Levorex + Green Tea extract = puking

[ophira]

I'm training for a Half Ironman (in June) and I want a little kick to get through the hours of training.

I've used T-rex before with no side effects other than an intense speedy feeling, but this time, I can't stomach it. It makes me feel like I'm going to explode out of my skin while projectile vomiting.

So I got some Lexorex and Green Tea extract and decided to give these a shot (I can't seem to remember where I saw this particular combination. I've been searching the boards for the past few days with my limited non plat access and I can't find it. I think I read it in one of Bunny's old logs, but I could be mistaken)

Anyway, the combination makes me *SO* nauseous, despite taking it with a banana or potassium supplement. In fact, when I got to my mid afternoon dose on Tuesday, I actually threw up once it hit my system.
I've stopped taking everything other than my vitamin.

Is this normal? What's going on with me? Help is greatly appreciated!

I usually will get sick to my stomach if taking it on empty .. Levorex has a decent amount Green tea in it I thought, adding more may aggravate the situation? Maybe stop take the extra and see if that's what's causing it??

I get that with zinc now pretty bad.. I have to have a complex carb in my system, a large portion to be able to stomach it (zinc) ... even them it still make me feel like blah for like 2 hours, ugh ...

Thanks Bunny! What do you take zinc for? Like when you get a cold?
I'm gonna stay off everything till next week, then I'll try your suggestion. I'll let you know if it works

really cant think of any reason other than low blood sugar. Green tea and levorex both have glucose clearance effects. if its not that, am at a loss with the information given.

are you using thermorexin as well?

all those together with what is likely very high intensity training could easily lead to low blood glucose.

Wow!

A trip to the doctor yesterday revealed a major biological reason for a bunch of my symptoms It's scary how out of tune with your body you can be while being so in tune with your body.
Wow...!!

So a different question, have I done any irreparable damage? I only took the Trex once and stopped because the response was so severe, and I've been taking the Lexorex/Tea combo for 2 weeks. I'm 9 weeks along!

This SO explains why my splits have been way off.

Oh congratulations! I hope, even if unexpected, that it works out for you!!! My friend said the same thing- one pregnancy she was vomiting and nauseous at everything and working out was a nightmare in the beg..next one she had no morning sickness, symptoms,nothing--could not even tell!! Congrats again!

Before my first baby I took hydroxycut with ephedrine. I was having the same problem. Could not keep anything down. About 8 weeks into my pregnancy and 10 weeks into hydroxycut found out I was pregnant! I was worried and told my doctor. They weren't too worried, and my daughter is beautiful and very bright and perfect! Don't worry too much. Eat well and get lots of rest, try not to stress the small stuff. Enjoy this time in your life. I lived off pineapple for months with both my girls! It was all I could eat. Congrats!!

THanks for all the wishes!
I've been stressing myself out pretty well regarding the coffee and supplements and what not.... I've got my first apt with my ob in a couple weeks. It's my first time and it's all a bit overwhelming. very exciting. again, thanks for all the positive vibes
