LEPTIGEN pII...Da Journey.

[Triple Threat]

OK then, consider yourself stalked. (Note to Prince - need a "stalker" smilie).

Serious question to legitimize this entry. I understand the part about Leptigen dulling the hunger pains (easily observed), but what evidence is there that the nutrient partitioning is taking place?

 

[Twin Peak]

I doubt you would see any evidence, as such, in the short term.

Things to look for though, include more fat loss than you would otherwise have given a similar diet (e.g. losing 1.75 pounds on average per week rather than 1.5).

Not losing as much muscle, or perhaps even gaining some, while on a similar diet. Fuller muscles, in general (it is also a cell volumizer).

I'll probably think of others. But to notice these effects, you'd have to have similar past experiences with which to compare.

And I was wondering where the Captain has been.

BINGO! When we going fishing buddy??

Actually, I just saw this response, from an unbiased individual, which answers your question fairly well:

I just wanted to attest for the repartitioning effect of Leptigen2.

After only 6 days of use, I just noticed a drastic repartitioning of money in my bank account to money in Par's wallet for 3 more tubs of this Manna. I hope this prototype will stay in constant production for quite some time.

Seriously, if you read the reviews we were getting at Avant, you'd think they were all fake.

I'm heading up to Bryson City on or around the 15th of August. My Aunt has a place up there...at the base of her driveway is a nice little branch (about thirty feet across) with a ..get this....A Baptismal Pool carved out of the rock! I hope the trout are still getting religion when I get there! Haven't been in 15 years! Actually, I hope I can afford the N.C. Non-resident license! Those things are Outrageous!

[DaMayor]

Quick Notes....

No significant changes today. As suggested by....what's that guy's name? Hmm. I'll remember later...I've increased the dose to 3 tablespoons. Hunger is touch and go, but never at a level comparable to my pre-LeptiGen state.

 

[Robboe]

Is this stuff on back order yet, Ste?

 

[Twin Peak]

No, still some volume left. No idea how long. Unfortunately I expect there to be a decent delay when its gone, unfortunately. I need to make sure I have stock.

 

[Robboe]

Are there any planned amendments for version 2.1?

 

[Twin Peak]

Other than flavoring, uncertain. Being discussed. Nothing major, as of now.

 

[Robboe]

You should introduce dirt flavour. That'll make me feel well hizzle-kizzle.

Why the delay? I thought Par ironed out the sourcing kinks?

 

[Twin Peak]

Yes and no. Difficult to get into, and yeah, still about half left.

 

[QueenofSquats]

Bryson City is a pretty little place! Trout fishing has been great all summer since we have had so much rain! Terrestrials would be good to use then.
State Fishing: Resident - $15.00 Nonresident - $30.00
Note* you will need to get a $10.00 trout stamp in addittion to add to the cost of these license fees if you are a out of state or state resident planning to fish hatchery supported waters.


3 Day Nonresident - $15.00

1 Day Nonresident - $10.00

Check this again in August!

That's not so painful. I'll have to dig out the old fly rod(s).



Alright.....the usual stuff..

Meal 1
2 whole eggs
3 whites
1 slice cheese
coffee x2
Multi Vitamin
10 grams fish oil

Meal 2
EAS Protein shake

Meal3
6-8oz. chicken breast
1.5 cups mixed salad greens
2 tbsp dressing (reduced everything)

Meal 4....

 

[DaMayor]

Took my a.m. dose of Lep II later than usual, about 10:15 instead of 9:00. Went to the gym for a quick leg workout, quick meaning about thirty minutes vs. the usual 45min. to 1 hour. For whatever the reason, for about twenty minutes after the w/o I was nauseated as hell. Seems to have decreased a bit after downing a protein shake.
Just for shits and giggles I jumped on the scale. I am back to 236.....right where I started. Now, this could, and probably is, a fluxuation in water. Regardless, it ain't the most motivational thing. I'll take some measurements tomorrow, maybe this will offer something more motivational.
However, just for the moment, Im Pissed Off.

Hey, I'm only human, right?

 

[Twin Peak]

You had a lot of steak and eggs yesterday, could be the salt.

 

[DaMayor]

Well, I think I know what I did.
I added some yogurt to the protein shake (meal 6) last night, since my carbs up to that point were pretty low. (about 17g) I never do this. Haven't had yogurt is ages. Anyway, I remember feeling like the Goodyear Blimp about 5 minutes after drinking the thing. So, apparently it is a combination of the carbs and salt.
I feel more tone overall, and my appearance might have changed ever so slightly (based on my wife's comments) but not that much. It'll take time.

But for now, Let me sulk.

 

[Pepper]

FedEx just delivered mine. Mixed it with Crystal Light Pink lemondade mix and about 40 oz of water. I can't taste the stuff.

Off we go....

EDIT - DaMayor, sorry for the journal clutter, thought I was in the other one.

and

NOTE TO SELF - continually stir the product into the Crystal Light. It settled to the bottom and now I taste it big time!

Hey, no problem Pepper. I don't see it as clutter. In fact, I have a feeling that we might have a few things in common in regards to BF%, metabolism and caloric deficit required for weight loss anyway. So post anytime, brother.

Secondly, I have noticed that the LeptiGen II seems to be sensitive to humidity, at least to some degree. When mine first arrived, it seemed to mix very well. However, as time goes on it seems to "clump up" a bit more. I just toss it down anyway.

 

[Twin Peak]

Shake up the bottles every day or so to combat settling.

And yes, Pepper, I'd love to hear your feedback.

 

[DaMayor]

Thinking Out Loud......

Y'know, after reading some of the feedback over at Avant, as illogical as it may seem, I've been having thoughts of dropping calories again. We're holding at around 1700-1800 right now......Ah, I don't know. Maybe I'll give it another week.

Quit looking for changes so hard. And certainly not so soon.

Seriously, be skeptical - basically, say it's shite until it proves you wrong. So far we've established the appetite connection. Now we need to know if it'll help you drop the fat consistently over time. Which will take longer than a week.

That's under 8kcals/lb.

If you look that up in the dictionary you'll be linked to the word "stupidity". At least for now.

That's where I have been the last month or so. The "rule of thumb" for cals/lbs is pure BS if you ask me. Not saying that for others. If DaMayor is like me, he may have to go that low.

 

[Robboe]

I wasn't refering to rule of thumb.

I was refering to the fact that 1700kcals for a 236lb man is pretty much stupidity.

I'd never drop below about 10kcals, and even then i'd be pushing it. If it got so bad that fat loss stalled at that level then i'd take 1-2 weeks of dieting to reset my metabolism some.
