My OBGYN prescribed Clomid for cycle days 5-9 to help get me to ovulate.
Well, after 3 months of taking it, I'm taking a couple of months off. I cannot believe what a tub of lard I have become. Basically I found out the drug also makes the body think it's not producing enough estrogen, so it OVER produces it! GREAT- just what I need.
I'm taking a couple of months off because I have a class reunion and a wedding in Wales at the end of August, and I want to look good for it. I am also adding 1/2 tab of Nolva every day last week and this week, then EOD for 2 weeks, the E3D to help get my estrogen levels under control.
Just to give you all an idea of the battle I've been fighting, for the past 4 weeks, I have been taking ECA, doing 45 min of cardio 5-6 times a week, and working out with weights and have lost very little, if any BF. I've been eating super clean about 85% of the time...with the occasional cheat...My diet looks like this:
1- 4 egg whites, 1 whole. 1/2c oats or 1/2 grapefruit
2- 5oz chicken, & 2c greens or 1/2 wheat pasta brown rice and 1c greens.
3- 2 scoop shake w/ 1 rice cake w/ 1 tbsp natty PB
4- 5oz fish or chicken, red meat 2x/wk 2c. greens
5- 2 scoop shake w/ a couple strawberries.
The point of this thread is that it's amusing to me how I can work so hard and see no results. I don't know what gives, or how much longer it will be before I start seeing results. I'm doing more activity now than I did when I trained for my show, and eating almost exactly the same- minus the cheat meals..
