I'm rapidly gaining weight

[kristianlaz]

I started my bulk 30 days ago. My TDEE is about 2900 and I have been consuming between 2500-3000 calories depending on the training intensity of a given day. I also began taking Test E 14 days ago as well as creatine mono. Those are huge factors to the overall WEIGHT gain due to water, but I have also noticeably gained TOO MUCH actual body fat (as well as some muscle thankfully). My macros are (about) 250 carbs, 310 protein, 40-50 fats. From (about) 30 days ago till now, I have gone from 190lbs to 203lbs. What's going on guys? I'm sure someone else has had this experience.

Most of its water weight from the test and creatine.

Creatine mono can cause some people to hold as much as 5-10 pounds of extra water weight and make them look bloated and soft. You may ne one if tjose with that reaction.

13lbs man, with all that going on i'd expect you to be up by at least that much, creatine ethyl ester doesnt cause you to hold as much water, also are you using an AI like aromasin or arimidex? The addition of one of these if you aren't already would help keep water weight down, if you feel you're legitimately gaining fat, alter your macros but hard to tell when you're a walking water balloon...
