Hi all,
Just a quick background
My weight was 335 Lbs in November 2016.
I went down to 326 Lbs by March 2017 (only by not drinking sodas but I was still eating fast food)
I followed a 1500 calories program for around 3 months and by end of June 2017, I was 286 Lbs.
From July to December I went back to the gym, doing weights and cardio (but mainly focusing on weight training), while sticking to my 1500 calories program, however I was just adding a couple of protein shakes per day, so maybe my calories were smth like 2000.
I got stuck at that point for a long time, each week I was losing 1-2 lbs and then regain them after.
I made some bloodwork to ensure that nothing is wrong with thyroid or other hormones.
I started to use ECA and HGH, but again, my weight was fluctuating but still around 282 - 286.
Currently I have biceps tendinopathy and severe inflammation and won't be able to train for at least 4 month.
Also, I am 5'11, 32 yo and was AAS user in the past.
DNP use
I read about DNP and started to use it 10 days ago, my goal was to break the plateau to get down to 265 Lbs.
After 10 days of DNP use I lost only 4 Lbs, which isn't as per my expectations.
While I understand that I am holding water and it will go after stopping DNP, I really find it unrealistic that I would lose 10 - 15 Lbs of water weight after DNP cycle (or maybe it is, you guys tell me).
I am using 200 mgs per day for 30 days (to be on the safe side)
I am not having side effects after day 8.
I am using T3 too.
Diet is between 1800-2300 calories, 3 low carbs days followed by 1 high carbs day.
Question:
Shall I go for 400 mgs per day to see better results, or shall I stick to 200 mgs?
Is it reasonable that I am holding such significant amount of water weight and it will go after the cycle?
Kindly help by sharing your views.
Thanks
