Man i had to dig for this.
Essentially junk food/sugars can be absorbed quicker with less digestion, something like in the first 20% of the digestive track.
Whole food requires more digestion hence why it's more filling. Why you and I can kill a family size bag of Duritos no problem vs a good 1lb steak fills us up. The chips are 3x the calories as the steak.

I'll keep in mind if I don't start seeing progression over the next month with my routine tweaks.

@Kloi What I've found, which is consistent with experiences of many other lifters, is that it's good to leave a little in the tank when doing sets on the big 3 or similar movements. For example, if your routine on squat calls for you to do a top set of five, don't choose a weight where you have to grind out the last rep or two and barely complete the set-choose a weight where you can cleanly get all five reps and one or two more. Some use a concept called "RPE" (rate of perceived exertion) to express how hard a particular set should be; I've always though in terms of percentages and do the bulk of work on the big 3 at around 80% of max for multiple sets of 2-3.
If you are going to failure on your sets of OHP and incline db presses, you might try leaving a few reps in the tank and see how that works.

Welp I've hit another plateau across most of my pushing lifts. Been stalling on 70lb OHP and 80lb incline (DBs) so I'm going to try and run A and B days and see if I can't get past this stall.
Doing some other work on rest days to strengthen the corresponding tendons and shit since I've been having minor pain sporadically.
Will update in 2 months.
Lmao i did it on the track at the Y, around 6am. It was me and a bunch of power walking grannies.
In practice it works great and is an even better tool for self improvement/realization when applied to one's self.
He goes on to explain both men and women's core beliefs can't stand a few rounds of simple scrutiny; Wow! That's interesting why do you say that?
Socrates had said similar around 2400 years ago.
Yup, and that's why I love it. Women get so mad at me but then they start spending more time around me
