yeah, I'm back. Thanks guys. I think what happened is I was answering a question in this thread about Free T vs Bioavailable T and I quoted my doctor's website, and then provided a link to it. After hitting submit, it said the post was not approved and would need to be by a moderator. I acknowledged this in a post on page 2:
"Weird. I replied to you but it says waiting for moderation. Maybe because I posted two links to his website. I wouldn't be surprised if that sort of thing is banned here. Anyhow, he thinks Free T is useless. Bioavailable T is better. But I'll be testing Total T and estradiol in 2 months."
I'm pretty sure that somehow got me banned. Anyways, glad to be back!
As I stated in my latest youtube videos, I won't be making videos as often now. The next update will probably be in 2 months when I get a wide range of things tested. Right now I feel pretty good. Actually I feel amazing but I can't attribute it all to the increase in testosterone. I've also switched to a paleo diet, which is eating meat, fish, veggies, nuts, and fruit. Nothing processed, no grains, no sugar, no salt, no dairy. I've had oily skin all my life and it has stopped completely. The weirdest thing is my hands. I shook my buddy's hand yesterday and he was like, dude, why are your hands so smooth? I didn't realize at the time, but the oil on my hands is completely gone. I used to have to wipe down my iphone screen about once a day because there would be fingerprints and smudges, now there is nothing. This is so fucking weird. And I've been eating paleo for 3 days now. So very cool, and I will update on how that is going using my youtube channel.
Oh, the reason I switched to a paleo diet... I've told a few guys that I've been talking to on youtube that as of my follow-up appointment, I was going to start being more responsible with my life and trying to live the best I could. So along with overhauling my diet, which was pretty clean before (no pop, no junk food, no candy, high protein), I've also set myself on fixing my sleep patterns (sticking to a 10pm bedtime and 630 wakeup time, along with blacking out my room and not using a computer or bright lighting for an hour or two before bed), and focusing energy on changing some of my negative beliefs. I'm not using any sort of system or self-help book to do that, just meditating on who I've become and why I have a lot of negative beliefs, and then acting the opposite way, or whatever the positive/empowering belief would direct me to act. Basically, I'm living more consciously. I'll update in regards to all of this, plus the testosterone and hormone levels, on my youtube channel. And I may not continue to post on this thread, but I am subscribed and get an email whenever someone replies here, so I'll be back to reply if anyone has questions or comments.
Lastly, thanks everyone on here who has made this place what it is. In a short time, I have learned a so much about testosterone and everything related to it. There are some great people here that are very knowledgeable, and the fact that you guys stick around to help all the new guys is commendable. Thanks again guys!
