Title: Ghrelin is the hunger hormone
Post by: bhank on June 19, 2022, 02:48:10 AM
This will put more weight on you than anything else as clearly eating is your issue. Ghrelin is the hunger hormone this stuff stimulates it's production and will have you hungry eating twice as much. Personally no I do not take it but I tried it once years ago in my 20s and it absolutely it will make you gorge yourself

If I had to guess, I'd just take it and sit around starving.

I'm literally trained not to eat at this point.

But I'll look into it [it won't work].

Hard training + juice ought to increase your appetite just fine

force feeding is likely counter productive.  that tired feeling after you eat a huge meal is your body diverting resources to your GI tract to process the excess of food

MK-677 absolutely works for hunger and putting on some water-weight. I couldnt make it a week though when I tried MK-677, the lethargy was brutal.
Struggling all day long to stay awake is a horrific feeling. Not everyone gets those sides though...

For the week I took it, I ate all day long, I couldnt feel full, it was weird...

same.  Phil hernon had a pretty good approach to this, he would have you eat meals of around ~500kcal whenever hungry.  training, cardio, drugs were used to stimulate appetite.  Carbs were mostly from fruit, to promote quick & easy digestion.

which also brings up another point: clean-ish foods are easier to eat than junk food.  burger + fries + milkshake will have me stuffed for half the day.  fruit + whey + nut butter will have me hungry in a couple hours

Same... if I eat McDonalds or similar at 11 AM, that is basically it for the day until evening where Ill have an apple and a yogurt. (Crap just sits like lead).
Chicken, rice, vege's I can easily eat every 3 hours no problem... Body burns it up easily...

I can't eat worth shit.

If I smoke vile THC, I just sit around starving, then end up 3-lb lighter a few hours later.

THC makes me feel starving. And I still won't even look at food.

I've trained myself not to eat. it's not happening.

Going on two weeks into this cycle [though I've only had one 250mg Sustanon shot yet].

Quitting in two weeks if those calories don't double.

Dont quit the cycle Matt, you'll still get a little something out of it.
But try the daily shake (blender-full) thru-out the day, it will help..

Wtf Matt, just eat. Just do 1200 calories for a couple days then 1500 then 1800 and stay there. Any surplus of calories over what you normally eat will result in size as you maintain off whatever you said you take in 8-900 calories. Stop overthinking it just be. Add a pbj sandwich and glass of milk and there is an extra 600-800 calories and it’s just a sandwich and a drink.

A healthy adult will have a strong appetite. 3000 cals a day should be no problem. The only time my appetite cut in half or worse was when I was lifting my heaviest reps 1-3, doing heavy static holds, or literally sick.  Cut the weights dramatically, go for pump to failure, add plenty of reps and sets, move the weigh in a slow controlled manner and see how fast your appetite jumps. Stuffing yourself is very unhealthy and you'll feel like crap.

Nothing beats it, and MK-77 for appetite. For whatever reason many refuse to try it, instead talking about progesterones for HIV or whatever. GHRP-6 is safer, MK may be too effective

The appetite boost is why it will never hit the market. Seriously. They don't have a problem with secretagogues per ae, like Sermorelim.

Wasn't there some type of supplement that came out 15 years ago or so, that was supposed to increase appetite? It came in a silver and black box by Xero Nutrition (or something to that effect).

Edit - AHHH!! Found it!! It was called "Engorge" by Xero Limits. They also had a weight gainer called "H.U.G.E. (Human Underground Growth Experiment) MASS" .

I haven’t done test in years, but those first 3-4 weeks can be uneventful unless you’re starting with some d-bol.

Water weight though can be something to watch in that time.

Test when it kicks in is an underrated sort of street drug in the way it makes you feel happier overall.

Coming off can be brutal though.

I have one friend who used to have a big blow out fights with his slut GF whenever he would come off.

Thanks for the advice guys.

I do maintain the physique seen in this photo off around 1,000 calories a day. I'm 170-lb, in pretty good "everyday" shape.

After a normal meal, I can go about 27 hours before becoming seriously hungry. None of the hunger before that time is anything noticeable. Well - barely noticeable.

I'm going to have an 800 calorie protein shake now, and a pork chop.

It's still not enough.

I hate hearing this bullshit that bodybuilding is about dedication to training. The nutrition aspect is far more important, and takes up far more of a person's day than training for one hour, 4-5 days a week.

Really?

You know, there are other good reasons to swim also.

I went swimming for the first time since the bullshit pandemic started, about ten days ago.

A friend from high school who was there with his son saw me for the first time actually since high school. This was immediately after a shoulders workout.

Just seeing him try to make sense of my physique was worth the experience.  ;D

Shitty chest genetics aside, my physique is very comparable to Mark Wahlberg's [we're the same height and weight]. Walter Sobchak lives in a fantasy land where that type of physique doesn't draw people's attention. This is me five hours ago, at 187-lb:

(http://www.getbig.com/boards/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=679166.0;attach=1376279;image)

I am so disgusted with the number of white hairs I have now. Do any Getbiggers dye their hair? If so - any suggestions on that? Despite what a woman recently told me, I DO NOT think that white hair "adds character". I think it's awful.

