Guest guest Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 I have always wondered about those and the Monster and whatever energy drinks. I have never drank one. Not sure why. A bit nervous about the effects, I guess.I have been frustrated the past week. I had lost over 2 pounds the first week I was "back on track." Now, I have gained a pound in 2 weeks, although I am exercising, watching portions and all that stuff. Not sure what is wrong. I decided to put away the scale until the end of the month and then see if there is movement in the right direction. Hopefully I will see some differences. I am annoyed that I am so chained to the scale to determine my success/failure.I know I am making much better choices. I know I am exercising. Have a great week everyone! apmleehere@...From: Serena <briteyyez3@...>100-plus Sent: Sun, January 17, 2010 7:25:39 PMSubject: Re: 5 Hour Energy something simillar but not the same thing... is this bottle of stuff they sell at the gym.... it has thermogenesis stuff in it, and ginseng and guarana and caffiene.... and it works great at the gym... there's not a let down period.. low cal low carb and i can honestly feel the difference. zthe thermo stuff a bit unnerving cause i didnt know about it at first.. until it kicked in.... but hey your supposed to sweat at the gym... right? please forgive typos cat laying between me and the laptop ... hard to see harder to type.... and yes i do move him..he moves b ackSerena--- On Sun, 1/17/10, Sapphyre <sapphyreonalosingst reak (DOT) com> wrote:From: Sapphyre <sapphyreonalosingst reak (DOT) com>Subject: 5 Hour Energy"100Plus List" <100-plus@group s.com>Date: Sunday, January 17, 2010, 8:22 PM Saturday while we were at WalMart and at the checkout I saw a bottle of 5 hour energy sitting there, I've been curious about that stuff I see people drinking it at the gym.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 First off, I would put this in the same category as diet pills, and according to the list rules are something not to be promoted here. >something simillar but not the same thing... is this bottle of stuff they sell at the gym.... it has thermogenesis stuff in it, and ginseng and guarana and caffiene.... So it contains stimulants. If someone has high blood pressure or is taking asthma meds, or many other medications, it something they should certainly NOT be drinking!

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 sue i'm not promoting it.... because ....  i dont' even know the name of it...  lol...   and i dont' think it is the same as diet pills because while yes it is an energy booster .... and it does have the thermo stuff... it also doesn't promote weight loss on the bottle.. just the energy boost part. I wouldn't promote anything one  way or the other... because for the most part i know everyone's body is different.... Serena From: Sue in NJ <sue_in_nj@...>Subject: Re: 5 Hour Energy100-plus Date: Monday, January 18, 2010, 8:02 AM  First off, I would put this in the same category as diet pills, and according to the list rules are something not to be promoted here. >something simillar but not the same thing... is this bottle of stuff they sell at the gym..... it has thermogenesis stuff in it, and ginseng and guarana and caffiene....

Guest guest Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 >sue i'm not promoting it I know. It was just a little reminder. Sapphyre has asthma and I wanted to stress how it might affect her meds if she drank this stuff frequently. Also I know that I, and probably a few others here, have high blood pressure, and stuff like this could be deadly. Sue in NJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
