    Getting Gyno removed & cant lift for 1 month

    As my title states tomorrow i will be getting my gyno removed....cant wait......bad news is my Doc is telling me no lifting for a month NOT even cardio. I dont see why no cardio but thats why im not a doctor.

    Question: How should i eat during my time off?

    What i think i should do: Since i def wont be growing i dont need to eat like i was when i was growing so i will just eat heathly when ever im hungry....no more "oh shit its been past 2.5 hrs gotta eat" ....firgure that would keep my fat down as well as minimizng muscle loss.........Sounds good?............Thanks in advanced for the replies

    When I injured my shoulder and was out of the gym for a couple months, I kept my diet similar to what I was on while gaining weight. I lost minimal weight. If you start dropping calories and you don't work out, the muscle can come off ... very easily if you're a hardgainer like me. Eat a good, strict high protein diet to minimize muscle loss. I'd rather gain a little fat that I can easily shed rather than lose muscle. Just my 2 cents.

    i agree with want2bulk, I would say you can be a bit more flexible make it between 2 - 3.5 hours ***eding when your hungry. Dont forget the two of the main reasons for doing this is to keep your muscles fed with protein and therefore keeping you ainti catabolic but also keeping your matabolism up which is deff want you want if you cant even do cardio. I would say put your cals as maintenace level and you can always adjust if you start to notice any undesired effects like getting a little too fat.... its always good to keep in the routeen of eating because when you do come back you can up your cals in each meal and off you go.

    not a terrible case like some of the pics that you can google but to me it look like my nipples came out to a slight point like a triangle and it bothered the shit out of me..they had that puffy look to them too and i def had sum breast tissue.......prob didnt need it as my girlfriend said but today at my follow up appt when they took the bandages off even with my chest all swollen it looked flatter and more firm.....can wait for the final results
