That looks like a decent day for me. Might be overdoing it for you though

Still a step in the right direction.

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've been having difficulty meeting my protein target each day. 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?

Thanks eshlow.

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.

Any of the general whey stuff works.

I know a lot of the guys in the main thread like ON whey.

Doesn't really matter too much tbh though.

ON tastes way better than this random brand I got from Costco the first time. Almost done my 5lb of cookies and cream. Just got 2 lb each of strawberry banana and mocha cappuccino! om nom nom

Son of a Bitch I just spent the last two days reading about leangains and honestly my mind is blown. 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?

Also, good to have you back

I've been thinking of adding Protein supplements to my diet. Other than taste are there any benefits to the ON whey? I'm assuming most of you guys order online, are there any particularly good online retailers?

This is what I was thinking of getting: http://www.optimumnutrition.com/products/classic-whey-p-187.html

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.

Now THATS a fucking diet. (yeah probably a bit much for you, but i think you're finally getting the idea!)
how reasonable is it to eat off wood instead of your tummy?

If you have a blender and want something slower digesting and less insulinogenic I can recommend ON casein. I'm not sure how well it mixes in a blender bottle (the ones with the cool globe-shaped whisk ball inside), but it does not mix very well with a spoon. Chocolate is my favorite flavor.

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.

I've been using Fitday PC and recorded about 4k on workout days with 200g Protein and 3.3-3.5k Cals on Non-workout days, and I actually lost one pound. My frame is only 6feet to 6'1, and Weight is 195 (now)

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!

^^^ Some people burn off way more calories than they should when they're trying to gain weight. Only thing you can do to counteract it is to eat more. Keep add 500kcal per day for a week until you start gaining...

Alright thank you, I figured that should be the plan, I just tend over over think things, and its always good to have someone put you back on the right track, or to even say keep what your doing.

-Cheers to everyone's goals! Let's get them!

Just read an interesting article on liver health and fat loss. There's a ton of info in the comments as well.
http://www.t-nation.com/strength-training-topics/1471

I actually drink some fresh lemon juice a couple of times a week. Didn't know it was good for my liver though.
Only a fool would die laughing. I was a fool.
