2,700 calories might not be enough but that depends........

You need to give more stats ....age, weight, whats your day like, how active are you, tell me those and I'll help you out.

With those I'll have a better idea if 2,700 calories is enough.

I would lose weight if I ate 2,700 calories a day for example. I need 3,000 just to maintain, so me for example would need 3,500-4,000 calories a day (depending on how clean) to bulk. Lets say I had 4,000 calories a day, that means after everything my body gets 1,000 calories more than baseline every day. so if I did this for a week that would be 7,000 calories extra each week. A pound is about 3,500 calories so I would gain 2 pounds a week at that rate. But you can also go at a rate of less than 2 pounds a week if you wanted to go super clean. And always weigh yourself in the morning when you wake up since if you do it randomly it won't be accurate. My weight fluctuates about 5 pounds depending on what time of day.

Edit: btw, I am not suggesting you eat 1,000 calories extra a day, this is what works for me and is not the cleanest bulk, but for others this might put on a little bit too much unwanted fat. You can just test for yourself and see how your body reacts. If you want really clean bulking start with 200-300 extra calories a day and go from there.

Anyway those are some basics, hope it helps and give those stats.
