steroids are not a cheap hobby!

**tommik** · 05-30-2007, 03:47 AM

It's my first, 12 week long, cycle of deca + test e/p. I wanted to do everything right so that I went only for the quality pharmaceutical grade gear and pct stuff. I cut down my social life, weekend traveling, on cloths... and it's still freaking difficult

if I add on top of that money I spend on the protein shakes, weight gainers and a gym membership... well i don't even want think about it

do I regret? NO, I'm half way through the cycle and already 25lbs heavier!

**WEBB** · 05-30-2007, 07:55 AM

try doing it for 6-7 years as hard as you are or harder...then you need to buy clothes every cycle cause nothing fit, 200 a week on food for a joke....it aint going to get any cheaper bro...trust me

**scaramouche** · 05-30-2007, 08:18 AM

**WEBB** · 05-30-2007, 09:06 AM

i am 300 and look like a pimp...

**Giants11** · 05-30-2007, 09:14 AM

Just wait till you start throwing things like Primo in there....LOL

I feel you brother, it ain't cheap but changing your entire body has to be one of if not the most rewarding things in life. God I love being ripped with veins popping out of my forearms......

don't all surveys' with women show they prefer a more cut and smaller guy.. and you are well on your way..

yes they are intimidated by the real body builders, but they also don't like the lack of attention that 300 lb builders can't give them..

plus.. most are fat, and they don't like to have bow legs..

**collar** · 05-30-2007, 09:23 PM

ha, ummm in aus, its three times the price if not more.
i think..

And this is just the beginning. Welcome to the club.

Bro if i told u how much money im spending on this short little cutting u would freak, and i am basically saving every pennie i get for the real one this winter. MAN i need to win the friggen lotto or something this is getting redunkulis. This sure isnt a cheap hobby.

**K.Biz** · 05-31-2007, 05:02 AM

Im saving for my first 'real' cycle, which will prob be run in about 10 months. I dont even wanna think about the money

**tommik** · 05-31-2007, 05:30 AM

I actually ran out of excuses for the "where does all your money go?"... everybody thinks i turned into stingy retard

**Kale** · 05-31-2007, 05:49 AM

Unless you can buy it all over the counter in Bangkok, then its cheap

**king6** · 05-31-2007, 05:54 AM

Food doesn't have to be expensive. Us poor college students have to be able to get food cheap. Buy in bulk, sam's and costco are good. You can get food for a cycle for 200 a month. I cut back on going out alot. Plus you don't spend money on booze.

Collecting stamps is a hobby. Building models is a hobby. Finding rare comics is a hobby.

Using the sauce in pursuit of becoming a beast is a LIFESTYLE!!!!

WTF...you calling me fat...LOL

I agree 110% with what your saying, when i was smaller i found the attention i got from girls was completely different than it is now.... now i dont get any which is fine cause i have a girl and i dont want it, but now i get looks like what a freak and when i was 220-240 i got way more attention and girls tat would flirt....it is true, 90% of girls out there dont like BB's, good thing my girls does or i would be in trouble...

Oh so true. My wife looked at me last night and told me how much she hates chicken now. That is the lifestyle baby, good eatin and workouts. The sauce is the bonus I will give myself for keeping up the hard work.
