    Ain't it,


    Life changing, to say the least


    Back in the day(being 8 years ago), I never thought I could look like this - at the same time, I didn't know the price to do so

    Looking back at something like that puts things in perspective doesn't it? Makes all the pain and effort and discipline worth while.

    Only thing left to say is Well Done!

    Thats damn impressive work. Looking back I know there is no way I could ever go back to what I was. I think I would rather die. Betting you feel the same way.

    Much respect.

    I complain a lot about gas bloating and tbe like but fact is it is gluten. The more I eat the worse it is.

    Low dose deca helps control it. As best I can tell the anti inflammatory properties keep the swelling down in the small intestine allowing better digestion.

    Its ourageous if I eat pasta without deca.

    Pasta is my go to. Some days it agrees some days it doesn’t. What are you going to do? I haven’t felt normal in years. Guess what I’m not normal. Pain isn’t just defined in muscle ache. Pain is many different aspects in my life. Muscle is one of many.

    ^ Very well said


    I watch for gluten & lactose and rarely have either - gluten filled pasta actually seems to settle well when I do have it - although I am on Deca now



    It's the years of booze & dope(no need to sugar coat shit). . . . But, just now I am starting to get to my "normal" self, but with a semi modified diet(and no booze

    Lol brother. Booze still comes into play more than I’d like. But the coke and x are in the rear view mirror now. It’s been so long on something aas now I’d don’t remember what normal is. But I never wanted to be normal so I guess Its the long term plan at this point.

    I have alot of stomach issues, and tren really makes it worse. I had severe reflux for over 20 years, and quit smoking, dipping and everyday drinking last june. Quitting those, and eating better helped alot, but I think the damage is done.

    It will be if you dont get it fixed. My grandmother let it go too long and has to sleep sitting up. She still wakes up gagging/drowning on acid.

    Well, I didn't really want to say - but, yeah


    After close to 5 years of a gram a day coke habit - my, guts started to have no more. . . This was about 3 years ago. . . I got to a point where I seriously couldn't do any more. . . I'd do the slightest amount and wind up in the shitter for 4+ hours.

    Of course this was all on top of my usual half dozen a night shot habit.


    Good times - not
