What is an affordable way I can increase this diet to 3000 calories

Eat 20% more of everything

This is really inconvenient and not what I mean. 20% of half a cup is a pain to deal with for so many different foods.

>This meal plan represents approximate energy rexuirement for a very active female, age 17, who weighs 100 lb and is 5 ft tall.

Eat 50 percent more of everything, that should fix it.

Add peanuts until you hit your calorie limit

Also um stop drinking sugar water? Gatorade is retarded.

They are referring to an Olympic athlete. I don't have the funds for a 3000 calorie diet that isnt majority mcdonalds

This will tip the scale massively for fat

It is to replenish gylcogen stores right after a workout. Maybe you should know what you are talking about before you chastise it.

Unless you're training for several hours in a row or training twice a day and doing a fuckton of interval training or similar work, you're pretty much wasting calories with the Gatorade.

>Eating 8 times a day

How the fuck do people do this?

>>34897505
You are completely and utterly wrong. For anyone who is exercising for a sport, carbohydrates are required in a liquid form immediately after a workout for maximum adaptations.

>I don't have the funds for a 3000 calorie diet that isnt majority mcdonalds
Yes you do. Rice, beans, oats, chicken breast. Have fun.

>>34897512
Half the meals are gatorade or a handful of nuts or something

>>34897515
That was a typo actually. I meant I do not have the funds for a 3750 calorie diet, which is what he meant by a 50% increase in everything.

Chocolate milk is proven to be the best post workout drink. It's got the magic ratios of carbs, protein, and fats that your body needs to replenish. Or follow /fit/s recommendation of 8 SCOOPS C'MON!

Gatorade is trash. Drink pickle juice or pop some tums for your electrolytes. Save the calories for something more nutrient dense to add some wiggle room to your macros.

Or disregard me entirely, I don't really care.

>Or disregard me entirely

Don't worry, he will.

Aside from the chicken breast, the statement still applies.

>>34897514
If you are doing long cardio workout, like you train to be an endurance runner, for a marathon etc. Yes then u might need some.

If u lift weights: not at all.
If u go jogging for 30 minutes: not at all

The chicken breast is there for the protein. It has more protein per dollar than any fast food meal. If you don't care about protein, then just rice, beans, even buying frozen hamburgers might be cheaper than getting fast food burgers.

Protip: nonfat quark is dirt cheap and maybe even more calorie dense then clean cuts of meat. If u cant get quark try lowfat greek yoghourt. But watch out if they add sugar or other crap on the ingredients list. Its less protein dense per volume but similar protein density per calories

Btw yoghourt based sauces for rice and chicken dishes are amazing.just add some raw fresh garlic, some cucumber and a bit olive oil to nonfat yoghourt, its amazing. But beware you will stink quite a bit from raw garlic
