Let us consider somthing for a second..... I am going to probably piss someone off but i feel like if i really care about you i need to tell you my version of the truth!
Nope no one getting poed here.
Your body is allegedly tainted with some illness and trying to fight it, i guess? and then you take supplements with a purpose of sports performance, muscle and strength gain....
Which will try to allocate what little nutrients and water you DO have for your muscles....
Which inevitably leaves you sluggish , weak and tired due to your body as a whole lacking sufficient nutrition.
Yes, crohns is an illness which if you dont know or understand youll have to go do some research, and yes i take supps to help with muscle perfomance and yes i want them to help gain. The thing you dont get is there is a biproduct from them that i get, and thats feeling good/better. They believe it or not help me feel better while helping gain muscle! I cant give it to you in scientific terms, but it works, how do i know this? Ive experimented over the last 5yrs, and guess what, i actally FEEL BETTER then BEFOR! Supps, and Exersize/Lifting has been shown to improve crohns. I rarely feel sluggish or tired
I personally believe that you are VERY toxic and your body has been telling you for a VERY long time.
Of course it is, i have crohns!
The drugs you take keep you going in this state much like caffeine keeps awake a tired trucker who doesnt want to go to sleep, people need sleep and the drugs are only delaying or preventing your body from doing what it needs to.
You need rest and you need to get healthy BEFORE ANY long term health gains are possible... and in turn will leave your body in a position to HAVE and KEEP muscle. You are so unhealthy that you simply cannot support a muscled frame, you cannot be a high performance athlete with just willpower.
You body has told you this time and time again.....
The drugs that i have been on are what has kept me ALIVE! I dont know what you mean by get rest and get healthy? Ill never be "healthy" as the typical person is. Even guys/girls that are in remission never as "healthy" as the typcial person. BUT yet, there are PLENTY of ppl out there living a athaletic life with Crohns, Colits and IBS! There is one football player, that i cant remember his name along with a couple other athletes that have it and still do it in and outta remission!
Anyone who eats like you will eventually feel the way you do. Then there will be a doctor to tell them what drug to take and how to medicate it.... WHICH WILL NEVER MAKE IT GO AWAY. DRUGS ARE NOT THE SOLUTION!! They are very dangerous and will keep you in this toxic state FOREVER!!
Then PLEASE tell me what to eat that WILL NOT cause me pain and STILL keep me healthy and not end up in the hospital in 30days! Cause ive tryed over and over and over and over and over and over again! 17+ yrs and trust me, i keep trying things! YOUR RIGHT drugs are NOT the solution, but they are what has been and still are keeping me ALIVE this long. And your right again, they wont make it go away, but from ALL MY research ALL THE DRS research there is NOTHING that makes it go away. There is NO cure, there are only treatments. Weather it be by drugs, diets, holistic, natropathic ETC. But its never gone away! ANYTHING can be toxic, its all depentent upon each persons body! Everyones body is different same with crohns/colitis/IBS
SO logically you cant go on like this forever, you need to change. You need to eat better, you need to get off the drugs albeit slowly, since i know nothing of this drug. You cannot tolerate certain foods due to the very poor condition of your pancreas and small intestine. You lose muscle very easily because you are malnutritioned and you metabolise your own body to keep going. That gurgling is a high acidic stomach that is probably reacting to the acidic compounds that you just ingested and i am assuming you frequently have horrendous gas that is an indication of the very poor state of your digestive system.
Logically what other choice do i have? As stated BEFORE, How do i eat better and NOT HAVE PAIN? And again, As stated before ive tryed time and time again, still yet, no such luck! Nope, no gas. When i was younger i did, but anymore now days its the typical protein gas. My guess was its something i was tryin, i stopped it, and guess what it stopped. But of course my digestive system is in "poor state" that compared to a normal person, thats part of crohns! I know your goin to say well then you need to fix that or you need to do this or that. Thats what im working on
You need a plan. You need to lower your acidity so that you body can host the proper digestive enzymes and probiotic cultures necessary for you to digest the alkaline fruits and vegetables that are missing from your life. Then you need to take a break from the gym and eliminate ALL acidic food items that are unneccessary and eat a diet consisting of anti oxidants and a ratio of 80% alkaline and 20% acidic foods.
