Bulking and eating disorders

[Vieope]

Don´t you think that a long bulking phase may develop some eating disorder?

Sometimes I feel that I can consume 6000 calories with one bite.

I think a long "unclean" bulking phase could. That's how I put some of my weight back on and now it's hard to go back to eating as clean as I was used to.

I agree with rock, eating unclean for a long time could create an eating disorder. I have been off the gym for the past ~3 weeks (ill/injury) . i have begun to realise that it is quite a task to eat clean (e.g. boiled yam+boiled veggies+tuna), something that didnt bother me much when i was going to the gym regularly.

You can develop an eating disorder whether you are bulking, cutting or maintaining.

An eating disorder is about the thought processes/obessions and compulsions/actions surrounding foods and eating (and situations in which you eat) rather than how much you actually eat.

I don´t think there is a difference. Healthy or unhealthy.

Isn´t there physiological changes due to overeating and not eating enough?

If i eat the same food item consecutively, i get sick of it. Which is why i use different sources for protein throughout the day.

That would work, but I'm too lazy to cook that many different things LOL.

Why?

Is it wierd that i've eaten cottage cheese and tuna the last 6 years straight?

I meant eating the same thing meal after meal after meal... surely you have been eating CC and Tuna meal after meal after meal for 6 years.

Presently in a day my protein comes from:
meal#1 = protein powder
meal #2 = chicken (prepared dish)
meal#3 = deli sliced beef (sometimes chicken)
meal#4 = tuna
meal#5 = CC

Now, if i had chicken for most or all of those meals, i would surely be sick of it in a few days!

I only actually cook for ONE of my meals.
