    Random weight gain?

    Went from 206 to 222lbs on 2200 calories a day. My waist is BLOWING up.

    Lifting intensely for 1.5 hours a day, doing 20 minutes of fasted cardio every morning.

    Taking 8mg yohimbine before cardio on an empty stomach
    100mcg clen
    50mcg t3

    Keep in mind im on dining hall food so it's hard to be flawless here.


    Breakfast
    Egg whites
    4 whole eggs
    2 Packs plain oatmeal

    Training
    PWO: 2 scoops whey/16oz unsweetened almond milk

    Lunch
    3 Small chicken breasts (roughly 8oz chicken total, but it's hard to be precise here as they vary in size)
    1 pack oatmeal
    1T PB

    Dinner
    Chicken or turkey
    Broccoli

    2 scoops whey right after dinner

    8 Hours of sleep every night
    2 gallons of water every day minimum



    What's going on? I've tried cutting all my carbs and even just going shakes after eating breakfast but my weight is still exploding. Something's not right here, could it be estrogen related?

    FYI yohimbine causes water retention... But I doubt 8mg would increase weight THAT much

    That's what I was thinking. I'm going to stick it out on the yohimbine, but this weight gain is kind of freaking me out. Honestly, I would think the clen/t3 would kill the retention.

    I'd think that too. I'm starting some yohimbine soon, I'll let you know if it effects me like that. I'll be using 20-25mg ed though

    I have the same issue of gaining extra weight while on diet
    and hard training, i am also using yohimbine since 1 week now without any noticeable deference
    i think its the Creatine which causing this weight gaining, i will stop it and see how it goes

    Not saying I don't believe you but if that's the case bro something is seriously wrong somewhere. You ever had your thyroid checked out?

    225lbs this morning. Something is NOT right. Any advice here? I'm freaking out, I've lost all definition and am puffy.

    I plan to start taking a different t3, adding t4, and fasting for 48 hours to stop this. Maybe even tanking my estrogen.

    If it's just water, you're still progressing you just won't see it until you stop the supps. Trying eliminating what you think is causing the issue and see if that clears it up. Are you on any aas?

    Not yet, I plan on doing a mini epiandro run for 4 weeks soon though.
