Cr appy account syndrome

Consider me a fan of Certain Dri.  It's best to put it on at night but you can get away with putting it on at any time.  After a week or so you will be pretty much bone dry.  After a couple weeks you only have to put it on every couple of days.  I'm a guy so my forehead also sweats pretty bad in the summer so during the summer I put it on my forehead as well and it works like a charm.  It can sting a little bit some times and you can get a slight rash but if you use it in moderation you should be alright.

And as for all the studies, I'll take my chances.  Everything seems to give you cancer or some such.  Until something positive comes out like Hydroxycut I'm going to keep using

Yeah it is dehydration.  You feel awesome because your suddenly 2-4 lbs down but after you eat and drink it goes right back up.  Then it's discouraging because for the next few days you are trying to get back down to that weight but you have water weight again.

Because of this I never weight myself after a night of drinking and pretty much stopped weighing myself on the weekend altogether.  I weigh on Friday, then again on Monday.  If I can maintain on those two day I win.  Any loss is just icing on the cake.
