Where to start?

[Diamond_Rogue]

I am embarking on a mission to recover my former glory. Ok, so it wasn't really GLORY, but it was at least better than the physical state I am in now. I would like some advice on where to start supplement wise. I have only had experience with one product.

After having a child and topping out at 185 (I am 5' 6" tall, medium bone structure) after coming home from the hospital, I started on Hydroxycut. I only worked out MAYBE 2 times a week, 20 minutes tops. I invested in a Total Gym (yes, that infomercial w/Chuck Norris and Christy Brinkley) and mainly did the upper/lower body excercises. I got back down to my pre-pregnancy weight of 140 pounds. It took me around 6 months to accomplish. I kept the weight off for a year and a half then went through a depressed/lazy phase which has left me at the 165 range. I am determined to not only reach my previous weight level but to improve my overall health. I have read numerous testimonies and such, as well as the descriptions with the fat loss combos and am just as confused as when I started. I intend to commit three days a week, at least 30 minutes to cardio. The other two days to strength training. Maybe one day to do both. I would like some advice as to what products would be good to start with.

I would say that your diet could be one of your best bets to keep an eye on.

Mix it with cardio, and your strength training, you'll be set, don't really need any supplements, fat burners.. they do help. but it's great when you can do it alone too

IMO ~

Congrats on the decision to get in shape--you won't regret it!

Just start with a good multi-vitamin and a good eating plan.

Fatburners are not magic pills and it is easy to become hooked on them. I know a guy who is at 6% or less body fat and cannot get through a day without his Hydroxycut. Be careful--before you take ANYTHING read, read, read, some of that stuff is dangerous.

Hydroxycut is a good choice.

But first things go first, in order to lose fat, you will need to upgrade your diet. Without a good diet, all the supplements are worthless.

Cardio is also a good choice. PM me if you feel like gaining more information about losing weight.
Thanks,
