    Help with my diet!

    Hi guys,

    So I posted in the anabolic sections and they sent me here

    I'm 20years old, about 6'4 6'5 and 140lbs (!)

    I'm having hard time finishing any thing I start eating. I've been lifting weights for a while now but I don't see any change at all (I'm just getting stronger and can lift way more than when I started)

    So go ahead guys, tell me what to eat and I'll do it.

    PS: I don't eat fish and vegetables and HATE milk.

    Thanks a lot!

    When I woke up yesterday I drank a coffee + a croissant. Then a mcchicken for lunch (lol), then a pasta, 1 protein bar (20g) + then I worked out (another protein bar). 5g creapure + 1 protein shake that I couldn't finish. During the night I ate chicken + rice.

    I feel sorry for myself!

    I eat mcdonalds (only mcchicken) every day (just because it's convenient). I like pizza, tomato pasta, grilled chicken, grilled red meat and that's about it

    I eat the same exact food every day. I'm not adventurous when it's about food. I don't eat eggs. I eat a lot of bread.

    No work really mate I need to work out your TDEE so we can sort out a diet plan. Do you work in an office (light) or construction ( heavy)

    Right so your TDEE works out at about 2100 calories (roughly) so what we need to do is for starters add 500 calories so 2600 calories needed to bulk.
    Lets do macros at 40/40/20 thats protein/carbs/fats
    which equals roughly 1040/1040/520 calories. Are you with me so far?

    When you eat anything on the packet or box it will tell you how much protein, carbs and fats are in it. These are you macros for example a mcchicken sandwich what you like contains 14g of protein/40g of carbs/16g of fats
    Understand?

    Lol that's brilliant. Now your typical diet in a typical day put it in the app then post it in this format
    Meal 1 banana (p)10/(c)10/(f)10
    Meal 2 etc etc

    Total protein/carbs/fats
    Total calories

    Now that may take a few minutes but I will wait.

    What I will say is your at the start of a beautiful journey and I'm glad I can help someone like the guys on this forum have helped me and I'll be honest I'm still learning but I'm looking awesome lol and that's what we will do for you!!!!

    You don't need to when you put your food in the daily entry you click on finished log for today, then go to home, then at the top press daily, that will tell you all your macros for the day
    Did that help?

    Now the bit what takes the time you need to go through each section work out the macros add them up and give me totals for the day. Then I can see what percentages we are working with and what we can alter . Don't forget total cals

    Back again let's get started. Don't be worrying what you look like now as long as you have a goal what is achievable we will get there. Just out of interest what does your training routine look like? I still need your diet/macros for a typical day

    I think your first step may be to fire that fkn trainer! How can he NOT address diet with a client in your shape? Bastard is going through the motions just cashing the check!
