Make sure you get some stuff to combat the cramping that you will endure by your 3rd week. It's bad and I mean REAL F'in BAD! Potassium, cal/mag take lots of it and drink tons of water. The lethargy, cramps and headaches are the sides that I've experienced. I'm continuing for 3 more weeks and as much as I love the results, I can't wait to get off this stuff lol! It's a great supp from what I notice so far. I didn't start seeing results until my 3rd week.

Try more like 5-6 Liters 
Also, I'm taking about 8-10 99mg Potassium a day and double the normal cal/mag. The cramping gets bad and when I say bad I mean BAD! I thought I was paralyzed one day. No joke either! Many people stop using it because of the cramping. I'm not giving in lol! I started at 6caps per day and I'm now doing 8-9 caps. I know it's alot but my metabolism sux. So far in 5 weeks I've dropped about 6lbs. May not sound like much to most but remember, I'm a little person and 6lbs is a freaking lot to drop for me. On a typical cut I average 1/2lb a week so this stuff has double my results and on top of it, I'm holding water so my guess would after dropping the water retention I've lost close to 10lbs. Only time will tell. I'm not coming off of it for a few more weeks so I'll keep you posted.

Diet: 6-7 meals/day Not gonna much below 2200 cals/daily, most days are gonna be around 2400 while maintenance is 2650-2700 for me. I already have a pretty steady and clean diet, so this should be fairly easy to keep up with. 50%pro 30% carbs 20% fat 1 cheat day /week Cardio: warmups and 1 HIIT session/week, unless fat loss totally plateaus, then increase Training: 2 days on 1 day off, 2 bodyparts per day Bis and hammies calves and abs tris and back chest and quads traps and shoulders Supersetting , 6-10 reps per set, with a constant increase/adjustment in loads as necessary. I will be updating my gallery with recent pics and taking progress shots. So I guess that sums it up. Current pics, from sept 17th,pleas edont mind the lack of posing talent!!lol |

Results don't happen over night and if your taking MP which makes you hold a shit load of water then you know the scale will throw it all off. Just wait till your done and once that water drops what the scale will say!

not make them worse. 
Good work on the striations! Those are a good sign of you did something right!
I always say that I'm not going to step on the scale after a pigout weekend like the one in Vegas this weekend but I did anyway and I did it at night too. I was expecting a much much higher number. I am EXTREMELY impressed by this product. I ATE ALOT and these girls and guys that went to the O this weekend can contest to that. Well, weighing myself at night I only put on 5lbs and I know that's all water. I guesstimate that come the middle of this week with a clean diet, I will be back to 120
