I ran a few cycles before eroids, never really knew what I was doing then, no research just pointers from someone I thought knew what he was doing. It's funny how when you start educating yourself on something that isn't heavily talked about how powerful that education is. I started my obsessive research on test back in 2010 a few years after I found out I had a natural test defiency. In 2011 I joined eroids and that became a game changer in my life. I had lived so many years under weight. At one point I was prescribed Androgel and it was incredible how fast just my libido increased. Androgel was working with my body just not my wallet. At $400 a pump bottle I must couldn't bring myself to pay that kind of money for a month cycle. Then I found eroids, I spent a few more weeks researching trt before I was ready to take the plunge. I was 127lbs when I started cycling, never in a million years would I have believed by 2015 I would be nearly 200 lbs of wishdanookawould. I started off with simple cycles, 250mg every week of test cyp. I see allot of post on here asking if 250mgs a week would be beneficial, my very first cycle I gained nearly 30lbs, I would say that beneficial. Now when I started I didn't start cycling to get big or too be some kind of body builder, I just wanted my sex drive back. But I figured since I was taking test, might as well get the full benefits from it. I hit the weight hard, my appetite started to increase and you would have thought every female I came in contact with was in heat because I was getting allot more attention!!! About the middle of 2013 I plateaued, I couldn't get past 165 and couldn't figure out why. I talked to trainers at my gym and they all talked me in circles of what I needed to do. Finally I talked to my Good friend here tread-m and he directed me to focus solely on my calorie intake. So I quit worrying about how much protein or how many carbs I should take in. By 2014 I had reached my dream goal of 190+ @ 197. I was a monster. Most people didn't recognize me. I lost my mom in 2014 and went thru a divorce that crippled my accomplishments. My wife had caused me to lose my job, my home and I was sleeping in my car for a good while. I spent all of 2015 and part of 2016 in county jail due to an argument my wife and I had in a public place. With no money for bail and a court system that doesn't care if sit or not I sat behind bars for a year of my life. Finally I went to court and my charges were dropped, I have cycled once since I got out due to not having money which I hope to soon change. I worked out the entire time I was locked up, I lost 30 lbs but I've never dropped below 150lbs . Right now I am sitting at 160lbs but I've got allot of work to do to get back to where I was. I am posting this because I've always been able to turn to my eroids family when there was no one else. I am remarried now although I'm still struggling the stress on my life is almost non existent compared to before. I'm looking forward to the time when I get to cycle again but most of all I'm glad to be back in the game.
