nycgirl's Food & Training Log

Good morning,

T-Rex and YES cause me to bloat. I plan on taking progress pics and measurements on Sat/Sun so I'm not using them today and this weekend, so I can get rid of the water. I'm taking cardio breeze (I love what this does to my digestive system). Rough night sleeping (nothing new); will take today off and go to bed early tonight.


7:30am - 2 Cardio Breeze

10:00am - 1/3 cup of oats w/ 4 egg whites (1 cup of green tea)

12:00pm - 1.5L bottle of water

Interesting on the bloat

Yes, especially in my legs and thighs. I can drink 2 gallons of water, and my legs still swell. Then, when I lay off, the water retention goes down and I look slimmer. There is an interesting thread in the AAS forum that Macro replied to: http://www.elitefitness.com/forum/showthread.php?t=403368

I dont think its the YES thats causing it..Macro stated, and it makes sense, that the YES has caffeine and other local diruretics etc...

weird....



did it start when you applies the YES to your lower legs or before.after?

Not right away. After a few days of using it, I notice it. It's worse when I use it with the fatburners.

Are you bloating in any place in particular or all over? Aren't you coming off of a break right now?

Only on my thighs. The water retention with YES occured before I went on my break. Yes, I am coming off a break.

Sorry, posting is a very cumbersome way to find out what's going on with you but if I call you or PM you then no one else gets to learn from it.

Ok so only on your thighs which would mean it's not an allergic reaction to Trex. Can you try putting the YES on one thigh and not the other and see what happens?

I completely understand. I've learned a lot from the other threads. I will put it on one thigh this weekend and get back to you. Basically, I'm still losing fat in the area (and trying to build muscle), so my thighs aren't as smooth as I would like them to be. After a few days of application of the YES, they are smooth (like they have filled out).
