    pasta & cheese

    I'm doin a cutting diet now and was wondering what your thoughts were on using a low-carb pasta as an occassional substitute for brown rice?

    Also, I was wondering if it was possible to use cheese (parmesan mostly) in the cutting diet also?

    Usually as a rule of thumb, dairy is almost completely cut out during a cutting diet.

    and for pasta if YOU MUST HAVE pasta, use the whole wheat kind. but there are other things you can use beside brown rice ( potatoes, sweet potatoes, oatmeal is ok, yams)

    oat meal isnt okay ppwo.. (refer to someother thread floating around regarding ppwo nutrition).. dairy isnt a total no-no.. however if you mind being bloated you shouldnt be eating it.. three pasta and cheese = carbs and fat = huge no no..

    So i just relooked at the cutting sticky. It suggests to do cardio on an empty stomach in the AM. However, the first meal is lean protein and a 1/2 cup of oatmeal. Any particular reason why?

    The amount of parmesan cheese put on top of pasta is nothing. It'll add sodium if anything. You might get a gram of fat and likewise a half gram of sodium out of a tablespoon.

    I have to read up on this oatmeal stuff, I must be out of the loop, I still utilize it ppwo.

    If your tierd of brown rice try parboiled rice, its white with lower GI and tastes good, i use it both for bulking and cutting.
