If you want something to help you get bigger, buy whey protein. It will work a lot better than this crap, and is a lot cheaper. \n\nAnd it is not how long you work out each day, it's how intense your workout is. I only go about 45 minutes a day, but it very intense. I'm getting very good results from it.

haha okok first off i admire your effort..you really went after it...so whats wrong with your legs??blood...when you worked out did you cool down..or did you sit down..when you left your workout room were you out of breath??if you didnt cool down(same exercises with lower reps and weight) you left a good amount of blood in your muscles(legs) are the biggest muscles=more pain) ..you're heart pumps oxygen rich blood your the muscles that need it ...a cool down would have help the blood get back to the heart faster..so you wont have to walk to the car feeling like you have an elephant on your back..also you could have just overwork yourself..after a workout,when you go home check your heart beat ..if i still beating fast two hours after working out ..you need it clutch down a gear..if this was recent go for a walk...you'll be less sore after work outs to!!...hope this helps..a very smart question too

Hi it sounds like you have a solid cardiovascular program going. Have you looked into purchasing a heart rate monitor?  \nWhen starting out lifting I always tell my clients lift moderately. Lift what you feel gives you a solid feeling. If you feel like your wimping out you probably are. If you feel like your arms going to fall off on the first day I'm betting your lifting to heavy. The goal is to build a varying routine that your body has trouble adapting to. While not killing yourself so you'll come back tomorrow. This type of lifting  will burn more calories, as well as help you gain strength and power faster. Id suggest you look at the book  The New Rules of Lifting. The have detailed workouts for any level of lifter, even the most novice. It has picture diagrams of all of its exercises and most importantly its workouts vary so your not just doing chest press and arm curls all the time. I hope this helps. Good luck!

I took Cymbalta for a year.  It made me want to sleep all the time.  My doctor's response to this was, "You need to exercise more".  I was too doggone sleepy to exercise more!  I got to the point where I was sleeping 12-14 hours a day and had no motivation to do anything.  I decided I had to quit taking Cymbalta.  I tapered off of it slowly but had terrible withdrawal effects of brain zaps and insomnia.  I have been off it for three months and still have a lesser degree of the withdrawal effects.  I think the Cymbalta may have done permanent damage to my brain.  This drug is fairly new and no one knows enough about it's side effects yet.  I have a feeling we are the "guinea pigs" for the makers of Cymbalta.

I used to get really bad motion sickness, but if u can be ok for eight hours ur doing fantastic as far as I'm concerned. \nHowever, I have lots of ways to help. \nAccupressure, You can buy wrist bands that have what looks like half spheres on the inside part of the wrist. This is meant to press on the dorsum of ur wrist and does make u feel better without any drugs. U need to put them on bout half an hour before u travel and keep them there for the duration. \nHomeopathy, taking nux vom tablets seems to work also. I needed to take these for about two hours before I traveled and keep taking them every two hours during the journey. Didn't always work but helped sometimes. \nGinger, sounds odd but I had some suchi that came with pickled ginger on one journey and I didn't feel sick at all. Take it with me everytime now. \nIf u can, sit in the front of the vehicle where u can see the horizon. I always find the front seat of the car better. If u concentrate on the horizon then ur brain stops being confused about the motion signals it is getting. It can then right things and u don't feel sick.  If ur on a train I try and do the same out the side of the train window and it seems to work somewhat. \nU need to avoid things like reading and writing for this to work as they go against the principle.

YES!!! When I take just half an Adipex I don't feel like eating for nearly two days, the down side: That rush of energy you get doesn't last and you end up feeling like crap towards the end of the day. They also keep you from sleeping. As far as on-line VS prescription I honestly have no idea because I've never ordered on-line

this is a fat soluble drug. in most humans the plasma half life or used to its weakest point is 24-36 hours for a good weekend benge or 1.5 hours for every .1 gram of drug. this drug is not tested by hair sample. this also depends on how much was taken and if the person is a chronic user or recreational. chronic use will dump faster. body size, skinny dumps quick and fluid intake will only decrees the cut off by about 3%. best thing is to eat a heavy meal, beef,starch etc. a few hours before your test. or just lay off until after your screen.

Don't do it!  What will happen to your scholarship when you are tested and your so-called performance enhancer is on a list of forbidden substances???????\n\nLift weights, monitor your eating habits so you will know whether carbs or proteins need to be adjusted and practice practice practice!\n\nWhen I played high school Bball, our coach told us to stay away from birth control pills.  she would always say they make you slow and weak and bloated.\n\nof course i have never been able to find any documentation to support this.\n\nplease stay away from the performance enhancers, ok?

No - unless you do physical labour (which technically is exercise).  They are doing experiments in gene doping with Insulin-like Growth Factor - but it's for people with muscle wasting diseases.  You're goning to have to lift weights or start working construction/agriculture (or any other physically demanding job).  Exercise is fun, gives you social contact, makes you feel better and helps build up muscle.  You should give it a try!

