I'm on day 21 of Acutane and I don't notice much difference in mood or appearance. At times I think my face looks better and hours later I will think it looks much worse. I know in time it will look awesome. I went and had my blood taken in regards to the Acutane so now I'm just praying my liver enzymes are low so I can continue. I ate really bland yesterday, drank a lot of water, sounds like I'm preparing to drop piss for a drug test not remain on acne treatment.
I've been going to the gym about 4 or 5 days a week and usually rollerblade or bike everyday.
I have been taking photos every month on the 25th (shirtless, calm down ladies) to see the progress. A scale can only tell so much. I personally don't care what I weigh as long as I look good.
Monday- chest and arms and elliptical machine
Tuesday- legs and elliptical machine
Wednesday- back and elliptical machine
Thursday- no gym
Friday- chest and arms and elliptical machine
I'm getting hooked on lifting weights and going to the gym. After my Acutane treatment is over in Jan. I plan to drink a lot of protein shakes (110 grams+ per day of protein). For now I'm still lifting but not eating tons of protein because it raises liver enzymes and then I would have to quit Acutane. Sure I'm building some muscle by lifting now but nothing like I will in Jan. and beyond. I'm losing some of my fat and gaining some muscle. In the winter is when I plan to bulk up if you will and really do some heavy lifting with ingesting tons of protein (which builds muscle). I will probably end up posting some pictures on here of my progress although the pictures are hard to look at. I just need to look at the big picture and realize I'm improving. After I weigh in and get my picture taken August 25th I will post some pictures and the weight changes between them.
