ec question
Hey guys,
ive been taking a stack for the past 3 weeks at a dosage of 24mg eph/ and 200 mg caffeine twice a day. lately i hadnt been feeling the effects cause i built a resistance so i stoppped. I had seen great results in the past 3 weeks and I was gonna start again in a week or so.
The problem is my appetite when i stopped, its crazy and of course it had to happen on thanksgiving weekend, im wondering if this has happened to anyone else, apetite going through the roof when stopping the stack cause i went overboard but its ok , ill just run some more but man that was crazy...
any thoughts on this.

why exactly did you stop?
cause you did feel it anymore?

Ec suppresses your appetite a lot. I can go half a day without eating if I didn't make myself eat. It's the only thing I've ever taken that effects my appetite so greatly. With that said, I have felt the rebound once I stop taking it for sure. It's like I am starving and can't get enough food in me. It's nuts. I think it's not so much that I am actually starving, but that it suppresses my appetite so much that when off of it I go back to a more normal appetite, but it feels like I can't eat enough. Make sense? LOL

from what I have read even after you stop feeling the effects of the E/C stack it still has the same fat burning properties as when you first started it.

That may hold a small amount of truth, but its not totaly true. While yes your body will aclimate to the stim and you won't feel the initial "energy" that you did, but ephedra works off of beta receptors, which are very sensitive. After continuios use they will get burned out and cease to react.

you "nervousness" is cuased by a stim overload. Too many stimulants gives me very intense anxiety, so you don't have to worry about it "messing with your head". If your that sensitive you should work your way up from a lower dosage, and are you taking it on an empty stomach?

I would look into something to increase blood flow to the brain after being on EC for any longer period of time. I always do about 1.5 g's of Piracetam daily after being on for over 3 weeks, at full dose

just like they did last year when we spanked them
and back to the subject lol, make sure you have adequate time inbetween dosages and try taking it w/ food at lunch. You just sound over stimulated to me bro

i looked up piracetam and it does increase blood flow to the brain...would this help with the feeling that ec stack gives me or the coming off of it and fighting cravings afterwards??
