Products

• Although Stacker produces energy products, such as drinks, tablets and protein water, you'll want to use their diet line in order to lose weight. The main products in this line are Stacker 2 and Stacker 3. Stacker 2 is marketed as a fat burner, and Stacker 3 is said to have both fat-burning and energy-boosting capabilities. These claims have not been evaluated by the FDA for validity.

  Both Stacker 2 and Stacker 3 are available in the same quantities. Purchase these products in four-count blister packs, three-count blister packs, 20-capsule bottles or 100-capsule bottles. The smaller blister packs are typically sold in convenience stores.

Usage

• You are instructed to take one capsule after each meal when using either Stacker 2 or Stacker 3. Drink with a full glass of water, and make sure to drink plenty of water throughout the day. Do not take more than three capsules on a daily basis. You might want to start with one capsule daily and then gradually increase your dose to give your body time to adjust to the supplement. Stop the product if you develop any side effects such as headache, dizziness or upset stomach.

Diet and Exercise

• Using Stacker alone will not likely make you lose a significant amount of weight. You need to adjust your diet as well as follow an exercise plan. For your diet, steer clear of foods high in sugar and saturated fat. Avoid fried foods, fast food, sweets and white breads. Adjust your meals so that you eat mostly whole grains, lean proteins, vegetables and fruits. Drink mostly water as well.

  For your exercise routine, spend at least 30 minutes daily performing some form of aerobic exercise. You can participate in walking, jogging, swimming or cycling, for example. You can also add weight training to your routine several times a week to help burn fat and build muscle. Circuit training is a popular form of weight training.
