Ive been dosing 2 FF upon waking and 1FF early afternoon religiously. Havent missed a single dose.
Just took my 1 afternoon cap, and counted the remaining caps.... 16!
27 days x3 = 81. There should only be 9 left.
AppNut bean counters dun goofed and sent me 7 extra caps.Last edited by sloop; 03-08-2012 at 05:29 PM.

Workout today: Taking the evening off to play poker with some friends after work. I need a de-load period, everything is constantly sore and I need a couple days to rest up.

Hope you win a lot of $$$$ at the poker table tonight. Nothing like taking money from your bros. Haha! When I played football in college, we used to get together in the dorms and play some pretty epic poker. Some guys lost all their stipend money for the semester in a couple of hours....pretty crazy stuff. Saw some great fights over the card games, too.

Even though I have 3 days worth of capsules left, I think it's only fair to judge the product on the # of pills that should be in the bottle (90). For some reason I got a couple extra caps, so this may not be indicitive of your experience should you choose to run/log this product. I'll be judging the product on it's merit of 30 days.....
After 30 days on Fat Free, here are the final numbers.
Starting weight.
Final weight after 30 days.
Conclusion:
Daily average
Calories: 1878
Protein: 172g
Carbs: 184g
Fat: 34g
With the exception of two cheat meals - not cheat days - (day #13, #15) and 1 day I could not keep account of (day #21) at The Arnold Classic, these are my final numbers. Not bad at all, considering my goal was to keep it below 1900 calories per day. There was very little guessing on my macros, I wrote everything down throughout the day to be as accurate as possible.
Things to consider:
- I lost the majority of my weight through days 1- 12.
- Coincidentally, I ran out of Drive on day 12. So from my experience, Drive + Fat Free is better than Fat Free alone at dropping weight.
- Fat Free, by itself, only yielded a 2.5 pound weight loss in the remaining 2 weeks.
- The appetite supression was very minimal, if any, after the first 2 or 3 days. I was constantly hungry the entire log.
- I only experienced a warmer "thermogenic" type feeling the very first few days. No sweating, no problems sleeping.
- HGH Up is totally bad ass. Sleep has never been deeper, and more relaxing. I would keep this as a staple if not so expensive.
- Not surprising, strength has gone down during this log. Given a caloric deficit, this should be expected.
I was very happy to meet my goal of 200 pounds, and surpass it, so that was easily the personal highlight of my log. Somehow I have 3 more days worth of caps left, so I am going to continue on at this pace and will report back if the weight changes. AppNut goofed and added a couple extra capsules to my bottle, but I dont guarantee this will happen for everyone.
AppNut Drive is a strange product. It doesn't really fit into any specific category, but I seem to respond very well to the forslean. Stacked with Fat Free seems to be the best way to go based on my experience. The effects are not immediately noticeable, and the reps have noted that prolonged use will bring about better results. I recently got a 240ct bottle to continue using, Im hoping this will add some endurance at the end of my workouts to aid in my post-weight training cardio runs.
I'm pretty happy with Fat Free, but not totally blown away. Perhaps I was expecting too much, which is often the case. Still, I think most people would be pleased with a 10.5 pound weight loss in 30 days. I can't help but wonder (and kick myself) for not getting the 240ct bottle of Drive from the start so I could have ran the FF + Drive combo the whole way through. The two together kick ass.
Thank you again, to Applied Nutriceuticals for the chance to log this new product, and thank you to the reps for keeping up on this log and providing input and support. Big thanks to chubbarock for the gracious gift as well. You're a good dude, seriously.
I hope this log met AppNut's standards. Just to pat myself on the back I:- Updated the log every day.
- Provided real, detailed macro information. Daily calories, protein, carbs, and fat intake.
- Posted actual pictures of the scale as proof. Nobody else is doing this. Anything less is a disservice to AppNut, IMHO.
- Provided detailed meal information, not "I had a turkey sandwich and took a poop lulz" updates.
- Posted a daily average of macros after 30 days of Fat Free usage.
In other words, my log was better than the others, just saying.
- I lost the majority of my weight through days 1- 12.

Great summary, George Takei approves!
I still haven't decided what fat burner I will take for my upcoming cut (I have a bunch of samples and such I will use at first). The appetite control is the big area I am worried about when I start dropping down my cals more.Kenshin and Dbone's Nursing Home Adventures (ongoing) ... http://tinyurl.com/ns23wak

Synergy? wut.
I dosed it the same way every morning, not missing a single dose. I would do 2 caps upon waking, and 1 cap in the afternoon.
Some mornings I was wide awake, other mornings I was able to take a nap a couple hours after waking up. I never felt jittery or zippy like I have on other fat burner type of products.

I think that you definitely have some sustainable weight loss here. Even though you didn't have a tremendous loss in those last couple weeks, I bet there was still some recomposition going on. I have a hunch that this isn't one of those logs where you just a hit a low number and bounce up 5 pounds back to reality after returning to maintenance.
I didn't know Drive had Forslean in it, checking out now because I love forskolin
gjdmHowever beautiful the strategy, you should occasionally look at the results - Dr. John Berardi
