I threw up and Im already feeling better. Thank God. I hated that feeling. It was that sick feeeling in your stomach when you are drunk and theres no way to stop feeling that way. I will never take 2 again. I'd rather take 1 and just deal with the reduction in appetite supressing abilities.

Sorry you felt sick Amber, how was the rest of the day for you?
I did my third day today. On the first day I took it with some peanut butter "just in case" to maybe blunt the effects if it were to strong for me, on the second I decided it was ok on an empty stomach and today I took it on an empty stomach too. There is a good difference at least for me between empty and full stomach. To be honest I think if I take two I'll prob have a similar reaction. Maybe, if your interested further along, you can try the 2 caps with some food and see how that treats you.
A couple of other suggestions; dlucks (who found 2 caps strong) spoke of trying 1SFX with 1 StimX (the newest one) You can see how that goes for him and decide if you'd like to try that.
Or If your take your 1st cap especially early, by the time you feel effects wearing off u can try taking your second cap later in the day. Now I have to mention that would be risky due to possible sleep issues.
I wouldn't ever recommend splitting a cap.
Whatever you decide please keep us posted. We appreciate the frequent updates.

And my previous post was for Amber (sorry, getting used to AM app).
As suggested with food or without, this maybe something you need to experiment with since everyone reacts different to certain ingredients.
The key is to listen to your body. Once you know what protocol works for you, you'll reap all the benefits.

Well, I have decided to stop taking the Slim FX. After the day I took two, I have been taking just one. My hunger is even more insistant than before I went on SlimFX, or maybe it just feels that way since for 3 days it had held it at bay. In addition to the hunger, I have felt some meloncholy. Again, I dont know if it's because of disappointment with the appetitie supression effects dwindling or because of the SlimFX. Either way, today I did not take anything and I already am feeling better this morning.
Having never taken a stimulant of any kind, ever (before this) I am not an expert. This is simply an account of my experience. I hope others have much better luck with theirs.

Amber,
Maybe take a week off. Seriously log your daily food intake and how you feel without Slim FX. After a week, start back with 1 for maybe 2 weeks, then attempt to jump to 2 caps.
What are you eating before or after and what's the time frame?
This way you'll be able to determine if there's anything else going on within your body... besides the Slim FX.

I wanna recommend you to take a week off from Slim FX. Write down the details about your diet, hunger, your overall mood, etc... After one
week, start up with 1 capsule of Slim FX with food, and write down the details again..
If you have time, I would appreciate you writing down your whole day, food & drinks.. Perhaps you are drinking something that has a stimulanting effect that you're not thinking on, i.e. cup of coffee, energy drink, etc. Are you taking any other supplement/drug that might have stimulanting effects ? I'm willing to go through anything you write and see if I can find anything that we can realate to this matter.
Lets see how that goes for you.

I too had a problem after a week at 2 pills a day. I have actually gained 2lbs. My appetite was suppressed for the first few days but by day 3 it was back and I just couldnt seem to stop eating. I am also going to take a few days off from slim fx and see what it going on.
Suggestions?

I've heard of one or two people experiencing increased hunger when using a fat burner, which has 3,3 and particularly 3,5-diiodo-l-thyronine. Slim FX doesn't contain either of these but are there any other ingredients that affect the thyroid?
Amberslade - there is some good advice here especially about writing everything down that you eat/drink. I remember a couple of people had issues with SX and it turned out they were drinking soda (Mountain Dew, I think) that also contained caffeine. The caffeine in SX together with the soda was the reason for their problems.

this supresses hunger fairly good...not as good as the "other SX"..but OEP increased my hunger for some reason.

I have yet to try the new FX, but I gained weight on SX too, fwiw. If I didn't eat on SX I would lose weight obviously, but if I ate my normal maintenance calories I would GAIN a couple pounds. Dunno what's going on here, maybe I'm more sensitive to the increased cortisol but it didn't seem to help if I took extra nutrients to "calm" cortisol. And yeah, after a while on and off on SX, my brain found out that FOOD tasted AMAZING, and I would eat more.
But, to lose weight I would paradoxically NOT take SX.

Yes, I would suggest the same as to Amber really, take stock of what your eating and when, what time you take the SlimFx and what you feel while on it. Then let us know how it goes for you. We are all available by e-mail or pm as well.

stimulants like caffeine often cause gastric problems for those who are prone, you might try taking a otc antacid before dosing slimfx.

