First time using GH, only 2iu pinned nightly right before bed. I started a caloric deficit at the same time. Now usually when I diet, Ill drop 5-6 pounds the first week then 1-2 per week after that. Well this time, the scale hasnt moved, Im exactly the same weight, but I am defintely looking different. How much water does GH really hold onto? I look leaner but scale hasnt moved. Do I need to lower sodium maybe? Since the mirror looks good, is the weight simply fluid/glycogen being pulled into the muscles? Im not bloated at all, belt is looser and arms already showing more vascularity. I didnt think only 2iu a day should have this sort of impact.

To break it down further, my sleep improvement since starting is remarkable!! By the 4th day I was already waking up feeling more well rested, and this is also helping my gym performance. Better sleep, better workouts. Coincidentally, that 4th day I saw a 3.5lb jump in scale weight, but wasnt bloated or anything. Returned to starting weight just a couple days later.

Im already at a 400 calories deficit, but dont want to cut further until I can get more educated on exactly how GH can affect weight. SO hoping yall can school me. Should I go ahead and cut more calories? The scale isnt the main focus, but I do have fat to lose so it should be moving by now.
