some protein meals i will substitute egg whites for chicken.

i also consume 25g of glutamine daily
morning/nite multivitain
9g of flax seed oil spread out daily


i know i need about 50 more grams of protein, should it come from whole foods or could it come from a shake?

Check the cutting sticky. You need to make sure you are including fats OR carbs with your protein every meal. ex: midmorn-tuna, add a tbsp of mayo or flax oil so you have a pro/fat meal. Ideally your PWO should be dextrose and whey. Use sweetarts untill you get some dextrose, 2:1 ratio, twice as much dextrose as protein. If your cutting you are sure eating alot of sugar, and sugar=fat ex: grape juice applesauce. Add some ranch dressing to your salad for lunch. Breakfast seems to be okay.

wouldnt he want to add more carbs to lunch? and make his mid-morn. meal a pro/fat?

[uttyler dude]

ok, so i am consuming too much sugar post workout. i thought you were supposed to consume simple carbs post workout? i will pick up some sweetarts. also isn't mayo and ranch dressing full of unhealthy fats? i am not doubting anything you guys are saying just trying to get my bearings thats all.

-No Fructose PWO its metabolized in liver not quite as effective still deceant i suppose, get sucrose(whiteSugar) or better yet dextrose which is closest realitive to Glucose. 2:1 Ratio C|P
-when u eat tuna eat flax w/ it (AND SPLENDA! LOL) ITS what ~SC~ would do!
-With your chicken salad try smalls serving of BrownRice or a 4oz YAM(THEY OWN)
-Eat like a Jug of FatFree Cottage CHeese for PreWorkout has mad aminos Simple Sugars and Long Lasting Protein.
-I eat my PPWO about 30min after shake since Whey Isolate is Metabo'd in about 30min and i like a constant streem of Protein in my sys. GOD i would hook up a Whey I.V. if i could
-For your Final Meal Eat Meat and Fat Most protein shakes wont last your whole night unless its like Caesin... Try Salmon w/ tbs Flax or 1.5tbs NPButtr
or some sort of lean meat and drink a bottle of Olive Oil
