I don't know as I said. It's a thyroid medication, is it not?
Just be careful and research... it's your body.

Take it slow, you shouldn't get bored with your weight. I'm freaking out over 3-4 pounds a week of weight loss because I'm afraid how much of it might be muscle. Only reason I sleep at night is because I'm still making gains every week on my lifts so I know I can't be losing too much, that and my belly seems to be shrinking fast.
Slow is the way to go man. Otherwise you'll be stuck with excess skin that didn't have time to re-adjust to your sudden crash diet that you'll need to get snipped off at the Dr's Office. Losing weight isn't a video game, it is for your body! I can't tell you how much of a difference it is for me, I weighed 275 in high school, lost weight then gained back to 255. I've been working since February and I am now down to 187 or so, I've taken one or two breaks frm dieting and lifting in between. If you look back on from the day I started till the point I am at now, I averaged 2 pounds a week. Once I Find a scanner I'm going to post a before picture of me when I weighed 255 or so and the picture of me now.
Slow....slooowwwwww......ssssllllloooooowwwwwwwwwww! Trust me!

T3 should be ramped up and back down. So you use it for no more than 6 weeks and let's say you start at 12.5 mcg you do that for 3-4 days, then up to 25 for 3-4 days, then 50, 75, and 100. Then you ramp back down the same way right back to 12.5 or even lower so your thyroid doesn't get hit too hard. T3 and clen kick ass, but it is your thyroid. Get your levels checked before and a month after you get off it to make sure nothing gets messed up.
Also, with T3 you will be hungry a lot more, and I get really tired and easily gassed the couple of times I did it. The steroid forum should have a lot more info on this. Again though diet and exercise are the key.

Bro..
Taking clen, and t3 and doing atkins while having no heavy lifting plan with a goal of losing 7 pounds a week.... is extremely dangerous and short sighted.
You didn't put your body in the position it is in now overnight and you can't expect to rectify the situation overnight.
People who put off the weight, keep off the weight for life, and ever achieve anything close to a chiseled look 10 times out of 10 did so using a slow and steady approach that allowed their body to acclimate to the changes it was experiencing as it was being experienced while increasing physical activity as the body adapted and allowed.
Let's say, just for kicks, that you are 250 pounds, 25% body fat. I know u mentioned u were somewhere around that figure pre-injury. That means you have 62.5 pounds of bodyfat. If you lost 62.5 pounds at 7 pounds per week,which is impossible but lets just say since that is your goal, you'd be at 187.5. Do you know what your bodyfat will be at 187.5? Approximately 25%.
Do you know how long you will stay there once u get off the chemicals, get off atkins, and with no consistent lifestyle clean diet in place that you've already proven to yourself you can follow? About a week.
U better put some money in a high yield savings account too because the potential for loose skin is tremendous and nearly guaranteed.
I'm not trying to knock you bro, I'm just trying to knock some sense into you. The way you're talking in your posts, I promise you, will not achieve your medium term goal of a chiseled look.
If you injured yourself doing heavy weightlifting, by going too heavy too fast, the reason is simple: You went too heavy too fast. You ignored form and probably suffered a little from the "peer pressure" effect of wanting to lift as much as the other guys in the gym. Take it slow. Get your form down. Progressively add weight to the bar, don't just throw 10-20 pounds more on the bar because last week was easy. Use a spotter. Strengthen your core. Stretch. Do a couple bar only or bodyweight warm up sets when applicable.
There is nothing wrong with losing 1-2 pounds a week. In fact there is everything right with losing 1-2 pounds a week. If losing 1-2 pounds a week, preventing a heart attack, preventing diabetes, preventing heart disease, being able to breath when u walk up stairs, adding 10-20 years onto your life expectancy so you can see the next generations grow up.... If these aren't all reasons to keep you from getting "bored", I don't know what is.

I personally think you are trying to run before you walk. What happened to eating a clean diet, why not try some cardio and work on legs, and see a PT about getting a good range of motion back in your shoulder.
I have done clen and have done t3, and at the time my BF was to high to see any results. The only reason why clen is done with T3, is because some muscle loss will occur with T3 alone, clen helps prevent muscle loss while on T3.
Have you tried a ECA stack? That will help you lean out, then you can try T3 and clen, good luck.

I agree with Sgt. Slaughter I used clen a few times and I went 2 weeks on 2 weeks off using the Pyramid. Also, I took the full dose in the AM because my cardio sessions were mid PM. Good Luck
