How much $$$ have you put into your body?

(gear, dental work, all types of surgerys, etc.?)

...Stuff that you didn't exactly need, but you WANTED, to make/help yourself look/feel better, or enhance your physical appearance...?

I don't want to think about it! But, I guess it was money well-spent. Hubby may bitch and moan a bit from time to time, but all in all I think he agrees...tee-hee.

Not as much as I would have if I continued using supplements instead of aas. Supplements are more expensives than anabolics over here.

I cannot even begin to imagine ..........millions.
Would I do it again? ...........yes.
OK I'd be rich by now probably, but bodybuilding has transformed my life. It gave me confidence, power and has helped me in so many aspects of my life. I am suceeding in all areas. It contributed to me getting such a hot chick as well! If I hadn't started I guess I could be an 8 stone loner sat in a bar somewhere drinking all of my money away.

quite a few pounds i would guess, but ask one question - how much would you have spent on beer if you had not cared about your body. a huge amount i would imagine.
tha main problem here in the uk is, as the iron game said, supplements. we pay about double the price as in america

enough well maybe a few more cycles.
I remember dropping 150.00 a month at GNC only a few years ago, trying to add size. Theat was even after I had a few cycles. Was hoping for the Holy Grail ... aless it only comes from hard work, and then more hard work.

Oh yea 3000 on dental caps. Gave up on hair restorer, dropped out before my fisrt cycle; in the genes.

Jeez, where to begin? LOL! If you think about annual costs, I imagine that most of us are probably in the same ball park. Let's see, food per month $500 or so. Gear per year (this will vary greatly per person), $3,000, gym membership per year $420, supplements per year $1,500....so about $11,000 per year so far.

YIKES!!!

Around 100 a month in supplements for the last three years. Adds up to be around 3600.00 The gym memberships, tanning beds, and buying a house close to the gym. The new close cause i can't fit into the olds ones. I could either be big or be driving a SS. I choose big.

How did I forget food. . .for instance the chick at the grocery store by me asked how many kids I have. . .I said why, she said because 3 days a week you come in a buy 2 gallons of mild and 3 dozen eggs. . .I didn't want to tell her this is the cheap protein you should see what I get at the butcher once a week.

I figure I could have built a perfect '69 Mach1 with a blown 351windsor.

Im with Ryker, I chose a big powerful body over a big powerful car.

I have spent alot and I mean alot but every last dollar is worth it. If I wasn't spending it on my body then I might be at the bar or buying a car or a house or spending it on a girl. No matter what everyone spends money just depends where you are and what you are doing. Food everyones got to eat that but I just eat More.
