Here's the facts.
I am 5 11, 176 pounds, trying to add muscle.
People keep telling me, and they are right, that in order to gain muscle, I need to gain weight, I guess about 10 pounds would be good.
That's the easy part, here's the hard part, how do I gain 10 pounds of clean muscle that won't blow up my face or make my stomach more bloated?
You see, unlike a lot of Irritable Bowel Syndrome people, I have no problem gaining weight, I did this 2 years ago.
I decided it was time to add weight, because I was skinny, skinny fat because my stomach was bloated.
I went from weighing 167 in 8 months to almost 200, the result, people who see my picture then say I look tubby.
People who see me now say I am skinny.
I go from one end, weighting too little, to being fat.
The worst part is, right now as I get told I look skinny, my stomach as we speak is bloated, it's fat.
Therefore, I'm afraid about adding 10 pounds, who is to say it doesn't all wind in my stomach, making my stomach fatter, but my arms just as thin?
1) My question is, how can I diet so that I can add enough weight, which I have to, in order to gain muscle, and not just gain more fat in my stomach, or fat overall.
2) How many calories should I be eating?
3) I guess I should eat 1.5 grams of protein, how can I get this much protein?
Here is what I ate yesterday
Meal 1 (10:30)
Scrambled egg whites with honey (yeh, no more honey, caused bloating)
2 slices of Potatoe bread with margarine
Bowl of Rice cereal
Banana (mild bloated)
Meal 2 (1:30)
Bowl of Thai noodles with soy sauce
10 small slices of Turkey breast (bloated)
Then I drank about 32 oz of water through the next 3 hours, and my body was flucating, it was driving me crazy, one minute it would be extremely bloated, then not as bloated.
Meal 3 (5:00)
Panerea bread Turkey sandwich on sourdough bread with mustard, lettace, and onion (bloated)
Meal 4 (7:00)
2 servings of gefilte fish
1 slice potatoe bread
Meal 5 (9:00)
Chicken kabob (restaraunt)
Curry chicken
White rice with lettace and Light Italian Paul Newman dressing
8 oz Fat Soy Milk (bloated)
Pepperment tea helped the bloating for 20 minutes, then it came again
Meal 6 (11:30)
1 serving gefilte fish
1 spoon of peanut butter (12 grams of fat for 2 spoons)
8 oz Fat Soy Milk (bloated)
4) Did I eat enough to gain muscle, did I eat too much and will eating like this make me fat?
5) Did I get enough protein, how can I get more?
6) Did I eat too many carbs? I blame me blowing up in my face last time on having too much fat and carbs, I want to cut down on carbs so I don't blow up in weight, but I notice when I eat less carbs, I am a lot more hungry.
What can I do to gain muscle, not get more bloated but less bloated and limit any fat, I can't have it where I stay at 176 because I won't gain muscle, but I don't want to eat more only to add fat.
