I grunted today

280-300 puts me at 1.33-1.43 grams of protein per lb/bodyweight. I plan to keep the protein right there through this gaining phase, so that ratio will fall to 1.2-1.3 grams/lb. Would you suggest that I drop it?

I do the ten-minute walks after every meal, but I’ve actually found that drinking makes me more uncomfortable when I’m eating substantially. I’ll down two liters as upon waking, then spread out another two liters during training and between subsequent meals. I try not to drink anything after dinner because I already wake up all too often to pee (prostate markers are fine in recent bloodwork).

I hopped on HCG monotherapy a few months ago, which has brought my total T from 250 to damned near 1000. Hugely improved my quality of life. I run 12 units every day with an insulin needle

Moved over to your log.

I normally wouldn’t recommend having protein over 1g/lb BW for natties, but with being on HCG monotherapy, you’re in a gray area. If it were regular TRT id say you’re fine to carry on as you’ve been doing, but here I’m not sure.

In any case, it’s not hurting you any to keep protein high. I’m curious, do you know what your fat intake is?
