well i would never try to eat that much fiber/vegetables…I think you may be alone in that regard…
and…yeah, i count calories/macros amounts…I try to eat the same food everyday…or I have similar food that can be switched in it’s place(ie 1 cup white rice or 8 oz sweet potato have same kcal/macros pretty much)…
i set my surplus to a realistic amount of gaining, so i control the rate of weight gain…this is based on your training level(beginner vs advanced)…
I also prefer lower meal frequency like 4 really large meals a day vs 6…I think that helps with hunger…

Thanks dude, you’ve given me a bit too think about.

If you’re always dieting, your body is begging for food/nutrients. When I was on the AD, if I’d eat a pint of ice cream, I’d actually look BETTER the next day b/c my body would suck up those nutrients. When dieting down/cutting, your body is all out of whack, and honestly, anything goes. That’s why people refer to cutting as a “mental game.” [/quote]
Cool story, bro! Maybe try actually reading the OP before you post again. In the meantime, I nominate this post for biggest jackass post of 2011 (so far).
There’s a hyoooooge difference between “begging for nutrients” and pulling in 11,000 kcal. Unless you’re Michael Phelps, this is a bigger problem than a little bit of hunger while on a cut. Before anything else, I would take this one up with a doctor, so that you can, at the very least, rule out anything medical. Get some bloodwork…see how your thyroid is functioning, etc. There are some very big guys on this site and I would venture to say very few of them are venturing over 6 or 7k on their worst days.
If you determine there’s nothing abnormally wrong with you medically, then come back on here and we can try again.
P.S. If your body is ever “begging for nutrients” while cutting, you’re doing it wrong. Period. [/quote]
Just thought I’d mention that your avatar is fucking intoxicating; and for that…I thank you.
