Gaining

Hello everyone,

almost a year ago I decided to put an end to all of this and just lose weight and I lost 27kg. Suits my lifestyle as well.

Every now and then there are opportunities.

I got roughly 6 to 8 weeks of being rather undisturbed ahead before I go on vacation.

Now, how did I lose weight?
- Intermittent fasting
- Cutting back the sugary stuff and portions.

Simple as that.

So my first thought was:
Cut that fasting at work and add a breakfast and add 200ml of HC to each.
Then go from work to studying and add another 200ml of HC, if my stomach can handle it. Then of course little late night something at home.

Adding a meal and 400 - 600ml HC will probably nearly double my calorie intake over the course of 6 to 8 weeks.

What are your experiences with regaining, especially with HC over a prolonged time frame?

I‘m hoping, HC will pull back the slingshot with delayed gains, totally screwing remorseful future me over.

Gaining is no fun without overshooting goals after all.

So, it‘s almost been three weeks and the first one was more like compulsive snacking inbetween.

The second week I started with 400ml of HC per day and I had to loosen the belt a bit.

As of yesterday, I noticed swelling of my lower belly, butt and hip. Kinda frightening, also kinda exciting.

I don‘t have a scale, so I can‘t give any numbers right now, just go with the feeling.

Oh, I think you will overshoot it. Gaining alone is much quicker and you have “fat memory” of your will kind of like muscle memory.

Regaining with the amount of HC will give you the softer fat and the delayed gains are so real. It sounds like the effects of the HV are already showing lower softer belly, hip and thighs won’t even come close to fitting in your pants even if you have not gained there before be prepared for gaining in these spots and others that you don’t normally pack on the pounds.

Quite interested in hearing how consistent you stay with the HC and how fat you get in this 6-8 week period.
