It's 6pm and I've had:

a bowl of Apple Jacks and a chicken breast for breakfast (2% milk)
double cheeseburger & fries, coke for lunch

I'm debating dinner but it's probably 2 chicken breasts with mashed potatoes w/a beer. That's about an average day although I usually splash 2-3 protein drinks in between meals but I happen to be out right now. 4,000 calories a day and I'd be 300 lbs by Christmas.

damn, you're a lucky bastard, I am eating way more food than you, and getting sick of it, and still having trouble putting on weight right now

bulk, I am staying "on" for the next year, hoping to be on stage at 215-220lbs(at 5'8") by next fall. I'm currently around 250lbs at 10%, knowing my body I'll need to be around 275lbs at 13% or so to reach that goal on stage. I have an impossible time gaining mass without fat, so I'm not even attempting to eat clean. Plus, when I eat clean, it just doesnt seem to be enough calories to make any gains
I'm already at the point where I'm having trouble gaining weight(around 6 weeks into cycle). I've started adding a scoop of protein on top of most meals now too, so I'm up around 500 grams a day, but I'm thinking my calories are too low

Add some dextrose to the protein shakes.

you mean the ones before bed and the middle of the night? The post workout one already has 100 grams of it

Personally I wouldn't add them into the ones before bed or middle of night because I would get fat.

Maybe from the time you wake up til about 3 hours before bed.

only other one I really have is the pre workout one, so I could throw some in there. I use gatorade for dextrose, so maybe I'll just mix some up and drink it all night too
