I have the Whey protein, and I make my daily protein shakes, and I try to stick to smaller meals, realistically I go about 5-8 throughout the day. I try to eat more chicken, steak veggies etc. I was just wonderin what are some examples of everyone elses daily meal plans. (Healthy ones only please) Thanks. |
I've started my own meal plan that has been working for me over the past few weeks. I started my diet and weight training 4 weeks ago and i'm finally starting to notice some changes.
Here's a basic overview of my meal plan and one should note that I didnt research any particular plan, i just took advice from my peers who are in good shape:
6AM: Lift and run
7:30 AM: 2 egg whites and a bowl of fruit (usually strawberries and grapes)
9:50 AM (when my first class is over): Munch on a protein bar
11:00 AM: Apple and then go to morning bjj class
2:00 PM: Tuna Sandwich on wheat or a bowl of beef&bean chili (Props to clint)
6:00 PM: 1 Boneless skinless chicken breast or 2 small fish filets (frozen kind you can get at wal-mart, sams, etc), some kind of greens-sometimes a bowl of english peas or 2-3 celery sticks, spinach, whatever you prefer really and a few pieces of fruit (usually strawberries and grapes)
after 6 i may eat half a protein bar but nothing more than that. i try not to eat after 6 and that's hard because i LOVE to eat...especially late night munchies
but yea im not on any strict diet or anything. I've been taking bjj for a while but that just wasnt enough...i'm dieting and exercising more for appearance, not for competition or anything like that. But yea it's been 4 weeks since i've started and i've lost some weight, starting to lose a little bit of the belly finally. Honestly man, if you're not going by a strict diet from a nutritionist or a diet out of a health magazine of some kind, it's just trial and error.
try a diet for a month or 2 and if it feels like it's working, keep at it. men's health magazine has some AWESOME recipes for meals that are extremely tasty. you could try that
edit: i should also mention that i allow myself to cheat once a week my battering up my fish or chicken and frying it to a golden brown crisp...mmmmmmm mmmmm so damn good!
