I retainef alot of water but since I was pretty lean to start with itdidn't show too much. I'm coming off dnp now my last does was a little ovre 6 hrs ago, so I have quite so time before the effects even begin to taper.
Lucky for me, I didn't hold any water at all on my first DNP cycle. From day 3 onwards, I steadily looked leaner and leaner... guess it depends on the person.
