The skin tightening could take a while to notice... The first things I noticed was better sleep, better immune system, smoother skin, fuller shinnier hair. Then I noticed muscle growth, then a lil fat loss. Didnt get much for skin tightening, but I wasnt on it a really long time (less than 6 months). As for side effects, the worst one I had was water retention.

OH... and I actually gained 4 pounds in just over a week of being on the HG!! BUT I will say that my water percentage is up to 51% and it was normally down in the lower 40's before HG. My body fat percentage is at 25%.... so I am thinking the HG is at work.) My goal is to get my BF% down to somewhere between 12 and 18%.
How much water are you drinking Kris ?
The one thing that will help you with water retention is drinking more water.
Drinking lots of water helps u shed the extra water your body is retaining.

The water retention I got with HGH was really high (like at least 10 pounds), my diet was good (I didnt have water retention before the HGH), I did really up my water, took supplements such as fish oil, potassium, etc.. and it did minimal to help, but the lil it did was enough for me to still do that.... your body should become more adjusted to the HGH after some time and the water retention will receed.

Thanks!! I am having a bit of side effects from the HGH right now. Usually at night while I'm sleeping my hands get tingly and numb. I have done some reading and I'm thinking I should talk to my doc and ask if I should decrease the amount I am taking to see if that goes away. It's annoying. It doesn't happen at all during the day. Other than that, I haven't had any other side effects since a week or two of starting, and even then it was only headaches. (thank god they're gone) UGH! My prescription says to take 1mg (.25cc) injection twice daily. If I figured it out right that means I am taking about 6IU's a day, 3IU @ 10AM and 3IU @ 10PM
Oh, and I actually had RNY (Gastric Bypass) almost 2 years ago, that is how I lost the 100 pounds. I have been working out as well because I didn't want an excessive amount of skin hanging around, although it didn't 100% work.
Well, sorry for rambling here! I hope you all have a great day!!

Hi Kris,
You look great, congrats on your weight loss !
6 iu's is a really high dose for a women, usually women do well with 1-2 iu's ED.
You should definitely talk to your doctor about the dose, specially since your having those sides...
Tighting the skin after such a rapid and major weigth loss is difficult, continue your exercise routine, it takes time for the skin to tighten, hopefully you'll see the results your looking for.
Good luck to u~
