How exactly do people get fat?

[Guest]

healthy protein is hard and that's probably why this is so hard for me.

3400 calories = a gallon of chickpeas, lol

not really all that hard. Chicken, fish, beans. Lean pork and even lean beef are all ok. I used to mix an EAS protein shake in the mornings (24g) but not lately. I'm on a cardio (running) kick right now so I just eat some greek yogurt instead (14g).

With the running I can pretty much eat whatever I want whenever I want. Even after the holidays I can see my abs (haha MPF!). Are you doing alot of cardio?

Eat a lot and stay on your Comp, seeing what the huddle says for 8 hours straight a day. You'll gain weight real soon.

I make a juiced up protein shake that helps

1 cup of 2% milk

1/4 cup of plain nonfat greek yogurt

1 tablespoon of almond butter

1 scoop of whey protein

Adds up to

462 calories

14g fat

32g carbs

49g protein

But I can't drink this sh*t all of the time.

What else are you eating?

A gallon of chickpeas would make your stomach explode from all the fiber! lol

I ate too many chickpeas once, it was not a fun day!

What else are you eating?

for dinner: fish twice a week, chicken once a week. Some kind of beef dish like tacos usually, breakfast dinner. Usually a grain. Rice, rice/lentil mix, quinoa. Green vegetables.

Rarely do I get 1000 calories out of a meal.

for lunch: leftovers from dinners, usually.

breakfast: usually bagels with cream cheese

weightlifting forums will tell you to limit cardio, if you are doing that.

The above looks ok, since you dont want to get fat. Just eat more of them.

Does sex count? If so, I got in about 3 1/2 minutes of cardio yesterday.

[Mrs Pantherfan]

Jase..you're eating like you're trying to lose weight...you're going to have to endure those protein shakes if you really want to gain. Eat high calorie snacks..eat two bagles instead of one... how often are you working out now? Like Catfang said..limit your cardio and lift more
