FOOD!

[JACKAL]

dont eat too many fats in one meal. remember that fats like flax and natty PB (and virgin olive oil) contain high amounts of calories. be sure to spread them evenly. have some natty PB in a shake, then for your next meal take some flax, and so on. but be sure not to take in too much fat

Thanks for the advice bro. I think I over did it yesterday and I couldnt finish all my meals. Missed one meal.

[therock]

Ok this is getting hard! LOL! I have been eating the same shit for that past couple of months. Everyday the same stuff! I am hungry but I just cant seem to want to eat the food. Its like my stomach wants it but my mouth just doesnt feel like chewing it cause the saliva doesnt crave it. Does that make any sense? Is there anything I can do? I swear I think I need a whole completely new plan. Any tips or if anyone can share with me what they it, that would really help.

[JACKAL]

have you changed your diet any from your first post? if so (which you should have) then post your new diet so we can have a look, also, i assume youre still bulking?

[SloppyJo]

sometimes i'll get sick of eatin somethin (usually eggs) but i'll just get a big cup of water with it and whenever i take a bite i'll take a big swig of water and just swallow.. gets the job done when u need to eat

[therock]

Yeah Jackal I did change my diet a little and it looks like it will work better. Also I have been out the gym for like 5 days cause I hurt my shoulder but it feels fine now. Just started this new diet 2 days ago.
M1: 3 whole eggs, 2 full bacon, whole regular bagel w/ butter or cream cheese which ever I have in the fridge that day, 8oz OJ, and a bowl of oatmeal. 1210calories, 152carbs, 56g protien
M2: Big shake, which consist of 16oz whole milk, 1/2 cup of oats, 2 scoops of whey protien, one contianer of yogurt, 2 spoons of flax seed oil and 2 spoon fulls of natural BB. 1460calories, 118carbs, 79g protien
M3: fetuccini Alfredo w/ chicken and broccilli (this will either be frozen dinner or sometimes when I have time it will be real food) 630calories, 45 carbs, 30protien
M4: Tuna sandwhich w/ mayo and wheat bread and a yogurt. 730calories, 72carbs, 46protien
Preworkout shake: 500calories 25carbs, 56protien
Postworkout shake: 500calories, 80carbs, 56protien
M5: This I dont have a specific meal for, but it is usually rice and some type of meat. I am trying to find a specific meal for this time so I know exactly what I am eating. This meal is about 2hrs before I go to bed. So if anyone has a meal they can throw in here for that time I would greatly appreciate it. Right now the calories I would say are around 500 and about 40carbs and easily 30g of protien.
Night time protien: 200calories, 4carbs and 40g protien (mostly casein) So that is a total of 5730calories, 532carbs, 393 protien a day! Now if I dont gain on this then I dont know what will. I dont know how much I wiegh cause 2day will be the first day I go back to the gym since my shoulder problem. Hopefully it is healed! Thanks for the help anymore info please post.

sup BOY.

Hey

you need to toss the alfredo dinner because those frozen foods carry toomuch sodium and that my friend can destroy your diet, especially if you are going to be eating it every day. Do this instead
calories
8oz if brown rice (cooked weight) 320grm 65-70grm carbs
8oz chicken breast (raw weight) 300grm 46grm protein


thats is a total of 620grms of calories, 60grms carbs, 46 grms protein.

thats a lot better dawg.

20 pounds is not too hard to obtain in three months. but try as much not too cheat alot so you do not gain toomuch fat.

EAT FREAKY BIG, EAT FREAKY LEAN, GET FRREEAAKKY BIGGG.

am out yall.

good luck.

[therock]

Yeah dawg I will do that but I will alternate from day to day. One day I will eat the frozen dinner and on day I will eat your meal. Reason being cause not everyday I can sit down and cook the shit. You know what I mean bro. Anyways try and hook me up over there on the meat bro. Later. Oh yeah dont forget the Jay Cutler video.

[diplomats]

yeah

let me know ahead of time and i do have the jay cutler video right now so call me or something. I might catch a workout with you tomorrow. BRING THE MARKUS RUHL .


holla back dawg

what you could do about the cooking is have your girl cook all your meals at once and then freez them. when you are ready to eat just bring out and microwave.

[therock]

Nah man I hate doing that. It just doesnt taste the same. But like you said, it doesnt matter how it taste its just to get you big. So I guess I can try it out when I am in a rush or working that day.

[SloppyJo]

yea.. i saw a documentary on ronnie c. on tlc or some bullshit and during his bulking stage he'll cook like twice a week and he'll just make a ton of chicken and keep it in a ziploc in the frig
or u can just cook ur twice as much when u cook the first time and save it for days u cant cook

look, i tried giving you advice, so take it or leave it, but these are the things that are going to end up hurting you while you bulk:

1: the bagel and cream cheese/ butter: this serves no nutritional importance in your diet. in fact, the processed carbs and fats will only back on sloppy weight

2: 1 container of yogurt? im assuming this is some flavored yogurt filled with sugar (if im wrong i apologize). these containers are filled with simple carbs, which are great for you if you want to get fat. secondly, in meal 2, youre putting whole milk, 2 spoonfuls of PB, and flax in one shake. in my opinion this is a fat overload. spread your fats out better throughout the day.

3: look, we said you should drop the fettucini all together before, if you dont want to listen then dont, but this meal is doing absouletly nothing to promote muscle growth. its excess empty calories.

4: lose the mayo, i think we went over this before, also. the mayo is only excess calories and saturated fats. if you need a condiment use mustard or suck it up and eat it plain. also, lose the yogurt, if you need more carbs just eat an extra slice of wheat bread.

you dont have to take my advice but i seriously recommend you rethink this diet. if you stay on this diet i believe most of your gains will be around the waistline.

my last bit of advice:
spread out your fats evenly throughout the day.
cut out the majority of your sugar and saturated fats (ie mayo, yogurt, fettucini, bagel, cream cheese, butter)- these are not part of a healthy diet- bulking or cutting
if youre having trouble finding time to prepare your meals, then cook two nights a week, but make plenty of chicken breasts to last you the next 3 or so days.

again, you can take or leave my advice, but dont say i didnt warn you.

[therock]

Thanks Jackal. I will do this cause so far I have been lucky and didnt gain that much on my waist but I dont think I will stay lucky. I try to cut out most of that stuff and I will post a new diet by Monday. I will have to calculate everything. One question, should I put any good fats in my pre workout shake which is about an hr before I workout?
