wow...simply amazing. This is a prime example of what happens when you DO NOT DO YOUR RESEARCH.
Give us your stats bro. Give us as much information as you can for anyone to help you. First cycle?

You could take .5mg Arimidex to battle the estrogen and take 20mg Nolva to keep the water down.

I would just wait it out. Wait till you are done, you are going to loose a lot of that water anyways. Let the help you. It will keep your joints lubed and make you look bigger. When you do you PCT, it will help. What is your plan for PCT?

Have you stopped eating McDonalds? Seriously, I hope you're watching your Sodium intake in everything you eat and drink like a hawk. Sodium will destroy the money and hard work spent on any cycle. Drink loads of lemon water to flush out your system. Then try some of the mentioned gear. If that doesn't work, then, oink, oink. lol JK.

I eat McDonalds two or three times a week. Some people just get water retention. The deca does the same thing to me. The Nolvadex will take care of the water and your bodies natural metabolism. Drop the clomid, IMO.

depends on if you want the water or not...smaller guys with low BF want the water...helps them gain...if you don't want the water then use teh Anti-e's....assuming you are at what you say 14-15% BF you probably don't want much water...so use your anti-e's...also the more BF you have the more gear aromatizes...i am about 20% BF before cycle anyway...doing better now...but yeah i use the anti-e's and i will live by them as long as i use AAS

lol, I shit you not. I know it sounds retarded. I don't know how it does it, but I did it after I met the trainer of this old school bodybuilder, remember Francis Benfatto? I was asking him how to keep my body clean while on a cycle so I dont get sodium rentention and oil buildup in the body because I wanted to control water retention and acne. He told me put a couple of lemons in a gallon of water and drink it every day. It worked. It sounded stupid but I had clean skin and very little water retention while i was on sust/d-bol/deca. I just expelled alot of urea and junk out of my body. One time I was watching ESPN, and they were talking to the Yankees conditioning coach during spring training, and he said he made everyone drink lemon water only during spring training because it cleans out your body and gives you an energy boost. Bernie Williams said it worked and he felt great, and he laffed because he thought something else was in it that nobody knew of. Which might be true. But I've done it with every cycle I ever did and I believe in it. Who knows, try it out every day during a cycle and tell me what you think.

It can't hurt, but keep one thing in ming - too much lemon may cause your dick to go limp. I remember hearing that one from an old European chef that I used to work with. Never squeeze too much lemon on your oysters - it will take the lead right out of your pencil.
YMMV,

I'm gonna try it. I'm really concerned with my sodium retention. So is my doc. When my workout clothes dry, they're nearly white from sodium I've sweated out. Might very well be the cause of my high blood pressure. Hell, if squeezing a couple of lemons in a gallon of water every day helps, great. If not, well, at least I've gotten some extra vit C.
Thanks much bro. K4U

How's your diet? I'm sure you watch your sodium intake, but maybe you're predisposed to retain salt. I noticed Bill Phillips advises using lemon juice on anything you would usually put salt on. Poultry, fish, and even put it on plain pasta, rice, salad, vegtables. It's very hard to stick with but it's not all that bad if you allow yourself a cheat day of eating normally salty foods. I usually force myself to do it and it's torturous but it reaps a hell of a lot of benefits.
And as far as too much lemon juice making your dick limp.lol I don't know, I've been doing it for years and my dong is like steel. Although my GF hates the taste of my load when I use lemons in everything. lmao. Oh well. Put sugar in it and make lemonade byyatch!

lemon water is an very old remedy. it also works when you're trying to get sober, from drinking, it makes you throw up, i.e: clean out your system. this is very common is a lot of cultures.

Try Perijil Water big 24oz before bed, keeps water retention down!!. I also think Deca might cause water Retention a lot more then other compounds. I would replace with EQ or Primo but if thats all you got, try some Liquidex or Letro
