obviously, add in more calories if you haven't seen any changes. I would drop the protein and add more fats dude. go for around 200-250g protein and the rest fat

>>42109855
>add in more calories

That's the thing, I literally don't have time or the stomach for more food

>>42109829
There are two possibilities.
1.) You are, in fact, NOT eating like that every day, and have not been for the past few months.
2.) You are burning off all your extra calories.

Should be easy to figure out which one is more likely.

>>42109829
I call bullshit on that being nearly 4000 calories. That and you eat a lot of fiber calories, you're shitting your gainz out.

>>42109829
don't eat candy and ice cream. you're not a child. there's more to nutrition than calories and macronutrients. eat big boy food

>>42109999
I do eat like this everyday.

I also work 10 hours a day doing pretty physical labor. But I feel like I still should be eating enough regardless.

That's hardly even 100g of protein, show us your maths

>>42109829
>>42110009
Yeah, you're full of shit. Your picture is like 2600 calories at best.

>>42110009
Fuuuck what has fiber in it

>>42109829
>>42109951
Drink a gallon of chocolate milk along with this then.

I seriously doubt you have absolutely no more room in your stomach. Eat until it hurts. I can eat two digiorno pizzas and a tub of ice cream over the course of a few hours. It doesn't feel great at the end, but I can still do it. That's like 5000 calories.

>>42109829
drink a protein shake with EVERY meal. finish eating first, then dump the shake on top. former skelly here, you and I both know that chugging liquids is 1000% easier than eating when already full. you need to just eat an obscenely high amount of calories every single day. it's not complicated.

>>42110070
MFP is not 100% accurate in all foods. I honestly don't see how this could be 4k calories.

>2 eggs, 2 toast, nutella, OJ
>510

>red potatoes, green beans, chicken breast
>350

>ditto
>350

>apple and nutty bars
>360

>mystery shake
>???

>broccoli, brown rice, chicken
>400

That's 2,470 not including your shake, and I was being pretty generous.

No fucking way. An entire fuxking chicken doesn't have that much.

>>42110121
>>42110159
3 eggs actually also PB.
Shake is half a banana, PB, milk, whey protein
I can try another counter but are people trying to tell me this ISN'T a lot of food? Idk what else to eat

>>42109951
how many days a week do you excercise?

>>42110191
Post your fucking MFP diary you goddamn dipshit.

>>42109829
Yeah, you maybe ate like this the day you were real motivated and took these dumbass pics

But, the truth is you don't eat anywhere close to this everyday. I don't know what it is about skinny people on the internet lying and trying to somehow think that if they tell people they ate more, they really did eat that food they typed out. It just doesn't work that way and it never will.

The fact that you posted this thread and are hoping for some "secret eating trick" to gain weight is enough said.

>>42110054
Potatoes
Bread
Green Beans
Apple
That Candied Wafer
Broccoli
Rice

The greatest amounts of fiber can be found in your greens and grains you consume, like that breading on the meat, toast and fruits.

I used to eat ~3,800 calories, not to gain weight but to walk to work, work 10 hours and then walk home. Boy did I shit like a mother fucker as it was basically 10 cups of cooked rice and one to two pounds of hamburger and sausage a day. That and whatever I ate for lunch.

>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_dynamic_action
>https://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/ask-the-macro-manager-what-is-thermic-effect.html

>TLDR: Food takes energy to diges
>Protein takes ~25%, Carbs ~10%, Fat ~3%
>100 kcal of Protein only gives 75 kcal of energy, 100 kcal of Carbs nets 90, 100 kcal of Fat nets 97

Your diet nets 3800 - 520 = 3280 kcal after calculating the TE (Thermic Effect) of your food

Lets assume that you leave no scraps on your plate and they're left cleaner than when you got them out of the dishwasher post eating:

>http://scoobysworkshop.com/accurate-calorie-calculator

I assume you're a 25-year-old male around 15% body fat. Averaging the Cunningham and Katch methods puts your BMR at ~1800.

