Something New - Pills


Got me some System-Six today. I've never tried it before and haven't really been taking anything other than gummy vitamins and L-Carnitine... lately in the liquid form rather than tablets because I like it better.

I can tell you that I lose MUCH more when I skip a meal and take Carnitine instead. I can tell the fat I lose is a bit hard on my body, but goddamn it does work.

Back when I went from 155 to 128, I did take some weightloss supplements too. I have no idea what they were or if they're even legal anymore...hehehe... but I do know that they helped a lot. I'm hoping to notice a difference using this stuff.

Irwin Naturals official System-Six pitch:

Metabolism Boosters & Carb Metabolizer*

System Six® is a complete formula that provides six support systems to assist with weight loss:

  1. Exercise and Endurance - Garcinia cambogia delivers a powerful extract called Hydroxycitric Acid (HCA). HCA may act as a metabolism booster and in one preliminary study significantly increased exercise endurance.*
  2. Energy - The botanicals yerba maté, guarana and cola extract work to support energy levels and provide natural caffeine.*
  3. Mood - Standardized St. John’s Wort extract is included in this formula to support brain chemicals that influence mood.*
  4. Metabolism - A combination of B vitamins helps convert food into energy to fuel metabolism. These nutrients are necessary for the breakdown of fats and proteins.*
  5. Carbohydrate Support - Chromium helps support carbohydrate metabolism and assists in the breakdown of carbohydrates into glucose which provides energy for the body.* Along with a healthy diet and exercise program, chromium can help support healthy blood sugar.*
  6. Antioxidants - Green Tea and other nutrients in System Six help protect cell health and provide nutritional support for the body.* System Six, when combined with a low-calorie diet and exercise program, provides weight loss support to help you meet your goals.*‡

In other news... Scarlet, I like how in your blog posts you answer comments from previous posts. It makes it really easy to see your replies. Much better than just replying to the comment in the comment thread... so I think I'm going to start doing that too.

Scarlet - I had no idea her husband died too. I know he was all involved in her death... wow weird. Let me know if you like the movie.

Gracile - I definitely recommend it. I'd love to hear what you guys think of it. It's definitely on my favorite movies list.

  1. Careful with the St john's wort. It can make the pill ineffective (not properly absorbed) i was taking it and I had spotting mid month
