If money is a concern, chicken and tuna are cheap. If you're serious about gaining, you want to aim for at least 1 lb of meat per meal (with the exception of breakfast where you can substitute eggs for the meat--and I'm talking about 7-8 eggs for breakfast with a good amount of bacon).
A lot of people go to the gym and wonder why they don't get much bigger. Even if you have an extremely lazy, disorganized and silly workout program, you'll still gain quite a bit if you eat enough. It's 100% eating, and eating is the hardest part of working out. The actual lifting is easy compared to it.
And keep in mind you only have three months to do this, so even if you gain optimally, it's 10-15 lbs at the very best. You're not going to get huge or anything, and you'll be in great running shape still. Think of it as adding a little bit of a buffer for BCT, while getting stronger at the same time .
I didn't receive an appointment, so I actually have a year. (Just getting prepped for next year.) Thanks again. I love chicken, tuna, and eggs anyways. I'll just have to eat a lot more of it now.