Lately, the number of people doing double takes of me while I walk around with a pump has really helped me to feel better. It is a bit weird to know that my problems are 100% mental. But the sham-demic was very hard on me.

Thanks for the tips and advice, Keto Kid.

Getbig has been hugely supportive to me through this "journey". It's incredible the amount of highly specific, highly accurate advice I've been getting here. It's been fantastic, frankly.

I also have to wonder - for the Getbiggers who are bigger than me - SURELY, they must have a lot of people looking at them while in tank tops?  ???

I admit that I'm a pretty aesthetic dude, and not ugly - but if I'm getting the amount of attention I do at sub-200 pounds, I can only assume that larger Getbiggers are getting stares constantly.

Also, Keto Kid - I have a question about ketosis. Am I right to say that you are the one to ask?

The ghrelin mimetics WILL work ALWAYS. Everyone gains weight with them as per the studies. And it's not like like, "wow, I'd like a hotdog," it's more like this can't be healthy, it might kill me."
It's not like weed at all

Would be a shame if you stopped the cycle. Aren't there any types RTSs you like? Or just drink chocolate milk all day. What I did as a kid, which you won't do, is spoon a jar of peanut butter in my mouth and swallow it down with chocoloate milk.

I hate all food. I hate eating. It is one of the biggest pains of my life.

I just ate this cup of Panache rice with a pork chop, and a few brownies from my Father's Day dinner from earlier.

Today, I got enough calories in, thanks to Father's Day.

If I can eat like this every day, my cycle will be a success.

Basically what happened to me is after pouring all my work ethic into first, the mother of new baby girl [who turns five today - and John Goodman turns 70], and one other absolute complete POS, I just burnt out my ability to work hard.

I never poured more of my energy, my money, and worst of all - my mental and emotional energy and my LOVE - into two women, one of whom at least gave me my baby girl, only to get nagging and complaining and insane demands when I literally COULD NOT have done more, it has just put me into a state of - why even bother?

Why do anything?

I have enough money for life, so why do anything? Why take risks, when taking risks literally ruined my life, and I am only now just recovering - assuming I ever recover [which I don't think I will].

That's why I just don't want to risk putting forth effort anymore. And that's why I've selected working out and a cycle to commit to - because only I can cause myself to fail [unless gyms are illegally forced to close again].

That's why this cycle means so much to me - if I can do it, I'll start to want to try on other things again. So I need to do this. And it's been going on. Although now almost two weeks in, and I've still only taken one 250mg Sustanon shot so far.

One thing that IS going incredibly well is training - it feels like I'm in my training prime still. My training is excellent.

I'm going to go one step further, and make an 800 calorie protein shake, with approximately 50 grams of protein.

If only I can bring my training up - this may change my life, and make me want to live again, and take on projects. Not for money that I don't need - but just to feel alive again.

I'm going to force feed for the rest of this month.

This next two weeks will make or break whether or not this cycle is a success - or cancelled by Independence Day.

I will check into Ghrelin. I have no idea what the legal status is, or how one accesses it. I will look into it though.

I just googled and dozens and dozens of "legal" sites came up. It's a gray area item. GHRP-6 is inject but the effect is near immediate. MK-677 is oral works round the clock but that may make it more dangerous (same sides as high dose GH). About 20 bucks for a vial of GHRP-6?

MCWAY talks about all this dumb shit like how tweaking my workouts will help, as if THE factor in my physique progress this summer won't be nutrition and steroids.

Are you really this daft, or is this an act for our amusement?

I said from the start (two threads and several pages ago) that your nutrition SUCKED! Nutrition was ALWAYS the factor, with or without steroids.

You do recall my talking about beef, milk and whole eggs, right? I also mentioned shakes you could drink, either commercial ones or those made from regular foods (i.e. the aforementioned milk or Greek yogurt and whole eggs), based on your reportedly poor appetite.

And, in case you forgot:

The reason I suggested you change your training is because YOU WERE COMPLAINING about being chronically tired and not being fully recovered. In other words, train within your natural ability to recover, UNTIL YOU GET YOUR PRECIOUS STEROID STACK!!

That's good to know - I really don't want to waste a cycle. I NEED to eat.

All you did was bleat and wail about not altering your diet, due to health concerns and being "FATTER".

Your logic is beyond absurd. You're scared of increasing your calories, due to health concerns......UNLESS YOU'RE TAKING STEROIDS. How boneheaded is that?

All of this sniveling of yours comes from one statement I made some time ago: The modest gains you seek DO NOT REQUIRE STEROIDS and (contrary to your strawman arguments and warped logic) WILL NOT TAKE A YEAR AND HALF TO OBTAIN.

