Slim Quick for Weight Loss: Does it Work?
89Slim Quick has quickly gained popularity with dieters, especially for women interested in losing those last 7-10 pounds after their own dieting and exercise strategy. It works as a fat burner and appetite suppressant, encouraging fat loss by boosting the body's metabolism and decreasing the ‘need' for food.
Slim Quick is a powerful fat burner especially designed for women, and although it has not been formally approved by the FDA, it has quickly become a popular choice for women who cannot lose stubborn fat throughout other means.
Many weight loss supplements, diet pills, and other weight loss aids leave the dieter with excess caffeine in the bloodstream, unstable blood sugar levels, and can even cause nauseau and constipation. More powerful diet drugs can also lead to a variety of harmful medical conditions such as heart disease, hypertension, and increased risk of diabetes. Slim Quick offers a ‘safer' solution, for weight loss with varying results.
What does Slim Quick Contain?
Slim Quick (Slimquick) contains various trademarked ingredients to encourage weight loss. Each serving of Slim Quick contains:
• Cyclovite: a combination of vitamins and minerals that may help with weight loss
• Nutratherm: made with green tea leaf extract, cocoa bean extract, clary sage, yerba mate, and caffeine. This is a thermogenic combination of ingredients that can increase the metabolic rate
• Aquaplex: a combination fo dandelion leaf and root, horse tail, Uva Ursi extract, and French maritime pine extract. This formula that works as a diuretic to move excess water from the body
• Estrotrim: a combination of soy isoflavones and vitex agnus-casuts. This works as a hormone balancing complex that is especially helpful for women dieters
• Cortifem: a combination of rhodiola rosea root extract, theanine, and other ingredients. This is a stress reducing formula designed to reduce the release of cortisol in the system. Excess cortisol in the body may be attributed to weight gain and increased body fat
• XTEND Absorption and Time Release: Cellulose ethers, folic acid, Vitamin D, and Vitamin B-12, and calcium can help keep the metabolism elevated throughout the day, delivering a steady release of all other ingredients in the supplement.
How Does Slim Quick Work?
Slim Quick diet pills are packaged with a diet and exercise program with tips and information on how to use Slim Quick in conjunction with an eating plan. The exercise programs offer two choices of weight training and cardio especially designed for women. The programs encourage both low and high intensity muscle-bearing exercises to boost the metabolism, and this technique has long been used by athletes, fitness enthusiasts, and even bodybuilders who are trying to slim down.
Slim Quick offers a scheduled dosage chart so that the dieter can adapt to the capsules easily. Each day consists of two ‘servings.' During the first week, Slim Quick dieters are expected to take one capsule for their first serving, and one capsule for their second serving. Each capsule needs to be taken on an empty stomach along with 8 oz. of water. The capsules need to be spread out over 6 hours, and the minimum requirement (for best results, the company claims), is one month. Weeks two through four require 2 capsules per serving, for a total of 4 per day. The manufacturer also recommends no more than 4 capsules within any 24 hour period.
Bottom Line:
Slim Quick does contain powerful vitamins, natural ingredients, and other synthetic blends that may aid in weight loss. However, some testimonials still report that Slim Quick makes the user feel jittery and nauseous; side effects may include dizziness, anxiety, elevated heart rate and blood pressure, and a range of other common side effects associated with excessive caffeine use.
Slimquick is designed for women, and may help reduce cravings and PMS-related diet issues. Still, a steady weight loss and exercise program requires balance: any dieter interested in losing a few pounds can work on eating healthy and nourishing food, maintaining a consistent exercise program, and losing weight at a steady pace.

I just started adding SlimQuick to my regime. I eat "clean" every 2 1/2-3 hours, go to the gym everyday using weights and strength training and also cardio. The SlimQuick has given a boost of energy I was needing and I dont see increasing the dose in weeks 2-4. I am voiding more often, which helps me feel cleaner on the inside and tells me the gallon of water I have been drinking each day isn't stopping for a visit I dont need. Slim Quick is a beneficial part of my regular training.
I'm using the powdered mix that you simply add to a 16.9 ounce bottle of water. I drink three bottles a day a half hour before each planned meal and exercise regularly. I have not suffered any adverse effects. I get the boost of energy that I so desperately needed to get through work, school, children and an exercise regime. I do void more often, which I agree helps me to feel 'cleaner' inside, as if this detox is working effectively. In 5 weeks I have lost 13 pounds... a major accomplishment on my part. I think that if I stick with this regime, this product can be the catalyst to continue helping me acheive my goals.
this stuff dont work
i have been on medifast for 7 days and lost 9 pounds. its pricy but it definelty works.... i thought i can take slim quick while i wait on my next order from medifast but it is just a crash and burn scam like all the others!
