I had a chocolate milk and a banana for first breakfast and some kind of Tina made Italian lasagna type stuff for second breakfast.

Army recruiters would feed the skinny kids chocolate milk and bananas to get them up to the minimum weight. I was on the opposite end of that spectrum

I was one of the skinny ones, gained 40 lbs in basic. They didn't give me choclit milk or bananas, though. I was hungry all the time, first thing I did when I got a pass out of the company area was run down the street to a diary queen kind of place and get a big chocolate malt and cheeseburger. Last duty station had a place on base with big chocolate malts, big cheeseburgers, and a big bowl of chili for something like a buck & a half. My lunch 3 or 4 times a week. I'd weigh 300 lbs next month if I ate like that now.

Morning Moldy and Russ! I used to make my own milkshakes with raw eggs and Hershey syrup to gain weight, don't seem to have that issue any longer either.
