i think you can eat anything too but you need to eat alot of raw carrots, and plenty of water and grapejuice before bed

those raw carrots give you a whole new kind of energy

if one's not prepping for a show and just wants to stay in great shape everyday, why even count calories? 
it ain't even that complicated.  why not just use common sense and listen to your body re when, what and how much to eat each day?

[galeniko]

adam, do a monthly bloodwork checkout id be very curious, really.

and post up the foods, not every single piece, but just to get a rough idea.

Its not and I could do it, but I like to eat as much as I possibly can.  Also, when I make elaborate creations at home, it would be near impossible to play guess the calories, especially when I am making something like a Chocolate Truffle Cake.

Sometimes I do go months without counting anything and I can be pretty accurate.  When I want to really dial it all in, I count.  Simple as that.

Plus, I like to document my nutrition for my own purposes.  Its interesting how eating what I like, easily meets my needs.  Notice my Fiber count is usually high.

[galeniko]

how much sugar do you eat a day?

any liquid sugar?

alcohol?

[TrueGrit]

how much sugar do you eat a day?

any liquid sugar?

alcohol?

No Alcohol.  I do not drink anything.  I used to drink expensive wine every now and then, just one to three glasses a week but have not done that in a few years.  I might drink one or two beer a year.
Sugar will vary according to whatever I want.

For that February 1st for instance. I had 48 grams of fiber and 100 grams of sugar

Some days the sugar will be much higher, for instance, one day I made those Captain Crunch Peanut Butter Marshmallow Bars.  It just depends on what I feel like making or eating.

I do not always take a whey protein either.  I have it around when I am extremely busy.  Its totally not necessary, but if you need it, the cheapest is the best.  You can get that body fortress stuff from amazon for like 11 dollars.  No reason to pay anymore than that.


I use the Chocolate Peanut Butter flavor.  I add 2 Tablespoons of Creamy Peanut Butter (real peanut butter like JIFF or Peter Pan, not that organic/oil laden bullshit), 5 grams Dutch Process Cocoa Powder, and 1 Cup of whole milk and mix with an immersion blender.  Sometimes I will add 150-300 more calories of ice cream to it to make it a milkshake.

Ive been semi-using adams method. ... I simply eyeball my calories and eat primarily chicken, fish, and lean beef steaks, brown rice and veggies. .. but I leave a couple hundred calories underneath my target for extra items like sugary sauces or the occasional desert.

I find its much easier to stay on a diet like this and also that I see no real difference in results by adding in a sugary/fatty treat now and then as long as im under my caloric limit.

keep in mind im not low BF yet, still in the mid/low teens, so this may change as I have to really tighten my diet up.

I eat 'clean' because it allows me maximum food for my caloric target... and I liberally use seasonings and sauces, makes chicken a lot more tolerable day in and day out. Also simple to cook chicken/fish/sirloin/ribeye in bulk.

No Alcohol.  I do not drink anything.  I used to drink expensive wine every now and then, just one to three glasses a week but have not done that in a few years.  I might drink one or two beer a year.

How does one do that?

[Master Blaster]

I need to drink...I mean how do you not want to stab people in the neck with pencils?

There isn`t a pencil factory making enough pencils for the both of us to use for that my friend. 

[Cleanest Natural]

haha I find it amusing how Apenis claims to be extremely "busy"

or get ripped on any kind of foods

yet, he has a hormonized inshape pic from 9 years ago while in other pics or the video with Branch he is quite the twink.
