    Because it's called GOMAD. I don't do acronyms.

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

    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 day

    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)

    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.......

    Wheel of cheese a day? Ooh another Anchorman meme!

    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.
    Darn, that's FUNNY!!!

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

    Ridiculous. Just downright weird.

    Folks, there is no magic bullet, magic pill, exotic oil or anything but your own personal determination that will, in the end, help you to lose weight and stay healthy.

    I'm just one stubborn opinionated woman. I lost a lot and then let a bunch of it come right back on!! It all comes from your inner strength. What matters to you???

    No idea what your post is referring to as this thread is not about weight loss. It is not even meant to be a serious thread. GOMAD is what people wishing to bulk sometimes do, so I think you have got the wrong idea somewhere along the way.

    Awesome!

    But actually GOMAD is a way to ADD calories to your day to try gain muscle (while lifting and all that stuff…..this is the short condensed version).

    I'm pretty sure I can sell GOMAD for 19.95 a month to people to help them lose weight- apparently it gives them explosive diarrhea- there's a market for that somewhere!!!

    I can see the benefits - having to carry all the milk from the shops could add to the gainz. If I could have it as lattes - even better.

    Sadly I'm cutting so I wouldn't have the cals left to have much in he way of solid food so I'm out.

    GOMAD is for GAINING weight not LOSING weight.

    I'm willing to be part of the clinical trial group. For science!

    Dairy milk tastes like greasy, watery water.
    I'd rather do COED.

    Same. I might be willing to do that with beer... and ideally not every day.
