Tegs LIFE Challange to OVERCOME Crohns Colitis and Ectomorphizem!

[Teg]

Hey Kids!

So First off i wanna Thank You for stopping by my Log on the way to my Life Changes, Goals, Dreams and anything else that i believe to come my way in life!

So now its story time!

Name is Donald G. Sams(I go by DG) born almost 27yrs ago, and im what would be classified as a Ectomorph! Standing at 6'1 and SKINNY! I have been lifting for 5yrs in total! First 2yrs were on and off due to being sick which ill mention more about in min, and the last 3yrs have been soild training and trying to get my muscles to grow and "POP" lol

So back to why i was on and off for the first 2 yrs of lifting. Well as i stated i was "sick". Not your normal sick tho, i have Crohns Colitis, and its very sever which means its been hard to control and keep me somewhat "stable"! Crohns complicates many things, and is part of why its SOOO hard for me to gain mass not to mention already being an ecto. I have had it, or well diagnosed since i was 10years old. Many Trips in and outta the hospital here in Idaho and in Utahs Primary Childerens, couple times close to deaths door, poked and prodded more times then anyone would want to imagine, used as a test baby for a couple drugs one of which im still on(remicade), and many many other things. Sooo you can say, ive grown up being a hell of a fighter to say the least! My attitude is nothing less then amazing and i know this. Anyone who knows me will tell ya as well! I live min to min, hr to hr, day to day, month to month and year to year with this and have overcome things that not many can imagine, let alone do! If you would like to know more about my "condition" or Crohns/Colitis PM me. A couple guys on here know what it is since they are in the medical field and a couple have family or friends with it!

So now im on my own adventure of lifting, and trying to build mass the best way i know how, and thats to learn as much as i can and apply it to myself with the understanding that i will come out on top one way or another!

That said, i love to learn about everything and anything that will help myself and others which in turn will help me to teach others! So if you have any type of advise you would like to give, pls, i invite you to give it, but i ask, give it in a respectful manner!

Not a bad intro, no? Ok then.... Lets start this journey off with a :dance:


***PS- This log was started due to the kindness, humbleness, knowledge, and motivation the guy below me has shown! Suncloud, you my friend are a stand up guy to say the least!

Rationale? Theres will be no such talk in this thread TL! :laugh: Well for now, im just doing what worked for me the other 2times i got sick and dropped weight. So with that the idea for me is to gain as much strength and mass back in the shortest possible time so i can get back to DC style Training. Is that what you were asking?

[Teg]

i agree. the pic at 170 shows chest development that's unusually good on a 6'1" guy. keep on truckin

Thank You Bro! It took FOREVER to get my chest to START to develop. That only started 2yrs ago. And what helped was doing Static Holds with dumb bells!


So i decided to start my T-911 this morn. Popped a tab under the touge at 735, it is now 755 and almost fully dissolved. Am i doing something wrong? I wouldnt think it would take 30min to dissolve?

Other then that, i kinda feel crappy this morn. Having some GI pain, but eh whatever.... K time to go make breakfast!

I got to sleep at 1030pm(right after posting in SCs log) and woke up at 5am! Woke up and couldnt go back to sleeep! ARRRRRG! Started feelin my GI tract movin and went to the bathroom, laid back down, and popped open the laptop and did some researching and what not. 730 came and decided, welp, nows good as time as any to start T-911, So i popped one under the touge at 735, by 8 it was dissolved completly. So i got up finally to make food, and made 2eggs and hashbrowns just to see what i could eat. Well it didnt go to well, ate 1 egg and couple bites of hashbrowns and felt like throwing up! ARG!!!

Your thread should be stickied under the title "Attitude".

Your outlook on life and lifting under the conditions you are in is remarkable, and should be noted (which I think it is) by everyone on this thread. It really puts how easy some of us have it into perspective. You motivate the hell out of me brotha.

My many Thanks to you Brother! :notworthy:

I try my best with what i know! There for, if i know the goal i want, then the quickest way to obtain it is to give everything i have in that moment in time regardless of situation and not let the "outside things" deter me!

On a side note, Guys in my gym(who are very big and very strong) have got to know me very well because they watch what i do and how i am, and they say i have more strength and attitude then anyone in there weak or strong big or small!

