Wow, my pictures came out hyooge this time. Not sure what is up with that. Anyway, I’ve had to restructure my diet a little.
I ran some antibiotics for 7 days and it completely wiped out my good bacteria in my digestive tract. Needless to say it gave me some terrible “issues”.
I’ve now increased my calories up around 3k. Most of the extra calories are coming from pro-biotics, pre-biotics, extra vegetables and different fats than normal.
I’ve also removed all gluten and most “anti-nutrients” from my diet, plus I’ve removed all stimulants especially coffee. I’m still drinking 2 to 3 zero carb energy drinks but may have to remove them as well.
Hopefully I’ll be back on my feet and can keep rebuilding my body.
On the hernia recovery front I’m actually doing more lower body work and I feel less and less strained from training. Don’t get me wrong though. When it hurts it is most definitely unpleasant.

I’ve been trying to figure out what kind of lower body training I can do without bothering my surgery site and it seems like everything bothers it. I’ll just have to keep changing things till I find what works without aggravating/straining the surgery site.
Funny thing is that all the posterior work doesn’t bother it. Only the quad dominant/anterior crap does.
