I find the big kids I have gotten the sour sticks to them better.
Deadlift you over it!

I'm going to sit here in my appropriate sour to gummy rationess and be happy. You keep the big kids. Too much chewing for so little sour!!!
the upside of the big ones- you can bite them in half and scoop up sour sugar out of the bottom like those dippie stix from way back when.
That's harder to do with the little ones.
This may make them redeemable...

What's wrong with that if you're trying to gain weight? It will make you eat more, which is what you need to do to gain weight.sflano1271 wrote: »What type of wholegrain carbs can I eat??cause rice or pasta dont fill me up for long and do be hungry after a while, I dont like eating rice or sweet potatos!!

Regular potatoes? Don't fall into the trap that you have to eat specific foods because they are "in" with the bros on Instagram and Bodybuilding.com.2 -

Oatmeal, barley, quinoa. Also consider starchy vegetables such as beets, pumpkin, and winter squash. Since you're bulking you can mix nut butter, bananas, canned pumpkin, or whatever you like into grain dishes.1 -

Sorry I got you confused with the OP.
If you're trying to lose weight, there's no reason you have to eat any carbs at all - your body can manufacture glucose from other foods. Focus on the foods you like and enjoy, and cut out the ones you dislike.1 -
sflano1271 wrote: »Im not looking to gain weight I need to lose weight
I confused you with the OP - and since this is the "Gaining Weight and Body Building" forum and this thread is specifically about eating to gain weight, I assumed you were trying to gain weight - especially since you just asked a question without stating your goals.
That's why it's often better to start your own thread (in the appropriate forum) rather than hijacking one already in progress - things are much more clear that way.7 -

If it's easy you can eat whatever you want, if it's hard stick to the calorific foods (many good suggestions already) such as
White bread and pastas
white rice
ice cream
fruit juices
chocolate
Oh, and don't discount the sour patch kids and other gummies for workout energy if you need it. It breaks down very quickly to glucose and is a great for fueling workouts.
If you are using a carb powder from the supplement stores ditch that and go for dextrose monohydrate, aka d-glucose, at your bulk store for a lot less money. It's usually sold as corn sugar. It's also available for next to nothing at wine kit stores.
I am trying eat as clean as possible. Thank you for you tips. It will be helpful1 -

Why are you trying to eat 4,000 clean calories? You don't get extra credit for exceeding your vitamin and mineral needs. Fat gains are relative to your surplus, not how clean you eat.3 -

Eating mostly nutritious is great but you don't get extra benefits once you hit your nutrient goals.. when you are trying to hit that many calories you will struggle, not to mention the high volume and fiber of the carb can make you feel full and bloated which can impact your workout performance.2 -
I keep seeing commercials for ihop all you can eat pancakes right now. I wonder if they would kick you out for trying to hit 500 carbs in one sitting.

Absolutely everything you eat is a chemical. Everything. As for artificial ingredients, go actually look at what they are and what they do. The majority are not remotely harmful and present in tiny doses. Seek to learn and not feed into the fear mongering orthorexics and holistic quacks push.6 -

Everything you eat has something that can potentially be harmfull, even fruits and veggies. Since you have a lot of calories, if eating so much is a pain, drink something like chocolate milk or if you want high caloric foods, opt for dried fruits, just a serving of dried dates is 284 calories. Muffins are also high in calories, one muffin can go up to 500 calories. Pasta has high calories too for so little quantities. I even eat donuts when I need to reach my calories goals, I still suggest you add some of the junk food in your food diary, they are easier to reach your goals. It's up to you.1 -
If you have the time to make some high carb sweets like cake, that would help in avoiding foods with artificial ingredients.Wheelhouse15 wrote: »My suggestion...eat them. But seriously, with that many calories how easy do you find it to hit your carb totals?

Why are you trying to eat 4,000 clean calories? You don't get extra credit for exceeding your vitamin and mineral needs. Fat gains are relative to your surplus, not how clean you eat.Wheelhouse15 wrote: »My suggestion...eat them. But seriously, with that many calories how easy do you find it to hit your carb totals?
If it's easy you can eat whatever you want, if it's hard stick to the calorific foods (many good suggestions already) such as
White bread and pastas
white rice
ice cream
fruit juices
chocolate
Oh, and don't discount the sour patch kids and other gummies for workout energy if you need it. It breaks down very quickly to glucose and is a great for fueling workouts.
If you are using a carb powder from the supplement stores ditch that and go for dextrose monohydrate, aka d-glucose, at your bulk store for a lot less money. It's usually sold as corn sugar. It's also available for next to nothing at wine kit stores.
I am trying eat as clean as possible. Thank you for you tips. It will be helpful
