Calories

You have used 1373 out of your net daily budget of 3400 calories and have 2027 calories remaining. 37% of the calories are from fat, 37% from protein, 26% from carbs and 0% from alcohol.


How does everyone else manage it? What else should I bee adding to increase this?

Thanks for your help.

you could double the oats, add some cheese, salsa and avocado for breakfast. easy 400ish calories right there.

put the tuna on some toast with something else. make a meal out of it, not a snack.

add some more carbs to dinner like a potato (any kind), rice, pasta... something..

easy 1000 calories extra just with those couple adjustments

Add something you really like to eat.

[Lawtycoon]

Thanks. I'll try re-introducing some more carbs.

[Lawtycoon]

The main problem I have is actually making myself eat more. Eating more than I am just feels like I'm continously full.

I would just experiment with the food choices more. Go more towards things you really like to eat, even if they are not considered "clean". What you have to keep an eye on is enough protein, some fruit and veggies, and some healthy fat. Beyond that, eat what you like or at least more of it.

if your feeling really full then you could try making a shake. cup of milk + peanut butter + banana + whey = around 550-600 calories

[Lawtycoon]

Thanks guys.

May add some PB to the breakfast shake and start adding some carbs in the afternoon.

reps all round.

This

Or a weight gainer. Don't worry brah, your not alone

The problem OP is that you are counting way to much for being 200 pds, if you are trying to grow, counting is less, if even important

the bagels i get are 270 calories and 16g of protein. i can eat two, and throw some PEANUT BUTTER on there.
