A Re-cap

So this is what my typical lunch looks like. Mind you, this is what I eat after my workouts. In it is 2lbs of white potatoes, 8oz of beef, 1/4 onion, 3 hot peppers, cooked in beef tallow. I normally eat this at 1 o' clock and it keeps me satisfied to about 7 o' clock.

I have been adding calories each week. I am aiming to get to 4500 on training days as that is what has been calculated that I reach to continue to grow. I was previously only eating about 2000 cals each day which is well below even my BMR.


Got a pic of the liver. I decided that each week I am going to be having liver at least once. I will have some of this one one Saturday. I haven't had liver in a very very long time, but I think I enjoyed it. Even if I don't at first, I'm sure the vitamins and minerals will do me well as I am probably deficient in a few.

I am still waiting on the bone broth as I need to get to the meat market for some soup bones and ox tails. I saw that they fresh pork hocks and I wounder if those would be good for making broth. There is also a local place that has goat meat for sale that I might check out.

I am posting a couple of before pictures to document my "bulking" experiment. (The lighting is pretty bad and detail is horrible)

The Current Diet

So this is pretty much what my diet looks like each day

Breakfast:
500g of Potatoes
11 egg whites + 1 egg yolk
*couple of green onions

Lunch:
600g of Potatoes
228g Lean Ground Beef Sirloin
*1/4 onion, 1-2 hot peppers, bunch of fresh dill
75g Kale or Mustard Greens

Supper:
600g of Potatoes
228g Lean Ground Beef Sirloin
*1/4 onion, 1-2 hot peppers, bunch of fresh dill
75g Kale or Mustard Greens

(i use a little coconut oil to cook all the vegetables and beef)

I eat this pretty much every day, I broke down the macros using CRON-o-Meter
and it comes out to be 30/53/17 P/C/F. Also, the only vitamin/mineral that is low in my diet is Vit D which I am not 100 percent convinced is actually low.
