Stacker 3 contains Chitosan, which is known for its ability
to bind some fat in your food, allowing some of these fats
to pass through your system. Stacker 3 can help you burn
fat and can give you increased energy and stamina. When
used in addition to your reduced calorie diet and exercise
program, Stacker 3 can help you achieve your weight loss
goals.
It seems like a lot of people who don't need this type of diet aid are taking them anyway, then ranting about how crappy it is. This doesn't help me. Why would someone take this just to lose a couple lbs? Why would someone at only 125 lbs who already works out 5x week be taking these? This person needs to read a bit about human biology what a calorie is. Anyone who actually gets sick on these is either someone who doesn't need them or someone who would've been told by a dr. not to take them. I mean, a heart murmur? I can't imagine that even an idiot with a heart murmur would take these.
My sister takes only 1 a day, and she needs to lose over 100 lbs. It's working wonders for her. I need to lose over 50 lbs and plan on starting them soon. I'll be sure to follow up on my review. And about the #lbs we need to lose, this is just to get down to 135-145 to look normal. Bottom line, I say, is that unless you need to lose like 30+ lbs, you would have to be an idiot to take these, as well as if you continue to take them after they've made you sick. Do me a favor, don't write a review for something like this unless you have actually followed the instructions and more importantly, consulted with someone as to whether or not you should even be taking something like this, please!

What a Disappointment...
I've read many reviews about this product and it seems to go both ways with people, few with excellent results. From what I've seen the majority had nothing but terrible things to say. I am one with the majority. If you have any tolerance to caffeine this item will do nothing what so ever for you (at least in my case). It made me cranky and made me sleepy. There was no energy burst or any good feeling what so ever associated with it. I'm going back to a company I trust like Maximum Human Performance (MHP). I've tried MHP's Anadrox and it works awesome. My sights are set now on using MHP's Dren. It couldn't be any worse than this junk.

I'm 21, 5'5" and weigh 145 currently (my heaviest) I went away to school and gained 10 pounds, between eating healthy and regular exercise it just wasn't coming off quick enough so I decided to try these out. I took them for about 5 days...NO weight loss...very frustrating. They definitely give you an energy boost, you get used to it after awhile. But I also felt irritable, and I got annoyed easily. I'll finish up my pack and see if there are any results...seems like everyone that takes them gets results quickly but I didn't notice any on the scale! guess I'll watch to see what happens!

Great product!!
I am 5'5, was 130 lbs and have been taking Stacker 3 no ephedra for 2 weeks. I have lost about 7 lbs. I worked out a few times, but I am not extremely active. I feel great though. My skin actually looks better. I have taken other pills in the past and they have always made me very jittery. These are fine. I take two pills, one after breakfast and one after lunch, and I actually drink coffee in the morning. Astonishingly, I don't have trouble sleeping. Obviously I'm not sensitive to caffeine. If you are, I wouldn't take it.

Does what it says but still feels unhealthy
I bought these diet pills a few years ago and took them and then stopped. I still had them and I decided to start taking them a few days ago. The first day I took it this week on Monday, well I was on my way to school and got so dizzy and nauscious and then it was a feeling similar to being on cocaine or ecstacy. I was antsy and class and just wanted to exercise. I didn't get tired at all during my workout and had endless energy but eventually i crashed in the evening. I couldnt sleep at all and i had a headache and felt like i was hungover or sketching out. today i took one for the energy purposes and it was not as bad today as it was on monday.. i had lots of energy but i still feel dizzy and nauscious. it feels like speed or drugs which i hate. also my heart feels irregular and i dont think it is healthy to take these pills. my heart feels like it is beating out of its chest. it does curb your appetite but i dont know if this is all worth it?? honestly this pill is similar to ecstacy in so many ways i truly wonder what is in them lol... i guess if u want to risk the side effects then do it. it will make u lose weight but at what cost?? i would recommend just using them on the days u need a boost.

