Weight is staying steady. I’m at 186.1 today. That’s pretty much where I’ve been for 2 weeks. My body fat is down to 12% and my muscle definition and density are awesome. I have great vascularity too. I can see veins running up my lower abs, through my shoulders, chest and arms and I’m starting to get some thicker veins running through my quads. My body is convinced it’s on a cut apparently lol. Even after raising my calories I can’t budge my weight up. I’m sweating all day and all night and my work day has been a lot more stressful and faster paced recently as well. I’m wondering if those are contributing factors to all of this.

Looking back, I can see I’m actually down 4lbs in 2 weeks. I also forgot to mention that I upped my HGH to 3iu a day. I really need to take a closer look at my nutrition plan. I gotta take my calories up to about 3800 to 4000 calories because 36XX just isn’t doing it.

My wife was even laughing at me earlier. She said “I think your body is confused, It’s not time for a summer cut yet” freakin smart ass lmao. The wife is grocery shopping now and picking up more chicken for me. I’ll add an 8oz piece of chicken to my current nutrition plan daily. That’s a start anyway.

@Ironside @MBTJR1980 makes a very good point. I agree with him. When I need to up my calories I increase an energy source. Think about it.

See I thought about that but I was concerned about where my carbs were already. I’m currently taking in 377g of carbs. (Only 93g fat though. ) I start to have stomach issues past 400g of carbs and I hate taking extras like digestive enzymes and pepto to deal with my carbs when they are that high.

I have these same issues me and carbs don’t get along but maybe the carbs you are using are just not the right carbs?
I have had to adjust the type of carbs before.
Im not sure what your exact diet is but just thought something that I could throw out and maybe it would stick lol

Consider leafy greens. Steamed spinach is an easy way to get a pretty good amount and an excellent source of fiber. Adding a tablespoon of avocado oil will add 125 cals to the spinach.
You know what you can and can’t do brother. Just adding some ideas to the mix.

Your fats should be around 30% of your caloric intake bro 93g is low add to them. They are called essential fatty acids for a reason. Your body cannot produce them on its own and needs them to function properly. Plus itll actually help your body burn more fat and stay leaner.
