    Even when dieting you need carbs to keep you full looking.

    I'm sure it can be found in several places in that forum but either way just post this question over there. You'll get much better responses. Ask for Swolecat.

    50g/day should be plenty

    I get fat of a small amount of carbs, so I eat them very selectively. People with higher metabolisms can go 300-600, or whatever they please. You gotta try it out and see what works. There's no magic number.

    Geez, a guy asks an honest question and you guys flame the $hit out of him. What's with you guys today?

    Dude, there's a sticky at the top of the Diet Forum that outlines a basic bulking diet. Read it a couple of times and post any questions you have in that forum. yes, Swolecat is a guru but there are also a lot of other smart dudes that hang out in the diet forum.

    And you don't have to gain a significant amount of fat when bulking.

    It's not just about looking full, it's about having energy to get through your day. I shoot for 150 g a day

    it sounds like the lean mass sticky may help u. do a search and ull find it fast or look in the diet section

    While i was 'on' I was taking in 80g Carb per meal 5 meals per day and I gained very little fat weight. If you cant handle gaining fat then maybe bulking isnt for you.

    no flames here...

    but i keep a good balance between protein and "complex" carbs... having candies all day isn't gonna be the solution... try brown rice, etc... they also have fiber to help you too... i usually stay pretty low on fat... of course, once in a while, I chug down two big macs...