Marine in Iraq, 20lbs 4 weeks
Lost 20lbs in 30days.
First off, I did diet and exercise too, and I already had a significant amount of muscle. I got to Iraq about a month and a half ago. I hit the gym for about 2 hours a day, at least every other day and have run over 100 miles in the last 30 days. Hydroxicut hardcore was able to help me get out of bed in the morning and to the gym. Probably because of the caffine. I ate healthy but compleat meals 3 times a day with healty snacks under 100 calories in between. I don't know if they work but I've never lost 20 pnds of fat in a month before and I work out a lot. I think they helped. I look a lot better physicaly too.

curbs your appetite but makes you sick
I have been taking them for about 4 days now and I take a stacker3 after each meal, averaging about 3 a day, I haven't slept in about 2 days and after taking each pill I feel sick to my stomach and like I might throw up. I get fainting spells and dizziness often as it is without a diet pill, and the dizziness feeling has just escalated with these pills. It does curb my appetite, but the problem is it makes you feel sick so that you feel the need to eat more to balance your sugar level. I'm giving it a couple more days for my body to adapt to the strength of the pill, but I have learned my lesson not to take them after around 3 or 4 p.m. or else you will not sleep.

GREAT... for those NOT sensitive to caffeine.
I just began taking Stacker 3 this week. I'm now on day 4, taking one capsule after each meal, which comes to three capsules per day, the maximum recommended dosage. I have completely come off of my morning and afternoon coffee, as there is no need for them while taking Stacker. I was drinking a triple espresso in the morning and a double in the afternoon containing 300mg and 200mg of caffeine respectively. I have been on that regiment for a couple of years now so I have a high tolerance to caffeine. The point is, that even with my high tolerance, after a couple of days I can still feel the rush from the Stacker which has 225mg of just caffeine, not to mention the other stimulants contained in the "Proprietary Blend". So for anyone just starting out with diet pills be warned that Stacker 3 is a serious source of energy and will increase your metabolism, but there are definate side effects, so start out slow until you know how you will react. Overall I am very pleased with the results and it's far cheaper than espresso.

Dangerous!!! It should be taken off the shelf.
I took stacker3 for less than 3 days according to the directions. On the third day, my heart rate started racing to the point I could feel it pounding out of my chest. That lasted about 10 minutes and then my heart rate dropped so low that I could barely breathe. It went in waves of about 1 minutes each from an extremely elevated heart rate to an extremely low heart rate. Eventually I was shaking uncontrolably. After a trip to the emergency room, I found out that the product was causing palpatations. They told me to stop taking it immediately because I was at risk for a heart attack. I am 25 years old. I've taken different diet pills in the past and never experienced anything negative. It's been 3 days now and I still feel exhausted. I can litterally feel my heart hurting inside my chest. If I move to fast or try to do too much I feel like I could pass out still. Losing a little weight isn't worth the chance of losing your life or having to deal with these side effects that have lasted for days now. This diet pill is extremely dangerous and should be pulled from the shelf. For those of you who are skeptical of this review, ask yourself why it is so much different than every other diet pill? Because the maker crosses the lines of safety to make money. Please for your own health don't use this product. I am a healthy 25 year old woman. I only weigh 125 lbs., and I work out at least 5 days a week. If it could do this to me, imagine what it could do to a slightly older adult who isn't in the best physical health. It is dangerous!!!

I just started yesterday taking these pills. Ive been reading about it on the internet and It tells you to stay away from wine and cheese. I haven't been able to find out why. Im curious I eat alot of cheese and Im alittle worried. May be Im just freaking out for no reason. I hope so anyway. I have heard of alot of poeple who take stacker3 and have very good luck with it. So I guess I'll give it a try. Im 155 lbs now and only want to lose about 20 lbs I think that would be a good weight. I used to be 200 lbs and did slim fast but that stuff works but taste like crap and I want to be able to eat food.

