I appreciate the encouragement! It means a lot. I also want to say to all of the guys that I appreciate your input and thoughts. It's hard but I will achieve my goals. I've been spending a lot of time in the diet and nutrition forums and realize now more than ever how much diet play the most important role. I just have to figure out how to put my diet together quickly and get with it. I will be posting pictures along the way. Thanks again.

Thanks TRT. I have got to get a diet down and implement it now!

**Big** · 08-17-2010, 11:28 AM

Yes, Let me ask you. I've spent quite a bit time on the diet forums and wanted to know how many calories I would need to cut or shred my fat **s.lol
I did the BMI and it equaled 30.5
My BMR is 2110
The Harris Benedict formula said I needed 3270 daily calories, I'm assuming to stay where I'm at.
The questions are: Should I be around 1996 or 2000 calories to start cutting and will the PCT which I start in 11 days affect my diet or make it harder to eat, or will it help my appetite? Thanks.

you bf% is just slightly more than mine. I was told mine is between 20-24 so the 25 ish sounds right. I doubt that's 30.

I started out around 30% and your not near what I looked like six months ago. Keep reading, working out, and hone in your diet and the fat will start to fall off. My diet is so much better since I have studied on here. Post your diet up and you will get some tips. I posted mine and was able to see what I was missing of adding that I should not eat. Good free info from knowledgeable folks.

I'm assuming with my diet I will loose some size as well as water bloat and fat. The question is if I change my diet now and start PCT as scheduled, should my training stay the same and will there be a difference in the way I feel? as far as PCT. Anything I should look out for?

you never stop learning in this game, esp when you start to chemically enhance yourself. ive been training for 18 odd years now and i still learn new tweaks on my training and diet etc, from ppl on here. stick around on here. ask quests, there are some very experienced/knowledgable guys on here, more than willing to help you out.

BMI is a crock of crap, it doesnt take in consideration the weight of muscle mass in trained individuals, im morbidy obese according to it!!

Same here! I don't think I'm morbidly obese. I know I've some weight to cut though.

Well, I have been working very hard on my diet. I have lost 11 pounds and obviously some size. I now weigh 214, down from 225. I have continued my pct and I'm almost into the third week. I dropped 3 inches in my waist and would say that I'm down to 18-20% BF. Honestly I lost most of the size I gained on the deca cycle.

The good news is that I have learned so much here, it has prepared me for the next cycle. I figured 2 weeks after pct, which will be in 5 weeks, I'll get my blood work done and establish my baseline numbers. I will evaluate at that time as to when I should start to think about another cycle. I'll post some pics in a few days.
