    Define 'clean diet'

    Had this posted in another Q&A forum, was directed here... So...
    When doing a Deca/Test/Dbol cycle, what do define as clean diet? Especially to avoid bloating. I eat really well now, but in my research I see people paying alot of attention to this. What exactly do you recommend for protien, carb, sugar, sodium, water, fat, etc intake?

    Is it advisable to be on a basically all protien/high protien, low to no carb/sugar/sodium, diet? Any tips from experience is appreciated...

    right up your daily diet mate then go from there read the stickys and compare yours to them, simple things, like low sodium and white carbs will keep most of the bloat down, all the best

    Regardless of being on a cycle or not, clean eating is clean eating. Clean eating is defined as eating as natural as possible - i.e. no processed foods. Basically if you can kill it, pick it, grow it, etc. - you can eat it.

    Oats, sweet potatoes, brown rice, yams are examples of carbs. Fiberous veggies, etc. Proteins are obvious - meats, eggs, fish, etc. Fats - avacado, natural peanut butter, nuts...

    My daily diet is pretty basic, I'm almost all organic, high protien, etc. I was a heavy kid and dropped it at 18, been lifting ever since, 35 now. I'm 5'7 175 lbs, and about 12% body fat. I prepare most of my meals all at once on Sunday and eat throughout the week to keep me on a tight schedule.

    Breakfast: is either Oatmeal with a scoop of protien and PB, or 2 Chicken breasts with soy cheese and salsa.
    Snack: brown rice with chicken and veggies stir fried in olive oil and terriyaki sauce
    Lunch: Baked chicken tenders or grilled chicken breast on whole grain bread
    Snack: Banana and a couple hard boiled eggs
    Gym...
    Post Gym: Protien scoop within 10 minutes after workout
    Dinner: Chick, Tuna, or Beef, with veggies

    No dairy for me, which sucks, but mother nature told me no!

    I've been a little loose lately, add in some fruit, almond milk, or whatever here and there, and you got it. I'm just wondering for my cycle, this but basically more? How much does alcohol and caffiene effect the cycle?

    In my research I had just seen people talking about a 'clean diet' (Which I already thought I was kind of doing) but also talking alot aboug sodium and cholesterol and getting really detailed. I just wanted to make sure what I was thinking was what y'all were talking about.

    I have a body that tends to put on fat pretty easily, size in muscle comes a close second, cutting is a bitch. I have to be on it, just to be decent.

    You're pretty clean already. There are people on here who get extreme, and it all depends on how hardcore you want to get. If you REALLY want to eat clean, you wouldn't be eating high sodium products like teriakyi, etc.

    Post up your diet with all macro info (pro/carbs/fat/cals) and I will try to help you tweak it. Be sure to include time of day for everything as well.

    Hey, thanks man, I'll do the best I can here. The Terryaki was just a treat so I could choke down the chicken. I can deal with oil and a non salted seasoning like basil or nothing at all. So here it is:

    7 AM: Cup of black coffee
    3/4 cup of oatmeal (3.75g fat, 40g Carb, 9g Protien, 225 cal), on scoop just whey protien (2g fat, 3g carb, 21g protien, 114 cal), one tablespoon Peanut Butter (8g fat, 1.5g sat fat, 4g carb, 4g protien, 85 cal)
    *glass of water for vitamins

    9:30 AM: Brown rice 1/2 cup(1.5g Fat, 34g Carb, 3g Protien, 150 Cal) with one chicken breast (5g fat, 0 carb, 41g protien, 210 cal) mixed veggies (don't know the content)
    *1 liter carbonated no sugar, no caffiene, no sodium water

    12:30: Chicken breast (5g fat, 0 carb, 41g protien, 210 cal) sandwich with slice of soycheese(?), lettuce(?) and 2 slices whole grain bread (3g fat, 36g carb, 8g protien, 200 cal)
    *Bottle of powerade zero (no cal, etc)

    2:00: Banana (?) and 2 hardboiled eggs (Fat 9g, 1g Carb, 12g Protien, 140 cal)

    On way to gym: Diet Mountain Dew and one cup black coffee, at gym diet rockstar, no sugar.

    6:30 PM: Post gym: protien shake whey protien (2g fat, 3g carb, 21g protien, 114 cal)
    7:30: Grilled chicken breast (5g fat, 0 carb, 41g protien, 210 cal), or beef, or tuna, with steamed veggies.

    ** sometimes I have a second banana, or once a week I have cheat day, and I do snack randomly, handful of raisins or almonds, or glass of almond milk, but it's all random. I have no problem tightening this up, my discipline is pretty up there when I dedicate. I lost 120 lbs 15 years ago, and have been pretty tight since then, so this does mean alot to me and I'm not wasting time So thanks for your help!
