Fair hair, blue eyes, fair skin. I can get a healthy looking tan with a lot of effort at the solarium. I will try get a picture or two up.
 
So far im 4 shots in, tonight will be my 5th. I decided on a dose of 0.4mg/day... i no longer have the luxury of time that i once had when i planned to do a much lower dosage schedule. Maybe next time round.
 
I'm already noticing a darkening of moles. I have a mole on my nose that has become more prominent, it will be interesting to see just how dark and ugly it gets! I am avoiding sun exposure for the next 4 weeks, after which i'll jump in the solarium and get a start on my colour before giving myself some of natures UV.
 
Before starting i visited a dermatologist for a mole check. The moles were fine, however i had a couple of bumps on my knee that the doctor was curious of. After a biopsy, it turned out it was DH... a symptom of coeliac disease. Gluten free living from now on. Fuck i could kill for a pizza and some pasta.
 
Next on the list was my testosterone, liver and kidney function. Got my sperm done while i was there. All were within healthy range.
 
So after my first experience ordering didnt go so well, i was put off the idea and that set me back a few months. I still wanted to do it and so threw down some more cash and tried another company. Their product didnt look like shit and it was shipped unbroken. It was a good start.
 
Couldnt for the life of me find bacteriostatic water or saline anywhere in person, so just went with some sterile water i got from the needle exchange. Shot 2ml into my vial, drew up around 8 units (100 unit/ml syringes) and got like 22 filled before i got tired of the process and put them on ice. In hindsight, i should have used 2.5ml of water so i could have hit the 10 unit mark for my 0.4mg dose, getting to 8 units just isnt as easy to see as that big dirty line on the 10. For the most part they are reasonably accurate, but some are close to 6 units and others 10. I really dont feel like it will matter.
 
I left one of my fits out, it was a smaller one i had spotted with only 6 units in the barrel (0.3mg). Damn did the sterile water have an unexpected sting! Wish i'd just ordered some bac water off the net. Shit happens.
 
Within 15 minutes my face started to feel really hot and flushed. My girl got home from the gym not much later and looked at me like wtf is wrong with your face! Damn it was flushed. Other than that i had zero sides. No erections, nausea sudden death... nothing fun. The flushing stayed strong for maybe 2 hours before calming down and subsiding to being barely noticible after another 2. Once i felt sure i wasnt going to die from an allergic reaction i went to bed.
 
Woke up feeling tired. Could have been the melanotan or it maybe have just been that i had only 4 hours sleep... Either way had another shot that night, this one was bang on 9 units. No flushing or anything which was great... I didnt really enjoy looking like a hot tomato.
 
I again woke up feeling tired. Decided i needed to get a good nights sleep before i attributed it to the peptide. I had also just come off of oxycontin, which i had used for just under a week after my back was sore from a lumbar puncture (another story altogether). So maybe the loss of energy was from coming off that.

Water expands when it freezes, so draw some air into the syringe after you've filled it to the required amount with Melanotan. Otherwise you will lose some out the needle - hence the ice hanging out that you see.

I must apologise for not getting back sooner; I have been shifting house and been very busy. What a couple of weeks its been! Seriously, this is some wild shit. I have been dosing everyday at around 0.4mg and have missed 2 shots since starting. I had time off of work and with only maybe an hour total of sun exposure during that time i went back to work to everyone giving me a second glance like "what the hell!". Not only did my skin color take on a much darker tone within as little time as 2 weeks, but i developed an immense amount of freckles and moles that were once hidden are now extremely prominent. My lip has some, as do my ears, my nose, my penis. This is some powerful stuff. Do not underestimate this substance. Start slow. Start really slow. Im not regretful and i do not dislike the look of my skin, but i have had so many comments from people at work and i can clearly see myself that this stuff has caused a profound change in the appearance of my skin. People are asking me if ive had a spray tan. If im going to a solarium. Comments like "wow i didnt think you could tan". I didnt even intend for this to happen so fast, but it did. I have handled the change with ease and peoples questions and comments are easily laughed off and ended with me saying i spent some time outdoors on my time away from work.
 
