There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
First here is my recommendation on how to take PGX. After reading all the complaints about texture here is how I overcome it.
Buy a water bottle with a large opening, do not use a "sport top" but rather a bottle you'd find at a supplement shop (just don't use any of the filters they have in them) or even any old rubbermaid plastic bottle, ideally something with markers for measurement. Key is one with a larger opening. I've also used plastic water bottles but since they are a pain to clean and a waste to throw out, you are better off with a reusable one.
1.Fill up about 400ml of water, add the PGX mix AFTER i repeat AFTER you fill up your water.
2. DRINK IT FAST. Yes this stuff will have the texture of really thin small gummies sort of like tapioca in bubble tea. If you drink it fast, and I'm talking about drinking 400ml in like 5-10 seconds fast, you won't taste anything besides some minor powder in your drink. If you casually sip it, or wait too long your going to get the full tapioca effect. It is truly unflavored so if you can deal with the texture it is not bad, but best bet is to drink it FAST.
3. Slam 400ml of water right after, not doing so I've found can lead to cotton mouth. Don't sip this 400ml since they recommend you drink water immediately after and the longer you wait, whatever little bit of PGX you didn't drink will quickly thicken up.
4. Eat healthy! :)
5. Don't mix this stuff with food. I'm not even sure why they recommend this, it makes yogurt lumpy, eggs lumpy I haven't found anything that this mixes well with. The granular do not dissolve, they thicken, which this stuff is supposed to do. The instructions say drink water IMMEDIATELY after consuming, which since if it takes someone 5-30 minutes to eat a meal they "sprinkled" this stuff on how could they possibly drink that much water immediately after? I suppose it depends on your definition of immediate.
The positives:
I have been using PGX for just over 2 months and have lost 15 lbs, clothes started fitting better after a few weeks of PGX/Diet/Exercise. Is it magic? No. Will it help you feel more full and avoid cravings... yes. I'm up to 3-4 packets a day now and am truly amazed at how my diet has changed. I stopped taking it on weekends and noticed my "munchies" were more pronounced.
I work a 9-6 life style and I figured hey, if I'm at work, working hard, I may as well eat healthy, just one more of my many responsibilities at work. Salad also takes a lot longer to finish than your typical junk fast food so its good to snack on at your desk while you work. Honestly it was hard at first but now I feel actually quite fed throughout the day.
I now eat 500ml of greek yogurt for breakfast, do 50 minutes of running on the tread mill at lunch and come back to the office for a spinach salad. Carrots, bell peppers, green onion (much less work than regular onions to cut up), avocado, cucumber, zucchini and a bit of pine nuts is what goes into my salad. Also keep some fruit salad on hand, and in the case of unflavoured greek yogurt, throw it on top of the fruit.
At first I was putting store bought guacamole (100 cal packs but fairly high in sodium) and plenty of feta cheese in my salad. After about a month I've successfully gone to a completely green, no dressing, no guac, no feta salad. I never thought I would see the day where I could eat something like this regularly. I love cheese, and can manage to skip the feta. I eat this 4 days a week, and I'm not even bored after 2 months. I couldn't eat at the same fast food place daily for 2 months!
I still throw avocado in there but that's probably the worst part of my salad. 3 months ago the only vegetable I liked was potatoes. I now feel pretty satisfied with my salad and I put no meat or tuna on my salad. I've introduced chick peas to help it feel more filling. I am usually not hungry until about 6-7 pm when I finish work.. That is where it gets tricky (more on that later). Since i've only ate cold food for the day, I still crave a hot meal. However since I'm so proud that I've managed to stay full off mere yogurt and salad (I used to be hungry by 4 pm after eating pasta at lunch and a breakfast wrap for breakfast). I actually try and make a healthier choice for dinner. I've stocked my fridge with frozen easy to bake fish, which has helped me get that meat feeling without having to go overboard on red meat.
I feel really good, and I've done a lot of yo-yo diet / exercise, I attribute a fair bit to PGX and of course will power. At first I bought the pills and granulars but once I realized I can't swallow the pills, I gave a bottle to a friend. He shares the same positive feedback I do and has ordered his own bottle.
PGX has helped me curb my appetite. Curbed my cravings, but like I said it isn't magic. Potato chips still taste good, I just feel less inclined to grab a bag. My favorite chips are in the kitchen right now, sealed, and untouched since last week!
THE NEGATIVES
-IT IS NOT MAGIC. In the evenings, particularly if I've ate a light dinner and stuck to my yogurt / salad day food, I can be a bit hungry. It takes some will power. I usually just snack on a bit of cheese every other night which I realize isn't the healthiest but hey, it has only been 2 months.Problem is if you take PGX in the evening, the amount of water may have you waking up at night to pee.
-I would say my bladder is mid sized, not small but certainly not huge. Taking this 3-4 times a day this stuff I've found has increased my trips to the bathroom for #1's drastically and the ability to delay or hold it in has decreased. I wouldn't take this stuff before/during a road trip or if you are far from a bathroom.
-I think my body is responding fairly well to the fiber, I'm pretty regular, however this stuff has also increased my trips to the bathroom for #2's . Though its clean and quick (sorry for the detail but hey I think it might help)
-They say these singles are perfect for "on the go". Don't even think about putting this in your restaurants water, since you need two glasses of water and this stuff isn't really easy to drink from an open cup. You could however go to a corner store, buy 2 bottles of water, mix the stuff in one, drink it, and then slam the other bottle. That would work. However if you can manage to swallow the pills, they would probably be easier "on the go"
-This stuff is designed / made in Canada but sells cheaper in the USA lol. Hence why I'm posting on Amazon. Good news is if your a Canadian it's still cheaper to buy in the USA on amazon and pay taxes on it should CBSA search your car (no duties since it was manufactured in Canada!).
I like this stuff so much I'm going to try the PGX / Protien powder next, for some reason it isn't on ebay.
Best of luck, work hard, exercise and don't give up. Give this stuff a try, but order 3 boxes. Start with 1 a day for a week, then 2 a day for another week and move on to 3-4 when you feel comfortable.
Best of luck.
The first day I only used a half a packed in juice - it didn't mix in well and was a little rough to drink...but I got it down. It didn't add any flavor, I just didn't like all the granules floating around in there. But even with a half packet - I felt full for 3-4 hours!
The next day I sprinkled about 1/3 packet on my special k in the morning - didn't even notice it was there - and the cereal held me over until lunch easily. Then at lunch I had a smart ones frozen meal and I used the rest of the packet over all the food - if I didn't see it on top, I would haven't have even noticed it. But that worked great to hold me over until dinner - I never did eat my yogurt or nectarine I brought with me for snacks!
I won't hesitate to use this daily - but I will use it more on solid foods than liquids. It worked well that way - just make sure to drink a lot of water for the 'full' effect. I did later try it in yogurt - but I didn't like the texture of the granules in it - it did not dissolve at all.
I will definitely repurchase! I started using this on Monday, and it's Friday and I lost 3 pounds and never went hungry!
* maybe have flavored water, but not sparkling water.
* Make sure the water is cold - lukewarm water makes it more difficult to go down (wish my office had ice cold water)
* Drink it quickly - this is NOT a sipping drink. Now I remember that a friend gave me one of these years ago and I let it sit in my cup it turned very gelatinous & thick and there was NO drinking it then. I'm sure it's swelling up in my stomach right this minute so I won't eat. If that's the case it will work and I will continue to take it as I NEED to drop 40lbs. min. I'll revise my review after I know if it works or not.
