So 13 weeks of Sustanon @ 500mg /week and the net result was only 5 lbs?
Not trying to knock you, I have never even cycled, but it just seems low.

Not a knock.
It would depend on your goal. My goal, as stated in my first post was to be 195 lbs at 10% BF. Well, I am at 195, but my body fat is higher than 10%. However, I am leaner than when I started and I really only started eating "big" the last few weeks because my weight was stable.
Not trying to get huge and don't want to get fat. At this point in my life I just want to look good (better than good) naked, while pushing my limits, just a tad.

So,didn't mention in last post that I had been experiencing some back/upper glute pain. Typical, I thought, no biggie just give it a couple days. Well end of last week it flared up big time. Inside of foot, side of knee numb. Pain in hip/back so bad that I could not sleep or get comfortable. Up there with my ACL tears and reconstructions on the pain scale. Don't know how I hurt myself? Guess I have a pinched nerve (sciatic) or some shit. Got on some anti inflamitories after an injectionof the same. Very reluctant to take meds, but was desperate.
Feeling some what better now.
The real shit is that I missed a full week of lifting and my apetite fell off. Lost 5 lbs and down to 187. Left quad has already atrophied.
Starting back at gym on an easy rotation, so hope to be done with this set back.

So, have 4 more days of clomid.
Back/nerve issue has really been slow in going away. Quads (mostly left) have decreased muscle a bunch. Weight is down to 185, so -10 lbs. Feeling and looking leaner more defined, but I bet a good portion of that weight is from legs.
Also, don't know if it's the clomid or the injury, but I have been in the dumps lately. Will power on and get through the last 4 days of clomid and then I have a fishing trip coming up, so that should put me in a better mood.
Have been fighting the urge to open the safe and start my next cycle...but I won't!

This will be my final reportonthis thread.
Did Clomid 50/50/50/50
Took last dose of clomid yesterday. Glad and hope downer mood will go away.
Think that recovery is good. Nuts back to normal size, AM wood is normal. Funny, never had any extreme sex drive swings high or low during any phase of cycle.
I have leaned down to 183 as of this AM, so down from 195+, but this is mostly on purpose (summer) and patially because of back/nerve issue causing leg muscle loss.
Strength(other than legs) is only slightly down and abs are showing which is always nice in summer.
Next cycle will be Test E, Deca all by Pinn. Likely will start it with less than the reccommened time between cycles. Going on a cruise in December and want to be done with pins before it.
Thanks for reading, advice and comments!
