Bastard Zone Diet

[eurorides]

fuck the bars man, i found the best way to diet is have some foods that fill you up. like veggies and egg whites youi wont be starving, and will save alot of $ w/o the bars. if you want bars go to a candy store kuz thats all they are. snickers with a little more protien.

Naa, the Zone Bars are actually fairly good IMO although I do think they have a tad to much sugar. I use them as a literal meal replacement and 6 for 4.96 isn't bad on the pocket book at all. I'm a big fan of the current bar fad. What can I say .

Thanks for all of the help guys. I'm going to start a food log here shortly.

Also, what are you drinking during a typical day?

Only water?
Juices?
Soda? etc...

Water mainly, although I do indulge in a diet pepsi here and there . If I feel froggy I'll make some Crystal Light about once a month.

just forget those bars and you will see results.

I still don't see how eating something like that is like eating a candy bar. Don't get me wrong, I love egg whites more than anyone (I've always got an 18 pack boiled and ready to go) but sometimes I need something I can just toss in the car to have on standby in case I'm not at home (which is a lot).

I mean, come on, lets be realistic. Which is better, a Snickers or this:

Zone Bar
Total Fat: 7g
Saturated Fat: 3g
Cholesterol: 5mg
Sodium: 360mg
Potassium: 100mg
Total Carbohydrate: 20g
Dietary Fiber: 0g
Sugar: 13g
Protein: 16g

Vitamin A 50%
Vitamin C 210%
Calcium 2%
Iron 8%
Vitamin E 210%
Thiamin 50%
Riboflavin 50%
Niacin 100%
Vitamin B6 200%

Folate 45%
Vitamin B12 45%
Biotin 30%
Pantothenic Acid 35%
Phosphorus 8%
Magnesium 10%
Zinc 50%
Selenium 80%
Chromium 80%
Molydbenum 70%

Granted, theres a LOT of sodium in one of these things. But it can't be that bad when your on the go? No flames, I'm just trying to learn.

How many raw veggies are you eating, and how much water are you drinking? I'm familiar with the Zone diet, it is better than most. 2000 calories is a bit low unless you are like 150 ibs.

gettin back to your question on why you think you may have gained weight .. were you bulking before switching to this diet? cus i know a lot of people who were on a bulking diet, and immediately went into a caloric defict, and what basically happened was they stored some more fat. makes sense, you're giving your body all this food, then suddenly when you cut it off, its going to store as much fat as possible, to "stay alive".
