Well here is my take. Diet is how I tell If I have been eating clean and Working out. Then Its bloating If not I tend to beleive its fat.. It really depends on your diet and what your body does with the food you take in. Theirs no real way to be sure.. And you have mail in You hotmail account. Jay ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

When I first got started I couldn't tell the difference. When I first saw the true definition of water retention on myself I paniced. I though it was all fat. Over the coarse of a week my body composition completely changed and I had no idea what the hell had happened. I wondered how I could gain that much fat so quickly(I gained 15 pounds in a week). But I stuck with my plans of bulking. Then it came time to cut up and the first week guess how much I lost. 15 pounds. I was in awe. I didn't know the human body could retain that much water. It just took me trial and error to learn the ways of my body. I realized I hold more water than a water tower. Still to this day everytime it's bulking time I look like a water baloon. Just the heavy carb consumption makes me hold puddles and puddles of water. Add in the androgenic drugs and I'm a water baloon. Eveytime I take a shot I'm afraid I'm just going to pop. But eventually it all goes away and I love what is left underneathe. ------------------ ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
