To the OP, how do these ingredients look to you?

everyone does that. it's not just you. - that's one of the reasons why you have to eat a big ENOUGH surplus to not just allow your body to burn it by fidgiting.
I know this is a difficult concept- but you aren't really a special snowflake.-1 -

Fidgeting? I think you just don't eat that much IMHO. But hard to tell unless we both went to Claimjumpers and went to town on dinner-1 -

OMG how have I missed this? 10% fat diet but high fructose corn syrup's gonna kill you0

If my understanding is correct though, then it's appetite that makes the difference. Otherwise, obesity numbers would be a lot lower, right?0

I know. It's odd that threads with topics that have been covered 500 times would have some of the same type of replies isn't it?

Well, considering the OP was stating that, for example, annatto is a bad additive that causes health problems, and then suggested other people did not know what is in food its a valid question.0 -

Wow, 5 pages? And of course the same usual suspect all up in the bulking section speaking about things they don't grasp. Unreal.
seriously ....
can we just ban certain people from this thread so it does not devolve into the typical MFP BS ??? that sounds horrible I know ..but this is the one part of the forum that I generally enjoy and tend to get great advice from ...besides the eat, train progress group of course ...gotta give sara some props...0 -
Not to side with the OP but there are two groups of people that want to gain weight.
1) Those that want to gain muscle/size
2) Those that are recovering from eating disorders or have a misunderstanding about food that put them into a position of wanting to gain weight but cannot for whatever reason.0 -

There are far too many factors to try to minimize it to one or two things. Many people do not eat in excess because they are hungry - they eat for other reasons. And on the flip side, many people eat too little for many reasons that are other than appetite. There is a lot of obesity because people eat more food in general and move less in general. The reasons for these are varied and individual.0 -

agree..
here is OP's original statement "Trying to gain about 15 more lbs. I have gained 3. Wanna build a booty. I have been lifting weights but it's so hard eating over 2,000 calories because I feel full after eating that much for the day "
based on that I assumed that she fell into category 1 ...but after hearing her views on food I believe she falls into 2, but may think she is in 10
