Apetite not there

Hey guys I'm new to this particular forum. I've been doing my transformation for about 3 years now I started on the opposite end of most you however I was over 400# when started I was always big but athletic till about years ago then got comfortable and lazy but in 3 years I've accomplished a lot. My question is I'm on my first test cycle (9weeks of prop) and I'm in to week 4 and I've noticed last couple weeks my appetite is not there. Now I will become starving then go to eat and barely finish a meal. Or only eat once or twice a day not including my shakes. Is this normal? I feel as if the test is working but I figured I would be eating more than I am.
Thanks
 
Maybe, you need to force yourself to eat, set an alarm if you have to, add shakes in between meals, you really need to eat or you will be wasting your cycle (if you are trying to bulk up that is).

Im not looking to bulk technically but adding mass is on the menu for this cycle burning fat is the main purpose with adding lean mass its a test only cycle but I did jump start with a week of tbol. All training is hypertrophy workouts and I eat clean pct will have a clen and t3 cycle added to it to finish it off . I picked prop because I figured with the fast ester it would trim extra fat... Thanks for the info
 
Ester has nothing to do with trimming fat IMHO, its all about diet/training and the other compounds (fat burners) you would choose to use.

That is true from what I've learned again this is my first cycle so all I learn is from others and boards and from what I gathered with right diet prop will melt bf but yeah I got a clen t3 cycle to add to my pct
 
IMHO you are better off using the t3 during the cycle when the test can prevent it from eating muscle.

I thought of that but decided to stick to it with clen since with clen it won't eat muscle either . Also thought Of running clen on cycle too but the shakes and pinning scare me
 
Esters affect conversion to estrogen but thats about it.

While this is completely counter cultural and unorthodox I'd suggest IF, particularly The Lean Gains Diet. It creates alot of break fast appetite. I easily ate, 2500 calories in 3 meals per day. It also is incredibly good for cutting as well since it increases insulin sensitivity.
 
I think it is a side effect from the test. Whenever I start a cycle I have a loss in my appetite for about 1 week. I still get my meals in and will force it down but I do not have the urge to eat. I know what you are talking about bro. But don't worry it does not last long.
 
I've never heard of this, care to explain it a bit more for me?

I could be wrong about that but the way I understand it because of the shorter ester, test-prop is more dry. I know its dry, too cuz I've had it. Taking an AI is not necessary for most people running test prop. Yet when people run Test-E, in order to control the water weight from the estrogen we have to take AI's or in my case I run Masteron. So why is that? The only difference between the two is the ester it is attached to, right?

My only thought is the half-life effects how much testosterone is actually converted to estrogen. The longer the half-life the more conversion and thus the "wetter" the compound. ?? Am I way off here?
 
hmmmmm, it all makes sense in theory :D
