Today, I found out that my roommate has been switching my protein powder with chocolate milk mix and brown sugar. Since I work out frequently, I've been consuming large amounts of this and have gained at least 10 pounds of fat. His reason? I turned his bookbag inside out. Once. FML

You would have gotten just as fat off the protein powder. You think that just because you loiter in the gym staring at girls in yoga pants, you can consume massive amounts of food. You're taking in too many calories.

How do you know the OP is taking in too many calories? He might be trying to build muscle, which you need to take in a lot of calories and protein to do.

I'm sorry, but it's your own fault. 1 scoop of sugar mixed with chocolate powder has the same calories as 1 scoop of protein. So it wasn't the sugar that made you fat. Your diet just sucks...

But surely protein shakes have protein which helps build up muscle, whereas chocolate powder just has carbs?

#48, I don't think you quite understand how calories work. Please do some minor Googling on calories/protien/fat/carbs, (or whatever the subject at hand may be) next time you try to sound smart.

#63 Are you talking to me? Because I know perfectly fine how calories work. And 1 scoop included in protein powder buckets are about 30 grams. And 30 grams of protein is 110 calories. And 30 grams of sugar is 135 calories. That's 25 calories extra he has been taking in after his workout. This wouldn't cause a weight gain. So his diet is to blame. Also, the sugar after your workout isn't an entirely bad thing. Since the body needs the energy both before and after a workout. Please elaborate on how I'm wrong again...

No, you're wrong. Protein shakes are used in workouts because the protein is used to consume fat as energy. On top of that, the protein is used by the muscles to repair and rebuild muscles, allowing for faster muscle gain and less post-workout muscleaches. Calories are just energy values, calories from sugar and protein are not comparable. Sugar is either used up quickly in exercise or converted to fat while protein serves different functions in the body. Do some research before you post.

I know my research, and I know how protein works. This is not the topic. The topic is that OP gained weight, and OP is trying to blame the sugar shakes. Which are not to blame. 35g of sugar is not going to "convert itself to fat" Unless he consume too many calories to begin with. Let's say op needs 3000 calories a day to maintain his weight. Let's say he's eating 2500 calories, and drinks his sugar shake. That puts him at 2625 calories. Which won't make him gain weight. You feeling me? My initial point is still valid. Left-over energy is what makes you gain weight. Not sugar. Please stop spreading this shit, and google. What I'm saying is true. You can't gain weight without having more energy than you spend. .. -.-

Dumbasses, all of you who think shakes always taste bad or that they aren't useful. Gaining muscle weight is the point. Sorry your buddy did that, bodybuilding is hard.

Honestly though Aside from the fact that you should've been able to taste it Working out that much and consuming a sugary beverage instead of a protein one should only slow muscle growth and not make you gain fat

At least you will probably work the fat off pretty fast if you exercise as much as you say. Stick laxatives in your friends food sometime for revenge, yes?

Your roommate needs a lesson in silent revenge. Various bugs blended in to food should do it.
