I spend a stupid amount of money on food every month, more then many families just living by myself. Mind you, I always buy really good cuts of meat and eat 5-7 serving of steak/chicken/fish per day.
But, I don't really think its necessary to spend that much.
Oats
Whey
Whole Milk
Eggs
Box's of chicken
Cheap steaks
Trail mix (like 300-400cals per cup. and easy.)
Olive Oil
Peanuts / Peanut butter
Gaining a significant amount of muscle is hard as hell and takes 10x the discipline of loosing fat. People who have never gained more then a few lbs of muscle never understand this mind you. Ive gained substantial mass in the last few years and I cant count how many times ive eaten to much and its came right back up, great, then i have to make something else to replace those cals.
I bring food with me, wherever I go. If im going to a bar for more then about an hour, I have brought some almonds or something in my pocket that ill sneak outside to eat, or even a meal in my car. This stuff is not easy and if it is, your results probably speak for themselves.
You learn to deal with the comments, especially once people see your body improving.
I like what PMDL said and it reminds me of something Jim Wendler said:
"If you want it bad enough, you will find a way"
..sorry ranted a bit.
