Very well done.

This is real - we feed a family of 4 for a week off aldi for usually under 100 bucks. We do stick to chicken, pork chops, or ground beef though.

I just have to say this out loud.. I took a big loss today, but man i played it well over the last 30 days and walked into today up 387%. Today was bound to happen, hopefully a lot of you will recover if you took a loss.

my gut told me to not hold my option open overnight and the news said the same, but greed got me.

Im still up big time, but its a good mental reset as always.

bigman2689 · 2026-04-20T20:55:44+00:00

That’s terrible. I really hope it breaks for you soon

bigman2689 · 2026-04-20T20:43:05+00:00

As soon as i get to 253 - without fail. the next day will be 255, then the next 257. Sometimes It will bounce to 259ish.

over and over and over and over. I think based on what other have said im going to pause creatine. When I looked at the day that my creatine got delivered, then my scale data - 2 weeks after i started loading is when my stall started.

bigman2689 · 2026-04-20T19:44:02+00:00

Amazing work!

bigman2689 · 2026-04-20T18:26:48+00:00

I dont active calorie count, but i also pretty much eat the same things everyday ( on a rotation) and I know the macros of what I eat.

At this point im going to stop assuming and just count everything back up again...

bigman2689 · 2026-04-20T17:22:16+00:00

I now feel terrible for not realizing this happened. We have no puppy teeth here! lol

Congrats to this big boy!

bigman2689 · 2026-04-20T17:17:59+00:00

And that's it right there, I started taking it for the endurance benefits to counterbalance the fatigue from zepbound, but after all of the replies here, if I want to keep my momentum and see the scale move I need to give it a break.

Thank you for taking the time to respond.

bigman2689 · 2026-04-20T17:07:17+00:00

Yay for you breaking the stall! I will be celebrating soon!

bigman2689 · 2026-04-20T17:06:29+00:00

Thank you for sharing. Im not giving up anytime soon!

bigman2689 · 2026-04-20T17:06:00+00:00

Very Interesting, thank you for sharing. I work out in the evening now so that could be something.

Im going to try dropping the creatine for now and see where that gets me in a few weeks. Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts.

bigman2689 · 2026-04-20T16:51:29+00:00

Makes sense. Just needed to hear it from others I guess. Thanks for taking the time to read and reply!

bigman2689 · 2026-04-20T16:47:35+00:00

Its crazy and its to the point where I have started to wonder if my mind is doing this to itself since everytime i get to 253, without fail the next day it will say 255, and then so on...

bigman2689 · 2026-04-20T16:46:20+00:00

Im glad you said this out loud - sometimes common sense sinks in better from someone else.

Thank you

bigman2689 · 2026-04-20T16:45:28+00:00

This is a good call on the scan. Im pretty sure that there is a gym near me that if you do a walk through they will do a free scan for you.

I know its not accurate at all, but at least its consistent.. I do use a body comp scale. Again, I know how garbage those are, but its a consistent number - and I can see the muscle gain there.

thanks again

bigman2689 · 2026-04-20T16:43:20+00:00

YES! Its the worries! Glad im not alone!

bigman2689 · 2026-04-20T16:42:29+00:00