I have recently taken the Hydroxycut pills and powdered drink mix. SCAM SCAM SCAM!! The pill products actually made me constipated and what was being released was already there -so the weight didn't drop off. The drink mix wasn't nothing more than Kool-Aid with little to no sugar. C'mon get this off the shelves and away from late night TV. It has gotten me reeled in now I'm jumping back to the shore. It's not getting any more of my attention. The money back gaurantee dosen't work either. Trust me -I've tried they wanted pic from then to now.... Really
I have tried the Slim Quick pills and they do just fine for me.
An interesting article. I normally do not advocate diet pills, however slim quick sounds promising. I like that it appears to be packed pull of powerful vitamins and nutrients, but the side effects sound a bit sketchy. I think the most important diet plan for anyone to follow is healthy eating and a serious dedication to exercise. Alas, if all else fails this seems like a good alternative solution.

In my opinion.. Slimquick does work. I took one pill lastnight on an empty stomach only because i didn't want to wait until today to get started (i'm impatient). I actually lost a pound overnight, and i mean once i took a pill.. about 5-10 minutes later i felt completely energized. More than i've ever been, atleast recently. I went out the treadmill for about half an hour, then did a couple crunches and situps. It felt good. Sadly, i've gained weight over the summer which is very rare for me. I just happened to pig out A LOT & gained 20 POUNDS! Which is horrible in my case. As of now i weigh 144 and i'm about 5'5" - 5'6".
hopefully i can reach my goal, and go back to my old self..
:)
Hey nice hub - very informative
i've been taking slimquick for a month and have lost 15lbs!! i dont have time to hit gyms so i just do ab work and taebo..lol yes i said taebo..but it works!! i havent really changed the way i eat. i love it
I started taking the SlimQuick caplets (with green tea) 4 days ago and it has helped me quite a bit! Before I would snack ALL throughout the day and I always felt hungry. Now I am hardly ever hungry and I can only eat small portions at a time. I started a light exercise program and am eating healthier and I've already lost 7 lbs! The only thing I don't care for is the fact that it does make you feel a little light headed at times (not always). So far I'm loving this product and I recommend it!
Great article. I have been looking for a way to lose weight. I think I am going to give SlimQuick a try.
GREAT... WITH ALL THIS GOOD COMMENTS... I WILL JUMP TOMORROW FOR A SLIMQUICK... I WILL LET YOU ALL KNOW.
I started Slimquick yesterday and havent really had in "horrible" side effects. I feel more energized and less hungry. Word to the wise though make sure to drink 8oz of water with each pill or you will start to feel jittery.
THIS STUFF THIS "SLIMQUICK" CAUSE MY MALE GENITALIA TO TURN A STRANGE COLOR BLUE. I RODE THE TOWN BUS AND POOPED!! UNCONTROLLABLY. I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS "SLIMQUICK" MAKE ME POOP ON A PUPLIC BUS!! NOT EVEN A PRIVATE CAR!!
I ADVICE YOU DO NOT USE THIS PILL UNLESS YOU WAN TO POOP IN PUBLIC AND HAVE YOUR SEPCIAL PARTS TURN STRANGE COLORS.
I used the Slimquick Cleanse a couple months ago and when I used it, it made me lose 8 pounds in a week. Was perfect for the occasion I was losing weight for. But it's only good for temporary weight loss, but you can keep it off if you switch to a long-term Slimquick product such as Slimquick The Female Fat Burner.I'm deciding to do a long-term weight loss now. I bought Slimquick Female Fat Burner today and I have been less hungry and feel energized. Looking forward to see the results. I've heard good things about it. My friend lost 25 pounds in 8 weeks with it.
