why are you supposed to avoid breads, fruits, and dairy when cutting?

[110%]

what is wrong with these foods i thought fruit and wheat breads are good?

 

[diamonddiceclay]

they cause too much of an insulin spike

They're only bad if you're on a keto/atkins diet. But even if you're not, you can't eat a lot of them. A little fruit is ok, but it has a lot of simple carbs/sugars in it which are not good for cutting. Wheat bread is ok, but you don't want to take in a whole lot of it. Only thing wrong with most dairy is the high animal fat content. That too is something you need to watch while dieting.

So I ask the question again, what's wrong with skim milk? It has 0.1% fat.... that's not much. And the carb content can't be that much....

Nothing wrong with skim milk. The fat and carbs aren't enough to even worry about, IMO.

According to your subject line, I shouldn't be able to loose weight at all. I eat 2 slices of bread, brand is "White-Wheat". I also eat 2 servings cottage cheese, 1 cup of yogurt, and 16oz of skim milk each day. That's the only dairy I eat.

Yes, you do get the protein, but you also are gonna get a buttload of staturated fat as well. Check the label and check out how much saturated fat you're getting per serving taking in three cups of cc.

 

[D00fy]

u mean 1cup and half

i have about 3 1/2 cup servings a day

and its like 1.5 or 2.5 not much

I do not think that you need to avoid great protein sources like fat free and low fat dairy products, whole wheat and whole grain pastas and breads, and I do not think that fruit is bad as long as it is in moderation asdn early in the morning. This would work well for a normal cutting diet. Now if you are contest dieting I found that dairy and soy keep me from attaining that Hard look. I also eat more solid protein sources starting at six weeks out to help with thinning of the skin and muscle hardness. basicly you avoid pasta, bread, asdn dairy because it causes water retention and keeps your skin from becoming ultra thin. Trust me dieting like that is not worth doing unless you are getting ready for a show, becuase three days after you start consuming dairy again you will hold water under the skin...(This is for most people, I have a roommate who has tight thin skin and eats tons of dairy up to a week from the show, all has to do with gentics)

feel free to email me if needed...
