You will be doing alot of monitoring. Hypo can sneak up on you and you will be eating like a horse until it goes away. From my experience with Insulin I would not recommend it at all for dieting. Awesome for bulking but you can eat all you want in a sense.

The guy who wrote that web page strikes me as a raving quack. There's a few nuggets of truth in there, mixed with some stuff that just isn't well backed by medical science. It's true that doctors don't know everything, but it's not true that medical science doesn't know anything, and that's apparently what this guy believes.

In general, you have to be very careful with slin. Misusing it can mess you up pretty good.

I don't mean to be preaching, just want to make sure everyone is careful.

Not advocating using slin for dieting- but i have been doing a personal experiment the past 4 weeks-
I am in dieting mode trying to lean up- and I have been successfully using slin in doing so-
I only use 10-12 iu's post workout with a shake containing 80 grams WMS- been going pretty good- dropped 12 pounds in past 4 weeks- and have maintained muscle- maybe even look a littler fuller-
I know 80 grams is little for 12 ius but i can get by- i have only felt hypo symptoms 2 times- and was able to shake it with a handfull of raisans-

Also- i only use the slin PWO 3-4 times a week- usually on major body part days- chest, back, legs

1st time to use slin while cutting- and has been going good so far----

2 to 3iu really isnt too dangerous at all unless you are retarded and sloppy with how you eat. If you were to do it and eat a protein only meal then you may go a little hypo but it wouldnt take much to correct it. 3iu only requires 20g to 30g of a sugar to keep you safe, dex is best, fructose is good too. You should still be careful just incase, but I dont see a big danger in it. And you will have to monitor your BG levels to keep it in that range and you will really have to plan your meal to take advantage of the insulin. If you do feel yourself feeling funny then just eat a pixy stick and you should be fine with that small amount of slin.

Yeah, I think open-mindedness to new approaches is good, but we shouldn't listen to someone with an everyone else is wrong but me attitude with caution.
