I just finished up a long diet for a contest and now that I'm trying to gain weight again and because I am hungry as hell I've been eating a lot more...I have a super fast metabolism (got striated glutes on 300g carbs a day)..so u basically eat what I want that's clean..I find myself really craving protein whereas wheni dieted I wanted carbs....I'm eating anywhere from 12-16oz per meal 5-6 x a day...anyone else eat this much? How much protein do most of u eat?
Yeah a good steak it's easy to eat over a pound. Good burger is easy to eat a lot of if it's seasoned well.
I also like the free range chicken from US Wellness Meats. Thigh and drumstick and wing meat with skin is very good and easy to put away large amounts of.
Sashimi I'll do two pounds of wild caught salmon or yellow tail at a sitting, very difficult to come by at most sushi joints.
And I hate to admit it but it's easy to eat an entire tri-tip from Wood Ranch, minus the sauce.

wow....lol, whats that bill like????
your paying close to 100$ per lb of sashimi
i know for a fact that(at most joints)
sashimi dinner is close to 6oz. of fish for what 25 to 30 bucks???
the deluxe is closer to 10oz. for 30 to 40 bucks
bro I'm eating 12 oz chicken 4 times a day right now....and I'm dieting! Its offseason for you, I would eat as much as you can..anywhere from 10-16 oz per meal, depending on what meat you are eating.
Sounds like a lot but if you're body does ok with it I don't see how it would be a problem. I eat 10-12oz of beef 3-4 times per day almost year round with no issues.
It's either 93% lean ground turkey or beef...it's just meat in general...well not chcken or tuna...I've had more than enough chicken, tuna and egg whites for a while...it ends up being about 4-5lbs a day

My body just will not assimilate that much meat at one sitting, at my current weight that is. I use mass aminos and desicated liver tabs for the extra protein if i need it.

I'm just wondering...how are u able to tell u are or aren't assimilating it all? I have about 200 lbs of lbm..I'm full for an hour and than I'm famished an hour later

For me there are a few ways to tell.
1. i get bloated and can just feel the food sitting in my GI tract. im sure you know the feeling after you've stuffed yourself its kind of like that
2. I get very lethargic when my body doesn't assimilate food completely.
--at 200 lbs lbm i see no reason for you not to be able to take in 300-350 grams protein.
---im at 400 grams and that is my top limit that ive been able to go so far.
I think some digestive enzymes would help you greatly. One thing i meantioned before is amino tables and desicated liver tabs. I take these for each meal and that allows me to get an extra 30-40 grams protein a day. Of good quality protein. Now that doesnt seem like much but it is.
Also i dont know what the break down of your diet is but carbs are a prtein sparring nutrient so depending on how your eating, this could be a good way to not up your protein but get extra calories while making the best of the protein that is already in your diet.
Does that make sense or did i ramble more words around too much lol
i don't eat anywhere near that amount and sometimes go meatless for long periods of time. i get around 200 grams of protein per day and my body thanks me for not overloading it and pushing the healthy envelope.