Great if you use it properly
I actually just started using this 2 days ago. I have already lost 4 pounds. I will tell you my energy is through the roof right now which kinda sucks because I have a desk job so I'm kind of antsy at work, but I sure am getting a lot done!! My appetite is very curbed. I can't even imagine eating a whole lean cuisine at this point. I think its really important to try to wear yourself out before you go to bed because otherwise you'll be wide awake. The great news is this gives you a little extra motivation to hit the gym or at least take your dog for a walk! I have had slight headaches and it is VERY important to drink enough water. I have been doing it so that I eat as much as I am hungry for and then I take my pill. If I start to feel a little bit sick, I eat a little something extra and it goes away. Today for lunch I had a yogurt, took my pill, felt a little sick so I had a banana and I feel great now! I did have a near death experience last night though (by almost hitting a bunch of deer while driving) and it took me a long time to calm down after that. My heart was racing and I was shaking really bad for about 15 minutes... then I was fine.

the only reason im not rating it a 5 star is because its not PERFECT, but damn near perfect. i took about a one month supply of stacker 3 and it worked wonders. GET THIS PEOPLE.... from 218 to 175 and i was ripped. so many people were telling me >>omg man this is unhealthy you cant lose this much weight in that short amount of time stop starving yourself. well the only problem witht hat is is that I WASNT STARVING MYSELF. 4 HEALTHY meals a day. the first 2 meals wee followed by two stacker pills and lifting in the afternoons and sometimes cardio in the mornings. this prouct is amazing if taken correctly. i didnt drink any soda or coffee ...or tea, but i did get light headed after my first serving. now its 6 months later and im still shredded and hab=vnt taken the pill for 5 months..(i just make sure to stay eating healthy and excersising)THANK YOU prducers of stacker you guys kick ass

Hi, I've been taking stacker since april of last year off and on. Just one tablet a day. while I have lost a significant amount of weight- I do from time to time experience awful stomach pains... nothing serious though. Also I feel it has caused me to have an obsession with my weight. I'm not blaming the diet pills. It is just something to consider before taking them.

Stacher 3 for migraine??
Hi, I started taking Stacker 3 for making exercises and I it was great. But I had many problems because of my little paranoia and every time my pulse went up I though may be I will get a heart attack. The thing is that I realized that when I take stacker I have no problems with headache and migraine any more. Not only that I have more energy during the day but also I can control the several headaches I had my all life. Does any body know if you can take these pills for a long-term? I am talking about just 1 pill each day.

No, you're not pregnant... You're on Stacker 3!!
I started eating a lot over the summer and decided to take Stacker 3 to help me to lose some weight. Wow... what a nightmare.
So, it was my first day on the stuff, and I didn't know what to expect. A few hours after taking the pill, I became nauseous, feverish, dizzy, weak, and tired. I kept having to drink water to rehydrate myself, so i was peeing all day long.
Well anyway, with all those symptoms, I thought I might've been catching the flu or something, so I went to see my doctor. He asked me what kind of symptoms were bothering me, and I tell him. Then he SCARES the CRAP out of me by telling me, "You might be pregnant."
PREGNANT?!! I'm not ready to be a mom! I'm too young for that!
So, the whole day i'm FREAKING OUT:
crying,
screaming,
and swearing. (CRAZY mood-swings)
I kept taking the pills and I still felt the same.
A few days later, I get my period.
I'm like, "What's the deal?!"
So, I see my doctor.
I check online.
I find out more about this diet pill...
Turns out, I'm not pregnant; I'm on Stacker 3.

great fat burner!
i started taking this fat burner 5 weeks ago damn is all i can say
i eat 2 overmedium eggs with 2 bacon strips and 1 stacker after that and i hit the gym 4 hrs (lifting weights cardio and a bunch of stuff)
after that i still have energies for my afternoon workout 2 more hrs into mma
i just recently started taking 2 instead of one and im having trouble sleeping at night :s
thats the only bad thing i found about that :s
i was pushing a size 15-16 and i was pissed, i had never been that big in my life, even 9 months pregnant...So i bought a small pack of stacker 3's at wal mart in desperation... none of my clothes are fitting and i was tired of getting bigger.. Since i have been taking stacker 3's for a total of 1 wk now, i have lost close to 15 pounds as of today. Hallelujah!!! But the first day i took them, i only took one b/c i couldn't take any more than that without getting really sick.. I didn't feel good the first day i took them, but i didn't care, i wanted to continue to take them to see what would happen.. After the 2nd day i was able to start taking 2 a day, i don't take one after 2 pm though or you won't be able to go to sleep at a decent time...You will have lots of energy during the day to work out and get your unfinished work done..Once they start wearing off you might feel a little sick... My plan is to take these short term so i am just trying to get through all of this right now....Each day seems to get better....I was SO HAPPY to see the scales this morning.. Last thurs i was at 188 pounds on the scale, and today 1 wk later i am at 173... 15 pounds in 1 wk.. That works for me!!! Now i just hope it continues, but that is a great start for a diet... I have not been eating as much, in fact I don't eat very much at all.. And you will drink A TON of water on these, which is a good thing, i don't drink sodas at all, and i just drink 1 cup of coffee in the mornings.. B/C i see such a signigant change in my weight already i don't even want to eat any unhealthy or fattening food.. i am losing weight too fast to ruin it now... I definately want to get to a size 9 by next Thursday.. But in the long run i am hoping to at least get to a size 6 again.!!! I was happy last night when i went to JCPenney and was able to buy a saize 11/12 in jr's sizes.. It might just be the brand, but that felt freakin awesome for a wk, and last thursday I could barely fit into my size 14's...This is a great product to boost a diet, but i wouldn't recommend it for long term, but hopefully it will give you better eating habits for a lifetime....

