Man, you don't ask for much do you?...lol..jk

I'm not that fussed about bodyfat if I'm trying to gain weight, just as long as I don't go too high. I think keeping a good lipid profile is obviously important though.

My problem comes down to planning. If I could structure my diet better and prepare meals in bulk, I believe I am half way there. I'm just never sure how I store food and what protocols to take to avoid the risk of food poisoning..etc.

I know what things to eat, but sometimes not entirely sure of the nutrional values when it comes to quantities..etc. such as how much chicken contains X amount of protein..etc. or how much oatmeal contains X amount of carbs (of course i have a rough idea on this, but could be better).

I've never been that scientific when it comes to diet, my main emphasis has always been on protein and to make sure I always get around 1.5 - 2g per lb of bodyweight and then just increase or decrease carb intake to suit my goals. This has worked pretty well so far, but I need to expand on this and plan ahead more.

I don't like to overcomplicate things when it comes to food, supplements or training, but in my case I believe I could do better with some help.

Definately. Im in the same boat. It always comes down to me slacking on diet. It just gets to be so much of a hassle. Next thing you know Im going the fast food route 2 times a day. So just having it easily prepped ahead of time in a nice simple way will help me tremondously.

Thanks for the pm

same--so easy to eat poorly....they taught calculus in high school---of which i have never and will never use--but the only thing they teach about nutrition is that stupid pyramid....which i guess was wrong all along anyway

 

[galaxy]

I think I had the 4 food groups when I was in school. I missed the whole pyramid thing.lol

Taking time for proper food prep and establishing solid habits have helped me more than anything else. I kind of have this ritual that I do not deviate from. Sunday I go to the grocery store and buy all my food for the week. Then I cook most of everything I will eat leading up until Wednesday. On Wednesday I cook for the rest of the week. The only two meals I don't really cook in advance are breakfast and post workout. I like to keep everything pre portioned therefore I know exactly what I am eating when I eat it. When you are ahead of the game it really makes a difference. Oh and I definitely want a copy of this book Needto

With this book you will be doing the same for breakfast to. Even some of the more advanced people don't know most of the tricks I cam up with. You can make breakfast months in advance and it will not spoil.

Thanks bro.
