I think the fajitas I had came out with way the heck too many calorieson there. Probably is overkill. I'll see if I can hit like 3.2k today. My maintanance is probably like 2.1k. | ||

I get about 50-70g of protein in for breakfast, but I'm not in charge of making lunch or supper so I rarely get more than 25-40g of protein in for those meals, and often I get less. Would something like a protein shake be useful or good for me? Yeah, that might be a good idea. Or if you can bring in your own lunch/supper that could work too? | ||

Bringing my own lunch/supper isn't that practical at the moment, unfortunately, so I think I'll get some kind of protein shake. I'm completely clueless when it comes to supplements though. Is there something I should be looking for specifically or avoiding? There's so many options haha. | ||

I know a lot of the guys in the main thread like ON whey. Doesn't really matter too much tbh though. | ||

I've always gotten good results from the small meals but jesus are they a pain in the ass and Im ALWAYS hungry at night. The idea of eating some monster meals even at night sounds too good to be true but I'd be happy as hell if I could get that to work. I might give this a try for sure, anyone had some good results with leangains here? I've been following leangains the last few weeks and I really love it. Only having to bother with 3 meals a day is great and makes it easier to do your shopping/cooking and to stick to your meal plan. | ||

Im currently using ON gold standard double chocolate cause i found a 5 pound tub for 35$ and it's pretty decent. I liked muscle milk better cause its super easy to mix and tastes awesome.

I've also tried ON whey and it's pretty good. Cookies and Cream is too sweet IMO but I know a lot of people on here like it. I actually like sweet things but it is just sickly sweet to me. | ||

Typical Day of Eating: Workout Days - 2 Scoop Protein Powder in Water (24g P each) - Breakfast Burrito, I make with 4 large eggs, 1/2 cup of Sausage, 1 Slice of cheese and 1 Large Tortilla (supposedly comes out to be 930 Calories, 68g F/28gC/50gP) -1/2 Pound of Chicken -2 Cup of White Rice -2 Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwiches -2 Oz of Peanuts -2 Large Eggs -3 Cups Whole Milk -2 Cups of ice cream Total 3975 Cals, 217g Protein My "cardio" at the moment is : Walking to Class and Back, i make 2-3 trips a day. Only on week days, its about a 2 mile round trip This does not feel like I am eating about 4k Calories and, I honestly think I am making a mistake, but I've done the math multiple times and it comes out the same. I have a food scale that i use for all meats, peanuts, that sort of stuff. I use measuring cups for almost everything. I usually make a big pot of food, such as Rice,Beans, Hamurger meat, I measure everything that goes into it add up all the cals, then once completely cooked i use a Cup measure and count how many cups of food I have, then Divide total cals, and call one cup a serving of my food. For Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwiches, i just use the generic Fitday "PB&J" because I'm not sure the best way to measure my peanut butter, any tips? Sorry for such a long post, but Diet is very important and It will be the key to getting me toward my future goals or not. Work Ethic is not my issue. Edit: Realized I didn't actually ask anything in my post, For you more seasoned guys with tracking your diets, what sticks out at you? What seems like it could be off? Thank you Very much for any responses! | ||
