    Sounds as if you already know the answer to this. Of course getting on steroids wont help! You need to fix your diet.

    Post up everything that you eat,including macronutrients. Your problem lies in the diet...TOP

    actually smoking slows your metabolism, which is good but it will also kill you, no good!!!

    Top will get you all taken care of with good diet, get ready to eat like a pig...man do i miss those days...

    Cool Imho

    I work in health food and the number one problem we get is people coming in the shop with is either Breathing or weight problem not being able to put it on. The first thing we tell them is to stop drinking MILK 90% of the time that is the cause. The reason for this is up to 70% of our population can not digest it correctly.

    Smoking cigarettes raises ones metabolism, it doesnt lower it. This is due to the nicotine and one of the reasons people tend to gain weight when they stop. Also, I cant think of one good reason (other than a hunger strike) why you would ever want to slow your metabolism down.

    First of all your diet is horrible.

    Second smoking is not good for any reason at all, but obvouisly you already know that.

    Third i dont see how slowing the metabolism can be good for anyone, even if you cant put on weight.....

    cause once the metabolism slows down all you are really going put on is shit weight and fat, not quality weight and muscle mass which we are all going for and want to achieve...

    Did you watch the videos and learn anything. Once you have seen them you will be able to better write a diet,then allow us to critique it.

    And dont worry about the drama queen in the thread i have a feeling he is about to be banned.

    Well in the meantime you need to go grocery shopping.

    Chicken
    beef
    steak
    fish
    oatmeal
    brown ice
    fish oil
    natural peanut butter
    Veggies
    sweet potatoes

    These are some very common things we all use,almost everyday. TOP

You should be eating every 2-3 hours,so 5-7 meals a day
    Also you need to find your TDEE and BMR this will give you an estimational point to start your daily calories at. You cant just guess and lose weight! You need to track your cals for an optimal diet.

    Also sorry for all the drama back and forth,there is a story behind it,that im sure everyone else knows!!...

    Good luck....TOP
