I’m 29, M, 5’10, 207lbs and prob like 16.5% BF. I’m naturally leaner and have never had an appetite. MyFitnessPal lists me as having 3,279 as my goal for calories to gain weight to 220lbs. (Yes, that’s an arbitrary number, but I’m aiming to be 16% BF at 220 for mass).
My Apple Watch estimates I have a 2,300 resting calorie burn per day plus an average of 1300 burned during exercise, i weight lift for about 1-1.5 hours every day. So about 3600 calories per that.
I don’t eat that much and really struggle to even get close.
Breakfast: 1320 cal
1 bowl of cereal: 240 cal
two slices of toast with butter: 260 cal
2 scoops of whey protien: 200 cal
1.5 scoops of mass gainer: 625 cal
lunch: 1340
(As an example, I have Panda Express logged)
fried rice, orange chicken, Kung pao chicken: 1040
(I usually do left overs, but this was conveniently listed in MyFitnessPal)
clif bar: 300
dinner: 900 cal
homemade chili (beef, seasoning, tomatoes, onion, shredded cheese, bell pepper, jalapeño)
dessert: 825
2 scoops whey: 200 cal
1.5 scoops mass gainer: 625 cal
TOTAL: 4385
Thats like: I’m dead and eating non-stop and that math just doesn’t seem right. Actually I haven’t logged my food and thought I was waaaaay below. So, now I’m even more confused.
(am I overeating? That’s a new question I hadn’t anticipated at the top of the question.)