This bug in your head (i.e. There is just one fixed way to train and eat without steroids and "natural bodybuilding sucks", if that one fixed method doesn't yield results for you) is quite ridiculous.

That's too much food for a guy his (Matt's) size. I'd cut that in half. Plus, he has not indicated that he's using over-the-counter supplements.

And why is the meat being measured raw? I have a nutrition guide from 2001 that has the macros of cooked meats (Serving size: 3.5 oz/100 g).

That makes more sense.

400 grams (14 oz) of raw chicken? That's about  350-365 g (10-11 oz) cooked. NO WAY is that happening!!!

Yeah, Roman Fritz is a 280 lb pro, so yes, way too much food for Matt.
No idea on the meat, probably just his own preference.

And 20 gams of creatine seems like a waste/possible kidney strain.

If he's loading for a week, that's fine. Again, Matt has mentioned nothing about creatine or any other OTC supplements.

Really?

You know, there are other good reasons to swim also.

I went swimming for the first time since the bullshit pandemic started, about ten days ago.

A friend from high school who was there with his son saw me for the first time actually since high school. This was immediately after a shoulders workout.

Just seeing him try to make sense of my physique was worth the experience.  ;D

Shitty chest genetics aside, my physique is very comparable to Mark Wahlberg's [we're the same height and weight]. Walter Sobchak lives in a fantasy land where that type of physique doesn't draw people's attention. This is me five hours ago, at 187-lb:

(http://www.getbig.com/boards/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=679166.0;attach=1376279;image)

I am so disgusted with the number of white hairs I have now. Do any Getbiggers dye their hair? If so - any suggestions on that? Despite what a woman recently told me, I DO NOT think that white hair "adds character". I think it's awful.

Lately, the number of people doing double takes of me while I walk around with a pump has really helped me to feel better. It is a bit weird to know that my problems are 100% mental. But the sham-demic was very hard on me.

Thanks for the tips and advice, Keto Kid.

Getbig has been hugely supportive to me through this "journey". It's incredible the amount of highly specific, highly accurate advice I've been getting here. It's been fantastic, frankly.

I also have to wonder - for the Getbiggers who are bigger than me - SURELY, they must have a lot of people looking at them while in tank tops?  ???

I admit that I'm a pretty aesthetic dude, and not ugly - but if I'm getting the amount of attention I do at sub-200 pounds, I can only assume that larger Getbiggers are getting stares constantly.

Also, Keto Kid - I have a question about ketosis. Am I right to say that you are the one to ask?
I highly recommend swimming, you'll get great back/shoulder development, increase hunger, and sleep like a baby. Any keto questions ask away.

Thank you. It is nice getting attention at the pool also. People are so fat these days...it's like an everyday healthy in-shape person is like a leprechaun.

My question about ketosis is - what do you make of the following level of ketones found in my urine?:

I use MK-677 on and off and have had no problems. Used for nearly a year non-stop at one time at 20 mg's.

The increased hunger subsides after the first month though.

I now prefer to use 10 mg (before sleep), which keeps the water retention lower but still gives the benefits of better sleep and improved/faster recovery.

The only time I tried peptides was maybe 7 years ago when sermorelin was being talked about. I took a blend mixed with ghrp 2 and 6 and it cranked up my gherlin big time before bed. I’d have to get up within minutes, head to the kitchen and scarf down 600-1000 calories of fruit and junk food. It’s the most ravenous appetite I’ve ever had in my life. That plus hot flashes right after injecting made me never want to try it ever again.

I wouldn’t have minded it if I was bulking at the time, but I was leaning out nicely, so I’d head to bed not planning to eat until breakfast and still couldn’t control it.

Do what those competitive eaters do.

There are youtube videos out there, but basically they drink huge volumes of water to "stretch" and increase the volume the stomach can hold. Later when it comes to shovelling down food they can beat even the greediest sob. Takes some practice, but once mastered you're set

Do they drink and then purge the water? I mean water will kill in excess. My first thought, if I were to try this, is to put electrolytes in the water ( salt etc).

Some do it in the morning on an empty stomach and they'll add things like fruit or vegetable juice. Some eat a salad then pound water. Electrolytes or watered down gatorade would probably make more sense.

Some of the best competitive eaters are pretty slim/fit with flat stomachs or visible abs and they put away 50+ hotdogs in a sitting.

If you're doing it to help you consume 2000 to 3000 cals in a day then it shouldn't really be an issue

Wasn't there some type of supplement that came out 15 years ago or so, that was supposed to increase appetite? It came in a silver and black box by Xero Nutrition (or something to that effect).

Edit - AHHH!! Found it!! It was called "Engorge" by Xero Limits. They also had a weight gainer called "H.U.G.E. (Human Underground Growth Experiment) MASS" .

Speaking of years ago, it was 33 years ago today, that I got serious about weight training and bodybuilding after reading an issue of Muscle & Fitness that my friend left at my house.
