.... for those of you who think drinking tons of milk is nasty- and GOMAD is gross and a good way to get fat...

I would drink a gallon of milk a day if I could get away with it. I would NOT get diarrhea from it because my stomach handles it just fine.0 -
I wouldn't because, quite frankly, if I was going to drink all that milk, I'd use it as an excuse to buy a cow and then I'd have to milk the *kitten* every day.0

when i was bulking, i had a trainer tell me he wanted me drinking a quart of milk a day. *dry heave*
i struggle doing milk on a regular basis - i have since i was an infant; all types of milk, too.
PASS ON THAT.
:sick:0 -
I quit drinking milk a few years ago - I get all of the vitamins and calcium that milk provides through other sources, so there really isn't a reason to drink it besides taste.0

because milk is super delicious- I would do the same.... but yeah- I can't- far to many calories on my cut- I actually sadly just switched to plain almond milk (I almost exclusively use it for coffee and dunking oreos- and if I can have oreos and dunk them and eat just one more- instead of having a glass of milk- but rather almond milk- makes up the calories- I'm game.
cutting sucks.

My 1 year old goes with the GOMAW strategy. Gallon of milk a week. She's not fat!0

Is chocolate milk an option?0

I wish I could - oh, to be a teenage boy and drink milk all day and eat all the food
I agree though Jo, it would indeed make me fat(ter)0 -

I've milked them - although mostly on a cluster.
I have also hand-milked sheep to tube-feed lambs...0 -
Haha love it!0 -
My stomach (and toilet tbh )would revolt against me if I did that lmao :laugh:0

Can I do a gallon of coffee milk a day? It's the best form of milk. Scientific fact.0

I hate having to limit my milk consumption (altho I'm not doing a cut or anything like that!). BUT there's a dairy close to my house and they make their own delicious chocolate milk. MMMMMM, so mutha-truckin GOOD!
But I loves my milk. I was drinking about a half gallon a day when I was preggo with my daughter. She has always LOVED, loved, LOVED milk.
There were times the cravings were so sick I'd go on break and CHUG my 2 quarts of milk in one sitting. I literally had milk pouring down my chin and neck. I still remember the look of horror/astonishment my coworker had on her face that one December morn. lol
Dam milk cravings!0 -
I love milk, but if I did GOMAD, this would probably happen:
And I'm female, so that's saying something.
And I have enough toys laying around my house.0 -
God I wish I could still get away with drinking that much milk. Having to limit myself to one glass a day is just wrong, and having to choose between calories from beer and calories from milk is even worse (no I don't drink them at the same time but if I have a beer with dinner, no milk with desert :sad: )
If I ever get to the point where I decide to do a bulk you can bet milk will fill a significant portion of those calories! :drinker:0 -
What about if it were in the form of ice cream? I'd be all over that.
Except I'm on a deficit and it would be years before I ever needed to bulk (and I still doubt I could handle foodz + a gallon of ice cream a day). :sad:0 -
I think the female equivalent should be LBOCAD - large bar of chocolate a day
I think that ought to give any female weight lifter just the right size of calorie surplus for muscle gain with female testosterone levels.
some might call this wishful thinking!! :laugh: ......... but someone should come up with a formula for exactly what quantity of chocolate would give the required surplus (assuming all other foods eaten take you to your TDEE)0 -
I love milk and would drink it all the time if I could... but then it would be the only thing I would consume... and yeah, I like a variety of food.0

Nope, I'd still stick with milk! I like chocolate well enough, but it doesn't even scale close to milk. Now if we're talking cheese on the other hand.......0 -
Because it's called GOMAD. I don't do acronyms.0

You've gotta be from MA or RI because most people don't even know what that is!
That said... I wish I could do a gallon of coffee a day0 -

I like milk. Nonfat. I drink about three glasses a day. It's not a perfect food though.0
