Still bloated

[Gboyt]

I was bloated at test cyp 500 with .25 arimidex eod. And now i am bloated at 200mg test cyp with .25 arimidex twice a week. i'm still holding about 15lbs of excess water. Water intake is fine. Sodium intake is zero. Not doing cardio right now. Do i need to cut carbs? I eat a serving of starches like rice/potatoes with every meal. Or do i need to up the arimidex or switch to something else

How do you know it's water?

I can differentiate between water retention and fat by where i store the extra mass. I've done heavy bulks naturally and used creatine naturally. Fat gain hits my torso before my arms and water retention is evenly distributed. I still have abs when i'm bloated they just look softer. Abs are the first to go when im carrying 10lbs of fat

and i'm eating less than i usually do

You may have to do some bloods to check everything. Right now you're just throwing at it in the dark. Interesting though.

Sounds like your very estro senstive to me. leave rice in diet but get rid of potatoes.

how long have you been on 200mg? it will take about 3-4 weeks for levels to fall post cycle if you didn't skip pins and went straight on to just pinning a lower dose. id keep adex at 0.25 eod and taper it down slowly. remember both arimidex and letrozole arent suicidal aromataise inhibitors so they have a real possibility of giving an estrogen rebound hence why i always taper my arimidex down until im off.
personally i dont need adex on hrt and i had bloods drawn on 150mg of test e per week only to find out my test was 58.3 or a scale of 10-27! pleasantly surprised to see ugls being over dosed. my estrogen was also at 25 on a scale of like 15-155 or something like that and i hadn't used an AI for about 2 weeks

I think 100% i am really sensitive to estrogen. Weeks 1-4 i was crying myself to sleep every night with 20lbs of bloat lol. i'm getting bloods done once i've been on 200mg for at least a month, been 2 weeks so far and oddly enough i gained around 6lbs and am the most lean ive been since starting. Up 30lbs altogether. I'd love to know what ugl is overdosed, i ran out of the unlabeled test i was using after my last 500mg shot. Had to pick up some jintani cyp bullshit, i hope its not underdosed because i hear it's the cheapest shit around. half cc shot is still sore a week later. The only lab that i would semi trust for test is geneza.

your pretty much still on a cycle at the moment man, give it a few weeks for levels to drop and then see how your bloat is. im using Lamborghini labs

You need to start adjusting your carb intake. How much you take in and where from.
