Test Cyp. 1st Cycle Questions

First off, I want to thank you guys for the help i know i'm bound to receive here. I've done a fair bit of searching through this section of the forum, and have been pretty impressed with the solid answers I've seen. However, I haven't exactly found what i was looking for, and i could use some help on a few particular topics.

I've been doing my research on a test cyp. / deca cycle for about 4 months now, and finally went through and picked up everything i needed about a month ago.

Now I'm well aware that Test C. is a slow acting ester, and visible results aren't usually noticeable until weeks 4-6, but after a month of running 450mg of test and kick starting it with 300mg of deca a week, I can honestly say i don't feel much stronger. I have only gained about 8lbs to date, and im sure that's water weight and maybe a couple pounds of fat due to the fact i've been practically shoveling good clean carbs, protein, and fats down.

I'm doing this by the book, but I am having my doubts. I'm not much stronger, i'm not any more aggressive, no acne, no test flu at all when i started. I had a week in there where my libido went crazy, and now it's seemed to have simmered down. My nuts have definitely shrunk, and my chest is puffy, but honestly that's all i've really gotten out of this so far.

Has anybody had any similar experiences? I got the gear from a reliable guy that goes to my gym. I work with his wife, and we all are on pretty good terms. It was his own personal stuff that he had on hand, all still brand new and sealed up, so im sure the gear isnt bunk. Im just frustrated because I've put a lot of effort into making sure that i'm doing this right, and I'd hate to think something went wrong somewhere. Am I expecting too much too soon? I know it takes time, but DAMN. I'd greatly appreciate any help or personal opinions on whats going on here.

Sounds good!
As you 4-6wks and sometimes 7 for true results...you're apparently on the upper limit of that range. Keep at it and post again in a couple of weeks.

P.S. Structurallly speaking, Deca is not a jump start compound.
