I am not sure if I should be posting this here, it is my first time on this site. I have a question. I am 41 years old and at about the age of 21 I starved myself for about a month (as far as I can remember). Previous to this I lifted a lot of weights ( I started in eighth grade) and I got very strong and stocky. After I starved myself, I lost most of the muscle mass I gained. I have since lifted quite a bit off and on over the years and my strength has gone up some, and my bulk does seem to be returning, especially after pulling on the greenchain for three yrs at the sawmill where I work, but it still doesn't seem like I have the muscle mass that I once did. Can this mass be regenerated naturally, or will it never come back without steroids? Thanks brett1405
