Dieting for 3 months and My Metabolism is messed

[tjpatrick1987]

You know the title of your thread, and the content aren't related...right?

"Dieting for 3 months and my Metabolism is messed" conveys that you were restricting calories severely for 3 months, and now your metabolism is slow.

...which is exactly the opposite of what's going on here.

Just an FYI.

Now to your post(s):




So... i'm assuming this is your diet on average?



I'm looking at your 'diet'...and it's garbage.

That's the short story.

If you are indeed hitting 3k calories... It is from poorly picked, carb-dominant, sources.

Your protein intake as represented.. is too low.

Your 'snacks' are incomplete 'meals'.

It is absolutely horrible.

I don't believe I'm about to say this.. but:

Read the 'official guide to bulking' sticky.

If you have the time to 'snack' between meals... then you have the time to knock back a Meal-replacement shake or a protein shake w/ a scoop peanut butter.

Clearly your first post was not pertaining to a 'messed-up' metabolism... but rather to your inability to ingest enough food to result in weight-gain.

You clearly asked for 'options'.

To do so, you must supply what you currently ingest.

As outlined below:

2nd i also take whey protein and fish oil and work out 4 times a week, i didnt include my whey protein shakes because im simply tire

This is how it works:

1. You state the problem.

2. We ask a question relevant to your case.

In this instance:

List your diet.

3. You respond as requested... thoroughly.

In this instance, the request was that you list your diet.

Clearly, listing a partial diet would be counterintuitive... particularly if receiving advice is what you'd truely like.

....3rd of all my diet foods change from time to time not my calorie intake..

That factors little.

What was clearly denoted in my post is that your food selection leaves much to desired.

It isn't difficult to choose better sources.

I do have a life to attend to im a fulltime college student with an internship......And all the pasta i eat is Whole grain.. i am not a body builder ..i am someone looking to put on a few pounds and stay in shape....

You are not the only full-time college student here.

I am a full-time college student. I also run a fitness consulting business full-time. . I also am a competitive bodybuilder.

Much like how what i am matters little in the equation, what you do matters little.

What matters is that you have goals.

...And, if your approach is that of a minimalist... then your results will be minimal.

You received my assistance.

Clearly it is unwanted.

This however is no skin off my back.

People pay for less advice.
