  • If you keep the candy bars, only consume those in the morning or after workout. After sleep, you need a fast digesting carb to prevent your body retrieving energy from protein sources (your muscles) because you just fasted for 7-8 hours. After a workout your body is depleted of energy and a fast digesting carb helps with…

  • Add protein shakes. Drinking doesn't make you fill nearly as full as eating does, so you can def increase calories that way. You can add other things besides a protein powder to the shake such as oatmeal, peanut butter and milk to add extra calories and increase your macro levels. Increase your cals slowly. You don't want…

  • It depends on what your schedule is. I don't have the time to eat six small meals a day, it's just not feasible, so I have to eat larger meals. It also depends on what you do each day.

  • It's perfectly normal to have weight fluctuations throughout the week, even day by day. It's important to weigh yourself in the same clothes and at the same time. The best time is in the morning.
