I'd suggest 200-250g protein, load up on the carbs and fats.
Dark said somethign smart, finally...(  ), if you are eating junk food all the time, this will make most people fat, but ectos can get away with it. So if it's not making you fat and you need the calories, I see nothing wrong with it honestly.
People are afraid to tell you to dirty up your diet, but you can't eat 4000 calories of clean food very easily, andi fyou need that many every day , then you need to go dirty up that diet on occasion.

Haha that's the last time I'll say anything smart. From now on, I'll stick to being sarcastic once again...
