Ulter!

I'm leaving for vacation for a week...

...just thought it only fair that you should be the first to know:

My girlfriend hit 118 lbs on the scale this morning. This is down from 123 lbs using between 400-600mg r-ALA daily.

Thanks bro.
My wife lost 8 pounds in 14 days without training using r-ALA and kept saying "NO PROBLEM , she'll get there you'll see".
Have fun out there, stay safe.

I'm so glad to see you two kiss and make up. It brings a tear to my eye.

I don't know... I sort of miss calling Ulter a carpetbagging fag. It was sort of the highlight of my day.

Now I've got to put up with crap at home like my girlfriend walking around 5 times a day giving me this wide eyed smiling innocent look and saying, "This r-ALA is great stuff."

Footnote by the way... we raised her daily calorie intake by about 300 calories a day 3 days ago. This drop to 118 lbs indicates an increase in her daily calorie consumption.

I hope that stuff works as well as you guys say...I need to drop 20lbs and fight the light-heavy weights...Screw fightin those big bastards...

I am pretty sure the reason I don't react well with ALA is cause I am insulin resistent.

Glad it's working for you guys.

I have a suspicion r-ALA's benifits are VERY age related. My girlfriend and I are getting great results... but we are also in our 40s. I'm 43. She's 45. My experience and her's seems to be that r-ALA is putting us back at the insulin sensitivity/resistance level we had when we were in our 20s. Neither of us could store bodyfat to save our lives back then.

I'm very skeptical that a normal 20-25 year old would get nearly the benefit we are getting. It may help an insulin resistant younger person as much as us. It may not. I just don't think that is a known variable yet.

Oops, double post.

That's interesting, because ALA opponents claim that ALA gives benefit only to people with poor insulin sensiitivity. People with good insulin sensitiivity shouldn't get most of the positive effects of ALA. Right MS?

Something is contradictory here...

maybe i was too quick to judge r-ala... because i was reading a post by nandi on cutting edge and he was talking about gh and insulin resistance... seems to me ALA was working better in general before i had eve used GH...

sk* insulin resistance would make it work in your favor, you mean insulin sensitive.

SofaG I know you are gone but.... I don't think the effectiveness is age related. It IS related to your insulin sensitivity however and THAT as you know CAN be age related. Though it doesn't have to be. I see an awful lot of people 21 who are overweight, puffy, with poor eating habits that are the picrure of insulin resistance in action.
