Soy nuts
Avacodoe
Olive Oil (for cookin fish, chicken breast etc)
Whole wheat bread
Natural Peanut Butter
Light Jam spread
Soy beverage
Thats pretty much my shopping list.
What I try to do is get my carbs in the morning and after I work out at night. For example when I wake up I will eat my a cup of oatmeal with some blueberries and have a protein shake as well. Then throughout the day I snack on high prtoein foods and some fats in the olive oil and the avacadoe and such, I will never mix carbs and fats together. I will also have protein shakes regularly throughout the day and immediately after i work out, and right before I go to bed at night. I also get my other carbs in after my workout in the form of brown rice for example.
Please let me know what you think guys as I am really trying to nail this diet, I have been on this diet for about 3 months or so now, and have seen pretty good results. I am down to about 8.5 or 10 percent body fat and my training is going real well but I jsut want to know what I could improve upon in my diet as that to me, is the most important part of training.
