A calorie is a calorie?

Yes, on second thought you are right. Forget about the vitamin supplements and eat waffles. I am sure that will put you in fighting fit in no time. No doubt your medical/nutritional advisor knows more than those advising today's top ranked fighters.

Maybe some people can't gain weight no matter what or how much they eat?! Weight is stable.

There's so much to know here and not all of it is simple, but here's a reason to skip the waffles and whipped cream:

The body breaks down a lot of foods into sugar: bread, potatoes and alcohol (as in alcoholic beverages) being some of the prime culprits. And many foods, of course contain sugars that the body doesn't have to break down (candies, fruits, fruit juices, etc.).

Ok, so what?

Well, sugar intake is, for want of a better term, addictive. When your body takes in sugar (in direct form or in the form of something that the body breaks down into sugars), it craves more sugar. It makes you want more, and, in almost all cases, you will eventually give in and give your body what it craves.

Studies have shown that a child who eats course oatmeal (not the instant kind), which contains less sugars and is more difficult for the body to break down, and say, tomato juice or V8 for breakfast will eat a lot less (and a lot less 'bad' food) over the course of the rest of the day than one who has sugar cereal like Fruit Loops or Frosted Flakes and a glass of orange juice.

So when you indulge in high-calorie, high-sugar foods ... you'll find that you're more likely to intake more calories over the course of the day and thus it will be harder to cut weight.

That doesn't mean avoid sugars entirely. It means eat the right kinds and less of them.

And just out of curiosity, for your own benefit, you should probably ask this "Doctor" what all the consequences (long-term and short-term) there are for taking HGH and whatever PEDs they are pumping into your body. How old are you? What kind of long-term studies are there on the effects of taking the things you're taking in the dosages that you're taking them can they help you find.

If the doctor doesn't tell you exactly what is being put into your body in what dosages and what kind of effects that might have on you, he should probably have his license pulled.

It's your body. If what you've posted is genuine, you damned well better know what you're allowing to be put in your body. You are the one who has to live with it. You might win more fights now, but you also might be the guy that has a heart attack at 40, depending upon what you're pumping into your body.

Find out what substances in what doses (daily, weekly, monthly and yearly) you're taking, ask the doctor and then do your own research. If you find the doctor lying or, pardon the term, sugar-coating anything ... well whether you want to turn the doctor in so no one else gets pumped up with something dangerous, at least find another doctor who is willing to be honest with you.

Might also want to ask if these substances are illegal, and if he says, "Not with a doctor's prescription," ask him if the drugs are supposed to be prescribed for the purposes of gaining an athletic advantage or if they are supposed to be used in medical ways.
