A couple of weeks ago I decided to see if I could put on some mass before the end of the school year. I figured this would involve not only going to the gym (which I do already) but consuming at least 1000 more calories a day then usual.
At first it started out with just eating 2 meals plus a snack a day to 3 meals plus two snacks a day. Massive sandwiches, giant plates of pasta, gigantic salads, and a couple of big eats at the Hoito. Even with all that I still wasn’t getting anywhere. That’s when I came up with my super-secret muffin-man diet ….. which, is no longer super-secret now.
The base of my diet would consist of a giant muffin for every meal, supplemented by what I would normally have eaten. SO on top of the previous big-eating list I now had 3 or 4 giant muffins. I love the giant muffins, so I figured this diet would just be fun. It worked, I’m up 5 pounds. However, there have been some unforeseen consequences.
I poo a lot now. By a lot I mean four or five times a day. And they are not little either. I’m producing more poo then I ever have in my life, consistently over a number of days. I don’t understand how. It does coincide with my theory that part of my skinniness is due to my body not being the most efficient processor of food, and that most of what I get goes to waste.
The other factor in the thin-me I assume to be a higher metabolism, evidenced by the noticeable amount of heat I tend to give off. The higher metabolism was to be countered by the increase in calorie intake, but what do I do about my body just not digesting the food?
I’ve decided to discontinue the muffin-man diet… as soon as all the muffins are gone.