I started taking this about two weeks ago, I'm a 20 year old female that weighs 148. I lost 3lbs in one day! It def. will keep you up ALL night. I now only take these once after breakfast and once after lunch. I do feel like I'm going to throw up after taking them --this may last for 30mins - an hour. I have experienced a little bit of pain in my stomach that may last for a few seconds. I do not take these pills at all on days that I plan to work out -- it makes me feel sick for the rest of the night.

Stacker 3
I have only been taking Stacker 3 for about a week, It seems to be working in the means of giving me energy, but I haven't quite been able to figure out if I'm losing fat and weight or not, I take one in the morning after breakfast and it gives a lot of energy for my morning workout regimen, and then one after lunch and it gives me energy for the rest of the day. I have't felt any uncomfortable side effects yet, I took one and had a bit of a stomach ache but I'm not so sure that was from the Stacker. I do not recomend taking one after dinner because it does make it hard to sleep, I didn't sleep for almost two days because of this. Yet I find it does work nicely as of right now.

Stacker? more like stripper!
I tried these tablets after regular dieting and excersise could only get me to 16st 13lbs but i have taken these for 8 days and have lost 9 pounds, well worth the money as they were one of the cheapest products i could find.
The boost of energy i get from these is superb i wake up and in 30 minutes of taking it im in 'go' mode.
The best bit for me was the appetite suppresent angle, i could go all day on just a snack some days, which im not saying is healthy but doind this is fine for me and i have had none of the side effects
As im only 20 and usually quite active anyway the side effects dont really bother me and shoudlnt as im only using this aid for my 'beach body', its better than my beached whale body.
i think these supplements are great but should be taken seriously, it does come with a poison warning and isnt approved by the FDA.
They work for me and would reccomend to anyone provided its safe for them to do so

1/2 dosage for me
I started with the recommended dosage and like most of you had the mood swings ( I also took the ephedra pills as well ). I had to wean down from daily usage to just when I need them and finally (where I am now ) to a half a pill. I have to literally open them and put them in a beverage because the first half will do that and then the second I don't have to empty half because I have already done that. I don't do well with caffeine because I have tons of energy as it is ( I exercise alot and most people don't believe that you can get energy from workouts~~ It's true ~~ ).

Temporary Insanity???
I've been taking Stacker products off and on for the past 10 years. The first time, in the late 90's, was with Ephedra. The energy was priceless and helped me tremendously to not only loose 100 lbs., but give me energy for a high-stress career and what seemed like added strength for working out. In 2000 I stopped taking it when I found out I was pregnant. I began again a couple of years after giving birth, but was concerned about the long-term side effects. With a new daughter I didn't feel the gamble was worth it. Then, several months ago I was desperate for energy and started taking them again. I now know it wasn't the Ephedra that made me "crazy," but something else. I notice when I take Stacker 2, I have more energy than with 3. But, I've also noticed that I can get EXTREMELY angry and impatient more so with the 3's. It's scary. I also notice more headaches with Stacker products in general. Quite frankly, the long-term effects worry me. Unfortunately, I rely on them for energy more than anything else.
