We can make ANY diet EXPLODE with flavo, you and me, even cutting. Lets do this.

It's right at 2800 cals, Fat is 30%, Carbs at 39%, and Protein at 31%.

Honestly, I really don't have any diet goals. Right now, I'm just trying to eat healthy. I don't drink milk or eat eggs, or much sugar. I'm not a fan of mexican food. Other than that, I'll eat about anything. I do really like asian food. Sushi is new to me, but outstanding.

Ok, i digress, but since I always learn more from you all then i can ever give back to you... tell me: do you know what your macro breakdowns look like for this type of day? (www.fitday.com) whats your target breakdown? what are your current dietary goals? likes? dislikes?

Anwer what you have time for, all knowledge is good knowledge.

Sushi, or for me Sashimi, is the meal of choice... so many flavors and textures and presentations all without fucking with the food. Let it be as beautiful as it IS... I could, and have, survived on it long term....

Hmmm... since i will be in the U.S.... lets see... TOMORROW NIGHT! i think sushi is on the bill... or black angus...


both. and tequila. or not.








I realize this OT... and the circumtances are cloudy, but I am so glad to be coming home. Whoa.







Ok, sorry. back to our regularly scheduled thread.

Hey Ms.Blue,

I know this is a flavor thread, but if you dont mind my asking, do you train late evening?

Not too late. Usually go at 7:30 and am there until 9pm.

Courtney, I am NOT the right guy to critique your cutting plans, there are much more experienced fellows around here for that whose experience with this stuff would serve you better and get you to your goals a LOT faster... but may i ask a few questions?

Are you sure that IMMEDIATELY post surgery you want to do a calorie deficit/'cutter'? I have no idea what your sugery is, or what your natural recovery axis is like, but this a time when most peoples bodies are adjusting like MAD to the invasive trauma of surgery, and in general need all the nutrients they can get: not just for tissue repair, but to handle the general free-radical mambo that is going on in your body from the physio-emotional stress of surgery. A little more strict but calorie-forgiving diet time might benefit your faster recovery and in the long run get you in better prep for a more beneficial cutter. Just thinking out loud.

ps: how's the weather?

Right now I have been doing a bulking cycle which is pretty much similar to my cutting cycle except I have been eating more. And like double the carbs... I will play it by ear with my eating after surgery but I really dont want to gain any weight while I am recoverying so I am going to be really careful... I will keep you posted I go in tomorrow so I am starting to get a little worried...

the weather is BEAUTIFUL!!! I think it was in the high 80's low 90's yesterday this is my favorite time of year down here because it is really clear... It stays like this until the june gloom sets in around the middle of may... I hope you have a great flight!!

 

[Tom Treutlein]

Meal 1: 6 oz. top round steak, 1/4 cup brown rice, 1 tsp fish oil, 1 scoop whey
Meal 2: 1 oz almonds, 1/4 cup brown rice, 4.5 oz. top round steak
Meal 3: 80g Oatmeal (2 servings), 2 scoops whey, 1 tsp fish oil, 8-16 oz. 2% milk (blended into a shake)
Meal 4: 1 tbsp EV olive oil, 2 oz. top round, PB&J + Milk (whole grain/wheat bread, 2% milk, fruit preserves, ANPB)
Meal 5: 1 can of tuna (possibly mayo; maybe horserading or wasabi), 1 scoop Milk Protein Isolate/Calcium Caseinate combo, 1 oz. almonds

Leaves me pretty full. That's the bare minimum. I'll also go out to dinner with the girl or something, or stop over someone's house and get invited in for dinner. I end up with an extra meal or two on top of this every day, but I'll usually follow how I feel. If I'm not up to it, I cut it down a bit. I'd rather listen to my body than some diet plan layed out on a spreadsheet.

I use one packet of soy sauce per 1/4 cup (dry, so 1/2 cup cooked) of brown rice. That makes it tolerable, while keeping me within a healthy sodium range. ^_^

 

[Judo Tom]

Meal 1: Fruit and a protein shake
Meal 2: Egg whites on wheat bread
Meal 3: Turkey on wheat bread
Meal 4: Chicken and possible veggies depending on how i made the chicken
Meal 5: Steak or Roast Beef on wheat bread
Meal 6: More chicken (fajitas or with veggies or on a sandwich or salad)
Meal 7: Leftovers.. normally i have an extra piece of chicken from the day or Steak.

I also have 1 preworkout shake with some fruit or wheat bread

My job rocks and i can eat all day if i want at my desk so i rarely miss a meal. I always have food with me wherever I am in a cooler or something and I eat a lot when driving to/from work or to/from training.

I think you should have to make me one

adding salsa makes almost everything taste better

adding some chopped or minced garlic to brown rice, while it's cooking, gives it flavor so it's not as boring.
