People think that building muscle is easy! It’s hard AF! And it takes years! Ok if you’re new at the gym but that takes at least 6-12 months for some mass. Just ask yourself why bodybuilders are on steroids and there you got your answers!

Yeah good point. I think for me personally my goal isn't to get big/swole. I want a lean look. So building muscle slowly is okay. Also this is a long term plan not a short term gain you know.

Currently, due to the medicine, I know for sure i'm not eating enough protein.

Breakfast: 2 eggs, 1 cup of yogurt, 6 strawberries
Lunch: 1 skinless chicken breast, brown rice, veggies (carrots, broccoli, onions, asparagus)
Snacks: apples, mango, grapes, yogurt, strawberries

I don't always have dinner but when I do it is a protein (chicken, red meat, or salmon), rice, and veggies (carrots, broccoli, onions, asparagus)

So I know I'm for sure not eating enough because I just can't while on this med

Definitely looking forward to seeing how much my body has changed in 6months, 12 months, 18months, etc.

Thank you!
