  • ^^This^^ Alcoholism is nothing to scoff at. Especially alcohol binges, as they can lead to full-time heavy alcoholism over time. I hope you take his advice and seek counselling. I've almost lost several people in my life due to alcoholism, and have watched soo many people spiral downward because of it. I've even had my…
  • Tons of great recipes here! A couple weeks ago when I started researching shakes, that was the first thread that I came across. My initial posts recipe is based off the 5th reply in that thread. The 9th post gave me the idea to add JELLO pudding for more calories. Great advice for non-fruit gainers. Thank u!
  • Awesome. I'm gonna try to eat more whole foods and prep meals after some of the suggestions and research, but it'll always be nice to have a tasty backup calorie-fix. Please share any good recipes you discover here. PS I just realized that this thread should really be in the Food and Nutrition forum, but oh well! This has…
  • Selfie!!! But your weight tracker on the bottom elicits a different word: amazing! Keep it up :)
  • Now this is somethin I can get behind. There's nothing more American than eating freshly laid eagle eggs! Nice! Well, except banana.. I can't stand the flavor of bananas. Go figure the one fruit I hate has pretty much the highest nutritional value!
  • I would personally like to request that any posts in this thread involving common sense please be deleted by any moderators. DanceswithWow and I had a good thing going on until all these rational-thinking critics started coming out of the woodwork. Personally, I think they are jealous that they don't have the recipe for…
  • The old wrinkly guy in the shower that won't stop staring at me as he lathers wayyyy too much soap on himself. The whole time.
  • Nice! I always thought they would get nasty-tasting after a day or so. I will definitely start making them ahead of time, with whole milk :)
  • Yep I'm def going to get into more pastas and carbs after the advice I've gotten from this thread along with a little research I did. Still gonna do the shake in the morning when I don't have time to make eggs.. and I LOOOVE eggs, my favorite food, but idk if I could do 6 whole eggs. I usually do 4 with bacon and a bagel…
  • Yeah I thought about the GOMAD thing, but with the price of whole milk I'd be spending around $100 a month just on milk.. aside from that, I love me some milk and have at least a couple cups a day, but a whole gallon? Barf..
  • I'm fairly tempted to add this guy as a friend. This G-Spot Shake sauce doesn't sound too bad.
  • My plan is to drink them when I work early in the morning and I want to pack in a lot of calories right away because I wont have time to eat meals. Maybe three days out of the week. Like anything, it takes time to gain weight, even with the use of gainers. Everyone is different, too. I have a very high metabolism, so its…
  • Thank you everyone for your advice. I'm new to this all, so every tip is appreciated. I feel like I should have done more first-hand research before making this thread, but this is all part of the experience. So far, I've learned that whole milk would be much more effective than 2%, peanut butter is a must, carbs for…
  • Yeah definitely staying away from mass gainers. Seem like a total waste since that huge tub is gone within half the month. Today I tweaked my recipe and did this: 1 cup of oats (this time I blended the oats into a fine powder first, made it WAAAYYY better) 2 cups of frozen fruits 2 servings of strawberry whey 1 JELLO…
  • Ottermode? I've always been a pretty scrawny guy (170 lbs in this pic), and I've worked very hard to get the muscle that I've put on. I wouldn't mind getting to athletic in a couple years.
  • That looks pretty good. Might have to try this one out! Thank u
  • Don't always have time to make a full meal. Shakes are quick and easy to make, and I can take them on the go.