>http://scoobysworkshop.com/calories-burned/

These are my base assumptions:
>6 Hours spent Sleeping - 0 kcal
>4 Hours spent Standing, fidgeting (includes showers, walking, cooking, etc.) - 280 kcal
>8 Hours spent Sitting - 210 kcal
>2 Hours spent Lying Quietly - 10 kcal
>1 Hour spent Resistance Training, Slow - 310 kcal
>2 Hours spent Sitting, fidgeting - 130 kcal
>1 Hour spent Jerking It - 75

Total = ~2850 - 3280 = +430

You're a beginner, so you're likely gaining 2 lbs of muscle/month. A pound of muscle requires 2500 kcal of energy expenditure to be built. 2 lbs = 5000 kcal / 30 days = 170 kcal

+430 - 170 = 250 kcal

All of this is of course assuming that you're actually measuring your food and each ingredient down to the gram and are also consuming all of it and not leaving 5-10% on the plate like this:

>>42109829
Excluding the shake, I'm guessing that is about 2800 calories. You probably shat out most of that 1,000 calorie shake because it was too much for your body to absorb at once.

>>42110285
No, I'm a former skinny person like yourself who actually worked and force fed myself and didn't ask the internet why I'm not gaining weight. Then when everyone tells you the truth (you're not eating what you're telling us) you get all defensive. You want us to tell you you're some special science miracle snowflake who's body just denies half the calories you eat or something.

Honestly kinda cringeworthy that you say you ate 3800 calories a day for 60-90 days straight and didn't gain a single pound. The reality is just that it's probably more like 1600 calories for 14 days

>>42110454
There's no way you ate almost 1000 Cal of chicken breast.

>>42110454
>4 CUPS of chicken
It's way way closer to 4oz than 4 cups, unless you're telling me you eat upwards of 32oz of chicken a day which is nearly a full bird.

>>42110454
Like >>42110373 said, weigh your food. No one who is serious about nutrition measures food in volume units, let alone meat.
You do not have 4 cups of chicken here >>42109829.

>>42110454
>breakfast
Those pieces of toast probably aren't 100 calories a piece. They look pretty small. That doesn't look like 2 tablespoons of peanut butter, and it looks like iced coffee not orange juice

>lunch

924 calories of plain chicken breast is about 2lbs worth. 650 calories of potato is like 3 potatoes. Both of those tupperware combined don't look like 2lbs of chicken and 3 potatoes.

>dinner

No fucking way that's 2 cups of rice.

There's at least 1000 calories right there you overcounted. You're probably running some high volume routine so that you don't lose your abs, so 2800 sounds about right for maintenance.

Eat fattier meat. Pork loin, chicken thighs with the skin, etc. Measure your carbs so that you get the amount you think you are.

this is why this board sucks, people like OP probably makes threads and gives out advice when they are clearly just dumb as fuck

>>42110454

brainlets, when will they learn

Why dont people realize that is literally not enough?

Youre working out, your metabolism is working, a pound is around 3500 calories. You are literally maintaining. Eat more you dense fuck

>>42109951
How is that even possible? Walk around with a chocolate bar. It isnt that hard to be a fat fuck

>>42110454
LOL

>>42110705
3,800 calories is more than enough i've been bulking on 3,000 and I'm taller and heavier than OP

lifting weights does not burn loads of fat either.

OP is not eating all of that food, and he's guessing the amount instead of measuring.

>>42110454
Holy shit i've never seen someone over count calories this badly, you're a danger to yourself and the public

Holy shit this thread is great how does one fuck up so badly?

I counted 2725 calories just by visually estimating. Your ability to measure without a food scale is shit. Also, measure your shit before it's cooked - the amount of water lost during cooking is too variable and obviously affects the amount you'll measure. Also, you probably leave tons of food scraps on your plate which is another 5% of the calories lost.

>>42110928

Eat more you incompetent nigger.

