Takes some people 6-8 weeks for the test to kick in, I would just wait it out man. If your off the D then you are probaly loosing the water weight now. Whats your protein intake look like?

350-400gm min every day. All food, no shakes unless post work out.

most are happy they don't look like a koala after the dbol it sounds to me like you are spot on with a lean diet and not retaining much water.. just watch for a slow down which would indicate some bunk test...

but, if the gains are still strong i say ENjOY!

Yeah I was worried about this but fireguy just called me out on my diet in the diet section so I had to do some math and it turns out I'm only taking in about 3600 cals. (edit see below I actually was taking in close to 4500 cals) This is still a lot more food then I'm used to but figured I should still be gaining. I'll see what my lifts are like next week. If they begin to fall off I may have to drop the sust and start on my test 250. I hope that'll work even though I would have a hell of a yoyo effect there.

You may be dropping bf while putting on lean muscle gains. if you are getting stronger I personally would not worry. try increasing your calories.

I hope this is the case. I will check bf% on Monday and report back. I'm also going to up my cals via natty peanut butter and some less lean ground beef. I already take suppliments for all EFAs.

Ditto what cobra305. You sound good man, give it a few more weeks and see where your at.

I thought so! I actually am eating around 4500! This is basically what I eat except I sub london broil for pork chop (don't usually eat pork) and sometimes yogurt instead of banana. Things like that but for the most part it doesnt very too much.
