Two double quarter pounders with a large fries at macdonalds is my preferred bulking meal. The two burgers have 220 percent of the RDI of protein, so you can imagine how pathetically low that must be… If i’m with friends I’ll add a diet coke and tell the person serving that i’m on a diet.
I ate a 22oz cheese burger at Cheeburger Cheeburger the other day. Delicious.
Got my picture up on the wall of fame and everything. I was like the only non-fatass up there. They ring a bell and announce it to the whole restaurant and everything. I mean, it was deadlift day and I was just hungry.
If you are working hard in the gym you can eat whatever you like, that’s the beauty of it. My friends look at double 1/4 pounders and go “oh man, thats so unhealthy”. Whereas I look at it and say “sweet, thats like 60g of protein I can put to good use after tuesdays leg workout”

If I go to mcdonalds. I usually get three of those little cheeseburges with some fries. I love those things. Or Ill get a value meal and always add a little cheeseburger to it.
yo off topic, but where the hell does that term “The nth day of christmas” come from? Did in the past Christmas go on for weeks? Do they mean the weeks leading up to christmas? If you hold a hooker to your ear can you hear her soul? Cuz i’ve always wondered.

Damn…yet when I say I eat a hamburger all hell breaks loose.
LOL, hamburgers are great. But i never tried eating cookies or drinking cream to gain weight. Have you seriously done this? (honest question).
My motto has always been “no pure crap”. Everything else is fair game. I don’t eat cookies but have been known to down wings by the bucket full. I don’t eat cake but can toss down a quadruple whopper (yes, you can ask for one of those) in short time. I eat big but I don’t eat stupid.
I do agree with him, however, that it takes some serious bulking up if your goal is to truly stand out as one of the few who can get really big. That isn’t going to happen by obsessing about abs from day one if you started this skinny.
Plus, foods like wings and burgers are delicious and fun to eat. I just don’t see the point of denying yourself eating foods like that unless you are dieting for a show or photo shoot and how many people here can truly claim that?
I try not to eat cookies and shit, but if it actually will help me grow I’ll eat it. Last summer during coan-phillipi I took my 4000kcal a day diet and added a whole frozen pizza too it putting me in the 5500 range. I grew and added like 40 pounds to my deadlift in a few weeks.
pizza, wings, and burgers. They get you jacked.[/quote]
Ah man you got to try pizza with Buffalo mozzarella(its so fatty, high in protein and calories).

Probably something you don’t need to worry about.
Seriously.
Everyone who eats this way was already big to begin with.
Guaranteed.

You don’t know many skinny stoners with fast metabolisms. My buddy weighs 130lbs and ate 4 McDonalds value meals in one sitting, drinks, fries and all.
I beat him with 5. I’ll get all 12 one day…

Of course.
Haven’t you ever watched a documentary about some big guy where they interview the person’s relatives? Everytime they do that, one of the relatives talks about how much the guy used to eat
“Yep, m’boy Georgie always used to eat big. Shucks, I remember when he polished off an entire plate o’ ribs on his 14th birthday!”
Barring significant life changes, most peoples’ eating habits remain the same throughout their lives, and are inherited from their parents.
But keep thinking that the 150 lb. high school kid who plays WOW and eats 1,400 calories a day is going to turn into a Dominic Filiou someday. All he needs is…“just a few more calories”.
The point I’m making is that MOST exceptional people were born exceptional. What we perceive as talent is largely a matter of genetics. Michael Phelps eats tons of junk every day because that’s what his body grew accustomed to, not because he’s some ultra-dedicated athlete who undergoes great pains in his quest to gain mass.
I can say with confidence, that I’ve put a shitload more effort into GETTING big than any number of guys who STARTED big, with much less to show for it. That’s life.

Yeah, he has one meal like that and then he doesn’t eat anything for the rest of the week.

I didn’t start big or start this eating big. I was a small kid who ate small until I got to college. It looks like you got something wrong and perhaps you should tone down the neat little boxes you put people into.

You are seriously detached from life. Your examples are AWFUL as well. Nobody here has EVER claimed that everyone that eats big will turn into Vic Richards, but the people that get that big are not exclusively big to begin with. Go look at former pictures of some of the top IFBB pros.
The choice to begin training in a dedicated manner is a pretty significant life change, and will cause changes in a persons dietary habits as far as calorie intake is concerned.
Maybe the reason you have much less to show for it is because you’re a self-righteous pessimist that has put boundaries on yourself before you found out what you’re capable of, and now you’re capable of nothing because that’s what you’re willing to be.
