How much do YOU eat? for your size?

[startinfromscratch]

Im interested in seeing the difference in how much food people consume, for their size. Given the variations that all online calcs give for trying to figure out your maintenance cals - i thought people who actually walk the walk could make an interesting thread!

there are really 3 main figures you should post up: your weight, your daily cals, and whether thats deficiet/maintenance/surplus. BF optional :grin:

Ill start

weight 87kg

daily cals: 2700

deficiet

hope to get some good comparison...

[Beef]

weight: 105kg

daily cals: approx. 3000, maybe slightly over but don't keep track

deficit/maintenance/surplus: maintenance

[vinnie700]

weight: 80kg

daily cals: 4000+ (3500 absolute minimum, and its clean)

deficit/maintenance/surplus: surplus

At the moment i'm just in surplus and its working well as i'm building lean mass and have dropped bodyfat at the same time. I used to "bulk" but after the results i have had just staying in surplus i cant see myself going back to eating big meals every two hours

hmm im to lazy to caculate and weigh all that shit.

instead I have a plan. divide the dinner plate into 3. each portion consisits of protien(meat), carbs(potaotes yams etc) and the rest fiber vegtables like corn n peas brocli n shit. I eat 4 plates of that + 2cups of oats and 3 shakes and a litre of green milk. 5x a week. weekends is a little less organised.

If you're dropping bodyfat despite being in caloric surplus, what do you attribute that to? A specific macro ratio? AAS? Cardio?

M1-1 cup of oats with 1.5 cups of milk, tbs of protein powder, 2tbs yogurt 1 hard boiled egg.

M2- a can of chop chop, tuna, or salmon on two pieces whole grain toast with melted cheese, tomato and spices on top.

M3- Pre-workout protein shake with 250ml milk, banana and apple

M4- Post workout shake with 250ml milk, two pieces whole grain bread with peanut butter and nutella on them.

M5- Mixed veges and about 100g chicken or beef with about 100g cottage cheese and spices mixed in, hard boiled egg.

M6- just before bed snack really, about 15 mixed nuts and a hardboiled egg

I'm not totally strict on that, some things get swapped around time to time but i'd say thats pretty much what I average, never sat down and worked out calories but i'd guess at around 4000Kcal.

M2 can sometimes be after the post workout shake, just depends when during the day I go to the gym. That's on workout days, every second day. On rest days I drop 1 shake. I'm 184cm, 89.5kg, Bulking. Had two nights in a row drinking and bad eating after exams, was 89.8 and dropped back to 88.5. Was so damn close to 90 but i'll get there this week sometime.
