❤️ - I thought one of them might work. I was excited to lose the lbs. quickly.
π« - I was wasting my money because while some of them made me feel better, I didn't lose weight...
At least not long term!
Now I just HATE π« this aisle. There's so much more to life than being skinny. Your goal should be ➡️ HEALTHY! Unfortunately the products on those shelves are anything but healthy.
As I checked the ingredients in these products, it broke my heart. So many of these products contain extra caffeine and other stimulants like guarana, and one of the scariest to me... a supplement called bitter orange (Synephrine). It is VERY similar to ephedra with the same types of side effects (Increased heart rate and blood pressure; reports of anxiety, stroke, irregular heartbeat, heart attack). There's a reason it is banned by the NCAA.
No amount of weight loss is worth risking your health. I don't care what route you take with your weight loss but PLEASE do your research on stimulants before jumping on board with something. Friends don't let friends ruin their health for the number on a scale!