I took 2 caps today on an empty stomach before lunch and things were rocking after about 15 minutes. I put some food in the tank and have been really enjoying the mental alertness now for 8 1/2 hours. Oh yeah, I finally ate at 6:30. FWIW, I basically eat all day. So this was a rarity for me. I am going to have fun with SlimFX.

I'm only on my second day with Slim FX , so I can't honestly say much about it ... But it seems as the hungry fat guy in me went quite... I'm very interested to see how this goes!
Awesoem to hear that Slim FX is helping! Is he a forum user ? Would be interesting to read his progress with this
How do you guys look on "appetite suppression" from a supplement ?.... For me, it's different to be hungry and thinking on food... And not being hungy and thinking on food...
Right now I'm drowling with the thought a kebab platter with hot sauce.. BUT, I'm not hungry.. I just like food...

Unfortunately he is not on the forum. He bought 4 bottles though...lol
He loves the appetite suppression. He gauges it by his want for sweets and bad food. Because that is mostly his diet...its is going great.. .he barely eats them at all.

Those extremely sensative to the stim aspect of most thermo's, taking it with food is always the best option. It's a tad ironic though that to get a more balanced approach to the appetite suppressant side of things, you take it with food. Nice

allright, I've had a chance to try the new Slim FX. Took 1 cap early this morning and so far energy has been good, and my mood has been elevated through the "usual suspects": good music, carefully controlled portion sizes of palatable food, a little caffeine, interacting with good people, a little exercise (haven't had a chance to test it in a vigorous workout yet).
Now, I always compare to the famous SLIM XTREME since it definitely raised the bar in the stimulant market, and Slim FX, so far, is NOT SX. Far from. However as they (AX) say, it might give a 70% SX effect, which still is pretty good. However it does lack these extra 30% of AWESOMENESS ("I'm better than most people"-effect upon awakening). But, then again it might be less harsh on the body than SX was.
EDIT: FX might still be the best stimulant OTC right now, which is .... pretty good, I guess.

Nice review...
Can you please compare FX with SX in the categories focus/concentration and motivation (from 1-10)?
I´ll use it as a study/working aid too...

Thanks for the review, Clever Mouse! Yeah, I guess it's inevitable to not compare it to SX... But as it isn't SX it will lack those extra 30%

Yeah, first let me say my experience with FX is limited, but here goes (so far):
SX:
focus/concentration: 9
motivation: 9
FX:
focus/concentration: 7
motivation: 7
And, to compare, FX is still better than Stim X, and other fatburners/stims out there. Probably their 1-metiq in high dose kicking in.
I'd rate FX as a nice energy/mood booster, but it doesn't touch SX in the "focus/motivation" area. SX was HELLA STRONG and could change lives. I know AX is tired of hearing about "does it compare to SX", but - this is free speech - and once you go SX you never go back!
I'll eventually stack FX with the racetams, and some other stuff, maybe that'll kick it up a notch. My SX stash will run out, sometime.
I demand RESULTS from my supplements!
AX taught me that. btw, I scanned the supplement facts on FX and they say it does contain DLPA too, which SX didn't have. When I take DLPA on its own I get this energetic, jumpy feeling which FX also yields. I may be placeboing things, but I felt a stronger, burning dopaminergic effect from SX, responsible for the superior motivation/focus. FX is more a norepinephrinergic feeling, but yeah this is just my own 2c. And, ymmv.

This could be the challange for AX: make the next FX-version more dopaminergic like SX was, maybe they´ll get 80-90% of SX...

I alternate days, Still haven't taken SS and SFX on the same day. But I can easily see me taking SS for a morning workout then a little later on taking SFX in the future. I don't crash from SS but I do miss it when it goes.
Haven't felt jittery at all, but you gotta try it to know for yourself. Go slow, my first scoop of SS wasn't exactly a full scoop, it was sort of hesitant out of respect lol.

When do you work out t bone? If your like a lot of people and prefer to workout in the mornings then I would say, take one or the other as your pre-wo pusher througher and get your tolerance level in check, then go into stacking them starting at half dose for each. If your a later work out type of person, then taking sfx as a morning get goer followed by a later dosing of SS would be good.

I work out in the mornings. What I did was I took one scoop of Supersize pre-workout. When I got home from my workout I took 1 slim fx. Felt a little nervous and jittery for about 45 minutes. I took it at 12:45 EST. Now it seems to have worn off. I almost want to have a coffee or some AI sports motivate, but I think I'll hold off unless I start to fall asleep.

Are you doing anything active or just sitting? I've taken stims in the past that didn't feel like they were doing anything until I got out and started doing something active then holy cow. Also, did you take it with or without food?
