Here's what happened. Contrary to what I've read over and over again online, the people's experiences, DNP did not cause water retention.
Water definitely went away, but some fat did as well.
How fat mass affects bloat susceptibility
Back to fat tho. I tried to eat everything without foraging for good quality products.
— I did not have any appetite increase, just tried fueling my body with wonderworks of modern time.
— I'm eating on top of what I want... at these 3000 cals.
— Why appetite normal? I don't know yet, maybe my DNP is junk lol
Here's my lean prime that I wanna reach and exceed. 59 kg right there. Today I'm 72kg cause got some muscle
Before I trained lightly at home, did my stuff. Was on a steady path to getting lean again. I did stims for catecholamines (they cause your body to release the stored bodyfat to use as energy) and was comparing that to GH secretagogues (which do similar thing)
Both cause water retention however.
So I expected to get even more watery on DNP. But did that happen? Let's see.

When you got less fat you don't hold up on as much water either, your capacity to do that just diminishes. And in inverse proportion — ur capacity to eat carbs, go out, miss a cardio run at 4am — increases.

— 6 days have caused 6 pounds to disappear.Cookies: 2 packs, Cereal: 2 pounds of it 4500 kcal in 2 days. Butter cooking, multiple servings of pasta and rice (with all the butter and all the olive oil and raw yolks) croissants etc., guys. 6000 kcal for the first 3 days. Then I went easier with just 3000 via meat, milk, fruit.

Appetite suppressants? I am on washout from Reta. Last dose was 3 weeks ago at 45mg. This means it no longer gives me acute and potent appetite suppresion. It's not Reta. It's not coffee — I'm drinking 1-2 espressos. Used to do 20 daily which was around 1500mg caffeine.