I feel for you.  I had Totalis.  Thankfully the cortisone both orally and injected worked for me.  I took 40mg a day in one dose for a week then went to 30-20-10.  Then I started again with 80mg a day for a week and went to 60 then 40 than 20 and off.  Ask if this is an option for you.\n\nBest of Luck

Are you working out too hard? Do you feel run down in general? Have you had a cold/infection recently? Could be any one of those things, I'd rest for a couple of days and take cod liver oil supplements to help keep your joints flexible

I tried it. Really made it hard. (hard, not difficult) Don't follow the directions. Take one in the morning and one in the evening. 5 days of this should show results. Don't ever buy it at GNC again. Ebay has it much cheaper.

As an adult, you know that mixing alcohol with any medications is ill-advised. Alcohol can potentiate some medications and the combination can produced bad effects. While I appreciate your discomfort, one needs to be patient. Most common viral infections last only about two weeks at the most, and many begin to loosen their grip in only a few days. Try warm baths both for the heat and also to induce relaxation. Warm drinks such as hot chocolate may help. Drink lots of fluids. Use drugs sparingly or only by your physician's advice. Many people overdose on pain medications and increase their headaches and discomfort. Avoid greasy food as with many illnesses, the oily foods tend to cause a general loss of appetite. Light foods such as ice cream, broths, jello and such are better tolerated. Also do as I do, enjoy your disease!  When you recover, you will learn how great good health is. Why are you beating your head against the wall? Because it feels so good when I stop!!!

I'm HIV positive - and I'm going to respond to this from personal experience. \n\nI got HIV from having unprotected sex with someone who didn't know they were positive. It's a b*tch, but it happens. \n\n\nI think my favorite sentence in this question is the final line, "This organization is endorsed by many doctors and celebrities." Well - if Britney Spears says it's true - then I BELIEVE IT! Honestly, people - let's be intelligent. \n\n\nThe reason why some people are fine is because some people are different. Everyone's immune system responds differently to EVERYTHING - some do very well in fighting it on their own; others get sick very VERY quickly. The people who aren't on drugs and are doing fine - they should thank God for the blessing of a uniquely equipped immune system. \n\n\nI am like millions of others who are not so fortunate. My virus has it in for me: as in, I was infected and VERY sick almost immediately. I knew I was positive within a month, because for someone who NEVER got sick, I got TAKEN OUT! So,  I went to the doctor, and surprise!! (Lesson: use protection every time, kids)\n\nMy "viral loads" never went down (they were above 750,000 - above 80,000 is BAD), and my CD4 counts never came back up on their own (they were 274, then 208). I was never diagnosed with AIDS (CD4 of under 200), because after two months of seeing the trend, my doctor decided to strategically skip a month's blood test to see my counts before putting me on medication. She didn't want to have to give me that diagnosis. \n\nI went through a variety of tests (Both Genotype and Phenotype analysis of my particular virus) and went on a drug regimen in August of 2005. \n\nWithin a month (A MONTH!!) my viral load was down to 644, and my CD4's were 240. My drugs kicked the virus' butt, and I had ZERO side-effects. \n\nIn the past year I've been taking my drugs twice a day (basically, it ranks a few steps higher than brushing my teeth - but it's just as routine) and I FEEL GREAT!!!\n\nI love my drugs, I love my doctor, and I love the scientists that figured out a way to KEEP ME ALIVE. \n\nThe longer there are groups out there who perpetuate a myth that this, or that, or whatever - created this SYNDROME; and other ways than prescription medication can keep the virus from creating millions of copies of itself and breaking down a person's immune system, PEOPLE WILL DIE. \n\nThe scientists who studied AIDS in the 80's didn't decide that HIV was the virus that caused AIDS - they were convinced by the FACTS of how this virus operated, and the RESULTS of tests in the lab. \n\nI don't know what drugs you're on - but the ones I'm taking are the only reason I'm typing this.

Remember how much you ate while on the phentermine and try to keep to that once you go off it. I'm about to go off mine after 3 months and I'm a little worried too about that.  Last time I was on it I didn't exercise or change my eating habits so I gained the weight back.  This time I was already exercising and restricting my food intake when I started on the pills.  So they were just kind of a leg-up with some extra weight loss.\n\nI work out 4 hours a week (3x a week for 80 minutes) and I eat slim-fast for 10 of my 19 meals every week.  I've lost about 35 lbs since February.

Please don't stop your medication. You are feeling better because of the medication. It is easy to believe that you don't need it anymore, but that isn't true. I once stopped my methotrexate injections and could barely walk after 2 weeks. I realized that I felt better because of my medication. Stopping the medication ended up hurting me. Take your medication so that you and those around you do not have to suffer. I have faith that you will and am glad you found a medication that has truly helped you.
