Now where did I put my abs?

clcollins · 27-10-2004, 11:54 AM

Hi everyone, at 32years old and the un-proud owner of a flabby gut, I've decided to pull my finger out, get to the gym and turn things around.

1st goal is to cut my weight by one and a half stone (fat) and from there I want to start building some serious muscle.

Looking forward to getting some good advice from these pages.

First question is: do any the "fat burning" pills actually work?

welcome to the board clcollins

how much do you weigh now?

the only fat burning pills that work are ones that contain ephedra,ephedrine.

most of the others are really just a waste of money..

Hi Steve, thanks for the reply.

My current weight is 17st, but I am 6ft 7ins, so the weight is not as bad as it first seems.

For years I was 14st 7lbs, then late twenties early thirties I found that I started putting on weight, being bone idle didn't help.

I'd like to drop 2st in weight, and then start building up muscle, I reckon at 32 it's now or never to have a real go at body building.

I tried Maximuscel Thermobol, the effects were awful, nausea and being hyper, stopped taking it after just one day.

I've read several articles that say ephedra, ephedrine are not good for you. Also some 'fat burning' products specifically state that they don't contain ephedra, ephedrine, it reads as a sales point, ie, it's a good thing not to have it.

Cheers, Chris.
