    am i gaining fat or is it just a water bloat on my face?

    i'm in a 3rd week of deca/test cycle and my face already looks fat! is round and everybody is pointing it to me which is very annoying... i don't mind water but if it is fat i'd be very disappointed... rest of my body looks very good, just the face... what do you guys think... fat or not fat? thanks

    bro, only you will be able to tell.. two things... one, if you gain weight in the face quickly due to your genetics it can be that... second, the face is the first place water retention shows... so if you are not gaining anywhere else, it is probably water retention.. or if your genetics are as such, it could be the begining of your fat gain??? so it is up to you to decide.

    In my genetics, I gain in my face right away... probably the first thing to show when I am gaining both weight and water bloat, it always shows in my face... if I eat a lot of sodium it will start to show in a puffy face....I hate it, but it is who I am.... the thing is, you have to decide where you fit in this. only you will know. I start watching other parts and go by that and feeling to decide which one it is.

    Would a small amount of letro help with something like this? Just curious. I'm going to be starting my first cycle very soon and was going to have some letro on hand just as a "C.Y.A." no matter what.

    ^^^Yes an AI would help and it is just the result of edema.

    If you get fat you will get fat everywhere not solely your face. Test and Deca are compounds that can lead to this, edema. It will go away as you enter PCT. Or as stated use an AI

    i wouldnt say he hijacked the thread, his question is still somewhat on topic.

    Back on topic:
    I often get bloat in my face when i run certain compounds, and it's always water. If it appears more in the face than other bodyparts, and if it appeared suddenly, you can bet it is water.

    thanks guys for all the input, i supposed to be running letro from the first day of my cycle, unfortunately dodgy supplier upset my applecart anyway, i've just ordered pharmaceutical grade letro from a trusted company and i hope it's only the water bloat... i'm so happy from the results so far but the round face..

    Didn't mean to piss anyone off. I thought I was on topic because of the "face bloat" factor. I apologize for butting in.

    i wouldn't be so sure about that... passing over a fact that i wasn't ready for a cycle yet i gained 30lbs, basically i've exploded, girls in the office made me even a badge 'fat face' i was lau***ng as I "knew" it's only water... I dropped in some letro in the middle of cycle, surprise... nothing changed much, still fat face.

    soon I realized that something is wrong, I looked closer into my diet and surprise2... i was too concerned about not eating enough that i was eating WAY too much.

    in the end i used remaining cycle time to get rid of excess fat.

    the thing is that some ppl store more fat in certain areas than others.. believe me or not but I start to look fat from 13%bf mark, only on the face tho.

    I wouldn't use letro, I'd use ameridex. And get that diet cleaned up.

    guys.. i started this thread over 3 months ago, someone brought it back earlier today. i already stated that it wasn't a water bloat, maybe some - 30%, the rest was fat.

    - can you somehow back up your theory?

    i dont think its a theory, lol. i really doubt you put fat on just your face alone. either you got really fat on cycle or your genetics suck. or both

    It's most likely bloat, it'll clear up with pct and off time. My last cycle was a pretty heavy prop and deca one and I gained 30 lbs the first month, mostly bloat. It went away. Test and deca are good for bloat.

    I always get face bloat pretty bad when on cycle. I am using Letro .25 mg EOD and I didn't get it this time. I stopped using it for a few days to see if it was actually doing anything and sure enough...pumpkin head was back but quickly went away after I took some more letro.
