You shouldn't be bulking by eating like **** though. Those burgers are loaded with sodium, etc. Carbs are fine to bulk with if you do it by the likes of pasta, rice, beans, etc with chicken/steak for your protein. Beans are great bc they are also high in fiber just make sure to use the non canned ones to avoid sodium.
I need to lose some weight so I plan to go strictly onto a low/no carb diet. Boiled eggs in the morning then plain chicken with broccoli/asaparagus/ string beans, etc for lunch/dinner. Everything will be low in sodium as well which I really need right now.
