i gained 10 pounds in 3 days!!

[Fatal Error]

i never used to place much emphasis on diet, just eat like a beast was my motto...my problem was, i only had three large meals a day...now i switched to 7-8 small meals a day (you basically eat to the point of boredom), got on the scales and BOOM, 9 pounds heavier...that olive oil drinking helped too(eurggh)

i have no doubt of course, that if i stopped this, i'd loose it just as quick, but i **** u not, i expect to hit 200 pounds on one or two weeks!

I gain 5kg in a week when i go from diet to bulking but dam dude it was all creatine and water weight...
Did you just start creatine ?

[Fatal Error]

ok, you beat me lol...no creatine honestly, nothing...just olive oil and peanut butter sandwich snacks every two hours! (anything i can get my hands on really). i also drink pints of milk, cheese on toast, beans (lol), hamburgers...i'm keeping it semi-healthy.

i did a calculation of the cals i consumed yesterday and it was in excess of 5000...maybe i should slow down.

[milkman]

9 pound from food only in 3 days seems like total bs..
u sure it isn't 8 pounds of fat ?
have you just come of a diet or are you already bulking...

[Fatal Error]

i know it sounds bs, but it's tru...i am actually worried as to where i put it on! only just started bulking properly...

[Adam101]

Maybe you just have to drop a load in the toilet and you haven't recently......LOL But Its true once I weighed myself before and after using the "facilities" and I dropped 2 pounds GEESE that was weird L8er

[damnJeff]

That 9 lbs must be all muscle!

Nah, probably just extra cellulite. Slow down. It's good to gain weight, but too much too quickly isn't too great.

[Tax]

maybe you just have 9lbs of food in you. Whens the last time you took the ****?

I'd say its a combination of many things:

a. food in your digestive system
b. extra stored glycogen
c. stored water due to the extra glycogen
d. subcutaneous water (this happens when you first start a bulking phase)
e. liquid in your bladder

There's no need to stop eating right, just realize that the majority of the weight you gained probably isnt muscle. I know when i go from a dieting cycle to a bulking phase, i gain about 10lbs in the first few weeks. Your weight will fluctuate alot too.

flucuate as in drop and gain randomly?

[BigBrother]

I did exactly the same thing
I gained 18 lbs in a month and a half
went from 223 to 241
I was huge, but I also put on a fair amount of fat and water
Probably half was muscle, half was fat.
Got a hell of a lot stronger (sqauts from 385x10 to 475x5)
I was awesome for bulking, but now Im fighting to get rid of the fat. Im sure the muscle will stay or be easy to get back because of muslce memory. I started with about 15% BF
Im sure if you do it with 10% BF or less, youll get more gains because your body will be ready to bulk because of muscle cell hydration & healthier more lubricated joints---->causing increased muscle leverage.

If you need to bulk then its AWESOME, but get ready for some serious cardio afterwards

I gained around 6 pounds in a day...woke up the morning 6 pounds lighter. Life sucks like that...

fatal,
Did you fill your pockets with all that olive oil and other stuff ? (hehe)
and
Did you have normal pottie drops over those 3 days? Or were you full of it? (hehe)

[amusclehead]

it must be from you doing concentration curling w/ 80pd. dumbells and doing 200pd skull-crushers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mickeys]

10 pounds of lean mass isnt possible

I'm sure half the weight you gained is water weight or "food weight" (the food currently in your stomach waiting to be digested

1 pound a week is about all that is possible as far as muscle weight gos, anything above that will be more fat than muscle

i just read where you said you eat nothing but olive oil, peanut butter, bread etc...

thats all primarily fat. never eat that stuff unless it's with a good ammount of protein, dont have it alone.

[blahblahblah]

Yea i'd say 1-2 pounds a week is normal ......

[Kutulus]

hahah go take a **** dude...

lol this is a funny thread...

he probably stuffed himself with food and drank a bunch of water

and kept doing this until his ass and blatter were about to xplode, then he steps on the scale oohhh wow, i gained 9 lbs! then he ****s and pisses, damn im back down....

Yes Gmav..

[Kutulus]

one time i took a **** and dropped 5 lbs

[user87745477315471972481]

Hey, the guy who said it's bad to have olive oil and bread and stuff, is wrong. Because those foods are good for FATS and CARBOHYDRATES, both extremely important(you might as well rank it as high as protien on the important scale) to add mass.
