Transitioning to bulking and feeling bloated lately
I’m on a 2 weeks maintenance break before going on a bulk after a 6 months cut. I’m only 1 week in to my maintenance diet which meant eating more cabs and I’m really going bloated lately and feel like I’m fat and don’t want to bulk lol. This is just normal right?

Thought on diet sodas
