HOY-Because I HAD to try it...

[rono]

Hi All (11/17/2022),

So, this is interesting and if @Shannon gets a chance would appreciate his feedback.

• I had a funny feeling that I needed an extra day of break before starting the sub so I took a 2 day break (instead of just 1) AND I could feel it 'bloom' both days. Makes me wonder if I should try a 3rd day
  
• Was going to back off the volume on this cycle, but when I went to start the sub, my subconscious seemed to be nudging me to keep it at 9, trying to compromise, the first night I did it at 8, but then following days went back to 9.
  
• Have been feeling the effects more than in the previous month. Last month had a couple colds, viruses or such and am now over the last vestiges of the cough, so that could be part of it.
  
• The effects I'm feeling do not correspond to raised libido or sexual performance, both of which are at a low ebb as in just barely functional. 
  
• The effects I'm feeling are most like when I went on peptides prescribed by my doctor to boost growth hormone. That is: improved sleep and some improvement on energy, muscles feel fuller and respond better to exercise than in the previous 2 months, without eating less or changing my calorie intake (or outflow) I am dropping some weight again, which had begun to creep up. Now it has trended down over the last 2 cycles, especially this current cycle I'm wrapping up tomorrow.
  
• I have found that the improved energy level, fades quickly--especially some days--but this could be that I'm still dealing with some long covid symptoms. I'm going to my functional medicine doctor at the end of the month to discuss these.
  

Overall, I'm more encouraged that I was last week. Maybe it's all coming together now? Hope it is!

Have a blessed Thanksgiving if I don't get around to posting before.

Cheers!
