If you're some type of ecto-mesomorph (which I think you are from one of your threads) it is GOOD, because it is much easier to put down foods that taste good than it is to choke down "bodybuilding" foods....you can sit down, pound down your steaks and chicken or whatever protein like you're going to 'work'.....and once you get the protein you need, you can go to town on whatever you want, mashed potatoes, corn on the cob, fries, whatever junk carbs that are dense in calories etc etc.
You can also consider adding big shakes if appetite is a problem......get a good tasting, high calories gainer like muscle milk.....mix 2-3 scoops with whole milk, add in a bananam a ton of peanut butter, and a couple scoops of ice cream and you're good for probably 1200-1500 cals a shake, and anybody can always drink a good-tasting shake no mater how 'unhungry' they feel.
hey thanks for the advice.
a lot of times, hell most of the time, i always feel like i'm running out of energy and could use more calories. especially in the gym after getting through the first hour of o-lifting, i'm thinking, damn, i really wish i would have eaten more, i'm feel extremely hungry already.
then i think, damn, i did eat as much as i can. then i have plans of going home and slamming a huge 1k calorie plus meal, but my stomach gets full after 600 or so and I come up short again.
it's good to know you can increase appetite over time though. i'm def. going to try to each a little bit more each meal and develope a larger capacity for food.
thanks!
