Thread: Bulking is fun

1. You are what you eat. Youre young but you still go through processing the crap you eat when you could be using that energy and nutritional resources to help move toward your goals instead of just digestion and processing.

2. What are your goals?
3. You can't expect to just gain and gain without reaching a plateau. Otherwise in a year or two we'd all be swollen beyond belief.
4. Only you will know when you will get fat.
5. You are what you eat....again

I am what I eat?

So you're telling me I'm a large chicken teriyaki sandwhich from Penn Station with a large fresh cut fry?

Caloric overconsumption is the primary cause of weight gain. Food quality is largely irrelevant.

People should tattoo this rule on their forearms. They don't seem to remember otherwise.

Thats what I was looking for, thank you.

Well hell, as long as youre getting a surplus! Hey eat up. Go rent Supersize me while you eat that shit too! Its an awesome movie. Throw in some lard and an extra scoop of transfat while youre at it. Hit kfc and pizza hut like the pros do. Fuck it! I, on the other hand, usually.....USUALLY like to go for efficiency. This would deal with the" Largely" part of Witchblades post, as I routinely dine at Krispi Kreme myself so I am by no means throwing stones. But I would never tell a client to eat that shit so I wouldnt tell you either.

Eat how you want just remember things like your liver and colon, etc. ....And yes, you are a chicken, obviously. buck buck ...buckaaaack

i just want to point out that eating out is more expensive than shopping at the grocery store...

this argument is not convincing to me

I did it for a week because I was stubborn with the way my bulk had been going. That is all.

im just confused at how you could possibly be spending 100 a week at the grocery store

You can do anything if you put your mind to it! Or convince yourself of something.

I love Whole Foods and would go there twice a week if it didn't cost an arm and a leg. I could drop a hunnit in there easily. I have a Sams card for the bulk stuff.

It's not like I go every Sunday and buy the exact same things every time. Usually I'm spending about $150 dollars and that'll last me anywhere from ten days to two weeks.

Think about it...

- (3) 1 lb packs of 4% fat ground sirloin runs me like $20 dollars
- (2) 18 packs of large eggs $5 dollars
- (3) 1 lb packages of chicken tenderloins $15 dollars
- (5) packages of tuna $5 dollars

Proteins = roughly $45 dollars per visit

It's about $100 dollars total rounding out my carbs/fats with breads, pastas, oats, etc. and then roughly another $50 dollars on fruits and veggies.

Going to Subway twice per day at $5 a pop would cost less than me going to the grocery store. Couple that with preparation time (something I usually despise) and it makes sense to eat out when I've got a week left until I go home for Winter Break.

Wouldn't it be nice to be able to afford Whole Foods on a regular basis

im not going to argue the point that eating out is more expensive...

even if your eating 2 $5 footlongs a day... you still need other nutrition elsewhere on top of that $11 a day

Dude, you need to learn how to shop.

Costco - 7.5 dozen eggs 10$
Costco - 5lbs oats 6$
Costco - 88% lean ground beef 2.99$/lb
Costco - Salmon 3.85$/lb
Stop and Shop - 1.79$/lb chicken

Rice is dirt cheap no matter where you go. The amount you're spending on food is absurd, there is no reason for it to be so high.

they have organic eggs for 3 bucks for a dozen and a half as well.

50 buck membership for hundreds of dollars of savings is win

7.5 dozen eggs for $10????? As in 90 eggs?

Those are not organic.

True enough, but I don't need organic when I'm only using them for egg whites. I separately buy omega 3 fortified eggs for use as whole eggs.

Organic isnt everything, I eat large free range eggs, dont see the point in eating everything organic, I know there are pesticides etc but surely they dont do that much harm.

You know what 'free range' means? The chickens are disciplined to stay inside the first few weeks. Then a hatch is built into the hen, one the chickens are unaware of. This hatch provides 'free range access'.

Organic means a lot, if it comes from a certified label. In fact, in bodybuilding quantities it can make the difference between healthy and unhealthy.

Good plan, but if you use organic whites (which you are eating the most of) and use organic omega 3 eggs then you are in business dude.

I figure since Im eating 6 or 7 eggs every day I may as well make sure its legit

True, but that difference is for the most part in the yolk. Using cheap eggs for the whites only just makes sense and pay a premium only for the whole eggs that you use.

I can understand where youre coming from on this, but erring on the side of caution seems to be the best bet IMO, youre only saving yourself about 20 bucks a month (give or take) if you eat six of them a day.

I eat 12 egg whites/day and 2 whole eggs at the moment. It saves about 300$/year shopping the way I do on eggs alone.

I don't eat that many eggs at the moment. I usually get egglands best, but I normally eat egg beaters . Expensive though.

been cutting for the past few weeks... going to start bulking in jan... can't wait to eat again...

that offsets the cost of gym membership
