Well, to one who lives on welfare it probably is

Let me see what your diet looks like....

Not really, some of us just don't see the need to spend money on food. My diet is quite simple.

Vitamins: 1000mg vitamin C, progressive multi vitamin, fish oil cap
Meal 1: 1/2 cup oatmeal, 1/4 cup skim milk, 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, 2 scoops whey, 4 tablespoons wheat germ
Meal 2: 1 chicken breast, 5 egg whites, brocolli (1 glucosamine and chondroitine tab)
Meal 3: 1 can of tuna, 5 egg whites, brocolli ((1 glucosamine and chondroitine tab)
Meal 4: 1 chicken breast, 5 egg whites, brocolli (1 glucosamine and chondroitine tab)
Meal 5: 1/2 cup oatmeal, 2 scoops whey, 1/4 cup skim milk
Meal 6: 2 scoops of muscle milk, either in water or skim milk
Vitamins: 1000mg vitamin C, progressive multi vitamin, fish oil cap

Nothing special.

Wow, nice diet although your carbs are VERY low, 50 a day only? That's less then me. Also with such a good diet I am surprised you use muscle milk. You training for a show?

I'm not a big *cough* fat *cough* guy like get_bigger but I do fine for myself

. I'm not a bodybuilder, I use weights to stay healthy and for functional strength. So I just use diet to supplement that. In retro I should add more carbs, I think it is more than 50 though.

My training program is more interesting than my diet:

Diet looks fine, I would lower the fat intake like Adonis said. And your diet does look expensive. Might want to throw can of tuna to replace the salmon, or some chicken.
Also yeah a cheat meal or cheat day does kick start the metabolism but were talking after like 4 weeks of sticking to a diet is when that happens, and you have to be at a low BF % to really do it for it to be effective.
Well keep us posted.

Thanks for the advice youandme. Dang, 4 weeks? I thought your metabolism adjusted to your intake quicker than that. We will see how it goes. I have dropped the fat intake to around 100 g's a day from 160, which I mostly get from my protein shakes and almonds. I have been alternating fish and chicken as the staple of my diet every other day for the last couple days so thats fine. I have also added green beans here and there. My problem is fluctating my carb intake day to day with something other than oatmeal $:-\$ Any suggestions?

161g fat = 1449 calories. Do you realize that your diet was 40-50% fat, wtf kind of a diet is that?

100g fat is still on the high end.

Bast175 · « **Reply #34 on:** April 05, 2006, 06:49:25 PM »

Also, how does a protein shake have 18g fat in it?? Are you sure about that?

Well, it's a f**king kind of diet thats working. I am losing weight and no muscle so far so thats what I am gonna keep on doing. And I have cut my fat intake in half.

Muscle Milk is high on the fat side, read a label.

Stay the course as best as you can bro. Your bet will payoff...7 weeks are gonna come and go anyway, so you might as well look better for it, than worse.
My diet is close to yours, but i have a sneak meal every 3rd day and it seems to help.

Soon you wont need cardio on this plan..the diet alone will work.

youandme · « **Reply #47 on:** April 29, 2006, 10:36:08 PM »

Need variety in carbs replace with grits, or rice. If your diet is working for now then great stick with it. But your body doesnt adapt to the food that fast, in fact if you binge to much you can hurt yourself!!! Insulin resistance, sticking to a clena diet then bombarding the body with crap, hurts the intestines, and soon your body adapts, and that is bad!! That is why you should not cheat as much, 4 weeks and then boom have a cheat meal, and work out. The next step you can do to take this diet up a notch will simply be to replace your protein shake with a more cleaner brand, to replace the amount of fat mm has

GET_BIGGER · « **Reply #48 on:** May 01, 2006, 08:05:06 AM »

Sounds good guys, thanks for the advice. My clean diet is doing great for me, just eating the right way I can tell a big difference. I am having a cheat meal about once a week and am trying to keep even them as clean as possible. Weight wise it is crazy and I quit trying to figure it out. I'm on a EC stack, cut my protein shakes to pre and post workout only, taking explode, still on MM, eliptical 3 x's a week at 45 min and I am up to 218. Been gaining weight so I hvae been keeping tabs on my waistline and it is getting smaller despite gaining weight. So something must be retaining water or something....I dunno. But I am eating clean and looking better and getting stronger so I'm gonna keep doing what I'm doing.
