Can't seem to get enough calories
« on: September 17, 2011, 08:12:07 PM »
I got sick about a month ago. When I got sick I was right at my prime. I was weighing 215 pounds bf in the single digits. Feeling and looking great. Using an amp of sustanon 3 times a week with some masteron. Well I got sick bad. It kocked me down to a 198 pounds. I think it was mono or something really bad because it lasted for almost a month. I'm still feeling the effects of it. I want to sleep when I get home from work and my throat will get soar for a couple days then feel better. I can't seem to get my appetite back. I've always had trouble eating I've always had to force it. I get full very fast and I feel like I'm gonna be sick if I eat more. How to you get over this feeling. I need to learn to stuff my face more. I'm back up to 205 but I just feel small and weak. I continued with the cycle I'm thinking about uppding the dose a bit until I get my weight back up.

I haven't been sick the last 2 years except for a minor stomach bug. When I was younge I use to get strep throat a lot. I started taking that airborne stuff a few times a week. You drop it in water and it dissolves it's a big shot of vitamen c.

I wish I had the "no appetite" thing you guys talk about.

Did you go to the doctor and get checked out?
Are you still feeling sick? If so, you may have Whooping cough and that can take up to 3 months to resolve.
Either way, you should get blood work done to determine what you have.

hahahahaha me too man... I just cant stop eating until someone pulls a gun on my face. Especially when Im at my parents house and you see all the good stuff cooked for the family.

When Im living alone its much easier to stick to a diet...and starve.  ;D

My eyes are always bigger than my stomach! I need to start forcing myself and training myself to eat more. I will pile on a bunch of food on my plate but only be able to eat half of it.

Starve for couple days and see how much you will suddenly appreciate food.  ;D