I take it as a HUGE compliment and motivates me to do better everyday!

So GMG, I thank you! YOU guys are a HUGE HUGE help in my motivation!

You all will never know how much it means when i read a post like this! :notworthy:

 

[buster0371]

sounds like good eating.

I hope i dont catch heat from none of the guys for saying this but... I'll even keep a cake around and eat a slice before bed if I feel I was under nourished that day. Yes, A FREAKING BIRTHDAY CAKE!!!!! Or anything ya know, but cakes got lots of carbs, calories, and fat. Dont get me wrong, I'll drink milk with it and get my cassien protein before I go to sleep too.

I need to pick up some multi release whey for bed time tho. I REALLY like BSNs Syntha 6! But i needa research and found out whats best for the money. I think ill go to Boise tomarrow and stop by bodybuilding . com tomarrow and ask my friend that works there cause ill be out of whey by end of the week!

i just drink milk.... but if milk upsets your stomach than there are a lot of other options. I have heard a lot of negative about syntha 6. Like 30% of their protein is just filler, or undigestable, or basically useless junk. I forgot the explanations but they guy basically said dont buy it. If you buy something like Pro Complex, it has: isolate protein, whey, cassien, and egg protein. That would be good post workout and before bed for the fast and slow acting protiens. Or you could get isolate for post workout, and a strate cassien for night time.

Ya the whole milk thing is out the door. Gotta find Goats milk again! Errrr!

Ya i have to, but i still love it lol.... Pro C has had some great reviews that i ahve read and Gaspari just came out with a new one called Myo Fusion and is very competitive as well. Hmmm to many choices!

 

[thundergod]

Yeah, if you're having such a hard time eating calories, you're gonna have to try and drink more of them. Multiple shakes per day between your meals. You can add peanut butter, coconut oil, honey, ice cream, chocolate syrup, even heavy whipping cream to add to the calories. Now I wish I could drink shakes like that!! I have to watch every calorie I take in. I put on weight extremely easy!!

Keep up the hard work Teg.

And this is one of my favorite sayings: You have to work just as hard and be every bit as diligent in the kitchen, as you are in the weightroom!!
I tell everyone this.

Thanks TG! Ill try my best!!! I dont know why my appititte is dropping? Same thing this morn! Woke up and I just didnt feel like nor want to eat! But i forced down a bit regardless. And im goin to force down a bit more in a few! Shakes are goin to be easy once i get some more supplies of food. Which reminds me i needa make a list and go after the gym!

Ya TG thats one of mine as well! Also i love- "You GROW in the Kitchen, NOT the weightroom"


And Speaking of. Im putting together a list of "Bulking" Foods for a Grocery list. Kinda like the weight loss one. Once i get together enough of it, ill post it in the Bulking Forum!

Ok im goin to go grab some Oats........:yumyum:

BRB Bulking! :buttkick:

 

[buster0371]

Yeah I get days like those too where i just dont feel hungry. I think it could be from over eating the day before. Or even undereating. If i dont eat enough it feels like my stomach size shrinks, than i get really hungry, than i completely get over it, and at this point I know im getting smaller!!!!

Regardless of the cause, just force yourself to eat, get your stomach in the habbit of eating a lot all the time and hopefully your hunger will start to be more consistant!

 

[suncloud]

liquid calories are the quick fix when you can't get in solid food. its not as effective (liquid diets suck), but it helps hit your caloric needs for the day. just make sure you're still taking in your maintenance calories from solid, then the extras from liquid.

Regardless of the cause, just force yourself to eat, get your stomach in the habbit of eating a lot all the time and hopefully your hunger will start to be more consistant!

Ya i get that same way most the time. Im starting to think its my Treatment Failing(next one is April 20th) and so my Crohns is acting up on me? I just ate a bowl of oats, and im goin to eat again in 30-60min!

liquid calories are the quick fix when you can't get in solid food. its not as effective (liquid diets suck), but it helps hit your caloric needs for the day. just make sure you're still taking in your maintenance calories from solid, then the extras from liquid.

Ok bro! Noted and will do! I really need to get to the store! I wanna start making my super shakes again!
