Hello, all. I'll just start off by giving you my stats. I'm 30 years old, 6'0", 255 lbs., and I'd estimate about 12% b/f (you can see all my abs, just a very thin layer over my obliques and lower abs. I started a cycle of the following to shed off that very last bit of fat I have on my frame:
BPS Combustion @ 3 caps/day
PES Alpha T2 @ 3 caps/day
Zip! @ 3 caps/day
First off, don't worry about the Zip!, because I started it after I started the Combustion and Alpha T2 and experienced the problems I am having before starting Zip!.
I just started this cycle yesterday, and it was going great. I had a high level of focus and "clean" alertness/energy. The problems began after my workout. I come home, make a postworkout shake, and I have trouble getting it down. I'm hungry, but it just doesn't taste as good as it usually does; I had to force it down. Next was my postworkout meal an hour later. I could only get down about half of my meal. No biggie, I somewhat expected this with the reported side effects I've read with suppressed appetite.
The real problem began this morning before I got off work. I was feeling alert and focused, which was great, but I felt kind of crummy I didn't really feel "sick", but it wasn't pleasant. I chalked it up to the supplements and figured I'd just deal with it. Over the years, I've done supplements that were a lot more "hardcore" than this stuff (i.e. 2,4-Dinitrophenol, aka "DNP"). I ate a light meal before bed - some chia seeds, pecans, fish oil, green beans, and a grilled chicken breast. After I ate it, I wasn't feeling good. I then felt the dreaded watering of the mouth and stomach churning. I knew I couldn't fight it, and I ran into the bathroom to vomit. I felt much better after that and then ate a similar meal before going to bed.
Sleep was difficult last night, and again, I figured I'd just deal with the sides for the month I planned on running this cycle. I finally wake up this afternoon and take my morning dosage of supplements, and I started Zip! since it arrived on my doorstep today. While I was getting ready to go for a run, I wasn't feeling to great, and I burped a few times, tasting the fish oil I had ingested about 6 hours ago. I then had a sneaking suspicion that for whatever reason or another, my stomach was locked up and some of the food I had eaten before bed was still sitting in my stomach.
I then went for a run, about 3 miles, though, due to my feeling not-so-hot, I was going at a pretty light pace, with the exception of the occasional 30-40 second wind sprint. Finally, at about mile 2, and just after finishing a wind sprint, I had that dreaded feeling again. I stopped resisting it and vomitted out whatever was left in my stomach. I hadn't eaten anything for 6 hours, but there were still chunks of food from what I had eaten this morning before bed. I didn't puke up everything I had eaten before bed, so I would assume that my stomach was not "locked up" completely. Anyways, after puking of course, I felt much better. I finished up my run and here I am now.
Does anyone have a clue which supplement or ingredient might be causing me these problems? I just dumped $100 on these supps, so I don't want to toss them all out because I'm having some issues with them. Honestly, I can handle all of the sides, save for the puking and food not digesting properly. I have to be able to at least get in the calories I need, as I don't want to lose precious muscle mass in my effort to shed off my last 5-10 lbs of bodyfat.
Would lowering the doses be enough? Should I run the Combustion and Alpha T2 separately to figure out which one is causing the problems?
I'd appreciate ANY help you guys can offer...
