Those “tailored suits” are outsourced to the Far East – good bespoke will start from £2000.
I don’t wear suits enough to justify a bespoke wardrobe but I do wear made-to-measure (and less than those prices!). A cheaper suit that fits you well will look a million times better than an expensive one that doesn’t.
chicken – ok so if you wanted to maintain that weight, you should consume 2500 calories a day. HOWEVER, you are working out so you need more protein and probably some healthy fats like avocados,nuts, salmo etc.
You should probably aim to eat about 2800 calories a day if you want to put on muscle mass, but focus on foods that repair the muscles after a workout – yes lean protein, but also things like cherries have creatine in them that help restore muscles after a workout.
You should probably fit in a few more snacks per day to keep and eat lots of fiber!
Hopefully you like things like peanut butter, yogurt and guacamole as those would be excellent sources of good fats and protein

Sounds like a fun diet!
“chicken, you sound like you have super high metabolism. beside those protein drinks & stuff, you probably need to eat constantly – ie 6-7 small meals through the day.

I think I do have a v high metabolism. I always eat until I’m full but never seem to add any weight. Sounds like these protein drinks are the way forward!
chicken, drink 40s. skip the protein shakes, those are disgusting.

ie those stupid ass Thom Browne suits that look like they were shrunk in the drier.
2800 calories a day???!?
I don’t think there’s enough hours in the day for me to do that much – definitely need the protein drinks!
thanks G10!
