When you guys bulk, after so many weeks, do you feel like it gets hard to eat extra calories after awhile cause you seem to not have the same appetite? Its like my body is regulating my calorie intake and is saying enough is enough and killing my appetite.
I go through this every winter bulk. I was able to eat well for about 8 weeks where I was seeing a weight gain and strength gain every single week. And then so far this entire Dec, I've noticed that my body just doenst' have the same appetite. I really have to force myself to eat more and eat calorie dense foods like McDonalds to get extra calories to try to maintain bulking. My bodyweight hasn't really moved much in the past few weeks.
I thought it was maybe food not passing through cause not enough fiber, so I started drinking psyllium powder a couple times a day to add extra fiber. And I'm so regular now and all floaters too (fun fact...floaters mean you have enough fiber cause the fiber makes your stool not as dense...sinkers have less fiber in them and are less dense). But I still have to sometimes force myself to eat if I want to eat over maintenance calorie level.
maybe you just have good metabolism like me. My 3 year bulk I was eating at least 4-6 times a day and I maintained staying 161-163. I ate absolute crap. Greasy greasy chinese food, McDonalds, Papa John's, street food, etc.
BTW Welcome to the thread. For new members such as yourself, please post pics of hut mom, sister, aunts and in Evo's case CDGurl's that maybe part of your family.

Yup work overtime without overtime pay because 2 managed to piss me off by smoking in the office again.
Don't think you're getting Boss of the Year for 2012
I haven't gotten paid for overtime since working as a student in college. Dem salary positions.

Sup again Asian bros. I've been MIA again. I just wanted to stop by and wish you all a Happy Holiday.
Also, I made top 5 for the Bodyspace spokesmodel competition. Finals will be next month at the LA Fit expo. Thank you again for all your support.
Top 5?!?!?! Wow, that's awesome! Good luck and kill it at the expo! Maybe some southern CA brahs will come out and catch it.
Happy holidays to you and your family!

Guys, I'm on a plane headed back to SF from Honolulu. Barely worked out and ate foie gras, ducks, kalbi, and tons of other fatty foods. Feels good man!
But now it is time to start contest prep June/July contests, here I come! New video series coming up
Merry Christmas, Happy New World and Happy New Year To ALL of YOU bros out there...
Hey Uncle Evo.. How's things man? Bulking or Cutting eh? It has been awhile since last visited.. Kinda bz these days with "collection".. Not really as ripped as in June 6.2% but look ripper now even at 7.5%.
So I've started doing forced negatives once a week when I do my full body exercises and I am almost positive I'm getting stronger by doing it. Though I can only do like 6-8 reps and only 2 sets doing them or else my angus gets peppered.
