Please Scroll Down to See Forums Below I'm currently working on losing a lot of fat. Lost about 28 pounds (definately have gained muscle and strength) and am currently using an e/c stack. I still feel I have about 20 or so more pounds to lose. (for some reason, my goal gets to a lower and lower weight lol., It's been "25 lbs" since I started. Even though I've lost 28, I still have 20 to go....) Anyway, heard GREAT things about YES, but was wondering if I should wait to use it. Like when I get my bf around 16-17%.
When to start YES?
- Thread starter fmorrow6
- Start date
Well, I'll tell u my stats, I'm 5'9.5" and weigh 190. I started at 218. My bf was done with a seven point test in the beginning (JAN) at 29.9% and a month ago was down to 19.7%. I'm getting it done again today. I'm also getting my measurements done today. I was asking, because other transdermal gels say u should wait until your fairly lean befor using it.

Congrats on the progress!!! I was wondering the same thing too. I'm glad you asked the question. I'm getting better with the diet and I'm ready to introduce something into my plan to help me reach my goals. I didn't want too use it too soon because I was afraid I would fall into the old traps I was in before I started doing this (i.e., Slapping on lots of whatever product or doing crazy amounts of cardio to justify the bacon cheesburger I had for lunch).
*Bunny* said:It's the carbs...
I have a shirt that says "I love carbs" that I wear to the gym with a pig and a cow on it... People just LOVE me there b/c my shirts ALL have smart ass comments on them
haha
p.s. help is on the way
girl I almost spit out my egg whites...It really is the lack of carbs it makes you forgetful and all silly in the head.
I don't know how many times my boyfriend has said to me this week, "what's wrong with your head?" lol
As far as when to begin YES goes it all depends on your budget. It's going to release fat for you to burn from day one. But many people wait until they are leaner so the progress is more noticeable.
shugga, the DF doesn't have the energy boosters in it that YES has. Otherwise they are the same. Both are very effective.

Thanks to all. I'm still real antsy about posting my pics. I have to look at my fat ass, my hubby has to look at my fat ass, I don't think I need to impose my fat ass on the internet community!!!!!
Of course, once I reach my goal, I'll have my before/after pics posted all over the damn place!!!!!
I'll give it another month before I add the YES. Nycgirl, tell me how it goes for u.

We are different re: pics. The ladies are very supportive. It took a lot for me to do it, bu I posted some pics at the beginning of the month. I'm finally going to post some updated pics this weekend. I didn't think I changed much from the beginning of the month. My bf is amazed at my results (even though my diet for March wasn't perfect).
At least take the pics for yourself to view your progress. I will keep you update re: YES.

I just want to put this out there -
All of us sometime in our lives have been or felt like a fat ass - doesn't really matter what the reality is because sometimes how you feel consumes what you really look like anyway.
So what am I trying to say...
We'll love ya and support you no matter what.

I started using it about a month ago or so. When I started, I was 23% bf. I'm now 15%. I'm a mesomorph so I carry a lot of estrogenic fat on my thighs and hips. I'm still working on those areas.
Someone mentioned that they saw dimpling in the areas where they used YES. I experienced the same result - so I know it's doing something. I only use it on my ars, hips and upper legs. Between my diet, training and supplements (YES included) I'm getting somewhere.
09-13-05 my hip measurement was 37.5 - now it's 36.5

I've been using YES, but typically I do my workouts in the evenings after work. So I put it on after my morning shower...and I can feel it working more that way. I hope its not a MUST that I use it pre-workout...?

I know and have read the "instructions" on the bottle...but since this sucker is $50 per bottle, I would LOVE to know how to get the best results from this. How can I exfoliate or whatever after work prior to workout (I go straight from work to the gym) when putting on YES? Any ideas? Anyone else have a similar situation?

you could use a wet wash cloth.

Hot, wet washcloth. Scrub the area well. Make sure the area is dry and apply. Go about your workout and if you do cardio - do it last.

Good idea, guys! Thanks! (I'm saying to myself: "duh!")

I tried the washcloth, and unfortunately it didn't work too well. 
So now I'm trying a little bristle scrubber...so far that works I guess about as good as its gonna get without scrubbin' in the tub.

Why .... what happened?

Well, I scrubbed real good with the washcloth, and I put on the YES...it was just as if I hadn't used the washcloth (I didn't feel the "burn" like I do when I do it right out of the shower)....

Hmmmmm, I think being in the hot shower with the steam and all is the key.
