add more to my diet that I have so far.

Prego Sauce.

Lunch

I know its not healthy but, its
either that or Salad, and, if I eat Salad,
my stomach will burn. Its like teasing my Stomach.

Dinner
Spaggetti with Sausage, and Prego Sauce

Snack:
Cream Of Wheat or Oatmeal

Snack #2:
5 Baked Potatoes or 5 bowls of Cocoa Puffs and/or Honey Nut Cheerios.

Liquids: Milk, Water.

So thats; (On A Daily Basis)

One Box of Spaggetti
One Package of Hillshire Farms Sausage
Two Jars of Prego
Mcdonalds

Half Gallon of Milk

This is 5 days out of the week. On the Weekends I'll eat a whole chicken, white

wow, no offense but that diet is really unhealthy

if want want to put on weight and grow a little muscle the best way to do it is not just to eat fattening or carb-loaded foods.

The key for size gains is protein. Although you have plenty of carbs, you probably don't have enough protein in your diet. If I were you I would eat plenty of meat, milk is good, and perhaps protein bars or shakes.

But I would definately cut the McDonalds and all that spaghetti out, and replace it with a more variety of wholesome foods.

you have a high metabolism, dont you. it sounds like it since you like spaghetti so much. spaghetti is fine, but you don't need to have it as often. Try breads or cereals for carbs, and just get around 1-1.5 lbs of protein per body weight, and also:

you will be a lot better off if you put on the weight slowly and only add an excess of a few hundred calories to your daily diet. This will ensure that you are packing on muscle instead of fat.

Thanks P60 For Your Comments!

Spagehtti is the only thing that fills me up so, I really don't think it would be wise for me to eat less speghetti unless you can
suggest something that can do the job. (Fill
my stomach)

I eat Oatmeal or Cream a Wheat on a daily
basis (Its really one of my late night snacks

)

A half gallon of milk a day is not enough?

How about Meatloaf? Or Home made Hamburgers?
that usually holds me down for a while.

Oh, I not only have a High Metabolism, I'm
Very Hyper.

LOL!!! Everytime I type, I have to walk around the house to release my energy. I can't stand in one place too long without
moving around.


Thanks!

LOL! I used to LOVE Cocoa Puffs! When I was 8! Dude, you seriously need to work on your diet.

 

[Distortion]

whats the best thing that I can have for lunch? I'm in highschool so i can't make alot of stuff. Usually i have a turkey sandwich w/ some cheese & mustard. If i don't have a sandwich i will sometimes just eat a protein bar but it makes me really hungry.. any suggestions?

 

[Arnold]

What is your goal?

You diet is very high in carbs and fat, very low in protein. Basically, it's pretty unhealthy all the way around!

It's not an ideal diet for bodybuilding or losing weight, so I guess we need to know what you're trying to accomplish.

got muscle?

How can you stomach that for breakfast first thing in the morning??

 

[EarWax]

5 baked potatoes for dinner?

Well, for one thing, try counting calories:
Start a journal of what you are eating every day. Calories, fat grams, protein grams, and carb grams. If you are gaining weight go over your metabolic rate in calories. If you are losing weight, go under your metabolic rate. If you are insane, go talk to Large, he enjoys that.

Weight lift and do some cardio exercise. Eat less quarter pounders, eat some turkey sandwiches from subway instead (if you can't make them yourself).

"Oh let me tell you a story bout a member called Omnifex, poor bodybuilder always kept his body fed, then one day he was eating 5 baked potatoes, then he exploded like a oil well.. fat that is... brown lipoids..."
(ok, that was pathetic)

------------------
Lift well! But don't forget to put it down afterwards.

 

[SKINSFAN]

I will tell you my diet which has been good to me.
breakfast: blend 1c. o.j., 4 tbs. flax seed, 8oz. vanilla yogurt and 2 scoops of vanilla whey.
snack: 1c. instant oatmeal
lunch: healthy choice meal
snack: apple
dinner: a lean meat, some form of green veggie and a starch.
after workout: chocolate mrp with a banana.
snack: tuna sandwich

 

[Quadzilla]

I don't eat candy, so that would be my
substitute. (Coca Puffs or Honey Nut
Cheerios)


PRINCE

My goal is to Gain Weight. I'm not going
for the Body Builder physique, Just a well toned machine.


Ginni

I have to eat heavey in the morning due to
being very hyper and having a very fast
metabolism. Its either that, or Six French
Toast.


EARWAX

5 Baked potatoes OR 5 bowls of cereal
as a snack. (Late Night) I'll try to slow down on the Quarter Pounders. Thanks for
the advice. And the joke

SKINFAN

If I ate that, my body would shutdown. Thats not enough for this bottomless pit. Thanks for your input!


QUADZILLA

5 Baked Potatoes, or 5 bowls of cereal
is a snack. Can you suggest something better?
Thanks

That's cool, but that diet is NOT going to make you look like a "well toned machine"!

------------------
Just because the majority believes it, does not make it true!

 

[Bench_It]

Try the Body For Life book as a start. Easy reading.

Shut Up and LIFT!!

Did you honestly comprehend the responses to your post or other topics discussed on this board? Your eating habits are a joke. I hate to sound rude, but your training is going nowhere if you continue to eat garbage! You need to adjust your diet philosophy, bigtime.
