Thanks,

Just to clarify, devoting time to the gym is not the problem in the schedule. I am going religiously 4-5 times. Because I go bright and early, it allows me to consistently go. The schedule becomes an issue during peak hours and at night because of the hours I work and having my daughter during week nights a lot. That is why nutrition, not the gym, is the hardest thing for me to consistently maintain, despite by best efforts.

I think I will start to make some meals in advance if I can. I am probably going to go off the n02 within the next month and a half (when the current supply runs out) and it would be use to use that money towards food.

I had a question though. Even two years ago when I was working out intensely and eating quite a bit I was never able to get about 160lbs. I was very cut and looked like that guy who could lift a ton, but never really translated into tons of weight (215 bench, 295 squat, 145 millitary press). You really believe going past 4k calories will make me get fat? I work in a mall and before I started to concentrate on diet I was eating fast food every day and not gaining a pound. I just think that with the intensity of my workouts, to get a bit of bulk I would need to up the calories.
