Hello, just a quick question.

[J_scrolls]

If those are the ranges your doctor gave you on free test then you are fine. Right in the middle. Why question that?

I have many reasons to question it, I wasnt diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis until I was 14, meaning doctors failed to see my symptoms and think to get me tested. Despite 95% of people getting diagnosed before the age of 3, it wasn't until I read an article in the newspaper that I decided to get tested and guess what I had it! There is a lot of great doctors out there, dont get me wrong, but there is also a lot of bad ones just like in any occupation.

My doctor who gave me the ranges is a lung specialist and a GP, not a endocrinologist. I've since read just because you're in the normal range doesnt mean its optimal and a lot of people benefit from being in the higher threshold. I read that on the sticky on this forum..


As for my routine, I started out at about 5"11, 145 and i've been bulking for a steady year with a few minor mishaps (went to hospital for my lungs, broke my hand). I workout 4 times a week and eat roughly 5-6 meals a day, this is my workout.

Monday: Chest/abs/calves
Tuesday: off
Wednesday: Back/bis
Thursdayff
Thursday: Shoulders/tris
Friday: off
Saturday: legs
Sunday: off

I'll give a sample of yesterdays diet:

8:30AM: 4 scrambled eggs (with yolk) with 3/4 cup of oats(uncooked measurment) and orange juice
11:00AM: 200g of tuna and a glass of milk
1AM: 350g of chicken with 2/3 cup of rice (uncooked)
3:30PM: 2 scoops of muscle milk with full cream milk
7:00PM: Chicken Parmigana (chicken with skin and ham/tomato paste and cheese) with brockerly and carrots
10:00PM: 2 slices of wholegrain bread with peanut butter and a glass of milk

I have almost the same stuff everday except my dinner will vary depending on what my mothers cooking, sometimes it will be steak, pasta, lamb etc.

After about a year with a few months MIA I'm at 170 pounds at around the same body fat (11%).. Cystic Fibrosis makes putting on fat almost impossible and its encouraged to eat a high fat diet. As I said, I dont want to be at an above natural level, I just want higher test as I want to see if my body benefits from it.
