    Increase gradually and space out the food. Doing cardio too makes a person hungry. Put the bulk of the starchy carbs after workout. Add an evening snack that includes protein and a good fat. Mine is cottage and almonds.

    Hey there - in 2nd week of Beast myself. I have used quinoa to help me up my calories. It's been a gradual increase, some days I don't hit my goals, but it is awesome eating and feeling my body tighten up at the same time!!! PS - sent you a friend request too

    That's funny that you are increasing your calorie intake for Body Beast and I am decreasing. Based on the Insantiy nutrition guide, I was eating 2050. I have now switched to BB and based on the guide I should be eating 1600 :( I only went down to 1800 though.

    Hi!

    I'm about to start BB and I'm so excited :)

    Currently I'm eating 1500 and according to the meal plan I should eat 2200!!!! O_o Is everyone here eating what Sagi recommends? I'm scared of gaining weight, it's 700 calories more, I don't know what to do

    Thanks!

    I am about to start BB as well but I am going to eat when my body tells me too. I already have a good muscle base and I am using BB to help me lose a little stubborn fat while keeping my muscle. I am going to Intermittent Fast during rest days since I am already accustomed to doing that. It will be interesting to see how the two work together.
