Chicken breast wrapped in bacon it the smaller round one. And the others are bacon wrapped pickles.
The tin is shrimp in blackened seasoning with cheese and butter.

And yours sounds good as well.

Oh I’m getting fat, lol.

Do one.
You don’t have to post every day, actually no one looks after a while if you do, lol.
Just do updates and pictures.
Could be informative.

I also like when people talk about when they actually cheat, or whatnot.

That is why when I list what I eat, or do, sometimes it’s not “true bodybuilding lifestyle”
But it’s how I roll, lol.

Hey @Oldguyjiujitsu you mentioned daily Cialis to be artery protective. Could you explain a little further and if there is some literature stating as such, posting? I couldn’t find much info beyond the obvious.

I’ve heard the same thing as well, but Old juju likely has a study.
Something about nitric oxide production and the relaxation of artery walls, blah, blah, lol.
I really wish I didn’t get the breathing issues and the heartburn.

Stan texted me this link. He trusts Dr Gil. It covers all the benefits of 5mg daily. Stan also recommended i try to get the compounded version...I got a TRT Dr appoint in 3 weeks so i will ask for it then and update

Read on, and you’ll see it’s approvals for what it does.
I only looked it up because I thought it was developed at first for prostate enlargement, not heart issues.

Tadalafil - Wikipedia

I’m going to try eod with the cialis. Like 10 mg.
I’m hoping I won’t get heartburn then

With 5 mg a day after about 4 dats it’s like an eruption of burn in my throat after 2 pm. Like bad and I normally never get heartburn.

But if I take 10 mg once a week, I’m fine. So I’ll try eod. Or maybe even 5 mg eod. Something is likely better than nothing.

Last time I took 5 mg daily was when I was on tren, and thought it was the tren giving me heartburn.
And yes, I took cialis when I was on tren, lol, fuck.
 
OK behind @Sorbate again...nothing too significant to update

  • Still growing a little, weight up to 190 from 188.
  • Diet is clean but not restricting anything...macros consistent at 45% carbs, 30%fat and 24% protein.
  • Body holding up...lower back is a little angry but that is normal. (been deadlifting, front squatting and barbell rows)
  • Still on TRT dosage 100mg until after BW with TRT doctor next week.
Sorbate put up pic of his t-rex arms so here is mine....I am long and lanky athlete so arms are worst body part but happy with proportions.

Looking good dude.
I took my post down, I woke the next morning and it didn’t feel right.
Plus I promised no pics until my bulk was done.
Fucking deca, lol, I get emotional. Was getting laid today and my dick started to go soft like 1/2 way thru. Lol I should know better.

It’s been 5 weeks now, so I can tell it’s starting to peek. I’m getting odd pimples in weird places. Strength is coming on now as well. Doing overhand bent rows with 245 for 7 today.
 
So I have a varicose vein on the front of my right calve. It’s been there for 3 years but is now getting bigger and spreading, so I need to get it taken care of.

So now it’s back down to trt. Once it’s repaired since it’s large, no training for a month, no leg training for a couple months from what I can tell. Then there is no guarantee it will be gone for good, I guess weight training can increase the chances of reoccurrences.

You know I’m never going to be able to fucking train to see where I can get.

It’s like a broken record, the whole reason why I stopped way back when I was 26. Then it was work that consumed my life and killed my training.

Now it’s every little fucking health issue my body can dream up.

Anyhow I’ll keep training until they do the procedure likely in a month, but I’m back on trt so say good by to the real gains.

I guess I can still get ripped for the summer, just smaller, likely sane size as last time.

So it’s still on, but fuck who knows where I’ll end up, because my plan is fucked.

That’s a bummer sorry to hear that I hope you can get fixed up quickly brother! Another member on here suggested a product called Serrapeptase for scar tissue removal but as I looked up reviews on different websites on the product it seems to have many many benefits varicose veins disappearing was on of the reviews that I read. A woman had bought it for her for different reasons but after a short time I guess it healed her veins. Apparently you can’t take it if you are on blood thinners already but I think that’s really the only restriction. Anyway thought it was worth mentioning if you have a month until your appointment might be worth a shot before you get any surgery or anything. Take care brother hope everything works out for you

That is strange it fixed her veins.
See you get varicose veins from either reflux from a bigger vein that is higher (valve is broken so gravity pools the blood in lower areas), or the vein itself is damaged.

