But my question is do I really have to consume that much to bulk up I mean I am primarily working on upper body because with me being so big my legs are already big? I mean in order to lose weight its intake vs output right? I hope you can help me I am confused now about how much to eat I have tried to stay on healthy food but I am afriad if I up my calories it will lead to overeating -------------- Jason Fox 6\\'1\\" 365lbs Weight Goal 300 by april 2007

You are correct, you will not drop the fat if you up your calories. You have to choose. In my opinion, your objective is to get healthy. This means dropping the fat. Forget about building mass, yo will be building some muscle anyway, as your predominant fuel will be fat. So when you get leaner, you will look better. Don't try to be something you cannot be at this point. Hope you understand this, but calories are the bottom line in any undertaking. -------------- Maximus from Gladiator....Strength and Honor!

You not only need some protein in your diet, you need a lot of protein in your diet. Low calorie salads with "some" protein isn't going to cut it and if anything, you'll put on more fat. His comment "This means dropping the fat" is about , you dropping body fat, not completely dropping fat out of your diet.

Salads are good,but make sure you continue to have protien with them. And you don't have to stick with just salads either. A chicken breast with some cooked veggies and brown rice is just as nice as a salad. :)
