Dyazide / Aldactone Question... Photo Shoot Jan 18th

[AAP]

Ok, never used a diuretic before. Which one would be best?

I have a photo shoot on Jan 18th in the early morning 8AM outside and an indoor shoot at 6PM on Jan 25th.

Those of you who have seen me know I have extreme vascularity. For those of you who haven't, here are my stats.

28 years old, 5'11", 240lbs, bodyfat is in the single digits, six pack and serratus is very clear, using EQ and winny in this stack.

I want to use a diuretic to really shrink wrap the skin tighter around myself for the morning shoot. I am planning on doing a high protein diet for the next two weeks, 400 grams or more and under 100 grams of carbs this first week, under 50 grams Mon, Tue, Wed of next week, under 10 grams of carbs Thurs and Fri. I will take the diuretic on Thurs and Friday (going to be early on Fri)

Waking up at 3am Saturday morning to consume two sweet potatos every hour until the photo shoot, this will give me the carb rush I need to carb up and swell the muscles. One coca cola while pumping up and lots of water.

Since I am not going to be on diuretics long - only two days - and I do not plan on taking any potassium supps (Rx kind) along with it, which would be better?

Dyazide or Aldactone. I can also get Aldactzide and Lasix as well.

I'm taking Aldactone and Lasix for some Renal impairment I've got going on right now. Aldactone is considerably mild compared to Dyazide or Lasix. I typically use Aldactone and Lasix on alternate days. However, the way the ER Doctor prescibed them... he wants me to use them together on the same day, as one is Potassium sparing and the other a loop diuretic. Whenever I use Lasix, I take a Potassium supplement... otherwise my electrolytes crash and I feel like shit. On the days the edema in my legs is bad, I take 100mg of Aldactone AND 40mg of Lasix... its a formidable combonation and its results are dramatic. With the Potassium supplement, there's virtually no sides.

Stack both with dandilion and b-6. That will work sick bro...TRUST ME. If the shoot is on saturday, start taking aldactone on wednesday. Break it down like this...

Wed: 1/2 aldcactone PM
thurs: 1/2 aldcactone AM, 1 diazide PM
fri: 1/2 aldcactone AM, 1/2 aldcactone and 1 diazide PM
sat: 1/2 aldcactone and 1 diazide AM, 1/2 aldcactone and 1 diazide PM

* never take any at the exact same time, and buy some twin lab multi mineral capsules and take 2-3 saturday morning to avoid cramps. No patasuim needed.

I don't have any diuretic input. I just want to say I saw your pics and you are lean and vascular as a MOFO!!!!

Buld0g- Why do you reccomend not taking them at the same time. On the days that I take Aldactone and Lasix together... I take them with my cereal in the morning. What do you reccomend I do?

 

[AAP]

yeah buldOg, is there any reason not to take them together? Also, should I start reducing my water intake on Thursday as well to just sips of water throughout the day.

Texas Ranger - thanks, I am trying to get that onion skin thinness look now. I don't really have any fat to loose, just want to draw the tiny percent of water out of my skin to make it looked shrinked wrapped.

I had a couple of ones taken with a crappy camera. When my prints come back, I may post the link up to my website and keep it free for a couple of days before it becomes a pay site.

One last bump cause I would like to know....

 

[Buld0g]

Sorry I took so long guys...I was told by XXXXXXXXX never to take them at the same time. Take them like an hour or two apart.

I was in the local health food store a few years ago buying some supps. When I picked up a bottle of charcoal caps the owner mentioned not to take it at the same time as the other supps I was taking so as not to interfere with digestion on the whole. It would be less effective all at once. After all has been assimilated you would benefit from the synergistic effect.
