has a more potent effect in comparison to being consumed on a full stomach)..
In other words, if you stick to the fast, 1 will probably be enough. It's kind of a paradox, seeing as the first day or two is so tough. Your brain is so used to constant nourishment that it does whatever it can to convince you to eat in this period. That will subside, and SX will kick in in full effect. Then your main concern will be whether or not you're eating ENOUGH!

like a road trip to vegas from california?
"We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a saltshaker half-full of cocaine, and a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers... Also, a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether, and two dozen amyls. Not that we needed all that for the trip, but once you get into locked a serious drug collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge, and I knew we'd get into that rotten stuff pretty soon"....
or pop 3 SX!!!!!!!!!

So this morning I took 2 caps, and no coffee. Last night it was hard to get sleep, but again even with lack of I don't feel sleep deprived. I currently have a pretty steady flow of energy, no jitters
I don't quiet feel "charged", maybe a little more mellow. I don't quiet have the appetite suppression that I have had the last couple of days, but I can work with it. Hopefully I can start getting some more sleep soon.Now that I stopped the coffee and Monster energy drink.

I think it would be more like a Stim X, the 8 hr formula, yet it doesnt have the complete delivery system as the SX nor Stim X...but I haven't tried the boosters, but I have my order in so I will try that and give you guys feedback...

Yeaahhh.... You'll definitely want to lay off those while on SX. No wonder you can't sleep!! :burnout:
No, it doesn't work that way. The boosters are a shot of stim and a quick release Adbe whereas SX is time released. My optimal dose is 2 SX and if I hit the gym that day, it becomes 2 SX and 1 SXB.

You'll eventually have a light "come down" where you'll feel normal again if you didn't dose today, but it's not a crash by any means. It's like looking around the room all of the sudden and realizing that somebody left - no biggy, just didn't notice them going.

I'm more of a lurker/reader then poster, but today was my first experience with SX and I felt compelled to add my 1 day review.
First off, I'm a middle of the road person when it comes to stim supps - like them well enough, but gave up on most after the ephedra ban. My two favorites (if anyone here remembers them) were the ephedra versions of Met-Rx Thermicore CRT (caplets) and EAS Betalean HP (the original in the blue see-through bottle, not the crap version with the same name that was sold in Wal-Marts). The thing I liked most about both of them was the time-release aspect that increased energy and mood but also gave you a much smoother come down instead of a crash. They were both good for fat loss, although Betalean worked a little better or me. So that is the bar that I was using to compare SX to.
I took one cap of SX at 7:30 this morning on an empty stomach with 16 oz. of water:
FEEDBACK
*Didn't notice much until about 9:00 AM, which was just after a protein shake and a banana (first food of the day).
*Once I started working (a day spent almost exclusively at my desk which is rare) I was totally dialed into what I was researching. Not a zombie, but very able to concentrate and process information at a steady pace.
*Mood was great - positive, slightly more social than usual, much less cynical than usual.
*Energy was very clean and smooth. I felt awake and ready/able to work, but no jitters and no overstimulation which is a big plus for me; I'd rather be dragging than "cracked" out.
*Towards lunch I felt like I could eat and wanted to eat, but my hunger was totally under control. I had a big salad, an apple, and some cheese and was totally satisfied. The salad tasted good and I ate it, but I wasn't ravenous for it and I'm a ravenous eater. NO desire for dessert after lunch - for me this is truly amazing as I have a very large sweet tooth.
*Afternoon work was much like the morning - focused and productive without being hungry or jittery. Just a consistent great feeling.
*Dinner was another big salad with some steamed chicken breast and a PB & J that I didn't really want but I needed the calories. Cravings totally under control.
*It's now 9:17 PM and I still feel great. My sweet tooth got the best of me about 9:00 PM, but I had a lo-cal day and my body is craving a quick fix of cals. I feel like I'm just starting to wind down a little, but my mood is euphoric - relaxed but very happy.
OVERALL IMPRESSION
My day with SX was a little different then I expected, but in a good way. From reading the reviews I thought I would see more of a CNS stimulant effect, but what I got was a brain and body lift that was really clean and very natural feeling - like the day after having a GREAT night's sleep and being in a confident, positive, ready to go mood.
The descriptions I keep coming back to in my head are consistency and control:
*I didn't experience appetite suppression, but I had appetite control - I wanted to eat but was aware of only eating good, quality food and had the desire to execute.
*I didn't experience a rush of energy, but rather a controlled increase of energy that lasted and lasted and is still hanging in there.
*I didn't get into a giddy/goofy mood; I settled into a positive, quiet confidence that was appealing to others without being annoying to others.
*I didn't have a speed like focus where my brain was moving 3 steps faster then my surroundings, but rather I felt totally in step with what I was doing and what was going on around me.
I did not train today but I'm looking forward to that experience on SX. It's obviously too early to judge fat loss, but I could see this product as something that keeps you on track and even feeling good on a strict low-carb diet - that would really be something. I'm anxious to try out a few days of strict food intake while taking SX to see how it fares.
In my opinion the crew at AX have hit this one right out of the park. If these results keep up at even 80% through rest the bottle you have a customer for life. SX is everything I look for in this type of product without everything I don't want. A+ all the way; you all really have a winner on your hands.
***For the sake of disclosure, although I am a supplement veteran this is the first AX product that I have ever used and SX was the only supplement of any kind (aside from protein powder) that I used today.

