Replies
-
1-1.5 cup 3.9% whole fat milk
1 cup of oatmeal
1-2 cups spinach
2-3 tbsp gainzbutter
1 banana
Cup of blueberries
1 scoop of whey protein(approx 24-27g protein)
Like Niner said, ON pro gainer is supposedly the best pre made weight gainer out there. I've yet to try it since shipping costs usually amount to too much even if it's on sale. But for protein to calorie ratio along with the amount of nutrients in it, it seems to be a very good product.
Why can't you just eat the equivalent macros in a meal?
I can't imagine giving up the chance to chow down for a .....smoothie??0 -
Because sometimes I don't have the time to eat a 1000 calorie plus meal nor could I keep it down. The smoothie is the easiest and fastest way for me to get calories in. Plus I love smoothies.0

I love smoothies too. On the side of a big meal! I hope I come back as a six foot 5 body builder next time. I'm hungry a lot of the time.0

read the label and make sure it's clean carbs and not filled with sugar. RealGainz by Animal is a good one with very little sugar (not too sure of the name but it's in my diary so just read it)
YOu can also just add full fat plain greek yogurt to your existing protein shake to turn it into a homemade gainer. It'll have more fat and protein than carbs tho so it's good for mornings or nights but not as good for post-workouts.

You do realize that their is nothing "clean" about supplement powders, right? It's one of the most highly processed food items in the world so talking about "clean" in the same sentence as a supplement powder if just ironic.
You might as well skip the protein powder and just go with Greek yogurt and cottage cheese if you want a "cleaner" food and then just make a nice smoothie out of it with some PB and fruits etc. That's a great treat.0 -

Oreos are clean carbs- assuming you only use original and double stuff.
The rest are just dirty traitors.0 -

A lifting buddy of mine swears by The King, a fried PB&B sandwich. Pan fry a banana in some butter. Then put it on a peanut butter sandwich and fry the sandwich in butter. If you are feeling froggy, add some bacon to it. Tons of protein, fat, carbs and sugar (caramelizing the banana).0

They take second fiddle to girl scout cookies... lol I kid I kid.
Honestly I haven't tried them- but I have tried many- and I always feel like I am doing the walk of shame back to my original oreos. The extra ones just disappoint me all the time.0 -

My mint, red velvet, peanut butter, and cinnamon roll ones say otherwise
Though admittedly, they are all inferior to the original.0 -

There's so many things I like about this post. I quite often cure frogginess with bacon.

The best place for the mint filled ones is on my sundae! I'm not a huge cookie eater in any event but I love those GS mint chocolate!0 -

My father loved these sandwiches too but usually didn't do the fry part.0 -
