LMD- I wish I knew then what I know now, so props to you. Your grocery list looks like mine now, but in college, it was something like:
Crunch Berries
Ghostbusters cereal
non-natty PB
Schmidt, Pabst BR, or whatever else sold for $3 a 12-pack
cheap vodka, brandy
frozen pizza

...small wonder I never played college ball! Well...that, and that UC Santa Cruz doesn't play football. Lotsa stoned frisbee, though...

 

[LakeMountD]

LM no fruit? by the way do u play for FSU bro ?

Haha no fruit because I can't afford it . I would go through it too quickly for it to be really affordable since I would put it in my cottage cheese (which I forgot to put on the list) and Oatmeal which I eat a lot of.

And yes I play Cornerback for FSU.


Milwood- Haha its funny you say that because I say that to kids I know who are still in high school. I mean I am 21 and if I knew then (when i was like 16) what I knew now I would have easily been recruited!

 

[iwannagetbig]

High protein skim milk(14g per 8 oz)

Where do you get this stuff?

 

[iwannagetbig]

Hormel Turkey Chili

Never heard of this stuff. Any good?

 

[CEDeoudes59]

hahaha Ghostbusters cereal - did it come with a prize

 

[CEDeoudes59]

I mean I am 21 and if I knew then (when i was like 16) what I knew now I would have easily been recruited!

I feel the same way, whether it be football or top tier ice hockey.
At that age (16) you can go overboard and do yourself quite a bit of harm if you get too aggressive. Ignorance is bliss in terms of teens and anabolics.

Lake your story is really inspirational - and that's why your an AM McDonalds All American!

Yeah, the turkey chili is pretty good. 98% fat free. I like to add a lot of stuff to it sometimes. Extra beans or rice, fat free cheese, hot sauce, salsa, extra can of chicken or even a can of drained and rinced tuna (i swear i can't taste it).

 

[Sixpack]

Great to hear man so do you start or get any playing time etc ? As I will watch for ya this year I am a loyal canes fan sorry hehe. YOur guys QB has been through some tough times as of late. I played 4 years of college ball also at a D-2 school wide out at a school in the MIdwest. I teach down here in AZ now and personal train. Would you mind sharing some of FSU offseason agility programs workouts etc? I work with a number of athlets and now coach high school football. I work with DB's and receivers and am always looking for new drills etc. My email is [email protected]
Thanks and best of luck in your season

Actually I wasn't chosen for this . I was like a backup hahahaha. :sad:


Iwannagetbig- yeah the turkey chili is awesome, I have everyone on the third floor of the apartment complex addicted .

 

[CEDeoudes59]

yo is that Turkey Chili in a can? Hormel did you say?

 

[LakeMountD]

Yeah it is in a can and yes it is Hormel. 1.59/can at Publix, sometimes they have sales and make it 2 for $2. You can't really beat it when you compare it to larger named brands like Campbells, plus it has around 35 grams of protein, 52 grams of carbs (low gi legumes), like 6 grams of fat (most of which unsat) and it is something like 400 calories total

In Publix it is usually on the bottom shelf on the same isle as soups but not near the soups, its more towards the middle of the isle. In a red can.

 

[BigVrunga]

My girlfriend makes awesome Turkey chili...

I actually just got back from the store, here's what I bought:

oatmeal
turkey chili
black beans
bread
milk
eggs
cottage cheese (usually, but the bastards were out)
chicken breasts
picante
tuna
fat free miracle whip
hot sauce

 

[Ant.]

This is turning into a pretty good thread. Im definitely gonna check out the turkey chilli and the omega-3 wheat spagetti. I need more good carb sources.

 

[Grifter]

hmm, never looked into turkey chili. Is it something that tastes good enough to just pop the can open, heat and eat? or is it something you need to make a recipe with? Need something like that, thats quick for me to eat while at work during my 15 min breaks.

ya, I just open the can, throw some pepper and half a can of black beans in it, then heat for a few minutes. It tastes pretty good, but if you asked my friends that's not saying much from me, so you definately need to try it out.

When your looking at the store it is on the right side :wave:

In fact, if you were to make a grid of any regular sized publix it would be at the precise three dimensional coordinates of :think: 345.882,127.999,2.334

 

[CEDeoudes59]

345.882,127.999,2.334

found it.

it's got a lot of sodium, but thats true of all canned goods usually. Shall give it a try.

 

[iwannagetbig]

Hormel Turkey Chili w/ Beans...

 

[CEDeoudes59]

that's one, mine is fat-free with beans.
Nearly simply nutritional line however

thanks for that post!

 

[BigVrunga]

I like to get salsa and baked tostitos as a snack sometimes too...The baked corn chips are great!

Note the ingredients: Corn and salt!

Good call! I like the fac there is no fat and 20 chips is a great serving size for that low of calories. I found some peach flavored salsa the other day and it was GREAT!

here's the info for the turkey chili w/o beans:

Exactly! Most regular 'fried' chips have nearly 10 TIMES the fat that the baked corn chips do. Plus, the baked chips seem to stay fresh much longer.

And salsa is nearly guilt-free, as long as you watch your Na intake.

[rjones]

I 've been buying alot of beans recently. They are cheap and pretty healthy with plenty of fiber.

 

[Moyer]

A couple good salsa ideas: cottage cheese & refried beans (both fat free).

You can mixc ottage cheese about 50/50 w/ salsa, &/or add refried beans & fat free sour cream. Pretty good stuff. Probably lowers the GI of the chips quite a bit too. One of my favorite snacks.

 

[Grifter]

The turkey chili wouldn't be a wise choice if i were trying to keep the bloat under control would it?

 

[BigVrunga]

Not if it has too much sodium...
