I am having problems following my diet here on FT. I am 16 and still go to high school so here is my problem. School lunches suck. Its impossible to eat a lot for mass gain but still have it be healthy. I try to eat a lot and try to make it healthy but some days its just impossible. Then since i am trying to gain mass i should be eating small meals every 3-4 hours (i think) that becomes almost impossible b/c i eat lunch at 12 and don't get home from basketball until 6. I have thought about trying a MRP supp. at around 3 or so but i need one that is cheap b/c i am limited on money. Does anyone have any ideas or opinions on this problem?

You really have your own answer. MRP's will always fill the bill. Will give you calories and protein and vitamins and minerals when needed in a pinch. Just a shaker cup and some water. Or if you prefer, you can make them up as pudding, just mix at night to a paste like consistency, even add some yougurt, and chill overnight. Put in containers, and the beauty of this is they won't spill! Almost any brand is relatively inexpensive when you figure per meal, around $1.50-$1.75 or so per package if you figure this out by the price of the box. Myoplex for example has 280 calories per packet I believe, so just 2 of them added to your diet will aid you in the form of 560 more calories, 84 grams of protein, and even more if you add yogurt. Good luck. You could always go the candy bar route too, but I would opt for the MRP's if you can.
