[mcgwirefan37]

Here's my diet so far. Goal is to lose Body fat.

Morning.
oatmeal, water.

lunch.
PBJ, water

After Cardio
Poweraide Option (basically Propel)

Dinner.
some sort of low fat, low transfat, low cholestrol meal that dad cooks.

And watered down sweet tea (I'd go nuts if I had to drink water for a third time in a row)

Anytime after dinner.
Water

occassional snacks
snack crackers with no tranfat


Thoughts?

PB and J is cheating bro, as is the sweet tea. Also, like everyone else said you need to eat a lot more.

[JBlaze]

I'd throw in some whole-grain/multi-grain bagels along with a chicken breast or tuna for starters....

[Jayhawkk]

I can't live without my PB sammitches!

yeah you're really not eating enough calories. try getting 6-7 meals a day. Eat about 5 oz of chicken or fish with all of them. First 3 meals have oatmeal with it, last 3 have broccoli with it. Make sure you drink about 1.5 gallon of water a day put crystal light in it and it will taste awsome. That's it bro... and by the way you owe me 150 bucks..

[theshocker21]

watered down sweet tea (I'd go nuts if I had to drink water for a third time in a row)

Sweet tea? From GA?

[peterson24]

yeah, if you don't like oatmeal all the time, use brown rice. Tubberware is your friend. I cook two cups of brown rice at a time, add some black beans to that and then grill about 3 - 4 lbs of chicken at a time. It can last me about 2 - 3 days. I will cook taco meat draining the fat too and bring in whole wheat wraps to change things up. I also always have canned chicken, canned tuna, and 90 second uncle bens brown rice near me for emergencys in case i forgot to cook or forgot my food, etc. When I get home for dinner, I will cook my veges in olive oil for my fats and have whatever meat I want. It gets pretty routine after a while. good luck.

[peterson24]

to add to this, here is an avg day for me:

7:30am - 1 Scoop On Whey, 1/2 cup milk, 1/2 cup oats
10:00am - 1/2 mini wheat bagel, 1 tbsp natty pb (Not the best to combine these but its so small it really doesn't matter)
11:00am - (Pre WO) - Chicken Breast on Whole Wheat Bread
1:00 pm - (Post WO) - 1 Scoop On Whey, 1/2 - 1 cup oats, 1/2 cup milk
2:15 pm - 6-7 ozs Chicken, 1/2 cup (measured dry) brown rice, some black beans
5:00 pm - Chicken/Tuna Sandwich on Whole Wheat bread
8-9 pm - Choice of meat choice of lots of veges (Brocolli/green beans/cauliflower/etc....) cooked in some olive oil
10:30pm - Some Cottage cheese before bed

I have to vary portion sizes because I am more active other days, etc. but this could be a good baseline.

[mcgwirefan37]

I'll prolly do whey when I wake up
Then Eggs (health study says that the yoke is actually good for you now) with Rotel in the eggs (love them peppers ) w/ Turkey Bacon (much leaner than pork bacon)
Turkey sandwich (helps me not get over kill on chicken)
A Special smoothe (milk add vanilla flavoring, then bananas and strawberries)
Dinner (what ever healthy stuff dad cooks)

Could cook Dirty Rice (It's cajun, no it's not really dirty), use lean beef, cook it and I'm good to go.

how's that looking?
