ephedra, epedra extract and lipodrene

[*dirtymartini*]

Hi guys!

I used to post under this same name (but without the little asterisk symbols) but I cannot get my old name and password to work. I had about 200 posts previously.

I LOVED phen but now cannot get it anymore because my doctor will not prescribe it and it is impossible to get REAL pills over the internet. If anyone knows where I can get real phen, or a doctor that will prescribe it to someone one who is 5'4" and 143 pounds, please PM me. I was down to 128 at this time last year, and I am very angry at myself for gaining the weight back, and I do not want to gain anymore!

So, after reading these boards the past few weeks, I decided to order lipodrene with ephedra from acnedoctor.com. I got that site from someone who posted here on this board (sorry I cannot remember who!) I just took TWO lipodrene (took 1/2 at a time over the course of 2 hours) and I fell NOTHING, nada, zip! I see that is says "ephedra extract" on the bottle, which I am thinking now...maybe that is not the same as ephedra? I am very disappointed and if anyone has the name of another energy boosting diet pill they want to share, please let me know.

Thanks for any help you may have!

i think the bottle says take one before meals

take the whole thing and it should work like a dream

i think they might actually control my hunger better than the phen

Hi friendofgreen!

LOL, when I first read your response, I thought you were saying take the WHOLE BOTTLE. LOL!

Well, I took two, over the course of two hours. Half every 30 minutes. I am thinking about taking another half now. Do you really think taking a whole one will make a difference?

I would LOVE to get the effects you got/are getting. I skipped my morning cup of coffee because I was scared, but now I am wondering if I should have some?

Does yours say "ephedra extract" on the ingredient list?

[friendofgreen]

i don't have the bottle with me--but probably

i get them from fixfitness.com

but yeah--i take an entire pill in the morning and at lunch and then usually around 4:30 (so i don't eat a huge dinner)

i don't think coffee had much effect on me--but i don't drink it often

no real side effects other than dry mouth (drink more water bonus) and increased sweating (nothing horrible just a little extra deodorant)

[friendofgreen]

oh and how are you breaking them in half

mine are yellow octagon shaped--never tried to break one, but seems it would be impossible

[wantzerostress]

I have the same yellow octagon ones...I felt they did nothing for me. When my phen runs out I may try them again.

[friendofgreen]

sometimes i take two--if i'm really having one of those "i need the lap band" binge-eating moments

I have a pill cutter that I bought at the drug store. It works great! Slices it right in half.

I will check out the website you mentioned, maybe they have different ingredients.

I took 3 this morning and 1 just now and NOTHING! I am so bummed! Hope they work better for you, wantzerostress!

Thanks for the input, anyway.

[friendofgreen]

huh

i find 2 lipodrene work better than the phen--at least for me

i lost my first 100lbs on stacker 3--then they banned um the *******s

[*dirtymartini*]

That loss is so impressive. Congrats to you! You should be so proud of yourself. Was their ephedra in the stacker? I am so bummed I am feeling nothing from the lipodrene.

I read online that there is the Lipodrene SR without ephedra, regular Lipodrene with 25 mg of ephedra and then this Lipodrene Lite with only 10 mg of ephedra.

I've been thinking about getting some just for occasional maintenence as I'm just going off of phen, but I'm scared I would get some fake stuff and/or it wouldn't do anything. Ditrymartini do you know how many mg of ephedra are supposed to be in yours? I'm totally shocked it wouldn't be having an effect on you, I heard ephedra is pretty powerful stuff.

[friendofgreen]

the site i get them from is legit--i've been ordering them for a while and the shipping is fast

the original stackers had ephedra in them also--but they are kinda overpriced on the site (they stopped making them and are hard to get)

i get my lipodrene from them and they work great for me

the company is in brooklyn--(at least thats what the labels say)--but i usually get it a day or 2 after i order

Hi Italian Indian!

Well, that's what I am wondering and posted...is "ephedra extract" and "ephedra" the same thing? Because this Lipodrene I ordered and received has 25 mg of ephedra *extract..* Because I took this and I am not feeling anything, I am thinking "extract" is weaker than true "ephedra.

I took 3 (yes, that's right, I said THREE) this morning with a cup of coffee. NOTHING!

[ItalianIndian]

Try getting them off of the site friendofgreen suggested. Everything I look at about Hi Tech Pharmaceutical's Lipodrene says in the ingredients "25 mg Ephedra" or "10 mg Ephedra". Not sure if that is accurate or what is supposed to be on the bottle though.

Another site I heard is good is shop 4 vitamins. That may be where I will order mine from.

It just doesn't make sense that you could take 3 of them with a cup of coffee and not feel anything, my best guess would be it's a good fake and that you should try to get some off of a good site.

Keep us posted for sure though!

[*dirtymartini*]

Thanks, maybe I will try that site.

[friendofgreen]

either that or they are the ephedra free ones

if you took 3 with coffee you should be bouncing off the walls

[*dirtymartini*]

You think maybe they stuck some ephedra free ones in an "ephedra extract" bottle? I guess that's possible. Trust me, I was scared yesterday, but when I kept taking half, then another half, then another half...until I took 3. This time, I took, two, then 30 min later, took another one.

I will have to try the site you ordered from.
