Wasnt sure if there is a spot for information about diet tips for those whose jobs may require 5+ hours of no food or drink intake. You dont necessarily have to be in the medical field to contribute to this thread just looking for tips from people who go a long time without food or water and are on cycle so have micromanaging to do. I can personally be scrubbed in on cases for hours without a break and find myself getting dehydrated and worry i am doing my cycle injustice.
 
Look into Intermittent Fasting, Lean Gains, Carb Backloading, etc.

There are tons of information on fasting style diets and while you aren't really "fasting" since you may eat breakfast than not eat again till dinner, they give you a better understanding on how to focus your macros. It would be more difficult to gain efficiently but at the same time there is no reason you couldn't still get decent results. You may just have to look more into adding your macros in around "odd" hours. Like drinking a shake when you wake up to piss at night etc.
 
I eat every break I get. I'm medical as well. Being in the OR is a hard one though if your scrubbed in.
 
Then there isn't a whole lot else you can do. I can't imagine anyone being okay with you popping a shake mid surgery lol. Since you aren't able to eat as often, I would invest in some casein protein and make sure every meal you do have is calorie dense.
 
I easily go 5hrs most days without eating, maintain my size and strength no problem. Cant do the no liquids though.
Dont get bogged down in broscience... many old school bodybuilders only ate twice a day and did just fine. Jack Lalane is one that comes to mind...
Good luck.
 
I think most of the broscience around eating has to do with people wanting to get incredibly big. Jack Lalane was in great shape but let's be real... He wasn't a 240+lb guy at sub 10 bodyfat. At that level you need as much time as possible to eat and spread out macros since you can't pound 5k+ calories
 
Hey Mass is this something that u have to do every single day of the week or maybe a few times a week?

As said there r plenty that only eat 2-3 x a day that get deceit size and manage to get pretty lean too.

But it would be much easier to manage if u could eat in a 2-3 hr window.

You'll need to experiment with lower carb/higher fat diets. eating higher fat keeps you feeling fuller for longer. That, or do free diet/training plans to help your fat ass charge nurse get into shape and maybe she'll hook you up...

I agree with this here. When I was younger I was bigger and in better shape than I am now and I ate 3 meals a day. Breakfast, lunch and dinner. No snacks, bcaa, protein Shakes or any other supps. I couldn't afford things like that. But all three meals were pretty big so my cals more than likely evened out to me breaking my meals into 5-6. All you can do is what you can. You're not on a pro stage with endorsements and a purse on the line, so I wouldn't sweat it if you're making progress and happy with your gains. My only advice is if you have a heads up before getting scrubbed, try to slam a casein shake and a complex carb like a wheat bagel if you have the time or one of the two for some sort of energy.

yea this paycheck I plan on stocking up on some protein shakes to store in my locker, just the other day i got screwed. Went to sleep at 730pm cause I was exhausted got up late for work couldnt eat breakfast got put straight into a shit case from 7am-1130am, mid way thru the case I was doubling over in pain from dehydration, had no water intake from moment of falling asleep to getting relieved from morning case. by the time I could eat my stomach was in so much disarray I could hardly finish 6oz chicken and a cup of rice, slamming a protein shake after put me over and had me burping everything up during the next case smh.

Unfortunately it's true. The porn industry was very misleading for me, as a young man headed into nursing... Luckily, I'm married to a nurse too... and she's fucking HOT
