    Tell me all foods to bulk

    Hello there,

    Rather than us take the time to write out what is already written, how about heading to the diet forum and reading up on bulking diets, then ask any specific questions you may be left with.

    I did read those article, but it only give one exemple.
    I want to know the most foods possible.
    Because it's pretty difficult to eat everyday the same thing.

    And when it's written "oat" or "oatmeal" is it those "oat" like Kellogg's korn flex ?

    No its just raw oats.

    Just make sure each meal contains complex carbs. lean protein and essential fatty acids and you are pretty much in the right ball park.

    No, Quaker Oats is an example. Oats are not cornflakes

    the old fashioned ones are highly preferred as others contain lots of sugar

    yes, that's it. get the plain kind in the big round container, the instant packs aren't as good for you.

    if it's the ones in the big round paper tub, then yep those are very good for you. the ones in the little box with small packs in it are loaded with sugar, I would stay away from those.

    those should work fine. I was thinking of the 5 minute ones, but I compared the labels and they both look the same.

    Nice 10th post. He's referring to the flavored instant ones having way more sugar than the old fashioned type. What does "all sugar is the same" have to do with one product having more sugar than another?

    I figured pasta was a good choice as far as complex carbs go and a lot of you guys are talking about whole wheat pasta what could you add to spoof up the flavor without compromising the diet. Thanks again..

    I add chicken to it... Whole wheat pasta, chicken, and a little bit of fat free miracle whip.... Mix it up in a big bowl with some green peppers celery, and (sometimes) even a couple of eggs. It makes a good chicken/pasta salad.

    dude!! have you even read the post? He’s bulking, hes asking for foods to bulk with, that means hes probably going to want to EXCEED his maintenance caloric intake,

    So do you recommend he creates a positive calorie deficit with simple carbohydrates???

    WOW!! we have all been doing it wrong for years put down the porridge oats guys, and pick up the gummy bears lol

    anyway simple and complex carbs are WAYY different please don’t ask us to point out this fact...this really is basic stuff

    You answered my question, incorrectly I might add, so I ignored you. Everyone has a right to their opinion, and in this case I simply choose to disagree with you. Please remember that we are adults here, and calling me out will not help you in any way. Enjoy your stay.
