Whatever was wrong seems to be fine now. My hunger is back in force. I think it may have had something to do with not sleeping enough.
Thanks for the ideas though. I’ll keep the dairy thing in mind.

at my university they did some times but not all the time…
you dont have to answer but where are you going?[/quote]
Not quite sure yet, looking at Penn state (yeah chuckle it up), Rutgers, and Lockhaven for a degree in either pharmacy or sports medicine (The kind where you have to go through a fellowship and perform actual surgerys, not a trainer).
^ah well cant help there… good luck

Thanks anyway, appreciate it.
Add digestive enzymes to meals
I’m a penniless college student. That’s not happening anytime soon. Thanks though. 
betain hydrochloride is pretty cheap…
it is… i’ll keep that in mind. thanks
“Just wondering, if you get a unlimited meal plan do they really stop you from taking shit and just storing it? Wondering for when I go to college in a year or so what I’m going to be working with.”
I have an x number of entrances to the cafeteria per semester plan. The university does not allow you to take food to go, but that being said it is not an enforced policy. You should be fine as long as you don’t walk out with half their silverware too.
Get on the good side of the lovely cafeteria workers. They hook you up.

I’m an 18 year old skinny fuck at 5’6" and ~150 lb (haven’t weighed myself in a bit). I’ve been bulking near constantly for the last year or so except for this summer where I just ate at maintenance for a few months like a pussy. I started at 115-120 lb. Overall I believe I’ve gained close to no fat at all. Possibly even lost a little over the summer.
Anyway, for the last two weeks or so I’ve had a bit of trouble getting in enough food. I’ve started feeling like you feel when you’ve just started bulking. The nausea threshold is way closer than it was just a week or two ago. Also I’m not hungry in the evening, even with just one meal since the morning. (A 1500-2000 calorie meal, but still) It used to be that I’d feel full for about half an hour, then I’d start feeling hungry again pretty quickly. Feels like my metabolism is slowed down a bunch.
Two things that could have something to do with it. The last few days I haven’t been training quite as hard as usual, as my body’s starting to get a bit unhappy. I guess you could say I’m deloading. Also I haven’t been sleeping quite as much as I ought to.
So given all that, I’m wondering whether I should keep shoveling in the food and suck it up? Or should I listen to my body? I’m leaning towards shoveling it in anyway, but I tend to make bad decisions in terms of knowing when to let up a bit for the sake of the long term. I’d appreciate any advice from more experienced lifters. Thanks for your help and sorry for the super long post.[/quote]
Your every day diet should look like:
Breakfast: Dennys Grand Slam with extra everything
Lunch:Cake, Peanutbutter sandwhiches, cake, bread, pies, anything you can get your hands on
dinner: Destroy anything in your path, eat out your whole entire pantry and do whatever you can to eat as much as possible.
I suggest doing the above, and eating a meal in between each meal. It should be an effort to try and get a blood clot. Well, at least that’s how I went from 170 to 240. It was alot of fat, bat if you train as hard as possible, alot of those calories help you gain muscle as well. My uncle first trained me when I was a teenager and told me to eat the worst shit I could get my hands on, and, well, I did just that. Don’t worry about all the fat you’ll gain till you get there, and when you do, good luck.

Youre a certified jackass.
Who in their right mind tells someone to intentionally get fat? That’s simply pathetic and lazy.
So I should just get really fat. Oh but there’ll be some muscle under there so it’s OK. The fuck?
I think that one common mistake is to expect your body to be able to just take in a huge calorie surge all of a sudden.
So OP, just follow the basic principle of never letting yourself get hungry for a while. Make that the goal, nice and simple. Eat “clean,” sensible foods like vegetables and meat. Get in plenty of fats. And follow the mirror–if you go a few weeks without gaining an ounce, then try to eat a bit more. You can set an easy goal for yourself–say, your normal diet along with an extra 300 calories of almonds/protein shakes/fish/etc.
You’re 18. Think about the long-run implications of what you do now. It’s more about building habits that will lead you to success than hoping that cramming a ton of food down your gullet will lead to results. Just lift heavy, eat plenty, and get a good amount of sleep.
Thanks for the advice.

Try the Digornio personal size pizzas. They are only a couple bucks around here and are pretty calories dense. Not the best food to eat, but great for a college kid. When I was in college I tried to eat at least 2 a day. Also try to get your hands on some cheap whey. I would order 25 pound boxes and they would last me a while. Slam a few scoops with the pizza. Relatively cheap way to get in some calories. Plus the pizzas are fucking awesome.
This thread’s turned into an advice goldmine! Thanks howie

Betaine HCL helped me a ton. Especially good with large protein meals. Youll find that your guts handle the volume of food better and youll gain weight on calories you were maintaining on. Provided that poor digestion was the problem of course. I dont think you need the large doses Poliquin suggests either. I never went above 2 tabs (650mg each) per meal and saw a 2kg (4-5lb) weight gain on maintainence calories in 2 weeks.
I like the sound of that. Any articles or tests or anything you used to determine whether one needs it or not? Or was it just a shot in the dark? Thanks.
you dont liek the food, and possibly too much fat if you get heart burn bloating that was my problem, cut the fat a bit maybe throw in a probiotic pill with a meal all that cafe food could be messing with your digestion
and the milk thing too, i used to drink probably like 2 liters of chocolate milk a day growing up with no problems, took milk down to a liter or a little less a day pretty much no nausea anymore