My review....
6:30 am; Took 1 SX and 1 Lean FX on an empty stomach
7:30 am: First effects noticed; nice clean energy buzz
9:00 am: WOW. No other words to describe the feeling...I am impressed
9:30 am; Coworker brings in breakfast tacos. I haven't eaten yet, and I am normally on meal 2 of 6 for the day. Zero appetite which for me is hard to kill => EC stack makes me hungry? Decide to eat b/c if I skip meals I get nauseated and grumpy. Only ate 1 taco. Back to the clean buzz...
1:30 pm: ZERO appetite but decide I need to eat. Take another Lean FX, wait 10 minutes, then eat. Food tastes good, but I am full about halfway through a normal lunch
2:00 pm: Back to the clean buzz...
7:30 pm: Take last Lean FX for the day and decide to cook dinner. Appetite is now at 50% of normal, but food is good and I eat so I can sleep
10:00 pm: Not tired, NO crash, decide to type this review...still amazed at how I feel
Thanks guys!
Summary: WOW! I have done every stimulant in the book, trust me. This stuff is really nice. I amazed at the energy, the focus, the lack of gitters and the drive. No edgey anxiety like with ephedra that makes me want to drink a 12 pack when I get home after work. Good thermogenisis, as I was really warm all day, but not clen "oh my God am I going to overheat" hot. Just a nice thermo. No racing heart, no paranoia, nada. I could go on and on and on...but I am going to bed now

On a related issue, somewhat, I already gave a thought to SX and the Meanie! If I'm going to plan on taking a longer ride some weekend, maybe to see some fellow AXholes out in O-HI-O!, I may pack SX along just in case. I'm sure that with it, I could ride the tank out many times over before I need to stop and refuel!! Concentration and mood "leveling" effects would definitely help me keep it shiny side up!! :head:

ok now I had the original Stim X from the get go.... back when carlos still worked for the company and he hooked me up with it before release... bottom line is that stuff was so strong a friend of mine who was an admitted meth addict came to me asking where she could pick some up after giving her like 5 pills just to compare to what she was used to....
also my Ex wife swore by this stuff and was sorely dissapointed with the 1.5 and 2.0 releases, as was I for the few times that I decided to take a few pills.... she will be stoked if this is the same as the OG.
my question is IS this the exact same formula? seemed to have more ingredients the the original... or is it mainly the same with a similar LONG lasting smooth no crash insane good feeling energy... which only the original really had (the following ones were not as good and only lasted half as long)
btw its great to be back again and have the interwebz again and to see that theres great things like this that happened in my absence....

