Penguinsfan, about creatine I broke out terribly from that crap, but I had no idea what it was at first anyway. I was taking Nitro tech and Cell tech at the same time for about 3 months, but didn't know about cycling off it. I wasn't drinking that much water either and had no knowledge of edema at the time either. Still, I gained close to 15 pounds of muscle. I mean I was looking good. My body was anyway. My biceps are bigger now and my chest looks more ripped too now, but back then that was the first time in my life I'd ever felt strong looking or confident.
Then, Thanksgiving rolled around and by that time I had freaking boils or something that looked like them on my face. It was TERRIBLE. Never felt more humiliated to go outside in public than I did two winters ago. I am some dumb ASS though because I bought ProActive and it worked in about three months. Clear as could be before the summer and had a tan and a nice trim body to go with it. I felt great. Then I started getting friendlier with girls for once and got a few dates. However, I felt I needed to bulk back up. I bought some
weight gainer stuff from GNC and it worked great. I was a little bloated looking in the stomach and arms, but it was helping me gain
weight. To tell the truth I like being about 150 pounds. I look real trim and my face is more boyish. I stopped taking the gainer after I reached a certain
weight then went on the dates as I said. Now the reason I lost the
weight was because you lose
weight you gain and often muscle too when you get off of creatine especially if you do not get back on it. That is the reason you gain muscle on it. Each time your muscles shrink, but because they were loaded to the max with water when you were on the stuff they were stretched out and each cycle you stretch or fill them up to a greater capacity. (I think that is how it works anyway or something like that) But back to the story I wanted to gain muscle back because I was honestly feeling a little weak.
I heard about NO2 and thought it was too good to be true, but the results speak for themselves. I gained five pounds on it the first month and a half without supplement. I can't say it was soley because of the NO2 just because I was also following a more intense workout and resting more in between workout days. But then I got greedy this past February. And I bought some creatine by GNC. It messed my face up again. Within a few weeks the stuff broke my face out a LOT on my cheeks. I fear there will be scars this time though. I never pick either. IT sucks man, but I stopped on February 7th. I marked the day because I wanted to see how long it would take to get rid of them this time. I thought oh yeah they will go away faster because I only took it for two weeks. Yeah right! I still have acne. It is mostly like the shadow kind where they aren't really there, but the color is still red in some places and there are a few big zits here and there. I have about 30 tiny zits and two big ones on my right cheek. It sucks balls man. But I can tell it is going to be all gone within two weeks. I've been on Derma Cleanse by Zen Med or maybe that's Zen Med by Derma Cleanse. I don't know but I paid 100 bucks for each time I bought it. There's pills and a cleanser and a lotion. It works, but slowly. It "cleans from the inside out" All I know is it better clear me up soon. Oh, the real point of this post was to bash creatine once again and to tell that my acne problem is a main reason I can't find enough nerve to ask this girl out. I flirt with her, but not as much as she does with me. I know she likes me, but shit I don't feel confident right now. I'm wondering if she is wondering the same thing as me. "When is this acne going to clear up?" I don't know but I hope soon. My acne problem is also the reason I found Penis Enlargement. I looked into one night when I was feeling down BIG TIME. I couldn't even find it in me to jerk off I was so down. I was looking at it going man even if I didn't have this acne she'd probably laugh my penis. So I looked it up and eventually found Penis Pride and then I worked on Penis Enlargement for 3 months then found this site. So there I guess my damn ugly acne helped me out in at least one way.
