well, started eating today. kinda good except during the day at school i don't have a lot to eta =(

I have a question though about off-days...

Do i eat as much as i would on an on-day? or a bit less. also what do you do on an off day? would this be okay, i come home from school, do homework, watch some t.v, help out around the house, and on tuesdays play soccer other than that i wouldn't really do anything much. Anything else i should be doing?

Bro, I remember in high school I would sneak protein shakes, almonds and blueberries, and protein bars/cheese sticks into class with me and eat them. Always pack your lunch. Most high schools have the same companies that cater for prisons cater for them. As for off-days eat less carbs and more veggies if you can. Lots of protein.

oh yeah for sureeeee i do have my protein shakes. i can never forget to have them even though my teachers say no eating or drinking in class but i still do. I may try and get some cheese sticks actually, other than that im pretty good i guess.

should i be having the same amount of calories? not sure how much im having right now but im trying to eat as much as i can.

cals don't matter as long as you keep them high.
i've never tracked them before.

 

[ark94]

alright well i don't count much of anything, i know i have a clean diet i just don't know how many calories or whatnot i have. So i eat as much as i can.

Uhhh, just a question for a snack or 2 for school. Since im suppose to be eating every 2 hours, and it should have some source of protein in it, what should i have at school meat wise? r
Any sorts of meats you guys make and take it around that are convenient? i don't mind bringing around some tupperware, say if there was pork stew, or some shit like that in it, that i could eat. Any suggestions on convenient meat sources for school?

same shit here- i usually eat at school and even though it usually tastes good, i can tell the chicken is completely shitty quality and so is everything else.

Now that I feel like I need to get my diet on track to continue progressing the way i am, i am going to start doing some of the stuff iggy listed- what do you eat for lunch? I am going to start waking up earlier packing some PB&J's, almonds, and maybe cheese or a protein bar.

Don't get to the point where eating becomes a big hassle for you though because that's when you start to not care about it. If you know there is a teacher who doesn't care if you eat, eat in that class or if you sit in the back, eat in that class. You can also go to the bathroom/eat between classes.

Enjoy your training and your diet- they're lifestyle changes that take longer than overnight to happen. Gradually start doing things to improve your diet and it will become habitual after a while.

Keep the good shit up!

yo jdid, if you're looking to gain weight, try peanut butter & honey sandwiches versus pb&j. Way better for ya.
