Weight gain/bloat day of injection

Lowtuk said:

Has anyone experienced this?

I always get a big influx of weight 3-4 lbs from morning to night when I take the injection in the morning. In other days I see a 1-2 lbs increase.

I’m taking 40mg every Mon/thurs however I had the same issue when I was taking 25mg M/W/F.

I know this is only temporary but injection day and the day after is 4 days a week where I’m carrying unnecessary weight and looking puffy.

Is this a spike in E2 with the shot? I don’t think so as I did my shot on Monday AM and got my E2 checked in the eve and it was 38.

Is this an issue with aldosterone? Should I supplement with potassium when I take the shot to help with this?

Any help would be great, feel like I’m finally getting dialled in but this is the last side that is really bothering me.

Incase any questions about diet. Today was a very typical day and was:

Breakfast: 1 mango, 2 kiwi fruit, 1 peach
13k lunch time run
Lunch 250g chicken, 200g white rice, broccoli
Dinner: not had this at time of weighing myself but this will be 250g chicken and 200g white rice.
Drank 4-5 liters of water

Systemlord - I went 25mg 3 times a week but still happened. How do I combat the aldosterone?

you’ll need to inject smaller doses, more frequently

If I dose the diuretic, should I do this when I take the injection? Also I sweated like a pig earlier, ran in 34 degree heat for 90 mins so should have dropped a ton of water?

Ok so you’re saying go back to M/W/F but drop from the 25mg to 15mg?
