Sounds like you nevertheless made some great progress.
Next time you should consider the strategy I recently used with great success.
4 week PCT:
Hcg 500iu EOD for the last 2 weeks of cycle + first week into PCT (3 weeks HCG total)
Aromasin 25mg ED for 7 days then 12.5 EOD for 3 weeks
Nolvadex 10mg ED for 4 weeks
I lost only 4 pounds post cycle following this strategy. It must be noted though that all my gear is doctor prescribed and obtained through a legal pharmacy. I've been told that is why my gear and ancillaries were so potent and effective.
