Finally have this gaining thing figured out...

No pics, no posing, no "release" until you've reached your goal. For me anyways....that was what always derailed me - giving in allowing myself to experience the pleasure of everyone's reaction.

This time I'm delaying all that and gaining at a breakneck pace....I may be posting some jaw dropping comparison shots in a month or so if i keep this up - goal is 50 pounds in 90 days and i'm way ahead of pace already.

The following is just my opinion and advice. First, do no harm. 50 pounds in 90 days is far too rapid, risky, and may not even be physically possible without abusing salt and retaining dangerous levels of fluid. Avoid things that you know are bad for you and work toward 1 or 2 pounds per week. Be active. A slow gain gives your body much needed time to adjust. Take care and be good to your body.

yeah you're probably right - but trust me i'm listening to my body as I go....20 or 30 pounds is definitely a possibility anyways at the rate i'm going. And that alone would be unchartered territory for me - i always get to 5 or 10 and then fall off the wagon....but something tells me this will be the time.

Many of us have dealt with people with no pictures, but promises to get some later, only to find out they were fake. You may be real, but I think a lot of us are going to be skeptical.
