Saturday 30/4/04 waking weight 84.6 fuck I feel good not being on this drug anymore. The sweating has slowed down a lot already. I mean, I sweat, but I live in the tropics, so I sweat normally anyway. YOU try living in 33 degree 80% humidity and see if you don’t sweat. Im curious to see how fast the drug clears my system. I get the impression it will be faster than the 36 hour half life quoted in the literature. We shall see. 7:00pm. Quite interesting. Sweating did not occur. Muscles are starting to blow up again (arms dipped to 15 ¾ last night, then 15 7/8 this morning, and now are sneaking up on 16” chest still flat as a pancake though. Back musculature is not quite at that nice ripped stage it was in the first couple of days, but in tight shirts I can see some shoulder blade and scapular muscles protruding (yipee!) I am drinking water anf glycerol like a madman, my stomach feels fit to pop, but I am barely at 85.0kg. I wonder if I have actually lost some fat today…that would be hilarious.

Waking weight (no toilet break) 84.2. I have developed hives on the backs of my hands, inner left forearm, left bicep area, inner right forearm, and a couple on my ankles. Currently using a medium dose sedating antihistamine (phenergan; promethazine) to reduce histaminic response, and a corticosteroidal cream (hydrocortisone) on the area to reduce inflammation. Therapy is working very well. I will continue on low dose less sedating antihistamines for the next week. 8pm more hives on knuckles on hands and feet. Somewhat responsive to corticosteroids and less sedating antihistamine. Problem areas seem to be near any thickened skin or scar tissue, weirdly.

Waking weight 84.8. did a great chest and tri workout yesterday, drank a lot of water, salt and glycerol (hope to speed up glycogen production) must say I look much better today. Cheast has filled out, waist/abdomen looks tighter. Arms sneaking back to 16 inches again. Had massive food cravings all night. Urine color back to normal. Hives still present, keeping them at bay with antihistamines at present. Note about hives: they manifested after 15 days of the drug being present, as it was decreasing in concentration. The only other variable is that I had 3 other drugs that night (one of them alcohol-light beer) one of them codiene, one of them paracetamol. I was sitting on some couches in a club, so it may be that some other antigen (apart from dnp) caused the hives. Cannot elucidate source anyway. On a side note, mental clarity has returned.
engicream: i have to step out, ill look in a tic
