Bulking!
I am in my 4th week of my Mass building program and I have to say while I enjoy the extra strength, I`m not a big fan of the excess fat I have put on. Its not all that much because I`ve still been doing a lot of cardio pretty muc everyday, but its enough thatI notice it. I wasn`t all that svelte to begin with and had only just gotten down to the weight I wanted to. I`m not feeling too bad that I gained weight because alot of it is muscle which is the whole point. I just don`t really like the look. Its okay for bodybuilders because they do it all the time. I think part of me is a little worried that I`m not going to get down to where I want to get down to by when I want to. My ultimate goal is to look good, in my eyes with my shirt off in the Summer, which means solid abs, slim waistline, and strong looking and feeling body. I won`t know if this bulking process was the right thing to do until I lose the excess bodyfat I gained. If it was I`ll probably do it again, but work better at keeping the fat gain down to a bare minimum.

I feel your pain. Been struggling with the same thing with bulking myself, and have been going on faith that the end result will be good. Hang in there.
