My god boy - just eat your damn food and stop getting so caught up in the detail!! You are going to send yourself crazy with this type of thing!!!

Anyway - my suggestion:

Breakfast 6:30

( 488cal 44p 61c 14f )
1 cup Oat/Oatbran Mixture (40g/40g)
3/4 cup egg whites
1 whole egg
2 cup mushrooms
3 fish oil capsules

Good.

Mid Morning (Pre Workout) 9:30 ( 396cal 42p 52c 7f )
3/4 cup Oat/Oatbran Mixture (30g/30g)
1/2 cup Skim Milk
1 cup 1% Cottage Cheese

I would take out the cc. You want something that digests faster than this if you are working out in 1 hours time.

Workout 10:30-11:30/11:45
PWO Shake 11:45 ( 359cal 31p 52c 4f )
1/2 cup Oats
100g Banana
1 Scoop ON Pro complex whey

Looks good.

PPWO 1:00pm ( 409cal 30p 52c 10f )
200g Sweet Potato
1 can Tuna
1 Tbsp Natural PB

How are you getting 52g carbs from this?? 200g cooked sweet tato is only 41g carbs??

Dinner 4:30 ( 426cal 44p 49c 7f )
5oz (raw) Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Brown Rice (45g raw)
2 cup Frozen Vegetables (Broccoli/Cauliflower/Carrots)
3 Flax oil capsules

Looks good. I would swap the flax to fish oils. You do not need to supplement omega-6 oils - all it does is throw the omega-3 to omega-6 ratio's even further.

Snack 7:30 ( 331cal 35p 27c 10f )
4oz (raw) Chicken Breast Or equivalent measure tuna or shrimp
3 cup salad (Lettuce/spinach/broccoli/mushrooms)
16g Sliced Almonds

Looks good - although I wouldn't bother counting your vege carbs (esp. someone in your situation - who is trying to 'gain mass' whilst still being overly restrictive on their diet!

).

Pre Bed 10:30 ( 358cal 42p 13c 16f)
1 1/4 cup 1% Cottage Cheese
26g Natural PB

Looks fine.

Totals
2766 Cals
270g Protein
306g Carbohydrates (55g Fiber)
68g Fat (16g Saturated... is this ok?)

I suggest you get more carbs than this - 250g probably will not cut it for you...

Protein is high enough, you certainly do not need more.

Fats are good - saturated fats are sitting at about 20% your fat intake - which is fine. But personally, I would not go much higher than this.

*Non workout days will have the following changes:
Mid Morning : add 1/2 cup milk and 20g Oats
No PWO Shake (obviously

)
PPWO : Replace 1 can Tuna with 5oz chicken, or use 1.5 can tuna and add 1 cup veggies

That would be fine.

lol, yeah i know... details details... what should i replace the cc with? Thats 200g raw, i have it listed at 48g carbs...http://www.nutridiary.com/quantity.a...%3D0%26opt%3D0

By your measurement i would need 236g sweetpotato... ??? which is right?

**thajeepster** · 03-23-2005, 09:47 PM

btw, with all the carbs i was taking in i guess i was getting alittle self conscious about all the water i was holding, getting a little puffy i guess, maybe im actually adding some fats... figured i'd cut back a little and see what happens. Take note, even though im in the marines, Ive got a desk job (it pays to be in a while, everyone else works for you

) anyways, im kinda sedentary outside of my occasional runs in the morning and my workouts.

else you will get a case of a serious disease known as 'analysis paralysis'

**ReelBigFish** · 03-24-2005, 12:31 PM

yeah man u def. wanna take it easy on being so precise, and not to sound rude, but anal bout every little detail. I used to be big my self and went to bulking after losing weight and its scary to think of getting fat again but you gotta just let go a lil bit. that could turn into an eating disorder.

**thajeepster** · 03-25-2005, 12:57 AM

ok made some changes around my workout...

Preworkout :
*took out cottage cheese, increased to 1 cup milk, increased oats/oatbran to a 40g/40g split, added in a half scoop whey

PWO Shake :
*added 10g oats

PPWO :
*increased to 220g sweetpotato and added 1 slice ezekial bread for my pb.

Dinner :
*now 130g chicken and 50g (dry) brown rice, I may sub in equivalent in pearled barley though...

Prebed :
*Decreased to 1 cup cottage cheese

So now im getting 347g carb (280g net) only 246g pro and 65g fats... still comes out to around 2800, but Ive definitely increased alot of my carbs around my workout. I was also thinking about adding in about a half cup of chopped apple to my preworkout meal. What do you think? Sorry guys, i dont have an eating disorder, im just a perfectionist.

Ain't nothing wrong with that

**ReelBigFish** · 03-25-2005, 10:38 AM

no man i wasn't trying to imply that you have an eating disorder, i just would hate to see someone else develop one. I used to have one and i know its not something you want.
