Do shots with olive oil
Put olive oil on everything and take shots of it after every meal.

that sounds gross but ok
>>41952241
hmmm

wish i could drink milk. I recently, for some odd reason, became lactose intolerant. I miss cereal and whey in milk.
>>41952190
Eat more, as in a meal isn't a small salad
Last 4 meals for me
1: 3 wraps @ 450kcal each + some sweet potatoes
2: 4 eggs, 4 slices bacon, oatmeal, tea, melon, and a shake. This came to 1100kcal total
3: two sandwiches @ 250kcal each as a snack
4: a sub + whole grain chips, totaling 1400 kcal
So in 4 meals I managed 4000+kcals w/o soda. That's a light day
>>41952190
Try fairlife milk. No lactose, extra protein. Its good shit.
Not OP here, what is recommended for bulking if you have to exclude milk products? I assume scoops stand for whey powder which I can't take without becoming acne elemental
I see these olive oil shots advices, wouldn't that literally make you vomit?
Feels like its impossible to exceed my 2500 calories TDEE from healthy sources of food
>>41952363
Nuts, peanut butter, shit like that. Easy, cheap, healthy, calorie dense as FUCK
OP, what's your TDEE?
>>41952241
Do you feel like you're gaining weight around a specific area? I want to eat a surplus, but I 'm afraid that I will mostly get abdominal fat.

OP all you need to eat is: 8 eggs, 1.5qt milk, 500g sweet potato 3 times a day along with a two scoop whey+200g plain greek yogurt shake twice a day
>>41952435
mom no
eat sugary foods. God its easy to eat calories like that.
>>41952190
Its not about meals, its about calories
You can eat 6 meal every day but it doesnt do shit if those meals 400 calories each
>>41952427
Thanks man
>>41952363
buy a big plate of frosted brownies and tell me its hard to get over 2500 cal in one day
>>41952492
I have love handles, but thats about it.
You'll probably gain fat in the ab area, shit, you'll probably gain fat all over. IIRC its genetic and people put on fat in different places at different rates.
>tfw have a 9fl oz whole milk shake with 1 scoop cinamon danish and 100g sesame seeds chilling in the fridge right now
>>41952363
Brah I shit you not before I worked out a proper diet I was mixing 4 tbsp olive oil with a bit of water and just downing it before bed every night.
My shits were pretty greasy but it wasn't too bad.
Just make sure to drizzle whatever you cook with a generous amount of olive oil. Seriously, even if you're just cooking, use olive oil and scrape everything out of the pan and onto the plate/into the container. People really underestimate how many calories olive oil can add to meals.
Whole pasta is okay but actually not as good as it seems (150g dry has 550 kcal, complex carbs and protons, but that will double in weight while cooking and be a complete bitch to fit inside your stomach alongside everything else you'd put in the meal).
As this anon said, >>41952427, use nuts and/or seeds.
Fun fact: Peanut butter has better absorption than eating nuts/seeds normally. The more you chew seeds/nuts the more you'll get out of them.
I ate 14 hot wings with fries than chugged a protein shake. I have this heavy feeling in my chest. What do I do?
Just drink a few glasses of milk.
eat more
>>41952190
Count them. COUNT THEM! Count the FUCKING CALORIES!! WHAT YOU CONSIDER A MEAL IS NOTHING LIKE WHAT A BIG BUFF DUDE CONSIDERS A MEAL!
>>41952290
Cook food in olive oil
>>41952190
peanuts, milk, scoops and normal meals, thats all you need
>eating 5 meals a day
>not gaining weight
Eat more you piece of shit, eating a fucking lettuce sandwich doesn't count as a meal
>>41953350
>eating two dozen eggs over the course of a day
Never going to make it.
I will never understand how people actually have difficulty gaining weight.
>>41952297
Same here, bro. I've been a big milk drinker my whole life and only suddenly became lactose intolerant. Sucks
Peanut butter, mayonnaise, cheese, etc... On everything.
