    What are you guys eating for carbs?

    My main carb sources for bulking are usually oatmeal and whole wheat bagels. When im at work i cant eat the oatmeal obviously because of preparation and pure inconvenience. so i am left with just bagels.. .

    I was thinking of maybe adding some sweet potatoes..anyone here use these and how do you prepare them?

    Any other recomendations?

    O yeah i limit fruit intake to before a workout only so no ---->

    pre-cooked yams, red potatoes, brown rice, kidney beans, multi-grain bagels and bread.

    With a microwave cooking becomes snap.

    my primary source of carbs are oatmeal, whole grain brown rice and sweet potatoes

    during a cut i try to eat as much veggies as possible, except for carrots and peas.

    sweet potatoes - peel, cut into 1 inch peices, boil, drain, mash. add splenda for taste. for an occassional cheat i will add a few small marshmellows in a serving
