Thread: Mass gainer instead of trout

Hey, I currently eat 300g of trout everyday (60g protein, 450kcal) and was wondering if it was bad to rplace with a mass gainer shake (50g protein, 1250kcal, 252g carbs). (I used to be a skinny guy, surplus of calories is what I need)

I know this would be less healthy but to what point? What would really happen if I drank a mass gainer everyday instead of 300g of trout? (Another reason I want to is because trouts take also lots of time to eat)

What are you? An otter? I think the first ingredient in a mass gainer is dextrose. You'd be better off consuming rice with your trout. Maybe take a mass gainer every other day, but I don't think a mass gainer should be at the center of your diet.

where are you getting all this trout???

My goal here is to have more time. Eating 300g of trout is very long, that’s why.

This is like asking to replace butter with orange orange juice

Idk both have protein, carbs and calories that I count every day.

Alright, could I know why it shouldn’t be at the center of my diet? What would happen?

Is it worth the 60g of protein that trout has?
