See the question "What are you hooked on?"
Several people answered thermogenics.
I assume you're talking about ephedra?
I try taking that stuff, 2-3 pills of
Xenedrine, or Adipokenetix, you know the list.
I like the way it kills my appetite,
but it makes my face feel real greasy/dirty
I get a little nauseous.
I don't sleep well that night.
And it has a ...shrinking violet.. effect on LittleJohn.
Am I just not staying on it long enough to get used to it?
Can you have sex while on it?
After about 3 days of it, I just can't force myself to pick up the bottle on the 4th day.

I used to do them when I was on my ketogenic diet of last year, and I would take them only Mon - Fri, and not use them on the weekend.

I was taking yohimbe too, and yohimbe seems to counter act the shrinking effects .. i was a horn dog on yohimbe!

Everybody's tolerance is different. I take 4-8 capsules of Xenadrine per day. I still eat 4-5 times per day and I actually sleep better at night because I'm so wound up during the day.

One effect I have noticed, unfortunately, is the limp dick syndrome. What has helped, is not taking any past 12:00pm. By the time I get home and the wifey and I get frisky, he's usually ok. If I try to knock boots during the early part of the day my little buddy is completely asleep.

I've only been taking this stuff for about 3 weeks, but I love it. It really gets me charged for my morning workouts.

I am paranoid of getting fat again...I've been taking some kind of "fat-loss" drug for the last 2-3 years now, whether it be ECA or any of its offspring, clen, tiratricol, T3, etc., etc.

Badkins - which of the Non-ECA would you recommend from the standpoint of few side effects.
Preferably something legal or easy to get.
Never heard of triacal.
I tried T3 and it just made me sweat a lot,
once at work - scared my co-workers to shit!

Puc, I think that Ephedrine can be very safe if you use it wisely. Most of the cases I have heard about are with people who will eat a whole handful of them and then go smoke weed, while also drinking. If you are stupid enough to take them like that...then you get what you...well, I won't even go there. LOL! Anyhow, I have been using it off and on for over six years without any problems at all. I love that stuff.
