A month into my TRT (Testosterone Replacement Therapy) and there have been some changes for sure! During this time I did do a 2 week mini cut in preparation for my Cruise trip, damage control if you will. Of course the cruise itself was a lot eating and so this too is a factor but I am going to say that the mini cut did offset some of the eating for the most part but not all of it as I feel I am up a little bit up in body fat from pre TRT.

I started out at 185 pounds, two weeks in I was 190 pounds but again keep in mind I was mini cutting all that time. I then went on my Cruise and of course gained some weight, pretty sure I hit 202 on the ship but bounced back down to around 195-197 after a few days back eating a bit better.

So now 1 month into my 100mg per week TRT and I am sitting right around 196-198 for sure holding more muscle than before TRT and I do feel stronger in the gym. I want to trim off some of the fat and get down to around the 190 mark as my goal now is not so much size but rather health and if I can be a lean 190 pounds, I know for my frame that will look good and not be to strenuous on my body or require a lot of work to hold on to.

So for now I will stay the program and see where it takes me, I am happy so far with how I feel and the results I am getting in the gym and how I am looking. I will have an upcoming appointment with my TRT doctor to make sure my Testosterone is hitting the mark he has set for me of around 22 nmol/L. I may need to make an adjustment afterwards but for now things are feeling a lot better.
