Suggestions for 2nd cycle

[swollix]

I finished my first real cycle about two months ago. (First cycle was fake gear, gained 2 lbs. in 12 weeks) I ran:
Test E 500MG per week, 8 weeks
Dianabol 25mg per day, 4 weeks
Arimidex .25mg per day, 8 weeks

PCT was standard Nolva and Clomid.

I gained 13 lbs. of which I kept 7-8.

Now I am planning my second cycle, and I am not sure what I should try. I was expecting more weight with this, but I guess the Arimidex did it's job and kept all the water off of me. Any suggestions? Higher doses of the same stuff, or what?

Stats:
23
5'11
177 lbs.
10% bodyfat
lifting 6 years+

You say your first cycle u gained 2lbs and then you say u gained 13lbs and kept 7-8lbs, which is it?

Even if you THINK it was fake its still to close in between cycles.

Time on + pct = time off

^he said his first cycle was fake, gained 2 lbs (through lifting and eating i imagine), then he said his first REAL cycle he gained 13 lbs. Seems clear to me.

You're still a little young, and there's no rule that says every cycle has to be more than the previous cycle. you could run the same cycle again. Probably a good idea to aggressively PCT and space your cycles out a little more, as Dr. Pepper suggests.

This is correct! As far as being young, I know I am but I tried to stay responsible and wait a while. If you look at my join date is was in 2007 when I was 19... I mostly just lurk on here. I don't have a problem spacing cycles out, it was 10 months between my first (fake) cycle and my last one. It's been 2 months since the last one, I am just planning. I was expecting more weight gain, that's why I was looking for suggestions. All my local buddies seem to gain a lot more. Here are some pics of what I look like:
