I know i was thinking thats an awful lot of food,I'm woking with this guy and he told me i need to get that much that i need to constantly try and have my insulin jacked for anabolism of course,i try to get 100 carbs a meal,50 grams protien and about 200 cal from healthy fat,man i'm so fuckin sick of eating

theres noway that is u need that many calories to maintain your current body weight. most guys eat 5000cals a day to gain mass not maintain, unless your some 600lbs marathon runner

Well right now i'm staying about 205 to 210 on about 4800 cal and it's been that for about4-6weeks,I'm gonna try and knock it down some as of I'm sick of so much brown rice and oats

rule of thumb... Bodyweight x 10-12= maintenance calories

In your case it would be: 2050-2460 cals
