I started off with RP with 80/10/10 carb/protein/fat and that did not work out for me appetite wise (upwards of 1200g carbs a day and often still hungry), so I switched to a bit more moderate macro split (about 20-40-40) but even with the increased fat I'm still pounding the calories with a seemingly un-ending appetite.
We're talking 5000-6000 calories a day lately. What's insane, is that I still wake up in the middle of the night with hunger and adrenaline spikes, even with all this. It's just getting out of hand...
I need to get this under control or my body fat gains are going to be epic :/
31 y/o male 6'0" up to around 205 lbs now, already almost the heaviest I have been in my life.
I'm thinking of bumping my fats up some more and dropping my carbs. Sugar has basically zero satiation for me and I just keep on endlessly eating it.
Problem is, Saturated fats, do not seem to give me mental clarity (aka, improve "brain fog") like sugar does, so I'm afraid that if I drop sugar more than my brain fog will return.
What to do?
I am trying not to sound like I have an eating disorder, but it's hard not to when I'm eating and gaining weight at this pace... But I think I have no choice but to swap more sugar to fat, as this is just getting ridiculous. Probably do 60% fats like what Kreese here does and has had success with.
