What did you guys have for lunch today?

I'm on an IF diet and running Katana 3 (with great success) and just smashed my fast breaker. 2900 cals in one meal!


Post it up!

What on earth did you eat?

Jeez my biggest meal is usually around 1500

 

[bigbassturd]

I eat two monster meals in a day plus my post WO shakes.

With IF I have 8 hours to eat nearly 4200 cals so I have to force feed lol

 

[oxymoron]

Im proud as hell of myself... Had 2 chick breasts, brown rice and a cup or split pea soup sitting in the work fridge and a vendor tried to get me to go have lunch at this super tasty but greasy as hell home cooking place.
After a long pause and lots of internal debate I declined his offer. 2 of my colleagues were already walking to his car before I passed. Neither of those douche bags have exercised in 10 yrs and complain constantly about health problems.

Sent using the elitefitness app.

Oh shit just saw I hit a 2 instead of a 1 haha.

1900*

2900 is half the fridge lmao

Really your only eating two meals at around that calorie intake?

My breakfast was
3 cups oats
1 cup pineapple
2 tbsp all natty pb
12 egg whites
2 whole eggs
10 oz lean beef

And that came out to around 1770 cals.............but I also eat 5 to 6 times a day.

Other meals include
2 cups brown rice
1 tbsp olive oil
10 oz chicken breast

2 cups greek yogurt
1/4 cup almods
1/2 cup pineapple

Post work out shake
3 scoops whey
1 tbsp peanut butter
1 apple
1 cup pineapple

Post workout meal
10 egg whites
1-2 russet potatoes
1 cup rice
8 oz chicken
Salsa

Dinner ish
2 cups rice
10 oz white fish
1 cup brocoli.

And usually a protein shake in the middle of the night.

This is the only reason why I do not like the IF diet because It would be dam near impossible and would end up slowing me down to try to cram all this into a shorter window.

see this is what i want to know,

how do you guys eat all this and not gain weight? (fat)

I have a documented low T count. 69, and am seeking TRT from my endo.

I can't cut on more then 1800 a day, and i power lift 4 days a week.
I gain weight VERY easily, how the hell do you eat 4200 cal and not get fat? what cycles are letting oyu do this?

Does a high T count correstpond to being able to eat more food?
please help w/ serious answers. I keep getting the run arround from people on this, but for someone like me who lost 300lbs over 2 years and have since gained back 50 back to 200lbs, and now am into power lifting.

I WANT TO EAT MORE FOOD AND NOT GET FAT. its really really hard eating 1800cal every day of your life...

First, blood work. Figure out where your hormones are at. Low t, and high estrogen, will def lead to a cascade of health problems including weight gain

Eat quality food six times a day, small portions, high in protein.

Get your metabolism back to where in needs to be

All right this is gonna be my shot at it..............

So if you want to be able to eat more food and not get fat you have to either

Switch up your training or change the types of foods you are eating.

Power lifting is great for strength but not burning fat because you are not stimulating enough growth hormone release from lactic acid response in your muscles. This is what helps burn fat.

Power lifting is good for strengthening your tendons and fibers but it is not good for growing new tissue and burning fat.

To burn fat you have to eat the right amount of quality foods and focus on fat burning excercises. So if you have been power lifting and complaining that you are not able to eat more from excess fat gain then maybe it is time to change up your diet and lifting approach that works for your body and your goals.

Just my 2c