I’m hoping it’s not the first one.

If it is, I’ll need tp get sent to a specialist in hopes to get it fixed thru Ohio, because if I don’t its $3500 without Ohip coverage. Even then unless it’s a serious condition Ohip may not cover it anyways.
Yeah our free healthcare is, fix you so you don’t die, healthcare. But no approval for anything proactive.

If it’s just the vein then $680 a treatment and hopefully I only need 1 or 2.
I’ll need a medical grade compression sock that goes right to my hip, and I’ll need to be careful to allow the vein to collapse and close off. If I am not careful it will not heal closed and I’ll be at square one.

At least it’s not life threatening. It’s just getting bigger, spreading more and starting to hurt.

Apparently it’s supposed to clean your blood and arteries of plaque and helps you metabolize scar tissue. It also prevents you from creating too much mucus in your sinus. From what I read a lot of people with chronic breathing problems symptoms almost gone after using it. I’m not sure exactly how it works I just started taking it yesterday to give it a try but apparently in the review I red her veins in her feet disappeared or improved greatly after a short time taking it. I personally was interested in the scar tissue removal and artery health.... I agree our health system blows unless you are dying it’s like pulling teeth. Pretty much why I never go to a doctor pointless most the time. Good luck man hope you get it taken care of and doesn’t break the bank!
 
Ok, I’ve calmed down now. I was a bit pissed.
It just seems like every time I get things rolling...
Anyhow, I bought some heavy duty compression socks, I’ll keep pounding the weights.
In the mean time I’ll swap my cycle to just test prop. That way I’m ready to just drop it a couple weeks before surgery and be at normal test levels. Don’t want to get blood clots or screw up the healing of the veins. Knowing my luck if I was geared out the fucking vein would grow back normal, lol. I’ll run a moderate dose like 300 mg to be safe.

I was just more pissed because everything was going so well, right on track to where it should be in my mind.

I guess it will just be test only now.

Btw, varicose veins ache and hurt. Especially now that it’s gotten bigger.

Getting a referral hopefully tonight to the vascuLar surgeon in Kingston. Let’s hope OHIP pays for it. I did a quick calculation by going the private way, it will likely be just under 8 grand depending on what the ultrasound says.

I hear you brother… That’s the joys of being our age. I just got my blood work emailed over to me...the stuff that was supposed to be an issue is not an issue But they found something else that might be an issue LOL

At least we will be on a level playing field I’m still on just test. I will add the Primo in in a couple weeks.

Interesting note. On 100 mg my free test is ALWAYS in the 550 range. And this blood work it was flagged at “over range” 766. And I’ve taken nothing extra for months

Hey, you are cheating hiring a coach, lol.
What brand cialis is are you taking that you don’t get heartburn from. I get brutal heartburn from Cialis, but loved taking 5 mg a day. Dropped my blood pressure as well when I was running tren.

I dint really have an update.
I started at 178 pounds at the start of January, I am now 190 steady. I’m hoping I will be over 200 lbs by end of April before I cut.

Still running 500 mg of test e a week and 170 mg of deca a week.
I think I may start gh again now that my nerve isn’t compressed anymore and my thumb isn’t numb, only 2 iu a day, but not sure about that.

Started to take digestive enzymes so I could process all the food I’m eating.
Pretty much my approach will be if I don’t gain weight one week, I’ll eat more, lol.

I’m not sure we both have the same goals, I thought getting as fat and big as possible was the goal, lol.

Oh and now I have to run tren, god damn using Stan, mumble, mumble, bitch, bitch,”””

Oh and my wife is helping me out with the fat diet, there was 50 cookies on Tuesday, (sry I was just corrected, it was Wednesday, not Tuesday my wife says). Not sure what happened?