>>42110986
clearly OP needs to weigh and log his food. Can't tell the difference between 4 cups and 4 oz of chicken.

don't be retarded there are many reasons to log your food fatass

Nigger you didn't even scan the brands of things you were using, you didn't weigh or measure anything properly and then threw out macro numbers like 329g of preoteins, wtf? Why the fuck are you eating broccoli and apples and chicken if you are trying to gain weight? Add some beef/bacon/gomad and sub in spinach for greens its less filling and still gives good micros.

>>42109829

LOOOOOL your shit is all fucked up

>>42109951

Ok so MFP sucks, I get that. So I'm eating maybe 3,000 calories.

What else can I eat to get another 1,000 calories??

>>42113642
eat higher fat meat instead of chicken
eat veggies that aren't as filling
drink milk and eat oats

>>42109829
Amount of food in that picture is literally pathetic. It is calorie dense but not enough volume.

>>42110454
> almost 1000 cal of chicken breast

Bro... lol

>>42110040
and there it is. you're burning the calories so you need to eat more or burn less if you want to gain weight.

>>42110986
well you've never been fat and try to loose it, if it helps him then that is what he needs to do

Do what I did.

Go to bread store and find your favorite freshly baked bread. Buy like five loaves. Then go home and tear a chunk off. Not cut a slice. Tear a chunk. Then cover it with butter and honey so it is even more delicious. Next, ear that shit. I gained like twenty five pounds in about two months doing this. In fact I gained so much I am now having to cut and try to lose weight. Lol.

>>42109951
Put more olive oil with your food.
Seriously
A tablespoon of olive oil has 120 calories.
Fry the toast in the olive oil in the morning after the eggs.
another with the rice, and then the meat dish.
And anwhere you cook stuff..
Hell, some olive oil comes withnice smokey/spicey flavours that are really nice and you'd probably start only needing to have a bit of that onn savorie biscuits and stuff (like saltines/saladas). Yeah.
You only realy need to up your calorie intake and that would be the easiest way

>>42109829
that's like ~2500 calories right there, there is literally no fucking way in hell that's 4k. Zero chances. I eat 3k a day and I eat more than that

>>42109829
Why aren't the potatoes mashed with butter and cream? Are you even trying?

>>42114592
They have olive oil on them

OP, I started at about 150-160 and am about 220 now. My day to day foods vary but everyday I east the following staples:
-2 pb sandwiches
-bulking shake (500ml milk, 1/2 cup oats and 4 eggs)
-17 cashews
-4 weetbix

And these are all measured/standard weights so no changes in quantity or cals
Thats 1790 cals. Ill post the MFP screenshot next post

>>42110191

pls can't be real tea

Don't use MFP. Set up an excel spreadsheet. Find your store's website and look up the actual nutrition in the products.

Additionally, what's your lifestyle like? Some guy was insisting he was eating at a caloric excess at 3200 kcal. I asked him how active he was. He said he walked an average of 40k steps a day at work, according to his fitbit.

I pointed out that the average step of an adult human is 30 inches. That translates into just under 19 miles a day, in addition to the gym. He needed to eat a LOT more.

>>42109829
what's the point of eating 6 times a day if you have child portions each time.
that 9am and 12am meals litteraly have 1 potatoe.
I call bullshit in this being 3,800 kcal.
I'm cuting on 2,300kcal and eyeballing it I eat as much if not more than your pics.
You should be eating way more if you are working a physical job.
Add two more eggs and some meat to your brekfast, add a serving of rice to both your lunches. double every portion on your dinner plate. Ditch Nutella, OJ and ice-cream, replace with cheese, real fruit and cottage/icelandic cheese. carry a bag of nuts to nibble on throughout the day

>>42115333
who the fuck walks 19 miles at work? what was his profession? janitor of the worlds longest hallway?

>>42109829
Mate i was eating more than that going through fucking CHEMO and i was losing weight. Up your intake faggot.

If you're struggling for calories, have fucking milkshakes, like at the end of every meal, even if it takes 30 min to drink it. Itll up your weight quicksmart.
