Mom is worried I'm getting too big too fast...

[Metsplaya123]

I've been bulking since April when I was about 168 lbs. I now weigh 198. Mom is constantly saying I shouldn't be gaining that much weight that fast. I keep saying how its not too much. Anyone have this situation?

My mom say the same thing... Elliot hulse has a video about how parents want the best for you and don't want their kids to do anything that may make thm not fit in... They love you just find some facts and tell her what and why you are doing

Explain to her the concept of bulkingn and how it works. Explain you are only eating ~500 calories over what you should be which puts you at 1 lb a week 4 lbs a month ~30 pounds in 7 months you've put on. Tell her you're not just getting fat you're gaining muscle because that is your goal. Lie and say you've been getting compliments if need be. Say you're cutting soon ect. Bring up the fact that eating a little too much is better than starving yourself.

The question is.....is it fat gains or muscle mass gains?

Thanks bro, I actually did explain that and she thinks 1 lb a week is insane.

I think my fat gains have been average. My face has gotten meatier and my stomach has some fat but I only have been getting compliments, not disses.