Will get some pictures of my progress at the three weeks thus far, i promise. You have to see the change to believe it. My tone isnt all beautiful and amazing i just want you to see the change and the explosion of freckles and pigmentation.
 
My facial hair was darker within 2 weeks. Jet black from a blonde/black mix. Movember represent!
 
Sorry for my unstructured log. It's a bit like my life.
 
Ive had now about 22 shots. Looking at about 8-9mg total in me. I did the first 10 or so in my belly. Rotating sides each night. Until one night i hit a vessel and got a lovely looking bruise there. Then i decided to start shooting in the butt. I prefer that area, theres a little more to grab onto. It seems there are vessels here there and everywhere because ive had a total 4 bruises now from hitting small vessels, two in my cheek and the two in my stomach. I would try my legs but they are somewhat muscley and it just looks like i would end up giving myself IM injections.
 
Sun resistance (protection?) was seemingly increased after only 10 days when i spent some time outside and didnt get burned. I expected a bit of burn but got nothing. Now that im 3 weeks in my skin does get some redness when i overexpose myself but within 2 days it fades. It has peeled, even as soon as the next day. But its not your typical peel where you fry yourself and can tear strips off your body. Its just flakey skin that rubs off. My skin seems thicker. I have sensitive skin and it seems somewhat less sensitive now, although it may just be pigment masking reaction to things. I have become quite oily. If i ever skip showering for a day i am very oily. I have normally oily skin but it has no doubt increased. I just make sure to always shower twice daily and there is zero issue. I did miss a couple of days once and i was one oily mother...
 
The first shot after missing a dose the night before i had the facial flushing return. This was just shy of 2 weeks into it. It wasnt as severe as my very first dose but it was definitely there.
 
Other than the freckle and mole explosion the side effects have been minimal (that will sound strange to some of you no doubt :p). I have experienced more frequent random erections and my morning glory tends to last a bit longer than usual. My sex drive may be slightly higher than normal, but nothing worth writing home about. Other side effects are non existent.
 
Going great so far. Starting to wish i didnt have to jab myself, but starting to get comfortable with the process and its just becoming part of my routines.
 
Will get pictures up soon (anyone heard that from me before? :p)
 
Peace!

We have been using a bar fridge while waiting for our new fridge and i noticed this morning that the syringes i filled last night and put in the freezer compartment are not frozen. Shit.
 
How long will the syringes stay safe in this state? Bearing in mind i only used sterile water. They are cooler than the fridge, but are not frozen.
 
Seriously not happy!

So i took my second shot and have not noticed anything so far. I would put my dose for the night at 1.1-1.2mg. The two injections tonight and the one i had last night did not sting when going in and only the slightest sensation was felt afterwards. Nothing like my previous vial where every shot i felt a slight stinging sensation. I have been injecting only into my butt this vial, and while i did move toward injecting exclusively in that area my last vial, i still felt a degree of stinging upon injection. Either way, tomorrow night will be the last night for some time until i can get some bacteriostatic water. Being close to christmas and all im sure the world postal service is going to be working against me.
 
If anyone knows of a source within australia or a fast shipping international source for bacteriostatic water then please let me know.
 
Regards, Spor.

Overall i havent had much sun exposure, i had planned to start ramping that up around this time but no longer have any peptide. I will continue to expose and attain some color on the rest of my body from short amounts of sun every few days. I will leave my arms fully exposed at work as i never cover or use sunscreen on them.
 
Just looking over and editing my pictures now..
 
I'll start with my hands.

This photo was taken today. My hands and arms have had a couple of hours total per day of sun exposure since just after week 1. You can see a very obvious darkening of the freckles and a shift in the overall appearance of my skin. Dose was 0.4mg ED (two doses missed) until the end of November. I took a week off from dosing, then took 0.5mg and then around 1mg the following day. I havent taken any for a couple of days and no longer have any left.

I took this one outside as the ones from inside give the skin a red hue. I know my skin probably looks more tan in the original, but that's far from the reality. Again, sorry for the bad color. Check the frecks!

Day 7.

Ditto.
