Please post your stats
do you train if so what when and how
age, weight, height, bf% if u can

sample of a days eating

in the mean time u can make small steps by:

eating 1.5g of protein per lbs of weight minimum
Drinking at least 4ltrs of water a day
eliminating sugars, refined and processed carbohydrates
getting good quality fats
upping green veggies

Yes i do train. I work my arms and chest and stomach 3-5 times a week depending how im feel... i usually workout for about 1 hour each time I goto the gym. Im am 21 years old, 150 weight pounds, 5 11" height.

MY normal day I usually have a bowl of captin Crunch in the morning... then threwough the day i eat chocalte chip oat meal bars. then for dinner i usually have a steak, or chicken with rice or patatos or garlic bread.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

You need to eliminate sugars, refined and processed carbohydrates (i.e. Capt Crunch). Look into Kashi or Fiber One cereal...Choco chip oatmeal bars, though YOU Think are healthy, aren't very good. Most likely (95% of the time), they contain HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP aka sugar), big no-no

Dinner wise, chicken breast is nice. In liew of garlic bread and a baked potatoe, have some yams or sweet potatoe and some veggies.

Your diet needs work. Right now, start eliminating unnecessary sugars...

ok so for breakfast and lunch what should i eat?

 

[sawastea]

oatmeal is a great addition to your diet arsenal. If it tastes too bland for you, add a scoop of your fav protein powder and mix

You have many choices for meals. Chicken breast, steak, tuna, fish, the list can go on and on. Add some fibrous veggies to the meal and voila

Where can i get a complete list of everything that is good to eat and what i shouldnt eat... like usually for lunch i goto tim hortins and get a BLT sandwhich... is the bacon and the bread bad?

they also have chicken salad sandwhich and turkey.. should i get it on white or wholeweat?

You need to clean up your diet a little, bro. That doesn't look anything like a good bodybuilding diet. You have to cut out all refined sugars and stick with natural foods for your carb sources ie sweet potatoes, oats and some brown rice. Also you need to increase your protein intake by eating high protein foods like eggwhites, chicken breasts, lean cuts of steak, whey protein, cottage cheese and fish. All of these should be grilled ofcourse. Try to eat more vegetables and salads too!

I have a problem that i get really hungry during the days what should i eat thats healthy for a snack to keep me full until dinner?

I also smoke weed so that burns away alot of my food so i am really skinny just i have fat ontop.

captain crunch tastes good ~ though I haven't had it in years... I should try it again sometime..

simplexx: weed might be increasing your appetite.. plus it just makes me feel tired and shitty, I don't see how people could like it... ANYWAY as for snacks... really depends on what type of diet you want to go on? what kinda stuff would you like to see on a diet? high carb? timed carbs? low carb? mmm... but a lot of vegetables are good for most diets anyway.. you could snack on celery/broccoli/green beans/cucumbers etc...

my Training Partner will get a box of cereal (any type he feels like) and sit at his computer with it, a bowl, a spoon and a carton of soy milk and just eat the whole box.. lol and........... he's usually between 6-7% bf year round. crazy genetics.. hehe
