wow !! i like it i like it !!!

but steak though?! wow that must get expensive no?

not so expensive if you go to the RESTURANT DEPOT, its like a costco or sams club on steriods ,

they sell in super bulk but at really low prices, the catch is you need to be in the industry or know someone who is to buy there,

they sell boneless skinless chicken breast for 1.15lb, but you have to buy 10 lbs, still a steal

sams club sells a bag of like 17 8-10oz chicken breasts boneless/skinless for $11.99 !!!

beat that !!!

Carbs in your meal 1 looks like you calculated it wrong... 1 cup of oatmeal has about 60 carbs, a banana has around 30, and 2 slices of bread should be around 40.... making the total 130 instead of 40. Also, from what I've heard, fructose doesn't cause an insulin spike like dextrose does (postworkout) so you may prefer dextrose there.
