What’s the diet looking like these days?

What’s the diet looking like these days?

Hey! Thanks for the interest. I basically chug one to two liters/quarts of Jersey Whole Milk (880cals, ~40gr of protein per liter) in the morning to early afternoon, eat a big lunch, snack a bit in between, and eat as many calories as I can at night. This has only been interrupted by recent (brief) periods of stress where I lose a lot of appetite.

Gold top milk? I love the stuff!
Define big lunch? What's the snack in between? Just how many calories can you eat at night? If appetite isn't there, drink more milk.
I'm not much taller than you, similar lifts, if your body composition is anything like mine, we aren't blessed with easily putting weight on. We have to make an extra effort, but take advantage of it, losing it on the other side comes easier, too.
I don't track calories (I suspect you don't) but I know what 800-1000calories looks like in a meal and I'll get 5 of them in a day. Not suggesting you have to do the same (I "do my cardio" so will burn a dose), but at least get a rough guide.

I would add to this that protein shakes are your friend, and are about as cheap (if not cheaper) than the whole milk.

This program is unkind to underweight hard gainers who eat what they’re used to/think they should. My natural bodyweight is around 180-190lbs and ol Uncle Rippy told me I should be 240 based on my height (6’).

Eat up, dude!

As Grey said, stripping fat off is WAY easier than putting it on for guys like us.

Gold top milk seems to be it, yes. Snacks in between are usually sugary (delicious donuts), big lunch is often rice/eggs with beef. Currently upped the milk to 2 liters/quarts per day. Thanks for your message!

Damn, if Rip himself told me to go for 240lbs I would make it my lifegoal. I'll just pretend he did.
