I understand that you have to eat more food to gain weight. But if you're trying to add muscle while simultaneously trying to trim fat, isn't it hard to eat yourself silly? Maybe I'm just doing it wrong.
For example, here's my daily intake:
-Breakfast=2 Poached Eggs, 2 Pieces of Wheat toast, 2 Pieces of Bacon, small cup of yogurt
-Snack=Banana and Granola Bar
-Lunch=3 Pieces of Pepperoni Pizza
-Snack=Big Spinach Salad with low-cal spray dressing, Protien shake
-Dinner=Whatever mom makes (basically turns out to be something like this): Chicken Breast, Mashed Potatoes, Mixed Vegetables, Milk
I normally eat until I am between satisfied and full, but never until I'm stuffed as I have some weird problem with my digestive system (I get bloated really easily and I literally cannot physically burp).
As far as physical activity, I lift MWF and do HIIT Tuesday and Saturday.
I gain a bit of muscle, but I always look a bit thicker around the midsection too. Am I not lifting hard enough? Eating too much?
I guess the other possibility is that it it's my digestive system that's making it look like I have a bit of pudge. In the morning when I wake up, I look a waist size or two lower than when I go to bed.