Well im all ears, but remember, its gotta involve not having pain that puts me in the hospital. Its a catch 22 bro!
You need to cleanse you body of toxins or you WILL have cancer or some other fatal illness. I am not being mean, i am not being rude i am being candid and i hate to see you go on like this in circles forever. How are things going to miraculously be perfect?
I know your not bro. But im not expecting them to be perfect. Nothing is and nothing ever will be, simple as that. I know this and accept it, but i do my best to do what works for me.
I am very impressed by your fighting spirit and positive attitude.
Thank You :bow:
You need to stop making excuses and saying youve done it all, thanks but no thanks to other peoples advice since you have only managed to keep yourself sick with your efforts.
No excuses here! I never said ive done it all, i have DONE ALOT, but there is always something new, something someone has never thought of and i know that better then anyone else and i understand it to boot! Actually like i said befor, OTHERS advise has not kept me sick, it has helped me. No offense, but that last part is VERY ignorant on your part being that you have no clue who ive talked to, what ive done, and how ive came to be were im at today!
YOU DONT HAVE TO LIVE LIKE THIS.
I know this, thats why im always trying new things and keep an open mind! With in reason of course!
Your positive attitude will be an asset when you rid yourself of toxic drugs, detoxify, lower your acidity, build up your immune system, begin to host your own healthy digestive system and then eventually your body will be able to digest supplements, maintain large amounts of muscle and digest enough nutrition to support your entire system.
I cant go on telling you "good job" " soldier on" Becasue i believe down in my heart that there is hope and a solution for you. I will not say one more word in this thread if you so wish teg, i honestly have the purest intentions you just need to give it a chance! Every second that goes by is a chance to turn it all around and i believe you can. You have the most important part of the puzzle, a great attitude. Dont let your positive attitude keep you happy with being sick.
Guess what it comes down to is you need to study more on crohns/colitis/IBS or i need to fig out a way(which ive been doing for many many years) to help myself be "healthier"
^^^^ dude its chrones. Look it up....... Toxicity is what a chrones patient deals with all the time. Im sure and i know that Teg is always looking at his diet.....
Yes.
I'm not going to hate on Somewhat's post above, because I agree with most of what he says. However, its going to have to be Teg's decision in the long run... I really don't see a DS cycle going well for you at this stage of your life man - but I do wish you the best in it - and of course I'll be following along.
That's the last time I'm going to be a buzzkill - but yes, it should be said.
I agree with most of it as well, but its not as simple as all of it! At this stage in my life, im healthyier then IVE EVER BEEN! I appreciate you TL and SWG for yalls info and advise, weather it seems like i do or dont, i truly do! When i do a cycle, itll either work or it wont, just as in everything else in life. Thank TL
I have to agree with SWG as well. But Timberlakers is also right, in that it will ultimately be Tegs decision. I'll still be following along but Teg i would almost guarantee that your pain would decrease if you started eating healthier. I'm not saying that you'll be pain free but a little less pain is always good. Always remember that your body is like a car and shitty fuel will make car run bad and your body is the same way. Either which way good luck teg and i'll be following along.
Thanks Pun! But as stated many times befor, i eat healthy, just not compard to yalls! I eat what dont bother me! Simple as that!
EVERYONES body is different, and it aint any different with Crohns! MADDS has crohns, yet he eat Fruits and Veggies and and hes good to go! I know i have said this befor, but i have spoken at crohns/colitis conferences, speakings, support groups etc. and talked to many ppl who have all this ish and fact remains, EVERYONE can tolerate certain foods. 1 guy in our support group can drink milk all day everyday even when hes doing bad, yet, he eats 1 bite of steak or chicken and hes dieing in pain, MADDS on the other hand can eat fruits and veggies, ME on the other hand can not, another good friend of mine cant eat anything unless its fresh, and another that eats fast food everyday all day yet he eats "healthy" and hes in pain, bathroom trips ETC.........
So with that all said i want thank SWG and TL for being good guys, and having care enough to say anything!
