hahaha how do I have aidz? Also yes. I believe you're correct in your assumption.

Cheers yeah, my dogs have always been family to me. Love them to bits.

hahaha NO f**k that shit. What you can see a hint of on my ribs there is the name, date of birth, and date of death (if they've passed) for each of my 5 family dogs I've had through my life. Decorating the 5 lines of text is a bit of a generic/cliche rose bush/vine design that extends from the bottom line of text on my side, over my back, all the way up to my right shoulder. On my right shoulderblade I have another 2 lines of text, which are lines from a song.

My current background on my home PC (I have a 1920x1080 version though):

Wut. Restricting calories too much below maintenance will cause you to drop muscle mass as well as fat. We don't want this.

Giving even less than my usual amount of f**ks because it's a weekend? I'm going for weight gain here, and while I'm not actually using the pizza as part of a nasty filthy bulk diet, I can't find any real reason to omit it on occasion when I feel like eating something shit. Also I was trying to make a point about how I'm ALWAYS hungry. Like even right now, I just recently ate lunch, literally just finished another coffee and a free blueberry muffin the cafe chick gave me, and my mind is still telling me to eat more even though my stomach is quite satisfied.

Smart ass, lol. They're all over my back too!!!

Progress pic time....hate how taking a photo from waist height makes chest+shoulders look narrower than they really are oh well lol

It also means the mixture will be rich as a result of increased petrol content, which will compensate for lower octane.

Lucky save there Richard

I think perhaps he was emphasising the rate at which he lost weight, saying it was too quick.

Spent $8k on a stock standard bike that kicks the shit out of the skyline lol

Easily. Last night was 1 cup rice with 300g kangaroo mince, then about an hour later an entire crust meatball pizza, then a touch over 1 cup of oats with a heap of prunes and dried apricots and a scoop of chocolate casein. Then I finally just fell asleep before I decided to try eating more.

It drives you crazy when it's not just the usual "oh what's that stomach, you're hungry?" Deal. All I think about when I'm not busy is food lol

The problem I currently have is that my mind is ALWAYS telling me to eat - even when my stomach says it's full.

I do this occasionally, once a week or so. I definitely agree on the points nick made. Plus food tastes better when high LOL But no seriously, I can do 4000cal from dinner and whatever I feel like afterwards until I go to bed. It's the solution you need meng Can't become a problem when I don't pay for it

Fair enough, yeah I suppose it'll just be something you have to train your body to get used to/get over. Hopefully doesn't take too much to do. And if it's just the volume of food that causes it, not the caloric content, at least as you said you can just supplement. I'd recommend giving Ultimate Nutrition Muscle Juice Revolution a shot (black tub, NOT WHITE). I've gone through a couple of tubs ages ago and it's really good stuff, with f**k all sugar compared to a lot of gainers out there. If it didn't make me feel like shit (from sugar content) then anyone will be fine with it. 2 scoops (half recommended serving) with water should net you 550cal or thereabouts, and it isn't bloating/filling. Doesn't have creatine either, if that makes you feel bloated or overly full like it can with me sometimes.

If you're literally force feeding yourself to the point you vomit, you're doing it wrong - even eating until you're almost at that point might be a waste of time, as personally I find that displacing that much of my stomach acid all but halts my digestive system, and subsequently I end up eating less overall through the day since I'm full for WAY too long. I've only eaten enough to spew once or twice in the last couple of months, and this was only of an evening when I don't give a f**k about how over full I am since I know I'll be relatively back to normal in the morning. Unfortunately another downside I've experienced to vomiting up your food, even only a little bit of it, is that it has a similar effect of halting my digestive system. By this I mean I'll still be full in the morning, and if I make myself burp I can still clearly taste whatever I ate too much of the night before. Like everything, find that happy medium. If you can eat more food, EAT MORE FOOD. Just don't eat TOO much food. Then, as soon as you feel like you could eat some more - EAT SOME f**kING MORE FOOD. AND THEN FOLLOW UP WITH SQUATS. hahaha

Yeah, I was in it for the fun. I did not get $40k+ worth of fun out of my R33. Not even close.

^^^ aside from the "terrible quality" food suggested to eat (let's not debate how fast food is or isn't "bad" food please), that's exactly it. You simply have a higher BMR than 'normal' for your weight, and or you quite simply aren't eating nearly as many calories as you think you are. This is where the "terrible quality" food suggested will help since its fat content will be through the roof, but it would be preferably to increase your caloric intake in a BALANCED manner by eating a lot more "good" food. More protein and carbs, and a little bit more fat. Still avoid hammering sugars/simple carbs since they can f**k with insulin resistance, but otherwise just go nuts until you start gaining. That's what I did (and am doing, though my weight and subsequent BMR seem to have more or less caught up to my caloric intake lol). I just went on a seefood diet, eating anything I felt like (which is never shit like Maccas etc. Worst things I've eaten so far have been decent quality pizzas like Crust or restaurant shit, and ludicrous amounts of weet bix and oats with honey and dried fruits. I've had the occasional sweets like a muffin, pudding for desert when housemates have cooked a feast, or some overly sugary biscuits like I regrettably got into yesterday. Biggest change I made at first was eating potato again and not giving a shit.

This, and don't say you do eat enough lol. You don't.

AHHHH ok, thanks for the info

Pardon my potential retardedness, but what on earth is the point adjusting cam timing without the car on a dyno anyway? Where did you get the settings you're gonna use without it being on a dyno to know they the most efficient?

Been there, lesson learned

oww
