How to eat to gain weight- a ectomorphs dairy

This time I will not claim to be around here for long time, so when I want to come back and I want to write something I will be here.

    So for the past three months many of my London friends were left this place and went back to their homeland. And Ii genuinely wish them all the best. So my routine is changed to gym,office,home and since then my priorities changed , I want to focus somewhere just to get a grip with my new priorities. So what I did was just focus on my diet aka eat more calories.

So I had a jump start at the start of this year and I cooked a lot and I ate a lot, and proper food. More carbohydrates, protein diet. Every 3 hours I tried to eat something and I would say I succeeded somehow. Before this diet I was on 69 kg, and today when I'm on 73-74. I never had these kind of gain other than when I was on my time hitting gym in 2007-2008. So as a fitness enthusiast I'm very pleased with my results. Being said, its not permanent, all these body, diet, isolation, compound movements I don't know how long I'm going to stick into.

I would try to describe my diet here:

I'm an ectomorph means, very hard to put on mass(hard gainer)
My body characteristics: easy to get ripped, always have a very good visible core,obliques and a high metabolism it means I can eat a 15 inch Pizza on one go, Last time on 31st of December 2012. And It will burn as normal food.

what I ate:  
Lots of Potatoes, mixed vegetable, fish, chicken(grilled), double cream, banana, peanut butter, soft cheese, oil, rice, Progain (450 calories) twice a day

what I did not eat (I would love to eat):
Lots of coke, pepsi,popcorn, pizza,Mcd, KFC


Potatoes : Very good source of carb
               Boil it, add some flavour and salt and eat
              U can mix potatoes with some mixed veg, flavour it and eat

Chicken :best lean protein, try to grill it and eat

Double cream: yes I said it correct, just for some extra calories, I made salad with banana, strawberry

banana,apple: good source of energy

Peanut butter : 2 table spoon daily, fat and protein

Soft cheese:  just for fun with wholegain bread

Rice: I'm an Indian, I eat Rice so end of story.

Oil: I tried to use very less oil to spray on the pan, Once Oil is cooked its not very good, but oil is necessary
   Oil before cooking is unsaturated and when u cook, it will turn to saturated and too much saturated fats, oil will give you very bad cholesterol.

One of the things I have noticed when I was in India, our food is healthy, but the the way we eat food is not very healthy. And I think I should write more about the food culture of India in the next blog, as I think I have more information to emphasize on.

What I did in the gym is coming up in my next one.

eat well
Bye
