drop the corn it's a useless starch. Replace it with brown rice, wheat pasta, black beans, or sweet potatoe. Also looks like you are relying on to many protein shakes...try to incorporate more whole foods like chicken or tuna.

Most people would avoid eating fats around your weight training especially PWO.
I can't remember why fats are bad. I use 30-50 grams protein with 50-75 grams carb PWO. I bump the protein and lower the carbs when cutting.

Pwo?
-

PWO = post workout. Fats slow down absorption, so when you body is starving for nutrients that you have depleted during your workout it is important to replenish these nutrients as soon as possible (normally within 30 minutes of your workout). So fats would be bad due to them slowing down absorption.

I think its something to do with fat being slow digesting so that it will slow down your bodies digestion of protein and simple sugars post workout.

watch oatmeal in packs, has MAD sugar. also be careful on yogurt source, can be loaded with sugar also. stray from the canned veg, lots of sodium and less nutritional benefit than fresh. also dont rely on protein bars, they are unreliable sources of protein, even though they may claiim to have "x" grams of protein, rarely is it all available for your body to use. you are getting the right idea but keep searching the diet forums for some more info. best of luck bro

also read into separating your meals into pro/fat and pro/carb, not mixing carbs and fat

what oatmeal should I be eating?
-
02-11-2008, 11:39 AM #16
regular, plain oatmeal. You can add splenda to sweeten things up.
-
02-11-2008, 11:55 AM #17
i would avoid all "Supplements" as much as possible and us real food inplace of shakes and bars, as real food is far more anabolic

i would never have whey protein before bed... whey is absorbed w/in 45min thus making it a horrid choice for this time frame

well actually I just switched to a lean protien does that make any diff or would u suggest something else? also I thought that the peanutbutter was slow protein?
-
02-13-2008, 06:38 PM #22
I'm not nutrition expert, but what I do know is...
Make sure to drink whey shake as soon as you wake, while sleeping you are essentailly fasting. Thats where breakfast got its name 'break" "fast"
Also before bed eat cottage cheese, in lamens terms it is like a time released protein (just slow digesting)

use avacado inplace of pineapple for sure.
not bad, try to get more veggies for phytonutrients
like spiniche in the AM and asparagus at night
-
02-14-2008, 10:01 AM #25
lil slim, post up the macros for each meal. it will show you and us how many grams of what is in each meal, as well as totals for the day. much easier for one to put a diet into perspective when the macros are listed.
-
02-14-2008, 02:31 PM #26
Whats everyone think about milk? I don't drink it, I guess Skim milk is alright, but isn't there a ton of sugar in it.
I always mix my protein powder with water.
-
02-14-2008, 03:38 PM #27
nope, milk is a very good source of protein and its sugar actually a very slow digesting form of carbohydrate.
and you dont need whey in the morning because your not truly fasted, glycogen in your muscles and liver will not be "EMPTY" and in most cases whey is utilized as an energy form rather than a protein source due to its high BA

so shakes are a personal preference...but when if u are gonna use shakes is the right time to use em?
morning + PWO
morning + before bed
PWO + before bed
Pre workout + post workout (seems kinda popular round here)
-
02-15-2008, 10:15 PM #35
before bed if its casein/soy blend.
u can take it in the morning but i would opt for egg protein over any other type as egg is a VERY high BA but still lasts much longer than whey.
pwo is fine.
you really need WHOLE food pre work out as you want a long lasting energy/protein source during ur training session
-
02-16-2008, 11:05 AM #36
pwo for me.

Hey tai can u school me on this casein/soy blend not really sure what casein is...but are u saying this is what u mix the protien into
Also once again Id like to thank the two of ya for helpin me work on my diet...mad respect for both of ya
-
02-16-2008, 12:55 PM #38
Casein is a type of protein
There are a few types Soy, Whey, Casein to name a few
Casein is long digesting, Whey is short digesting
Therefore you wanna have long digesting before bed, cuz you obviously won't be able to eat protein while asleep.
Whey is good for after workout cuz it's digested in like 30 min
Tai corret me if I'm wrong about any of this stuff, you seem to know your shit.
