    Start weight - 182.6
    Finish weight - 173.8

    That's a loss of 8.8 pounds! In only 28 days!

    Start bf - 18.4%
    Finish bf - 16.4%

    These bf percentages are both with my bathroom scale so hopefully they are consistent if not accurate. Meaning I should (and look like) be down 2% in 28 days. Not bad. Not bad at all! Thanks Austinite!

    Will start cycle 3 on the 2nd of September and run it thru 30 Sept.
    Very nice job buddy!

    11 days in, 7 lbs down. I am in a 500 cal a day deficit, lifting 4 days a week, no cardio for the last 2 weeks. Eating at a 60/20/20 split. Feel great. I have noticed some light headedness when i get up too quickly, not sure what to attribute that to. BP 117/71 so that checks out. Can't wait to see where I'm at in 3 weeks.

    You are cooking! What was your starting bf percentage if you don't mind me asking? The light headedness might be from low carbs but I don't know for sure.

    Starting @ 24-25%. Down from 252 to 245 @ 6'2". 220 is my immediate goal. Didn't think of low carbs, good point.

    My question might have gotten lost back there.
    Can anyone answer this for me?

    Sorry about that. Maybe others can tell you. But I don't like adding to the protocol because then it's not my protocol anymore. So use at your risk. This stack's sole purpose is to be safe and side effect free. Adding anything could easily throw the concept off. This is why we're not using ephedrine or clen or albuterol.

    Forgot to add last week bathroom scale bf of 17% = 13.4% from the bod pod. So even at lower bf percentages this fat burn stack still rocks! I currently estimate I am about 13.0-13.1%. I wished I had waited one more week before getting to the pod because it seems my body is making a nice downward trend. By that I mean I seem to change weight/bf in what you could call fits and starts. I'll stay the same for awhile and then for no apparent reason will drop pounds and bf% before stalling out again. This happens even though I stay consistent with both diet and exercise. Anybody else experience this type of change or do you just drop in a fairly consistent linear fashion?

    Can we get a moderator in here? This guy Brazensol is making me jealous.

    on a serious note, I am back on now for a few days and I've scheduled a bod pod assessment for 1st week in september. 12.06% as of a couple months ago so I am hoping for something in the 11's.

    I think the lack of Synp is killing for progress but we will keep on trying

    Yeah synephrine is a key player. Certainly takes longer without it.

    Anyone notice any changes in cravings? Sweets specifically??

    Can't say that I have. I've never had much of a sweet tooth as far as ever really craving it. But I like it as much as the next guy. I eat one or two dove dark chocolates most days. Maybe that is enough to keep any cravings I would otherwise have tamped down. I also drink a lot of Mio flavored water and that is pretty sweet. In fact I probably drink to much of it. I have a hard time drinking enough water if it isn't flavored though.

    To be honest my diet has been so poor the past 10 years I find myself craving good healthy food for a change. Craving may not be quite the right word but I find it very easy at the moment to choose between the good and the bad. Hope I never go back to the bad...

    Healthy competition is what made America great! I find I have much better bike rides when other people are out riding too. Not so much that I am directly competing against them but in that I use them to set goals for myself such as; can I catch that guy before we get to the next intersection or the end of the street? That kind of thing. It helps push me harder than those times I'm out there slogging mile after mile by myself. Those are the hardest miles. Usually.

    Edit: And keep in mind you are LIGHTYEARS ahead of me in lbm. For now. lol.

    That makes a lot of sense. You know, on days that I don't lift, I still go to the gym to get on the treadmill, even though I have one at home. Something about getting out of the house to go for a run is far more appealing than running at home.

    I totally agree. I will admit I hate the gym if its crowded with a bunch of jokers. But overall I love being there. Seeing people pushing weight to the max. Guys spotting tbere buddies cheering them on for a new pr. Awesome
    And the fit girls in spandex is appealing too

    Lol I think every real lifter and gym person will agree with the above as there is nothing more annoying than people who think going to the gym and pricking around for an hr cardio and kinda lifting weights is the way to go but still getting in the way of others or asking how to train or worse still telling you are doing something wrong lol

    Would you consider running this with the stuff you recommend for vascularity? It should all be here in a week or so..just curious if thats to much "stuff" to be taking preworkout.

    There are no adverse effects of doing so. Go for it.

    Finally received all of the ingredients today for this stack and will be testing it this afternoon in the 100 degree Texas sun. Has anyone had issues with the starting dose? Nausea? Headache? Blindness? Any reason to ramp up on the EGCG as well?

    It just sounds too good:

    Reefer Girl: Come on, Dewey! Join the Austinite Fat Stack!
    Sam: No, Dewey, you don't want this. Get outta here!
    Dewey Cox: You know what, I don't want no hangover. I can't get no hangover.
    Sam: It doesn't give you a hangover!
    Dewey Cox: Wha-I get addicted to it or something?
    Sam: It's not habit-forming!
    Dewey Cox: Oh, okay... well, I don't know... I don't want to overdose on it.
    Sam: You can't OD on it!
    Dewey Cox: It's not gonna make me wanna have sex, is it?
    Sam: It makes sex even better!
    Dewey Cox: Sounds kind of expensive.
    Sam: It's the cheapest drug there is.
    Dewey Cox: Hmm.
    Sam: You don't want it!
    Dewey Cox: I think I kinda want it.
    Sam: Okay, but just this once. Come on in.

    Vegan-O-Roid -

    I thought on the first cycle I might have had some mild nausea but I can't really blame it on the stack with 100% surety. None on the second cycle for sure. I take it before I do my fasted cardio. My wife on the other hand does get nauseous if she takes it on an empty stomach. Towards the end of my 2nd cycle I was having some trouble falling asleep and staying asleep (very unusual for me). Again, don't know if it was the stack but that is the only real change I have made (I am a man of habit if ever there was one. I have not changed my breakfast in over 3 months now!) and perhaps my cns just needs a break. I cut my 2nd cycle short by two days and will run future cycles at a 4 weeks on 1 week off and see how it goes. I did sleep fine last night so maybe?

    Thanks Braze. I am very sensitive to most vitamins, herbs, supps, etc... I think I will try half dose to be safe. Especially since I will be doing fasted cardio as well, and up to a couple miles from home in the heat. Most things don't mess my stomach up, but things like clen , T3, ECA all wig me out. I know Synephrine is supposed to not be as harsh, but might as well take it slow.
    Thanks, Ron

    I am glad I re-read the protocol and the info on my scoop. Looks like I would have OD'ed. Wonder why it comes with such a huge scoop unless mine is less concentrated?

    It's always best to use a scale to verify dose. You only have to do it once.

    Gives me a new goal to shoot for... lol. Pretty sure I've lost a few more tenths since my bod pod last week. I'd say right at 13 flat. We are moving soon so I am really worried about gaining some fat. It will be 5-6 days of travel plus a few nights at my sisters house. I am taking my bike and will try and ride each night but we'll see how the reality of that plan works.

    Purchased the stack about a month ago but did not use because I was still making progress with my bf%. Unfortunately as of late I hit a stand still, so I decided to incorporate the stack and just started today. I am very excited to see the results as many of you here have expressed great results. Thank you austinite for all the great info you provide to the board on a daily basis, I have learned so much on this forum.
