Just thought I'd share something that happened to me recently that completely demotivated me.
So I've been cycling for a few years now. My most recent cycles have been just test/tren, which by the way are the most effective cycles for me. With test at trt dose of 100/mg per week and tren at 400-500mg week. Hardly any sides, great gains, great results overall. At 500mg of tren I start getting insomnia and hot flashes but its manageable so I keep my cycles between 400-500 depending on the gear I get.
Anyway, so after busting my ass at the gym, eating right and doing everything Im supposed to I manage to get to 246 solid pounds. Body fat was floating at around 11-12%. I was looking f*cking solid. So a little over a month ago I get this nasty throat infection. When I say nasty, I mean it was HORRIBLE. It felt like everytime I swallowed, I was swallowing nails. Doc thought I had strep so he put me on antibiotics. Antibiotics didnt do shit...wasnt strep. I went 8 straight days without eating one bite of food. Nature has its way of ****ing with you because even though you dont actually eat, your body still feeds itself on the hard earned muscle you gained at the gym. 8 days of not eating and I dropped damn near 20lbs of muscle and fat. The pain was so intense I could hardly even drink water. Even with the hydrocodone they prescribed me it still hurt like hell.
Day 9 I was finally able to put down a soup. It stayed like that for the next 7 days. So I went a total of 15 days, half of which I ate absolutely nothing and the other half I went eating soup and crackers. After those two weeks I was down to a measly 218 lbs. And I only say measly because Im comparing it to where I was at...246lbs. Huge change. Now I look look skinny, completely different than I did before. I look in the mirror and it devastates me knowing I lost over a years worth of work in a measly 15 days. No motivation to go to the gym so Im taking a break to deal with this. Unless youve gone through it, there are no words to explain the way I feel. It's a trip how everything can change in the blink of an eye. It sucks but I guess I'll figure it out. Only good thing that came out of this is now I think Im down to 6% bf lol... if not lower.
Just thought I share this with you guys. Not much I could have done to prevent it. Definite eye opener though.
