Unhappy Is this about right?

I am 5 weeks out of my first cycle which was
1-5 dbol 30mg
1-10 test enan 500mg wk

Two weeks into pct which is rxt and nolva.
during my cycle I was up 21lbs now I have lost 10lbs. I have kept up a good high calorie diet and still lifting. What I am wondering is this about the normal amount of loss post cycle? I expected to lose some but I am starting to get a little worried and I feel small, which sucks!

That's probably about right... I'm assuming you didn't use Adex or letro on cycle? Which would mean, you'd be carrying alot of water in light of the testosterone aromatizing into estrogen....

Now that your post cycle, and been hitting up the atd, and nolva.. your estrogen levels have crashed, and you've Dried up all that water retention.

You might actually gain back a few pounds of water weight once your hormones stabalize...

as for feeling small.. that is typical for 5 weeks out... your in the midst of post cycle blues.

Just buckle down and get through it...

No poobah, no letro or adex on cycle. Yeah I probably got post cycle blues, I feel like sh*t. I'll push on and just keep thinking about the next cycle

Something else to think about... if 10 pounds was water weight... would you say the remaining 11 pounds is almost all muscle? or is there fat involved?

IF there isn't much fat involved, you've done really well... but probably would of done better if you increased calories.. just a thought.

Their was very little if any fat gain. I have always been able to eat a ton and not put on fat.

Sounds like it's in your best interest to establish your base line bmr... I'm worried if you revert back to normal calories you could widdle down those gains further...

If you didn't gain any fat, you definately didn't eat enough... and chances are that will apply post cycle, unless you make changes to make sure it doesnt.

I wish I had your problem.. lol
