Hey guys, I've been out of the gym for a while due to an inflamed rotator cuff and starting my own business... but anyway, I'm back and I'm a little bothered by the fact that I lost over 10 pounds by being out for 2 months. So I'm trying to get my nutrition in check and I'd like to pass the basic diet structure I'm using past you guys.
6:30 AM
* Home Made Fruit Smoothie (Bananna, Apple, Raspberry, Blueberry, Blackberry, Pineapple, Strawberry, Carrots, Spinach, Broccoli, Honey, Hemp Protein, Rice Protein, Orange Juice, Pomegranite Juice, 2 tbsp Splenda) This has something like 8-10 grams of protein in it
* Whole grain bagel w/ large amount of PB and light honey (~10g protein)
9:00 AM
* 2x Hard Boiled Eggs
* 1x Banana
11:00 AM
* Pasta Bowl (Whole Grain Penne Noodles, Tomato Puree, Red Onions, Mushrooms, Whole Garlic, 0.4 Lbs Lean chicken or Turkey)
* Spinach and Broccoli Salad w/ Smart Balance "Butter" substitute
* Occasionally if I forget to make my pasta in advance I'll go to whatever fast food place I am feeling that day and get their chicken sandwich and a salad. This is at most 1 day a week.
1:00 PM
* Whole grain bagel w/ large amount of PB and light honey (~10g protein)
3:00 PM
* 2x Hard Boiled Eggs
* 1x Banana
4:30 PM
* 2x Hard Boiled Eggs
* 1x Banana
GYM @ 5:30 PM
* Gatorade / Syntrax Nectar / Creatine Mixture (~5g protein)
Driving Home at 6:30 PM
* 2 Scoops Whey protein (about 40 grams protein)
Dinner around 7:30 PM
This varies alot but I generally start with a base of whole grain rolls and either broccoli or brussel sprouts... then generally I'll have some sort of meat dish with it. I would estimate I eat 20-30 grams of protein here on an average day.
-----
I have tried to include a variety of fruits and vegetables in my diet and an absolute minimum of processed foods. The only concern I have is that I may have too many carbs and too little protein but I seem to be really tired with less carbs and more protein would probably move my calories to the "Jake gets fat" range.
Weekends I tend to get off schedule a bit but I strive to eat often and have quality foods much like the week. I tend to cheat on Saturday and have a pastry or something like that. I crave pastries like they are crack, especially cinnamon rolls.
have been known to be wrong and I'm open to suggestions or comments. Thanks all.
