HI everyone,

My stack arrived this morning and I started on it straight away. I will keep everyone updated with my progress so that others came learn from my experiences.

From today for 1 week (7 days) I will take;
2 X ephedrine HCL (8mg each)
1 X Caffeine (200mg)
1 X Asprin (75mg)

Training

I will be taking this stack once in the morning (around 7-7.30am), my first cardio workout will be a 20min run at about 9.30-10am (the delay is to give then stack time to absorb into my bloodstream.

I will do weight training for about 20-30mins around 3pm, and then a 2nd 20min cardio run around 6pm.

Diet

I will be having cereal in the morning. Coco Pops with added vitimins and minerals, yummy!!

I will be having good amounts of veggies, and lamb/chicken steaks. In the evening I will be eating wholemeal pasta or wholemeal breads.

Today's Events

After I completed my cardio this morning, I had a strong tightening around my stomach area. It was almost like a cramp, but i don't think that it was a cramp as it went all the way around from side to side. Is this normal??

When I first took the stack this morning, my whole body started to tingle, and my heart started beating faster. not by much, but about 2-3beats faster during my cardio, my cheat remained loose, and i could breath fine, but my heart was beating twice as fast as it normally does during exercise.

Is this all normal??

thanks

P.S always, I have started swearing like mad by the end of my cardio. I mean, literally sweat is pouring off of every ince, lol.

I don't advise taking the stack directly before your cardio. It can cause your heart to race and that is not good.

Also, is that seriously all you eat? Your diet is garbage. You really need to look into that if you're serious about losing fat. Right now you'll probably lose weight but it will be a lot of muscle loss.

Ok, so what would you say to me to increase/ have a better diet. That is probably the reason why i'm feeling sooo hungry, all the time.

This is why I said that a stack is not a miracle drug. It does NOT make you lose weight with a sh!tty diet. It *compliments* an already good diet and helps take off that little bit extra.

You need to be eating 5+ times a day to spread out your nutrition. You should be hitting a minimum of 1g protein per lb or bodyweight and I don't think you can really go wrong with more. Keep your carb-protein-fat calorie ratio close to 40%-30%-30%.

Also your carbs should be loaded more towards the beginning of the day and tapared towards the evening. Try not to consume carbs too close to bed. What carbs you do eat shoudl be whole grains, whole wheats, complex carbs.

Lots of veggies, little fruit.

Lots of lean meat: tuna, chicken, extra lean ground beef.

Good fats: olive oil, peanut butter, almonds, etc

At 185lb you should probably start at around 2250-2500 total cals per day. See what your weight does over the next week or two and adjust accordingly.

Also... RESEARCH!!!
