    I think stopping the cycle and resting is a better plan in fact. In all seriousness...

    Give your body a break.

    I will take a break from aas, but ready to workout now. I will ask doc when I can start back working out. I really don't think gear has anything to do with this

    Just talked to vascular doc, he said no big deal, gonna send me home with oral thinners. He don't think aas had much to do with it, probably caused by by gallbladder surgery.

    Thank you! I invested 3 minutes watching a YouTube video. Posing ain't rocket science and it ain't magic. Check YouTube if you think it'll help. I thought it was worth it - if for nothing else, to give me confidence I wasn't doing it all wrong. Best wishes!

    All competitors get a PM with a link to a YouTube video for each pose so probably if that's the video you used. Sure you haven't been posing for longer than that? Lol!

    No idea on calories. I eat less on low days and more on high days.

    Low days started off as
    700g chicken
    250g cooked rice
    6 eggs
    2 tins of tuna

    This turned into me substituting eggs or some chicken with beef burgers sometimes however.
    I drink lots of tea on these days

    High days
    I eat as much carbs as i can stomach with lots of protein on high days. I enjoy myself with lots of tomato sauce and stuff on food.

    This is the lowest I've weighed in 25 years, and I'm still pissing out iv fuids I'm sure. I got fourth in last comp by getting off cycle and dieting to lose fat, couldn't workout. I will probably drop a significant amount a weight coming off again, except this time I can workout. I will spend rest of this comp concentrating on fat loss, and trying not to lose muscle. Will continue to work legs hard, should be able to grow them natural since they are so small and not worked in a long time. Don't count me out, I'm gonna finish strong!!!

    I've had a lot trouble lately trying to put on muscle, I've never had that problem. Thinking this blood clot restricting blood flow from liver may have something to do with it, been real low energy last co couple months too. I read up on it and said it can cause weight loss

    Would this have been detected in bw?

    I don't think so. Although cycling didn't cause this, my liver is probably stressed from the restricted blood flow, so I wont cycle again for a while

    I was sort of thinking that maybe the rest of us can learn something from this. If bw could have detected an issue in the liver, then it reenforxes to get bw.
    I am usually good at getting bw however I haven’t had it in awhile.

    It was actually blocking the blood leaving the liver, not going to like I thought at first. All my blood work looked good

    Liver enzymes may be slightly elevated from it, but guys like us would dismiss as hard training can do the same. It requires a liver doppler ultrasound... and a very well trained technician, for an early diagnosis.

    Risotto? Not much protein in there.

    BTW it seems I just need some reminder to take my T4, looked at my day backward and realized I missed it this morning. I still have to increase dosage according to last labs (one month ago...).

    Yup! That was it. Great video.
    Now I'm thinking if I'm good at posing maybe I *should* compete someday.