Well well well.... Looks like everybody is crawling out of the woodwork this week! GREAT to see you again, Poops!!!!
To answer your question, it's not the exact same formula, but it's close and it has the same feel. It's liking buying an original Viper for the endless power, then picking up the newest one to find that there's even more power, more refinements, and it works even better - same spirit, but better fit-n-finish. If you were that much of a fan of the first one, then I can personally guarantee that you'll like this one just as much if not more. It's a completely different feeling and a completely different approach to all-day stimulation. No crackhead feelings, no jittery "I'm going to die" feelings....just all day, smooth, "what just happened and why can't I take a nap" loveliness!!

day 2 now,
took 1 pill yesterday felt great but i was craving caffeine all day. ive been consuming alot of caffeine. i managed to lay off of it totally and developed that headache last night and this morning, the caffeine withdrawel headache.
the good thing is that this is going to help me kick the caffeine habit for a while as it is low dosed. im tired of being a caffeine junkie.
warning to you coffee lovers, decaf coffee DOES still have caffeine in it, so be careful as a low dose can keep you up. i drink diet hot chocolate in replacement.
fell asleep right away last night, and for the first time in a VERY long time i woke up 1 hour before my alarm clock 100% refreshed.
still on 1 pill day 2, not sure if i should go up to 2 or not. what am i looking for if i need to go to day 2? will it really help my metabolism going to 2 pills, as in double the effect?

Good observation (from a man who knows caffeine from the sound of it.) People probably don't recognize how bad caff can mess with quality sleep, especially stacked with other stimulating foods, supps, and beverages. De-caff is not caff free, it's really just caff reduced! I don't think a lot of people are aware of this. I read a study once where 2 cups of decaff cause greater BP rise that 2 cups of regular in the study subjects. I don't drink de-caff anymore. It just never tasted good or made me feel right either.
T-AD
Well-known member
That, and it's more expensive!! The process to "remove" the caffeine often drives up the price. Nowadays, a decaf coffee tastes better than it used to, but it's still not as good as high-test. I'm a hardcore coffee fanatic - not that I drink a ton anymore, but I'm a regular subscriber to Gevalia and go to Starbucks to actually TASTE the coffee, not order a half-caf soy caramel bla-cchiotototototohernamewasrioandshedancesonthesand. I ask for a big cup of XXX brew, and that's it - for the flavor, always black, and always savored.
Ok, just wanted to share that. Anywho, coffee of ANY variety on SX is bad. Yes, I know this first-hand.

Stimulant-X
I purchased Stimulant-X well over a year ago, but the pills had cracked open in the bottle, so I had a bottle full of powder. The few that I could use were quite good. Stimulant-X is still for sale, but from what I gathered reading this post it may not be the same stimulant-x that I tried back then. Is this new Slim extreme (SX) the better product for energy?

If the pills are cracked, did you try to return the bottle? You can do that, ya know! 
E-mail me if you need help and I'll do whatever I can for ya.
StimX and SX are completely different animals. StimX is great energy, while SX is great...well, it's really really hard to put into words. The feel is very different from the two, despite both being stimulants. StimX is a bit more buzzy, but without crash and lasting a good 6-8 hours. SX is absolutely pimp-daddy smooth, absolutely no crash or fade, and lasts for 12+ hours with just one dose. Which is the better product? That, my friend, would be up to you to decide based on your experiences, current goals, and how you like your day to go!

Yeah, I noticed that too. If others around me are going out to eat, it's not like I just can't eat, at least a little something. The food even tastes good after I force down the first few bites, even though I do get full much faster. However, if nobody else is eating, I usually don't even think about lunch until later when I remember that I forgot it, lol.

I'm the same way. Since I'm at the office 9-4 M-F, I am constantly looking at the clock to see if it's time to leave yet! At 11 and 2, I time myself to eat, but with SX, i often forget about it. One meal is usually just a shake, which goes down ok. The regular food meal is often a bit harder to get all down. More leftovers for the next day!

I have been on one pill for about 10 days straight and had to stop taking them yesterday morning. I have read that after a couple of days that sleep patterns should return to "normal" but I have not been able to do that. 3:00AM to 6:30AM is what my sleep looks like on one pill of SX. I kept trying to give it more time but after about 8 days I felt brain dead. Anyone have any suggestions on what I might be able to take that could help with my sleep? I love SX but I have to be able to sleep a little more than what I mentioned. I am going to split and recap 10 of them on Sunday and start taking a half a day and see how that works as well.
