How the hell do i eat 3,000 cal a day?

I know cutting is hard but you can make it!

Drink your calories. Shakes, smoothies, etc.

Also, be liberal about using spreads like peanut butter, they have a fuckton of calories.

>roll through the mcdonalds drive through
>order 6 (six) mcdoubles
>shit will cost you like 5 bucks
>should be about 2,400 (2.4k) calories

Not OP here, but are weight gainer supplements a good idea? 650 cals, about 80g carbs and 50g protein per scoop.
I can manage nearly 3k a day, when I cant i drink a shake that has nearly 2k cals .
Is that a bad thing ?

>>42393377
Get a bag of sunflower seeds. I could snack that whole pack in under and hour and it would be over 3k.

You faggots that complain about not being able to gain weight are the worst..

>eat trail mix
>eat pbj sandwiches w cup of milk
>protein shakes
>add sources of fat to dishes(avocados, cheese)

Whats your height and weight OP? be honest

>>42393501
Weight gainers are decent in the sense that its a convenient way to get your calories in, but you could literally make a shake with the same macros for much cheaper by adding 2 scoops of whey, sugar, oats, pb, and a banana. Youll save money as well considering that most 12 pound bags of gainer only have like 15-20 servings If you want to get a gainer because you like a certain flavor, and or like the convenience of it then go ahead. They all taste like liquid ice cream,

>>42393377
Nuts, seeds, pasta, cheese, olive oil, cereal, bread.

im 6'0 230, im constantly hungry all day, i intermittent fast, and its STILL a struggle to stay under 2500 calories. You skellingtons need to shut the fuck up and drink your milk, and eat your god damn ice cream

I drink a jug of milk and eat half a block of cheese at bed time. Boom, 1500 calories. Easy.

>>42393377
pasta and cheese and meatballs and sauce

>>42393501
Weight gainers are stupid. Just be eating all the time. You're going to have to force yourself to eat for a bit you'll get used to it. I used to have trouble with 2.5k and now I can do 3.5k+ no problem.

>>42393431

I'm lean bulking on 3500-3600 and it's easy as fuck, no idea what you guys are on about. Usual day:
Breakfast : Either oatmeal& fried eggs, or maybe some protein pancakes (easy 800-900kcal either).
Lunch: About 800-1200 kcal, depends what I make, some protein source (fish/meat etc) & some carb source (pasta/rice/potatoes) and veggies, some sauce or condiment, depending on what fits with the food.

At this point of the day I'm usually already at around 1800-2000 kcal.

Before gym: A protein bar usually, about 200kcal

After gym: Protein shake, whey with milk, around 300kcal.

Now I'm around like 2300-2600.

Dinner: Whatever it may be for the day, some protein source carb source condiment etc etc, similar to lunch.

By now, I'm already around, at the very least, 3000 kcal. Then 2-3 hours after dinner, just have whatever to fill out the remaining calories (Usually cottage cheese/bread with peanut butter, etc). And depending on if I had a more calorically dense food for lunch, or dinner, I may not even have to eat anything after dinner.

It's literally easy as fuck skellies.

>he actually thinks that he burns 1000 extra calories a day by lifting for an hour

>>42394383
Doubt it. Post your fat body with a time stamp

@42394381
>he thinks everyone works an office job
Your activity level isn't determined solely by your workouts

>>42394381
TDEE calculators in general assume you are a 'standard person', which today means you don't work out at all, or you are DYEL as fuck, either way meaning you have very little muscle mass. While an untrained male at 6' and 200 lbs may have his TDEE at 2300, it's because he has a high body fat % and very little muscle mass. In an actually fit 6' 200lb male, a larger % of those 200lbs is made up of muscle mass, and not fat. And would you have it, muscles burn more calories than fat tissue! Who would have thought.

ALWAYS underestimate your TDEE, specifically when it comes to exercising. Its relatively hard to account for the amount of calories youre burning. Also, as far as it relates to cutting, if you underestimate calories burned, then youll notice significantly faster results if your diet is on point.

>>42394396

>>42394446
You seriously have to be fucking trolling at this point you sad skelly dyel cunt. Let me try to get this into your head for the last time. Try to imagine this, ok ? A 6' 200lb male, who is unfit, works an office job, is sedentary most of the day, when he gets home he spends more time in the couch or at the computer. He has barely any muscle mass, as he hasn't laid a finger in the gym. His bodyfat is probably at least 20+. He could maintain on 2300 calories. Now imagine another 6' 200lb male, who has worked out regularly at the gym for about two years and eats healthy. He has about 20lbs more muscle mass on him than the former male. THIS MUSCLE MASS ITSELF, WILL BURN CALORIES TO TRY TO MAINTAIN ITSELF, EVEN IF HE DOESN'T FUCKING WORK OUT THAT DAY. MUSCLE TISSUE BURNS MORE CALORIES THAN FAT TISSUE. This, along with the fact that he also lifts, which burns extra calories, maybe 300 per session. Do you get it now, you disguisting dyel cunt?

>>42394319
heavy refers to caloric expenditure, not how much you lift. you'd have to be an athlete involved in explosive cardiovascular activities to fall into what they mean by 'heavy exercise'. That website grossly inflates calorie consumption for all activity levels.

If you spend money on weight gainers I will personally hunt you down and forcibly sodomize you.
There is no point in using them when they A) taste like shit B) are fucking expensive C) offer nothing that you can't get through whole foods and D) cause a decent amount of people to get the shits so you're not even really absorbing the over priced calories that you're purchasing.

Learn how to cook, for the cost of a day's worth of "mass gainer" you can get multiple days worth of pork/beef, several boxes of pasta/ a bag of rice or potatoes, frozen green vegetables, and whole milk/chocolate milk. Not only will this be cheaper and easier on your digestive system, but it will taste better and actually give you micronutrients which you do need to a degree.
There's a good reason why no one who is a successful bodybuilder/physique competitor/power lifter/ professional strong man uses a mass gainer. It's because they're over priced trash.

>>42395293
Youre right, but youre also overthinking it. Its a quick, convenient way to get an extra 800-1000 cals a day. Also, most taste fucking delicious since theyre loaded with carbs and sugar.

Are you sticking to it everyday? You can't do that every other day then eat 1000 cals another day.

count the cals as well and make sure you're hitting your goal.

>>42395401
eat more calorie dense meat and up the portion sizes of your meat for one. You'd be getting much more calories if you were just eating beef/pork instead of chicken breast/fish for one.
I'd also drop the eggs and up the relatively simple carbs significantly, but that's because eggs make me full as fuck.
Also make sure that you're getting at least a pound and a half of meat a day, which will generally work out to ~120-140 grams of protein.

>>42395401
Toss some oats in for breakfast, add some nuts in as a snack between breakfast and lunch and make sure your hitting roughly 1 cup for your rice/pasta/oats.

here's your breakfast

take two slices of toast
add 4 fried sausages
a slab of gammon
a fried egg
and then melt some cheddar over before topping with another slice of toast

eat two of these for breakfast for a great whack of calories and bulking macros that taste great
