For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I have been working out for the past year and a half. I've taken many kinds of diet pills, and let me tell you, this is by far the BEST thing. I've lost 35 lbs, and I feel wonderful. I do feel a little jittery, but I can handle that. It's great, and I hope it never goes away. Love it!"

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I have been taking Fastin for a little over two weeks. I started at 150, and I'm currently 140. Fastin causes me not to be hungry as much and gives me energy. I do feel a little jittery sometimes and have a funny taste in my mouth. Overall, I'm pleased with my weight loss and will continue using Fastin."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I started taking Fastin a few days ago after I read so many good reviews. I must say that I did take the advice of so many others and started with half of the pill. It seemed to put me in the best mood and my energy level went through the roof. Not to mention, I wasn't hungry at all. Yes, it did make me feel a bit jittery so I drank a lot of water and had to pee quite often. Don't drink anything with caffeine in it while taking this because it makes you even more jittery. Plus, if you work in the heat, be careful because I felt like I was having hot flashes, but wow, it is definitely worth it. I lost a couple of pounds already. Well worth it for me."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I took this and it's the best thing I have ever tried. The first couple of days I went by the directions, then I doubled the dose. And I lost 20 pounds in 2 weeks. It did make me feel very jittery and my heart rate was going 90 to nothing, but I was determined to lose weight! And a little information, DO NOT, I repeat (DO NOT), take Fastin before you get in a tanning bed. Tan first, then take it. It made me very, very strange in a bad way. I'm no doctor but when I increased my dose, I had the shaking and the increased heart rate. But it never harmed me."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I’ve been taking Fastin on and off for about 5 years. I always take half a pill in the morning and the second half in the afternoon. It definitely kills appetite cravings, and I have no desire for late-night snacking. Drink a lot of water. It can affect your mood. There have been days when I feel just so angry just by someone looking at me funny. It increases heart rate and gives a jittery feeling, but those side effects subside after a couple of weeks. It definitely works. I’ve lost 15 pounds in a month. Eat right and exercise and take this with precaution. I don’t recommend first-time users taking a whole pill. You will feel like you are having an anxiety attack."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I was stuck at the same weight for over 2 weeks. I was working out for over 60 minutes a day. I decided to try Fastin, and within days started losing weight again. I have been taking it for 5 weeks and have lost 10 lbs. That's good enough to get my approval. It really helps me not be hungry throughout the day and gives a noticeable increase in energy. I have noticed some jitteriness about 1 hour after taking it, but it does not last long, and to me, it's worth the weight loss."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "Fastin is really a great appetite suppressant! I have taken it for a few days. Yes, it does make you jittery, and your heart rate is increased, but for me, it wasn’t overwhelming. Unfortunately, the only reason I couldn’t give it a 10 is because I do feel nauseous throughout the day, which makes me not want to eat any food and drink tons of water!"

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "Fastin is a good appetite suppressant. When first taking it, there are side effects of heartbeat increases and jitteriness. That goes away after a few days. Fastin seems different than other diet pills in that I don't seem to eat the missed calories at night when the meds wear off. Definitely have to move/get active and drink plenty of no-calorie drinks to lose the weight. I'm 49 and have used Fastin on and off over the last 20 years. I've had periods of 60 lbs lost, then I stop paying attention and gain some/all back, especially now at that time in my life when all women have a hard time losing weight. I'm back on the downslide. I don't weigh myself but rather am enjoying the change in how my clothes feel."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "After suffering from bulimia for many years and not being able to control my binge eating, I started taking Fastin. I only take 1 1/2 pills a day (I'm only 115 lbs and not looking for significant weight loss), and that is enough to help me fight my urge to stress eat. In fact, when I was taking 2 pills a day, I found myself forgetting to eat. I still feel a little jittery after taking them."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I made it through 3 days and discarded the bottle. I read the reviews and took the advice of most to only do a half pill. I am glad I did as the effects from just a half pill were enough to scare me. Within about 15 minutes, it felt like my heart was going to explode out of my chest. This lasted about 30 minutes, then it calmed down to a less fearful level. I felt pretty jittery and certainly like I was on 'something' for several hours. I took a 1/2 tablet twice a day, ate first to lessen the side effects. By day three, and again my heart just going nuts, and thinking how silly this will be if I have to go to the hospital, I said no more. Threw away the bottle. It will be easier to just not eat ice cream at midnight! :-)"

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "Did curb my appetite and increased my energy tremendously for the workout, but on Day 2, 1 pill, my heart was beating so fast, and I felt so jittery. It scared me. Heart slowed down after about 45 min. Not sure if I will get the nerve to try another pill."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "Fastin is an excellent dietary supplement for me. In the morning, right as I wake up, I take the little guy. The pill tastes like what I would imagine what baking soda would, but oh well, I am not sucking on it. It takes about 20-30 minutes to give the first kick. That kick is the rush that says 'I need to get moving or I need to get to the gym.' The first time I took the pill, I did get a little jittery and nauseous, but once I started working out and drank water, I started to feel fine. About an hour in, I hit phase 2. Phase 2 is the spunk and mood booster. I feel awesome and amazing like I know what I am working for. Again, the first day I felt a little dizzy and euphoric. Then there is phase 3, the come down. Drink water and eat a solid. I lost 100 lbs."
