    Thanks, will do. When I ran the cycle the first time, I didn’t feel any different, aside from having worse insomnia than normal. Not sure if my diet was preventing me from making progress.

    My hope was that it’d trigger a major upswing and I would feel semi-cured for a time, and then have a higher baseline and just keep building off of that until I’m cured. But for me, the downswings outnumber the upswings and they are generally longer as well. I always feel like I must be doing things wrong.

    Cycles for me tend to be an initial upswing followed by weeks of either nothing or harsh downswings. I think you’re doing fine my man.

    Believe me, everyone does until they start to get some traction. As long as you're doing everything that is outlined, you'll start to swing things in the right direction.

    Thanks, I just made some changes with my diet, and I think that will be the decisive factor. It’s the hardest part for me.

    I removed the peanut butter and now have raw almond butter (the only ingredient is raw almonds) instead. Breakfasts are egg whites and bananas now, and I have protein powder on the way.

    I don’t think the red lentil pasta was my problem, so I will still have it sometimes on carb backloading days.

    I most likely hadn’t been getting enough protein or calories, since my arms haven’t really grown in a long time. I’m adding another 50 grams of protein per day and am logging literally everything I eat to make sure I’m in a small calorie surplus. The idea is to gain muscle and not much fat. When I’m gaining more muscle again I will have more upswings, and consistent morning wood again.

    I also ordered this “Snowball” underwear which has cold packs you put in the freezer and they chill your balls for 30 mins at a time. So you do that for 2 hours per day (not all at once) and over time it’s supposed to help your test production.

    I can’t wait for an upswing.

    Egg yolks are your friends. You should be eating them as well.

    If you’re that worried about your diet I would probably also drop the almond butter and just eat almonds. I’m not extreme about my diet but nut butters are still something I avoid, all natural or not.

    If you have everything that you eat logged you might as well post it here so people can give you some feedback. Couldn’t hurt,

    Edit: my bad CD I meant to reply to @LetsGo

    I drink egg yolk shots in the morning a few times a week. Best way to get the egg and no time used cooking the egg, and/or ruining the nutrients by cooking it too long.

    Lol - I didn't intend for that to sound so manly but well played! I tend to follow it up with a few shards of broken glass for extra emphasis.

    Solid choice. I’ve heard it’s great for the gut lining.
