Ok so I thought I would make a place where people could post their LG meals, for fun and as idea space for others starting out on Lean Gains who need alittle inspiration in food.

I will try posting some meals I eat later.

Good idea for a thread. I myself am interested in what Lean Gains is all about and rather in the dark about what to eat.

I can't give you the macro breakdown (don't have my excel on hand), but here's a common post-workout meal for me:

2x chicken breasts 4.8oz each or 9.6oz total OR ~9 oz 96/4 ground beef
Oatmeal (1 cup of oats in 1.5 cups of skim milk)
Either a spinach, grain, sundried tomato, or "carrot cake" bagel lathered in fat free cheese (this bagel is great, no artificial sugars in it, made from whole weat/whole grain, so pretty clean carb source for a bread =p)

Again, can't really recall what this breaks down as but I'm pretty sure it nets me around 100g carbs and at least 80g animal protein (from milk, cheese, and meat).

Yes, workout 6AM, break fast at 12PM, eat until 8PM, do it again.

I take 10g HumaPro EAA and 4 caps NTBM Gear at 5:30AM, 10g protein intraworkout, 10g BCAA and 4 caps NTBM Gear at 9AM, and sometimes another 10g BCAA at 11AM, and 5g HumaPro EAA pre-bed around 11PM-12AM.

I also take 2 tabs Universal Uni-Liver or Beef Aminos with meals, and BCAA/EAA.

I am just about to start the Leangains diet having lost about 20kg and got my bf down to about 14%. I have hit a plateau in my aim to get tounder 10% bf.

So I will follow the fasting principles etc (hardest part will be giving up my morning latte) and have been thinking about my average daily
meals on the plan. I thought I would just run it past here and see what others thought if that’s ok.

I will be training in the morning so break my fast at 12pm. I heard that the first meal should be the largest so was thinking of having this:

200 g Low fat mince beef or chicken maybe fish (as a burger) on a wholemeal bun with salad (no cheese)
100-150 g of broccoli
oatmeal with a bit of honey for ‘dessert’

Meal 2 would be about 150g of brown rice

Meal 3 would be 200g of meat (steak, chicken or fish) and about 100g of vegies. I might also have some casein protein then. Does it matter if I have it 3 hours before bedtime?

That is about 160g of protein which is ok I think as I weigh about 150 pounds.

Any thoughts?
