Put natural peanut butter (the kind with the oil that must be mixed back in) on everything. On French Toast, bagels, in your Classic Grow! protein shakes (particularly the Low-Carb Grow! one before bedtime), on your asparagus, with peas and carrots, on your steak…everything. Okay, I went overboard, but natty pb will give you some good calories and good fat.
Some folks have said that they aren’t very big fans of milk, but I mix my Classic Grow! shakes with skim for some extra calories and a great texture (not that Classic needs much help in that arena). If you aren’t lactose intollerant, you should be fine with it.
Speaking of fats, get some flax seeds and mix them with your oatmeal or whatever you have for b-fast (they go well in pankages too, btw). And get some flax oil and fish oil. All good for you. You can take more than the RDA for fish oils, especially with a low(er) carb meal or shake.
(You ARE going to score some Classic Grow! and Low-Carb Grow!, right? I knew you were! Good job.)
Classic Grow! and Low-Carb Grow! taste fantastic, especially Milk Chocolate, imo. And they mix well with (don’t flame me) flavored non-dairy coffee creamers like hazelnut and such or with baking flavors like vanilla, etc.
This may be heresy to some here, but I like to drink my calories in this form. It is so easy to simply eat the regular 3 meals and drink the other 2 or 3 than to consume that much solid food, particularly in the summer. Post workout and bedtime are the most important for me, and I’m fairly sure several others would agree with that.
Go read the info on Grow! and Surge.
Get it done; do it early, do it often.
Enjoy the ride,
