>>43572716I started pio at borderline overweight. I kept most my male fat but gaining weight caused most of it to go to my hips, thighs and butt. But my tummy is still very male so idk.I think my boobs have grown or at least improved in shape since starting so I don't think it stops breast growth like some people fearmonger about.I am planning on having a break from pio for a few months though because it increases my appetite massively, and I want to try and maintain my weight for a few months while going on more walks in order to see if that reduces my tummy.
>>43572892Sent^^
I was already health maxxed so the benefit was only slightly noticeable my viseral fat did decrease on dexa, but visually the change was small, I guess I just have genetically unfortunate high adominal subcutaneous fat. No increase in lateral hip fat, was not underweight or anything either.
>>43572716have yet to start but it's arriving soon, gonna go on 30mg/day dose.... current weight 59 kg, hoping for 64-68 kg weight but lowk i struggle with weight gainnn
>>43572716Anamaxxing didn't work and then now weightcyling via pio doesnt work. I will rope soon. Please gib attention
>>43574865Gym maxx you dumbfuck, skinny fat never looks best
bump
>>43572835what does sw, cw and gw stand for?????
>>43572716ive been on 30mg a day for 2 months while I lose weight. I feel like ive lost more belly fat than I otherwise would have
>>43577554start weight, current weight, goal weight
haiii i love pio its done me really well! im about a month in and am noticing some good changes. ive only gained two lbs but i def see a difference! im currently taking 15mg twice a day :)
>>43577583If anyone can't get pio, you can try doing >40grams of resistant starch(along with high fiber diet in general), 4 cups green tea, and HIIT to get an increased lose of adominal fat, I tried it and it works and supported in the literature
>>43577630why is this in reply to me?
>>43572716bump
>>43572892I'm thinking about fatmaxxing too. Is it alright if I send you a fr too?
i started hrt a little bit overweight with a bit of a tummy. i read stuff about weight cycling on here and so ive lost 20-30lbs in the past few months, and am planning on losing probably another 20-30lbs more before starting slowly putting weight back on until i feel im at a good weight (and maybe repeating that idk). Is it worth me getting on pio? im a heighthon but my hips are one of like two parts of my skeleton i think im lucky in and so i think emphasising them would do a lot for me...sorry if this is a lot of stupid questions/statements
>>43580801my underbust measurement has gone down like 4-5cm while ive been losing weight while my bust has stayed the same which has been nice
>>43577621>only gained two lbs but i def see a difference
>>43572835>ive thought about losing weightkinda want to bully you just because you were mean to skinnies
>>43572960>only slightly noticeable my viseral fat did decrease on dexai thought the whole point was it was supposed to do the opposite
>>43582338i do my hips looks wider shut up
>>43577630>you can try doing >40grams of resistant starch(along with high fiber diet in general), 4 cups green tea, and HIIT to get an increased lose of adominal fat, I tried it and it works and supported in the literaturesource?? i will do this and report back if you give me the study
>>43584346i sprinkled some salt on my food yesterday and gained 1kg

>>43584335Uh no reducing visceral fat is a major component of its efficiency in treating diabetes.Why would you want more visceral fat? That's moid coded fat.
>>43584667o i read increase im dum
>>43584550>Bodypass

>>43584550>>43584898i was going to say those are awesome results but did you samefag yourself with name on....
>>43584550I feel like you started way too early on hrt to say pio is responsible frankly
>>43585257i know bumping normally is boring >>43584989that's true for most anything u do in transition tbqhon>>43585272that's true it's hard to know what's pio and what's not but i'm too afraid to get off T~T
In a month I developed tachycardia, severe edema in my legs, and permanently changed my metabolism, I also became far more sensitive to insulin and my entire diet had to change
>>43585384D: wait this was on like 15-30mg :(
>>43585384Yea I always tske spiro with it for the Edema

>>43587351well obviously you have to GAIN OR LOSE WEIGHT
>>43572716I'm on retatrutide right now, cutting through the summer and doing so much cardio. I have 6 months of pio that I'm waiting for the fall to start as a major bulk. I'm hoping to gain 30-50lbs while hitting weights (glutes/legs) hard through the winter.
>>43572892i have a very important Q for you so i added u
>>43572716I've been taking measurements since I started 11 weeks ago. My WHR has gone from 0.83 to 0.79, and I'm not on HRT. The stuff works.
>>43590020>and I'm not on HRTwhy?
my boobs gotten different more round looking and my butt and thighs got massively bigger but my tummy too
>>43592252did your boobs get much bigger or did they just round out?
>>43584989I did use without ever beeing on hrt. I'm on duta and I wanted more fem shape without e , tits or cellulite. It works pretty well, im happy
