Eating clean = no time

I’ve been eating clean for a few weeks now and may call it quits purely from a time perspective. Not just from making the food, but eating it.

AM: - Egg white, oat flour, and protein shake
- fruit/kale smoothie
- bowl of oatmeal

Lunch: - sirloin steak
- baked potato
- hard boiled eggs
- sweet potato fries

Dinner: - chicken breast
- rice
- side salad
- sauerkraut
- black beans

Literally timed myself today and it took me over 2 hours 20 mins to eat everything and I only hit 3900 calories eating as much as I could of everything, when i need 4300 a day for my bulk. Took about another 1 hr 50 mins to prep everything and cleanup too. Felt like chit being stuffed and lethargic all day.

I like the idea of putting on quality gains through clean eating, but I feel 10x better just grabbing some chipotle and whoppers and calling it a day.

I don't understand how people that live normal lives, working for a living, responsibilities, especially if married with kids and hell even taking care of parents as well are able to workout and have lean aesthetics.

1. There's no such thing as "clean" eating unless you're talking about cholesterol, the body doesn't care where calories come from, protein needs are exaggerated in the bodybuilding world

2. You're not 240lbs of lean mass, you don't need 4300 calories to bulk. No idea how you came up with that

This. I’m about 6’6 in bare feet, very wide shoulders and bone structure. I just got off a cut doing 4K calories a day and lost 4 lbs/month. Cut out the cardio and bumped it up to 4300-4500/day for my bulk.

I had a weird feeling you were the jolly green giant

Now it makes sense




My opinion is to eat out, grab that Chipotle bowl, go to Taco Bell, Mcdonald's is the goat for cheap protein and calories

You don't need to eat like a vegetarian to minimize fat gain, just control your own specific TDEE

fasting

Also you clearly suck at cooking. It's one of those things that takes time, years to become a master at. In time you will become more efficient and effective at managing time.
