Hello Bought 300 = 8mg Epherdrine Tablets today.

Im going to start taking them tomorrow.

Im about 215 Pounds and about 5.7 - Can anyone give me any advice on how many i should be taking a day i want to loose some weight for holiday. Does the ECA Stack work for weightloss.

Please help thank you.

I go on holiday on the 5th July have i got enough time?
 
Here's some good advice:

Throw the Epherdrine in the bin, start eating properly and get some exercise.

Weight loss drugs don't work.
 
Agree with San. Ephedrine is not a magic bullet. It's not going to help at all unless you moderate your eating.

It would be foolish to say ephedra doesn't work... it works its just not always the best for your health if you take too much.... if any weight loss pill has EVER worked, it would be ephedra.

They don't work. They may work temporarily and okay you may drop a couple stone. But are you going to take them for the rest of your life? The moment you're off them you will gain it all back anyway. The only real solution is eating healthy and being active.

If we was wanting to support people using temporary boosts that could harm your health and has no long lasting effects, we would suggest crash diets. While we are at it, how about suggesting detox teas? How about we also suggest throwing up after each meal?

Indeed! and I've heard heroin works wonders too!

Ephedrine is an addictive stimulant, it's legal to buy unlike it's cousins, cocaine, heroine, MDMA, etc. It will artificially increase your energy and make your out-of-condition body work harder than it's accustomed to, which can result in a break down, heart attack, stroke, kidney failure, or death. T

Don't fool yourself, it does nothing for weight loss. Loosing weight from taking drugs isn't really losing weight, is it? It's called wasting, cancer and AIDS patience suffer from wasting too.

Take the sage advice of others and throw it away.
 
If you feel like placing that in the same grouping as other harmful dieting tricks is worth a bad rep, feel free. I'm not changing what I said.

We try to push and support safe and healthy ways to lose weight. Ephedrine might be 'ok' according to some for short term ideas, it is still dangerous. There was no joking in my statement. It was not done with a smile on my face. I'm dead serious. If we are going to start supporting people using Ephedrine for weight loss, why not open the doors to all the other temporary and dangerous ideas?

Not saying anything related to bulimia in any form is just sweeping it under the rug. To me, it's just as dangerous as Ephedrine use for weight loss.

I never said one should take it, I said it works, which is not a lie. It does work in the sense it is pretty much like crack and you don't want to eat so you lose a lot of weight.

Like I said, I did not recommend it nor say it was the way to go or anything, simply said is DOES work and if you read about it, it does... does that make it safe? Nope, but I never said that it was either.

Reply above applies to your remark too. I simply said it works, just as I have agreed that that stupid medifast plan WORKS too.... but that does not mean I would suggest it nor recommend it. I never said it was safe, nor did I ever tell him to take it. I was simply stating what is fact that people that use it DO get results... and not just small results but overwhelming results. So again, did I say it was safe? No. Did I say that is what you should use? NO.

I agree- but in short term they do make you drop weight. Is the best way to go to slowly drop the weight through a healthy diet and exercise? Absolutely. I don't argue that point because that gives the best results, is the healthiest way, and produces long term results. But, in the short term is does work, but that does not mean people should use it.
 
You are right. You didn't directly say that he should take it. Just like when we said you could take heroin, crash diets, throwing up or other weight loss pills.

Sorry if I offended anyone. I would never condone, suggest, or knowingly imply that people should take ephedra (or heroin, resort to crash diets, purge, or take pills) or imply that any of these are safe. If you have to obtain it illegally, question your mental health, or compromise your safety for a certain methodology to lose weight then that method is not a good one.

So, no I don't think any of the listed things are safe or should be utilized to aid in weight loss.
 
I've never actually tried weight loss pills before, but taking on board on what everyone has suggested - that weight loss pills only offer a short term weight loss affect. Then would'nt weight loss pills be an appropriate approach to JacobR as his main concern is to just lose weight for an upcoming holiday? Then after the holiday, resort back to a healthy balanced diet with regular exercise as dieting pills are in general a health damaging alterative to weight loss in the long run?

It's addictive, so no, it's not a good idea.

I don't think anyone is categorically offended. It's clear that you aren't overtly advocating addictive drugs to lose weight.

In the spirit of information sharing; I would however take issue with your legal/illegal mental health comment. The criteria for approving drugs is, as you may or may not be aware, a source of great debate.

Whether a drug is deemed legal or illegal, available by prescription or over-the-counter, does not account for it's safety nor does it speak to anyone's mental health for their decision to take it. Some will take a medicine simply because it's for sale, without any regard for the faulty system which led it to be there.

This is just one example, and superficial at that, but [link removed], marketed as a cold medicine, comes to mind. It's a strong and effective medicine which happens to have psychoactive ingredients. If you read the ingredients and potential side affects, few could help but wonder what the criteria for a "safe" and "legal" drug mixture is. Would you give your child LSD? Speed? Meth? No? Then why would you give your kid this "medicine"? Moreover, why would the government ever approve this specific elixir for sale, over-the-counter no less? The answer is money. The pharmaceutical lobby is very powerful.

Only recently, [link removed] changed their formula to make their product "more accessible to consumers". It turns out meth-labs were using this product to make meth and while the makers of Dimetapp were okay with that, the government wasn't. The formula wasn't changed because the previous one was deemed unsafe or illegal, rather because the government banned the "ease of access" to medicines which had the psychoactive ingredients hoping to curb illicit drug making. The formula still includes a type of addictive stimulant, but the meth-heads can't use it to make their drugs.

In short, I don't buy into the legal/illegal argument. The system and criteria for categorizing drugs is entirely faulty, driven by corporate greed, and shouldn't be used as a measure of mental health.

We don't question the mental health of people who implicitly trust powerful government agencies who work in co-operation with powerful, greedy, extremely wealthy corporations, do we? Or do we? :hat:
