Midnight Snack

Dustin I feel your pain...I burn 3000calories a day literally just sitting on my ass. When I lifted regularly, I was recommended 5000+ calories to put on any muscle. I was about 5% body fat and couldn't gain weight for the life of me. For me, any weight is good weight. I usually eat 5-6 meals a day, and when I'm lifting, I have a double dose of Whey twice a day...

My brother maintains a 6000+ calorie diet a day and is 204 lbs of solid muscle... It's rediculous almost. He also partially lives in the gym haha.
-
I'm dreading the day my metabolism decides to just stop because my cravings won't. Then i'll get my wish and more, i'll go from 140-145lbs @ 8-9% bodyfat up to 240-245lbs @ 20-25% bodyfat.
Oh well don't care

I think that if i ate that mcdonalds meal i would shit myself 3 times before i got myself under control. You sir have intestinal fortitude
minimum 6000 calories (relatively healthy though) 200g supplimented protien and 200 meal protien per diem intake to maintain metabolism and weight, 8000 to gain...

damn. someone wanna donate me a metabolism? I eat maybe 2500 calories a day, I am active and still dont lose weight, If anything, being active just makes me gain muscle, and not lose weight.x2 man I pretty much eat my main meals each day like breakfast, lunch, and dinner and they are always pretty healthy. Like for breakfest, eggs and toast and a glass of orange juice. For lunch I always make a sandwich in the morning and eat it at lunch. And for supper I always each something halfways healthy like lasagna or spaghetti. Something like that. I love pasta. But I always seem to gain weight. :icon_scratch: Is there something I am missing?
3 things i couldn't live without.........
:3gears: -> :drink: -> :poon: -
I have at least 1 protein shake per day too.
Just got done with 4 pieces of bacon, 2 eggs, hashbrowns, 2 pancakes, and another glass of milk. In about an hour i'll go get 3 taco bravo's from taco johns and a medium dew...I have had no urge to use the bathroom yet...

there is something disturbingly satisfying about eating nothing but pure garbage and complaining about being skinny. metabolisms are neat.

I used to have that problem, now I eat about 25% of what I used to and have 25% more body fat....and weigh the exact same amount unfortunately. Case in point, my Senior year of HS I weighed 225lbs w/ a 28" waist, now I weigh 225lbs w/ a 35" waist.

Pancakes aren't exactly healthfood nor is ice cream, but both contain carbs/fat which I need and the taco's have protien and fat as well.

Ive found that you can offset this by drinking busch light.

Bah the McDonalds thing was just because I wanted to enjoy the free food while I still had access to it. I only have fast food on Tuesdays usually and it's because of Taco Tuesdays...

You shouldn't focus so much on weight but rather on how you like the way you look.

Just don't slow down your activities at all. I haven't been as active since High School and it catches up with me a little bit because I ate a lot of fast food since I found it extremely hard to get my needed calories otherwise(just not enough time to thoroughly plan my meals). I am actually starting to lose shape in my ab muscles for the first time in my life. Give me a week or so straight in the gym and I bet I'll undo most of what the past year or two has done without a regular workout.
And Dustin, you are lucky with the no shitting thing. I usually shit right after I eat, and it's so bad because its the garbage that even my body wouldn't take as nutrition lol...