P.S. Bart...that probably happened because it's a FEMALE product. If you actually read the box, you would understand that.
i have a tyroid can i still take it
I have taken the hydroxycut diet pills for a while now i weight in at about 150 when i started. Im only 5'2 and within six months i was down to about 120 with little diet and excersise. Now i just want to get the rest off, until im fully saitisfied with my body.. with what i read about slimquick, it seems promising, but with hydroxycut it worked, but its like i became immune to it and i think it made me bloat and constipated....i have also tried 100 other diet pills and nothing ever seemed to work, the side effects were always lightheadness and nausea..and i cant get through work that way..so im hoping slimquick will work!!!!!
good luck to everyone trying to lose weight. i know its tough but stick to eating healthy and NOT snacking at night.. OHH and if u really wanna tone your body up quick i recommend P90x ii love it!!! good luck everyone=)
I haven't taken any slim quick and it hasn't helped at all
I started slimquick today, I have to agree with the previous comment, make sure the pill is taken with a big glass of water. I took it with half glass and i felt nauseous and jittery. I drank more water and i was fine!
I'll update more as i proceed with the product.
I started taking slimquick caplets on may 20th, so this is my 5th day--and I have to say I like it A LOT! I have not recorded my weight, because I just want to get to a comfortable "looking" wieght for myself, and fit into my jeans again. Today is my 5th day, and I can tell that my stomach has shrunk, I am very happy with slimquick so far =]
started slimquick 3 weeks ago great product for women makes me feel energized, but not jittery. has made me a happier person. the product comes with a diet and excercise plan that seems if you use that with out the tables you would be sure to lose weight so i just stick with my own plan i eat healthy breakfast lunch and dinner thats not an effort to stick to and powerwalk for about 30 mins a day and i have lost 8 pounds in 3 weeks. i recommend this product. side effects for me.. first couple of days really bad gas, and if you slip up and eat something really unhealthy it WILL make you constipated so if your going to start this make sure you are eating healthy and being active.. just remember there is no such thing as a magical pill that will burn your fat off with out you putting some effort in.. so ladies if you are serious about losing it make sure you are willing to put the effort in! this tablet is the boost you need! and as for the time of the dreaded time of the month it helps with that also! i recommend this for serious ladies trying to lose weight and arent looking for a magic remedy to do it all for them! :)
hey i bought this product a couple weeks ago and i am afriad to take it because i have a history of panic attacks and i am thinking if i take it will bring them on?i drink over a gallon of water a day and i am wondering if since i drink so much water will it dilute the side effects?
Has anyone else felt bloated on the slim quick pills?
I started Slimquick powder about a week ago. I haven't weighed since the day before I started it. I take the berry flavored powder. I do not like the taste so mix it 3/4 water 1/4 pomegranite juice, or a teaspoon of lemon juice. I only take it once a day because of my schedule, but am going to start taking it twice this week. I hope it jump starts my weight loss. I am going to the gym only once or twice a week. Does anyone know why it says not to take it within 5 hours of going to bed?
I JUST STARTED TAKING SLIMQUICK THIS MORNING. I TOOK IT WITH WATER AND ABOUT 1/2 HR I FELT LIKE I WAS GOING TO THROW UP. I ALSO FEEL A LITTLE LIGHT HEADED. I TOOK MY AFTERNOON ONE BUT I ATE 1/2 PIECE OF STEAK AND STEAMED VEGGIES RIGHT AFTER. IT SAYS TAKE ON AN EMPTY STOMACH BUT HOW LONG AFTER SHOULD YOU EAT?
I started taking SlimQuick about 3 weeks ago...ive lost 9lbs.
I am generally a snacker but I havent had the urges to snack since I started taking it. I have only gotten the jitters once and it was very much because I didnt drink the water. I usually yawn all day at work but I find myself much more awake and energized and can even stay awake through entire client meetings now.
Haha. definately try this...if you are a girl...the product is made for WOMEN.
I have been taking the Slimquick Naturals for about a month now and I really like it. I eat very well(vegetarian diet) and I excercise 5 days a week. This is used in conjunction with my current daily routines. It really does curb my appetiite and I have been going to the bathroom alot, which makes me feel alot healthier. I have lost 5 lbs so far, but like the energy boost that these pills give me and if you look at the ingredients of the Naturals, it really is natural. It doesnt give me the jitters at all and I haven't had any bad side effects. I recommend Slimquick Naturals.
I've been taking Slim Quick powder for 5 days now and I've lost at least 4 pounds. I do at least 45 mins cardio and weights every other day as well. What is most amazing to me is that I have not had sugar cravings or cravings for snacks in between meals at all. This product has totally curbed my appetite just as well as Adipex did when I used to take that.
i have been takin slimquick for a week and have lost 10lbs already with a good diet and exersize and im deffenitly sticking to it..for all you who say it dont work you much not be doing sumthing right.
