Tweaking my diet due to lack of money atm.
« on: October 10, 2011, 08:29:48 AM »
So, I was thinking to further reduce the protein servings.. I had 6, reduced them to 5, now im thinking to go 4.
And add carbs to one meal to balance the loss of cals.
Does it make any sense?

5 meals

prot carbs
prot carbs
prot carbs
prot
prot

to 4 meals

prot carbs
prot carbs
prot carbs
prot carbs


Anyway, not that I eat structured day in and day out but this is my generall plan I folloe most of the days

It has always been like 40-50grms prot and 60 carbs in each meal.

I've been looking into something similar to cut down food costs. One thing you should keep in mind is that you can make incomplete proteins complete if you combine them. I never used to count protein from rice,pasta,bread,etc. before but maybe its something I can finally do if I combine them appropriately.

I'm sure you can find better articles if its something you might be interested in.

Oatmeal + quark or protein powder + olive oil + cinnamon is a cheap and tasty one
