Working on diet.. Input wanted
I have a really hard time eating, especially in the morning. I am under alot of stress and usually feel nautious in the a.m.
My diet for the past 3 weeks has been(have also had a shoulder and leg injury, been out of the gym for 1 month. Going back next week):
Wake up @ 8:00
8:30 1 single shot espresso
10:00 - Chicken Breast, White rice
13:00- Chicken Breast, White Rice
16:00- Vegtables and protein
20:00- Cottage cheese, banana
Drink water throughout the day
5''10 175lbs 12-14% BF
Looking to lean up and gain lean muscle mass
I know, Diet is not the greatest.. I want to slowly fix it. I went from eating 2x a day to what I am doing now.. Slowly but surly getting better.
** Will be adding PWO shake to the mixLast edited by Hard.On; 04-20-2011 at 09:43 AM.

You didn't tell us much with that diet... how about macros? Portion sizes? What's up with the white rice? What's with the banana before bed?

Macros are what each thing your eating is made up of. Carbs, protien, fat, calories. Look on the box of chicken and it will tell you this info, or check on line.
Change the white rice to brown rice. Your stomach will be fine.
Eat the banana in the morning, or after a workout. Before bed is not a good time for this food.

ok, so were getting a little closer, add some oats to your 830 meal and PWO shake, i find blending em up makes go down real easy.
its a fairly simple diet so macros can easily be worked out. I used fitnesspal.com and lean mass or getting fat is the difference on whether to work out macros or not.

Still not much info. Hard to help without macros, but it doesn't look like a lot of food.

I went with MR-FQ320
I typed what you wrote previously in google but it brought me to a completly different page. So were good now
Net Calories Consumed* / Day 2,920 Calories / Day
Carbs / Day 402 g
Fat / Day 97 g
Protein / Day 110 g
Thats what the website says I should do to achieve my goals.... Seems wrong

Yeah don't take notice of that macro split, you need at least 200g of protein split into 6 meals, keep fats as low as possible as you will naturally get some anyway, idk say shoot for about 300g of carbs split into the first five meals of the day to go with the protein, now how about a diet plan with macros.

I will go through the day and use that site and update when completed.

TOTAL: 2200 calories 257g carbs 62g fat 160g protein
THis is where I will finish today. I missed a meal. That screwed me,
I own my own biz and I often get caught up in what im doing.
Tomorrow I will have to try harder..
MR FQ.. any easy way to transfer the meals from that site to this one?

Sounds like you are on the right track. Just get all your meals in. You split looks pretty good on the 2200 cal day, just get in another meal and you will be doing great.
