I think you should really make a book out of your replies to peoples posts. I for one would buy it in a heartbeat.
BTW, I’m a hardgainer too. I’ve “only” gained aroung 120lbs in 17 yrs of lifting.
I hate agreeing with the man but professor X is right.
Personally I can’t eat right so its always easy if I want to gain weight just cut back on the cardio.
Are you against supplements? if not, the fastest easist simplest is protein shakes and creatine. If you are in the gym properly at 180 lbs you won’t have a problem gaining good weight.

That should give you ideas for better foods to eat, though “Anything that’s not KFC and McDonalds” should be obvious. he best way I’ve found to figure out my calorie needs is to use something like Fit Day to track calories while tracking my changes in weight/measurments:
It’s really a matter of using the resources provided in EXCESS on this site and others to figure it out for yourself before acting like you don’t have enough info.
