What determines how soon weight gain flat lines and calories have to be raised?

We noticed that I started flat lining at 110 lbs with about 2800 calories, so my trainer moved it up to 3100 calories. I haven't had a problem keeping this up--in fact I'm still hungry even after I get my 3100 calories. It's…

Hardgainers
I'm barely qualified to speak on this subject so let me just say that based on my very few days at attempting a moderate bulk, I think I know what's happening with hardgainers.

Cutting Gets Easier?
I ran numbers, based on some conservative estimates of what I could gain in terms of fat and muscle. To get back down to pre-bulk BF%, I would have to lose less weight. So is that the key to the nonchalant attitude regarding "meh just cut down afterwards"? The fact that with more lean mass, you can cut on more calories and…
