    Yeah, that’s probably something I need to look into as I don’t really drink milk. Not sure if whole milk has ‘too much’ fat as I also don’t want to gain weight in a bad way. I’m looking to build muscle and get lean but nothing crazy like under 15% body fat. I’d be happy with 220 lbs and 20-25% body fat.

      Peanut butter sandwiches can get really calorie dense rather quickly.

      My go-to “energy sandwich” that I will eat before a day of surfing has crunchy peanut butter on both slices of bread, and dried apricots, cherries, cranberries, raisins, or banana slices, with some granola and a drizzle of maple syrup.

      They’re delicious, and about 1000 calories per sandwich

        That sounds like my kinda sandwich. I was thinking of drinking my calories via smoothie with oats, protein powder and almond butter with some frozen fruit like berries.
