Haven't been able to gain weight for 7 months and have been fluctuating between 165-170. Had all kinds of stomach issues (bloating/heartburn) that made it impossible to eat consistently. Jumped on the scale today and saw 173.:blessed:

I wanted to do my first cut and be ready for summer but I don't have enough mass. I might try to go for 180-190 but my stomach looks :flabbynsick: when bloated. I'm used to being skinny so I hate having a bulking gut. I'm about to cop some baggy t shirts.

Y'all got any bloating remedies?
I think its the sodium that does it.

I was eating out a lot of takeout last week (calories still in check), and I was looking :flabbynsick:.
After a couple of days of eating dinner at home I was back to normal.
shyts crazy...I heard other people say that salt will bloat you, but I didnt know it was like that.

It's not sodium because I cook my own meals.

I've tried probiotics, digestive enzymes, and HCl/pepsin with no success.

I've been going gluten free for the past 10 days and while I still have some bloat it's not uncomfortable or preventing me from eating and drinking water. In about two more weeks I should know if gluten is the culprit.

what brand of probiotics?

are you talking about the type of bloat that is slightly uncomfortable?
like your digestion is off or something?

The only probiotic that has worked for me is called Bio-Kult.
I was doing a teeth whitening treatment awhile back and swolled some of that bleach shyt on accident (before I knew I should be really careful with it)...after that, my stomach was all fukked up.
I couldnt eat anything but vegetables and meat or else my stomach would just feel super full and full of air...it was kind of painful.

I tried a few probiotics...but the only one that set me straight is Bio-Kult.
I take that shyt religiously now.

I've tried 3 different brands but don't recall them working well enough for me to stick with them after the bottle ran out.

The bloat I'd get would have me looking 6 months pregnant and was very uncomfortable. I'd eat around 7pm and not be able to eat anything for the rest of the day. It felt like my food wasn't digesting. I think it's partially related to stress because it usually happens at work. If I start getting pissed it goes from bloat to heartburn. When I'm home on the weekends I can workout and eat as much as I want.

Bio-Kult is $40:damn:. It does have more different kind of bacteria than the brands I used.

yea...thats how I was feeling.
I couldnt sleep some nights.

You get 120 pills for $40...so depending on how many pills you take, that could be up to a 3 month supply (I take two a day).

Horny at the gym? Since I've been working out, I'm horny all the time. :heh:

I wish I worked out when I was younger because my libido is off the charts even old ladies could get it.

To answer your question, whenever I do get horny at the gym, I just tie my shoes for a reaaaal looong time :mjlol:

170 calories for 16 ounces

Only drink during intense athletics or as part of a macro controlled diet plan

It does hydrate better than water and gatorade, got lots of potassium
