Clen not working?
Hey ladies! I and my gf need some help. She started taking some clen to help shed some pounds before we go on vacation. Moral of the story is she hasn't dropped an ounce in the first two weeks she was on. She has also been on T3 for the last three weeks (2 weeks was with clen) and she's not seeing anything different. Her diet has been ten fold better than when she started.
NOW my take on it, I got her to go from cardio only to cardio and weight training. I'm guessing she lost some lbs but gained it in muscle mass. 3 weeks of lifting for someone who hasn't lifted regularly should produce some muscle pounds gained. Her cycle for clen was the typical 2 weeks and you ramp up and down. 1-1-1-1.5...and so on, she didn't take more than 2 and only took that for three days. Her t3 while she was on was just a lil 12.5 mcg a day. Now the past week she's been off she's been ramping it up like the typical t3 cycle. 25-25-25-25-37.5... she won't be taking more than 50mcg a day at her max.
Okay, trying to get all my basis for some serious help. Any of you ladies have experience on clen and not seeing any results? Will it be better in the next two weeks? Should she change up her cycle? Maybe its bunk? That would be the BEST result haha I don't mind being out a couple bucks if it would make the difference for her.
Any help would rock, I've been looking up stuff to help her but it's a vast universe out there on the internet. I appreciate it ladies! I'll try to respond to all of your inputs ASAP. Thanks agin!

AnonHow is she feeling on t3 and clen? Is she experiencing the normal sides? I've ran both- In the beginning I didn't think it was helping much, but then I changed sources and realized that the first few bottles were Extremely underdosed. Results were much greater but neither is magic and she will need to keep cardio intense and diet on point. PM me and I'd be glad to tell you the two different sources I used. BE CAREFUL on these. Lots of water, taurine, no alcohol (should go without saying, but you never know) and make sure she ramps down completely before going off.
shoxingbiceps17Prob bunk, especially if you got it from a research company
OursIsTheFuryIts not research, but I have never heard of the pharm (don't know if I can say what's imprinted on the tabs and not get in trouble). I'd love to know though if someone has heard of it. Let me clear that I can say what's on the tabs and then we'll go from there. Or we can PM bro. Thanks for your reply!
shoxingbiceps17Post it in the source discussion if its from a source listed here
OursIsTheFuryI don't believe it is from a source here. It was from a 3rd party. FR sent
First and foremost clen has been shown to cause heart problems in mice.
I have very little experience with clen. I took 10mgs, for 3 days, then 20mgs for 3 days. That's it. The first thing I noticed was shakes, mainly in my hands. When my dosage went up so did the shakes. 6 days of shaky hands was enough for me.
I do not think it helped me lose anything but it was only 6 days. I would rather do extra cardio than have the jitters.
She needs to throw out her scale, and she's probably not eating enough. What does her workout look like? How's her diet?
OursIsTheFuryThanks for your advice! Much appreciated. She has a good solid diet considering where she was. Oatmeal and eggs for breakfast, snack two times a day, solid lunch with protein and carbs, same with dinner. She probably could use more protein in her diet come to think of it.
She does morning cardio with me, 30-45 minutes either on the treadmill at an incline or on the elliptical high resistance and slow burn. Her lifting workouts are tailored for a newbie. She does back and chest two times a week. High reps low weight, maybe three exercises per muscle group. Then she does shoulders and arms two times a week, same principle as before. Then she does her leg day. Nothing intense in anything, I didn't want to scare her from the gym haha.
Any help would be great though, advice is taking by me to learn and help my girl out =)
More protien is always important, I shoot for 200 grams day. I don't always make it, but I get close and that's good enough.
Throwing out her scale is the most important thing. I always thought weight mattered, 130 lbs was my normal weight. But I look better today at 170 than I ever did at 130.
She also needs to forget about high reps low weight. She needs to do the opposite, it took my husband years to convince me of this. I wish I had listened sooner. I go as heavy as I can, your wife will think she can't lift heavy just throw the weight on there and she will see she can.
OursIsTheFuryGreat advice UgtaBkdNme, thank you so much for your time! 200 grams a day would be TOUGH for her, but I think it is definitely doable. I'll have to get rid of ALL THE SCALES haha, but I think she will get some inspiration hearing that from you.
The high weight low reps is something I totally didn't think of. That's great to think of her just pushing some heavy ass weight! (ps girlfriend not wife.... yet ;) lol)
It's tough to eat that amount of protein, but it's easy to drink it. I tried Vikings tuna shake and it's changed my life lol
I do two big cans of tuna (140g of protein) plus one container of spicey V8 in the blender for a few minutes. I leave it in the fridge and grab a glass when I think of it. It sounds gross, but it's pretty good. Just rinse the tuna first, you'll be amazed.
+3 my favourite girl doing the business with the hardcore pro intake
Aww thanks
It's only been a few days but the changes are crazy! Tuna smoothies, never thought that would be something I enjoy!
X2. The scale is basically the worst way to judge progress. I know first hand, and I'm paying for it during this long drawn out cut to get rid of all the fat I gained bulking. I was always way to happy to see the scale go up. Mirror is best.
OursIsTheFuryBro! you changed your avatar! haha I had know clue this was you until the name sunk in! Thanks for the help, looks like scales out and every wall in the house is going to get COVERED in mirrors! lol
Also be careful with thyroid meds, have heard some real horror stories. She should be feeling sides from clean if it is legit. Increased heart rate etc. The most important thing is diet and exercise. Keep her diet clean and motivate her to keep killing it at the gym. The results will come it doesn't happen overnite and these compounds are tools not miracles. Good luck to your girl and yourself! Have a great time on vacation brother!
OursIsTheFuryThanks brother! I will keep everyone posted as we move through this journey, before too long she'll be spotting me and curling more than me too! haha take care
OursIsTheFuryScrewed up on the reply*
Forget the scale!! Is she seeing changes in her physique? The mirror can tell far more then any scale. Just keep giving her positive reinforcement and encourage her to keep at it!
OursIsTheFuryRight on bro! That's what I have been saying to her, she looks great! Her upper body is toning up real nice, maybe we'll do measurements before the next two weeks. I appreciate the words though, I'll keep up being the biggest cheerleader haha.
(this is the reply i meant above*)
Exactly what I'm saying brother!
