I thought about steroids, but I'm too stupid and lazy to read up on them and don't feel I should do them unless I know what harm, if any, they can cause. I have lost 30 or 40 pounds and feel I have picked up at least 10 or 15 pounds of muscle. If I can lose weight and gain muscle and strength anyone can.
