Alrighty…so I’m trying to make some good gains without getting real fat.  Then, I plan on doing a little cutting…but I’ll burn that fat when I get there.  So far, I’ve been lifting 4 times a week (monday, tuesday, thursday, friday) and eating a heck of a lot of calories for me.  Just so you know, before I began bulking, I was lifting on and off, but never really saw any gains.  When I added up all the calories I was eating, it was a massive 1800 per day…that’s it!  NOW, I’m getting about 3500 per day.  My daily intake consists of the following throughout the day, with some variation each day:
Food            Calories/Carbs/Protein/Fat
milk&cereal        200    33    15    0.5
protein shake     130    3    24    1
snack bar-oats&honey    200    27    5    8
snack bar-pnut    190    14    7    12
turkey&roast beef sandwich    280    36    23    8
banana    200    51    2    1
cottage cheese    80    5    13    1.5
carrots    35    9    1    0
protein bar    190    17    20    6
post-w/o shake    750    123    50    6
w/16 oz milk    160    22    16    6
chicken    240    0    42    8
pasta    280    40    10    5
baked beans    160    33    6    1
almonds  170    5    6    15
casein protein    190    2    40    3
Totals:  3455 cals    420 g carbs   280 g protein   76 g fat
Like I said, this varies by day, but usually only my dinner is what is different.  I’m only about 3 weeks into my bulking phase.  I started at 155 lbs. and now I’m at 164 lbs.  I’m hoping by the end of May I can be around 175, then I can start cutting (which I’ll need some advice on later cause I’m not sure at all what to do then).  Thanks to all that’s keeping me in check.  I’ll take any comments/suggestions/praises/insults that you wanna throw at me.  Peace.
