never coming back

[wraithgs]

yea bro it will get better...stay positive, I will say this and hopefully it will cheer up your mood on things....Muscle memory! dude you will get back to 170 way easier than before after all the health issues completely clear up and you can get your diet back you will be back in the game in no time dude....actually, after taking a long break like what you are pretty much forced on till this point is helpful in the long run....ive hit plateaus at 225lbs...and ate and ate and trained and trained, could never get over it man...then i actually gave up said fuck the diet and fuck it all...I went off my diet and training for 1 month and lost down to 215 and actually gained a lil fat....well i got back in the game and over passed my plateau!! same diet and training as before.....i asked a couple of old school bodybuilders in the gym ( and i meen two of them almost had there pro card) they said that taking a complete break shocks your body and makes you over pass plateus after you start your routine bak...so keep your head up bro!!

Thanks for the kind words.

i have decided to go back to the gym as of next week, even though i wont be eating a lot and i probably wont grow or recover as quick, it will be still better than doing nothing and at lease my body will be in a better fighting condition than it will be if I hang on until my insides are better for eating.

At least something will happen.

Hey Bro, "wraithgs" stole my thunder but he is right on, muscle memory is the key, you should bounce back without much of a problem, it will take some time of course but it will be much easier to get that 20lbs back than it woud have been to gain 20lbs and move up to 190 from 170.

When you do feel your healthy enough, EQ is a good choice for gear since a lot of guys say it stimulates their appetite. I know you're not ready for that now but for future consideration perhaps.

Andy,you did it once,you can do it again.No need for anabolics bro,you know better.I was sick and on chemo and dropped to 129 lbs bro..I just about laid down and died.Good lifting partners picked me up and you should see me today 60 lbs heavier.Add 200 extra cals to your diet every 2-3 days and you will be eating large again in no time.

dude dont ever give up...I know I feel like to do the same.... plus your a real help here

Thanks karch and im glad I can be of some service and good info Dennis bro.
Its just making that first step back into it i think, once Ive been back next week im sure ill be right again in no time and the rest will come back to me.

Im going to be stearing clear from the top half of this board from next week onwards and spending most if not all of it on the bottom half.

ill update in a few weeks when ive got back into the swing of it again.