I AM 53 in menopause getting periods every 3 months. This stuff works I use slim quick naturals, eat low carb and walk 3 to 4 times a week. I have lost 4 lbs and this is my second week on them. I took 1 in the morning the first week, 2 in the morning the second week that's it .. I feel better is all I can say and I am losing pounds slow the right way.All my weight is in the middle and I am 5"3 140.
I will be happy to be 125 or 130. This is the only thing that has EVER brought my weight moving down. It's a keeper.
I think I'll try slimquick it sounds convincing I'll update u guys only for women talking to the boys hear
I started 2 days ago, and i notice im not hungry, i do feel anxious, nervous and irritated at times. i do notice the boost but not to much of aa let down of energy. frequent trips to the bathroom also...when you take make sure its on the empty stomach or things will not go well.
i started using slimquick about 2 weeks ago. i lose like 4 pounds on just the 7 day cleanser. i will start slim quick caplets tomoro. one thing i did notice qith slim quick cleanser is that i had frequent trips to the bathroom every day. and i REALLY recomend taking a full glass of water with it. wen i first started, i was barely taking any water and i felt dizzy and nauseos. so drink a lot of water! o and this product is ONLY for girls.
I just started slimquick powder mix today. I am kind of confused on how to take it! I took it on an empty stomach now what?
thnks i think i'm going to try slimquick wish me luck!!!
I just started Slimquick today and i already notice the energy improvement (I worked 4 shifts at the dairy, 4 am-630 pm over the weekend with little sleep last night) yet i feel fine with no jitters. I also have noticed the frequent trips to the bathroom, normally i have trouble with bms and this has already allowed me to go twice today causing me to feel much better. I'll let you know what happens in a couple weeks.
I am only 20, but i have always had trouble with weight since i was in middle school. Always been the athletic but kind of chubby girl... do you think it is okay to take slimquick even if i am only 20?
i think 18 is the recommened age, so u should be good.
I was on Alli for about 6 months and lost 45 lbs. I LOVE IT, but its proving to be way to expensive to maintain. I have heard good things about this SlimQuick. I took my first pill today and I have to admit it gave me the jitters pretty badly. Not sure if I will like it, but I will keep you guys updated. I am currently 198 and my goal weight is 145
When you all say that slim quick makes you go to the bathroom more often. About how often does it make you go? And is it controllable? I am a teacher and can't really go to the bathroom immediately when I feel the urge. Thanks for the advice.
Slimquick does wonders, and you don't really have to be the reccomended age, it's like anti-depressants, recommended age is only a guideline. I started a medication which made me gain 50 pounds and I'm only 16, 5'6. Slimquick is definately getting me back on the right track, I'm cutting out the snacking and it gives me more energy, I used to eat badly because I was too tired to prepare real food, but I just feel so exhilerated, you must remember to take a lot of water with it though, its because the powder inside mixes with the water and expands. If theres no water it mixes with stomach acid and makes you feel bad. Good luck!
I bought my first box of SlimQuick yesterday and plan to start taking it on Monday! I am 20 and 145 lbs at 5' just want to back to a healthy size around 125 or so! After reading all the feedback I am very excited! I am already active and try to eat fairly healthy so hopefully this will be the nudge i need to drop the extra pounds! Thanks for all the honesty and I will let you know how it goes! Wish me luck!
I have been taking SlimQuick for about three days now and I am truly impressed, although I was quite skeptical at first. The first day or so you do void more frequently, but it helps to get rid of all the water weight. I had an instant energy boost which has helped me get through school, work, and a thirty to forty minute workout. Also, I have noticed quite a difference in my appetite. I have not had as many cravings, have altogether stopped the frequent snacking, AND stayed fuller longer. I plan on weighing myself to see if there are any results after one week. The only thing I reccommend is taking it exactly as directed on the package. This is a great product so far! :)
im 18 do you think this is ok for me?

Slim Quick doesn't work. I'm taking the slimquick with hoodia and it's suppose to suppress your hunger and it doesn't, I'm still always hungry. And it's not helping with my weight loss, I'm dieting and exercising but yet still no results. It's a scam, don't try it, it will not work. I've even went to their website and the comments they have (the positive ones) don't say its helped them lose weight. It's just helped them during their period to not get bloated. So it's a scam it doesn't help women lose weight!!!!
