It seems that I have missed the first note in this thread and
changing my message acceptance date doesn't affect things much.
But, from what I can tell, it deals with keeping your fat intake
between 10 and 20 percent and a question arose as to how it could
be done and still be a meat eater. As a lifter/builder, I now do
it every day....
the following is the meal routine that I took on today, for instance:
Breakfast: whole grapefruit (ruby red)
one low fat dannon yogurt
5 egg whites (egg whites contain NO colesterol
and little of the egg's fat)
Mid morning snack: 8 rice cakes (yeah yeah, I can hear you saying
OUCH! STYROFOAM! Actually,the flavored varieties
aren't all that bad)
Lunch: 2.5 cups cooked rice
10 ounces turkey breast
1 nectarine
Mid afternoon snack: 1 low fat dannon yogurt mixed with .5 cups rice
Dinner: about 10 ounces chicken breast
two baked potatoes
six pieces of broccoli (sp?)
During the day, I drank about 50 ounces total of water, 50 ounces of
Skim Milk, 30 ounces of Apple Juice and 20 ounces of Coke... I also
take Amino Acid tablets, which provide me with an additional 6 or so
grams of protein per meal.
The total result on this follows:
5160 calories
(yes yes, but I'm an extremely active individual and stand
at 7'0" and weigh 285#)
305 Grams protein
844 Grams Carbs
22.4 Grams Dietary Fiber
62.4 Grams total fat (24.3 which were saturated)
539 Mg Cholesterol
Total of Calories from:
protein: 24%
Carbs 65%
fat 11%
I went on a regimin similiar to this about 8 months ago when I
started training again for the first time in 4 years. The first thing I
noticed is that I was FULLY awake for all my morning and afternoon
classes (in the old days during my 30% calories from fat diet, I LIVED
on caffeine to bring me through my afternoon classes), my ability to
think clearly improved, homework was finished quicker, test results got
better and I was feeling quite healthier.
Question? :) Ian Poulin 72700,1244
