Dieting Problems!!

Ry Roid · May 13, 2003

Ok now I have never told anyone this cause I am quite ashamed of it but, I am known as an undereater and not a great fan of meat. I can never eat my whole plate of food whether it be while dieting or in bulking. When I have had enough I will actually throw up which makes dieting that much harder. See most guys are starving while dieting while I am opposite and could go days w/out eating. Just the site of a plate of chicken makes me hurl. Here are few tips I have started to help me in case any other freaks out that have this infliction:

1. I started mincing my chicken up into a paste and putting it into a low carb soup.

2. I only eat 4 meals and 2 shakes a day.

3. Postworkout shake has 120grams protein, 50 grams carbs(mostly Dextrose), 15grams glutamine.

4. Shake before bed has 60grams protein and no carbs and 15grams glutamine.

5. I do 2 days carb deplete and 1 day carb load. On deplete days I still have 500grams protein, 200grams carbs, 100grams fat. On Load days I have 200grams protein, 400grams Carbs, 50grams fat. I also have one cheat meal on this day.

People have always said that since I am over 300 that I need 600grams protein but, for me 450-500grams is PLENTY plus will not hopefully have kidney shutdown later in life.

Hope this helps,
RY

I don't know how you do it Ry I wpould just shut down on that small amount food

I do have friend who is very similar to you and doesn't have eat that much at all to grow.

RY-how about adding some more shakes? Use Maltodextrin too in the daytime shakes; Use oils (I mix flax/canola/safflower) in all except the post workout one. The oils especially are realy dense in calories. I cant say Im a huge eater either, but I force it. Id welcome the thought of a diet too, but I am concerned with strength loss (which I value) and size loss.

I ALWAYS FEEL LIKE I AM STARVING!

Really, I wake up each morning freakin' hungry...If I don't take eca and drink an assload of cold water....my hands start shaking. I am a pig. But.....after reading your post Ry, I am not sure which is worse. It doesn't sound like you get much enjoyment out of food! That must suck!!!! < hahaha.....I am destined to be a huge fat bastard!>

I did legs at 6am yesterday morning before school. Then I started eating....this is what I had:

meal one....metrx shake 8am

10:30 prep period..meal 2- double chicken breast sandwitch at subway, baked lays potatoe chips, 3 choc. chip cookies...
1:00- met-rx shake

4pm- 1 apple, adams old fashioned peanut butter smeared all over it, 2scoops of protein

7pm- 1lb and 1/2 lean burger, spaghetti noodles, 1can of corn, sauce, baked lays chips
10pm...protein, water....
woke up at 2am, urinated....and....
2am- ate more spaghetti, burger, etc...

CAN YOU SAY .....SWINE?!

This is somewhat of good news!

I have a very difficult time putting on weight/muscle. My frame is weird - small-boned, 6-1/8" wrist circumference, yet "wide" hips/pelvis.

I've eaten similar to Ry with relatively good success BUT I luv my meat! I've always thought that because I can't choke down at least 6,000 calories a day, I will never be big. I've seemed to do OK above 4,500 calories.

i deal with the same issue as you ry. somedays i just dont want to eat . im 6 weks out, and couple of weeks ago i did just that. no eating at all really. i just picked at my food. i was to tired to lift and to tired to eat. so i was totally ruined for about a week. but that happens to me. i still keep my muscle and i blow up after a simple meal like steak and baked potatoe. so im glad to hear but not glad we have this problem. im doing better now though. eating is back on track but it isnt the boatload like some can eat, which i dont know how they do it.

i never have anyproblem eating food. i love it. What i do have a problem with is eating clean food. I can't stand eating clean after a while. so i diet one time a year where i cleanup my diet till i can't stand it. Or whenever my shows end . AFter that i am slob. i can't stop myself from eating. (as long as its a good tasting food. ) I would love a 1lb filet right now with a boatload of mashed taters. Followed by a gallon of ice cream. Enjoy

Hey Ry, i'm glad you've found ways to at least help yourself eat more even though you will probably never enjoy it to the point that some of us do!

JustWannaBeHuge · May 13, 2003

man i love eating, but i fill up really quick sometimes, which is a real pain in the butt. i need to start drinking more shakes.

good info ry.

jethro, whats up with your posts man, first the deer one, now this one, you keep posting like this makes me hungry as hell, keep up the good work hehe.

JW
wish i still had some deer left. mmmmm

Wow, I would have never thought this, especially with you being one of the "bigger" guys on here. I guess I just assume that in order to get "that big" you have to eat meat, but of course, as in your instance this isn't necessarily true. I guess there is more than one way to skin a cat, eh?

I love steak/chicken and have never had a problem stuffing my face. But, I do get (or at least feel) bloated after eating a big meal.

Thanks for sharing the info, bro...but I certainly dont think its anything to be ashamed of.

lol excell iam not any where near 20% that was just one of those once in a while things i do iam probely in the 12-15 range iam still seeing top 2 abs and partials on the other 2 lol. hahah

Crowler · May 14, 2003

I definitely have a tough time eating. BUT not as tough as you Roy, that sucks.

I am small and yet I am losing fat on 5000 calories on workout days and 4400 on nonworkout days with no cardio at all. It is amazing you don't shrivle up to nothing you being 300lbs and eating less than I do.

BigBoyJ · May 14, 2003

I have the same problem as w8's. I LOVE FOOD. I eat almost constantly, but I CAN NOT stick to a diet to save my white ass. After two days of veggies, clean carbs and lean meats, it's time to head for Golden Corral! I stay steady at around 12-13% body fat. I would really like to get it lower, I just don't want it enough to suffer through a diet.

Plus, I hate cardio and it seems to shrink me up almost instantly. I guess I'll just keep looking like a power lifter

Actually I am quite afraid of that too since she has to see a high risk doctor. She had lymes disease before and was on a lot of anti biotics and other shit. I will know tomorrow.

Thanks,
