Official Transformation Contest Thread!!!

Re: Official Transformation Contest Thread!!!

I did however get in 2800 calories today, which is where I need to be to put on weight and not fat, 280g carbs, 180g protein, but it took eating like I did yesterday and almost half a gallon of milk. I sat down today and reset my goals for this coming year. I do want to get big, but it is going to take me no less than 3 or 4 years to maybe look like I at least go to the gym and consider myself an intermediate lifter. So it's back to Starting Strength followed by Madcow 5x5 for this year and maybe next. I would just be happy with looking like a powerlifter, i don't have to be a Frank Zane, and i don't lift like that anyway. I should see some nice results this year, if I just take her slow and steady, and just be patient, looking forward to the journey

Keep at it! Consistency is one of the keys to success.

It's really hard to watch and gauge and change people's diets when they don't follow them in the first place. Think about something. If you don't know enough about nutrition in the first place and a veteran trainer who has trained hundreds of competitors puts u on a diet then you take it into your own hands to change the diet because "muscular development" or "flex" said do it another way, u are going to fail every time. I can tell u 1 thing NOONE in the bodybuilding world I know of drinks milk! None! It wasn't til I came on the forums did I see people who just had to have their milk.dont over think this shit. And I hope to shoot u another diet by tonight!

LOL. It's all good, don't be mad FG, I ain't trying to piss you off. Don't get worked up over it, I'm not. Just trying to get my cals up, no biggie. I just can't eat that clean and get my cals in. I don't have a schedule that permits me to do it. I honestly don't expect to win this transformation anyhow, but it's fun to participate. I'm still a noobie and have a lot to learn on my diet, which hey, we all make mistakes, at least I'm going forward in progress, that's all that matters.....and for the first time at least I'm learning how to count my cals, carbs, and protein and see how it fits altogether. Shoot if you have to boot me out for not following rules....LOL.

Agree again as usual Fit, it's a big change for people, I agree with Milk as well, I had one guy try to tell my peanut-butter was a good source of protein..How can a food that is around 14% protein be called 'a good source'??? that;s the ignorance you have to battle with..Btw peanut-butter is a great FAT source, I mix 2 tbs with my night protein shake for added fat and slow the absorption.

[Vicious 13]

Peanut butter has its place but I wouldn't say that it's a good protein source. I also love milk too though... Especially chocolate milk... I haven't been drinking much lately though trying to follow diet I'm not even using it in my shakes anymore

[Vicious 13]

Fit, explain why milk is so terrible. I'm not disagreeing at all I just want to learn the reasons for it having no place in anyone's diet. I drink raw milk, not tons but some.

Imho, since we loose the ability to produce lactase the enzyme that breaks down milk around 3 yrs old, it seems logical that milk is a 'childrens' food and not intended for adults, no other mammal on the planet drinks milk as an adult(from the own species let alone another) I just don't think we were meant to do so, Alot of adults are lactose intolerant, Milk dosn't just give me gas, I tend to produce shit loads of mucus as well, an allergic response. The calcium in milk is very coarse and hard to digest.This is what The Physician's Committee for Responsible medicine, thinks about milk (even for children)

I could add more but you get the idea
