Nope, not all.

Except the first day I took it, but at that point every supplement I took made me nervous because I didn't know how I would react to them. Same thing happened with creatine first time I used it.

I loved LFE and it was definantly one of the most functional supplements I have used. Mainly because of decreasing appetite. Believe me, I am one to get nervous and uppity about small stuff and I actually did not even notice any adverse effects like that thinking back on it.

If you guys used it I probably wouldn't progress to the 2x a day dose. At 200 mgs a pill, 400 would be quite a bit for you guys I think. It was quite a bit for me. I wouldn't suggest using it too long either, no more than 6 weeks to be safe. Caffiene can mess with your adrenals if you take it for too long a time period.

i had garlic bread today n my belly feels like a frikken beach ball argh. i'm nicely sore all over from my workout and did enough walking today to be maybe 4 miles. i'm going to buy a teapot when i shop wednesday and mix my own version of the instant fruit oatmeal packets. i like whole oats with boiling water poured over them n left to "cook" in the hot water a few minutes. where i live quaker old fashioned oats is the best you can get. the quick type = paste. decent dried fruit won't be easy either but i have a dehydrator.

i bought instant bleh coffee so that right there will drastically reduce all the milk calories i have in coffee during the day... my kids have appointments in bangor wednesday so i'll have a goood 4 hours reading time n plan to load a bb nutrition book in my palm.

n yea can we please make this a sticky?

Little Wing · 01-09-2007, 03:17 AM

n thanks fufu. i might try it but Tess said no thanks.

fufu · 01-09-2007, 11:28 AM

There used to be a stimulant free version...not sure if Rob still sells it.

fufu · 01-12-2007, 09:20 PM

bump

updates anyone??

I am going for my deadlift PR tommarow, I've been really excited about it for over a week. One step closer to my april goal...if I hit it that is.

Little Wing · 01-13-2007, 06:04 AM

i've been slipping exercise wise, i think i sprained my wrist, but diet is worse.... i'm too depressed to eat.

Just take things one day at a time, try not to think, "oh I'm screwing up now it's just going to get worse". I don't know if that is what you are thinking but I know sometimes I do that. Just take things as they come and improve a little bit each day.

Pylon · 01-13-2007, 11:32 AM

Going well. I've been in the gym almost every day. I've taken 2 days off since X-mas, and some of those are 2 workout days. Cheat meal once per week, otherwise have stayed clean. I'm down 7 or 8 pounds.

I've heard that too. They all live in the center of the Earth, right?

Speaking of which, does y'alls people eat oatmeal?

fufu · 01-16-2007, 10:42 PM

I eat oatmeal most mornings...with natural PB, whey, and fruit.

fufu · 01-16-2007, 10:44 PM

littlewing - you look great currently, I'm not just saying that(i think most would agree with me), but you will look even better after all this is done. (nice avy too)

btw - are you part native American?

looks like Kelju is in on this too...noice!! You look like a lumberjack, you should grow it out.

and bigdyl, since you posted you are automatically inducted as well.

Cardinal · 01-16-2007, 11:00 PM

I am actually trying to keep things dialed in for once. I am in on this for the motivational factor rather than the competition. My before pics are from December 21, 2006 or thereabouts.

My pics are posted on the first page of my log over at anabolicminds.

M1T/Tren E cutter

I plan to cut another month or so at which point I will have hopefully read kelly baggett's new book and will be read to pursue a lean bulker. It will take me a year at least to get where I would like to be.

That is exactly what I was planning on doing. It grows at an insanly fast rate, so I might have me a ZZ-Tops beard in about a year or two.

fufu · 01-21-2007, 03:19 AM

Pylon · 01-21-2007, 11:03 AM

Quick update - weighed in yesterday morning at 262. Started at 271, targeting 10 lbs/month (260 for Jan 31). Well within striking distance.

Yeah, I haven't done measurements. Or pics. I'll get around to it...someday...

Little Wing · 01-22-2007, 12:31 AM

nice

. i'm doing ok but not pushing myself like i could be. my sleep pattern is totally screwed n eating what i do at the times i do is weird. tomorrow is snow fort day

so will be a day off from lifting to move half a ton of snow.

fufu · 01-24-2007, 11:23 AM

Well, today I got my 475 lb deadlift, a bit earlier than expected. 1 goal down, 3 to go.

Cardinal · 01-24-2007, 11:42 AM

fufu,

Excellent work! You did hit that goal pretty quickly. And you aren't too far away from 500 now. Good luck on hitting the others.
