No worries bro, slack cut.

I don't know if you ever take MCT oil, but it's cheap and really good for some extra calories. About 100 cals per tsp. (good fats)

I see it all the time--people beating themselves up in the gym and not seeing results. They don't understand that hitting the weights hard is only a small part of growing or even cutting down. I could train the same all year round and get big or get ripped just by eating different and taking different supplements"

But you'd be sacrifising about .7 calories per gram .

Honestly I wouldn't recommend any fancy fats to a person who has never even had his essential fatty acids in the form of flax and/or fish oil. Get that nailed down first if you're going to spend money on a sup. Olive oil is tried and true. One of the best oils you could possibly consume.

How would you be sacrifising calories if you added MCT to your food ?
I see what your saying about essential fatty acids.

I was kidding bro. Because of the nature of them they only contribute something like 8.3 calories per gram, lol, as opposed to nine. The MCT's are more easily metabolized since they go straight to the liver and so contribute more to direct energy production without raising triglyceride levels, so I understand why people use them...that and their supposed fat buring effects.

But basically I was just saying that based on budgetary shortfalls, Anuj should concentrate on those things that are essential and are missing rather than something that is more a luxury .
