Can you please post Macro's (Protein, Carbs, and Fats) for each meal as well as total cals.

Some of the meals I don't really like but will comment on when you respond.

I have no idea what the totals are, I just figure its a godo enough amount. based on other diets.

Ronald · 09-06-2006, 02:19 PM

also everything is cooked, i didn't measure anything dry. How much effect does salt have on me getting cut? will just one sandwhich from the deli per day really effect my results?

It's not a matter of it directly effecting your results, it's a matter of health. That stuff is so crappy and loaded with nitrate which in turn will effect your health. Compromised health = lack of results.

It isn't about copying other diets it is about educating yourself and figuring out what works for you. Everyone is different and has different metabolic needs.

But if it is good enough for you then so be it.

You will need to get a lot more meticilous in counting cals and macros if you want to get to that point. Then again, depends on how low is 'very low' in your opnion.

Ronald · 09-06-2006, 02:35 PM

Ok tonight when i get home from work I'll take time to figure out the calories, protein, and carbs of this diet. It's really tough for me to find time to cook or prepare all this food. I'm sure a lot of you all have a tough time trying to find the time it takes to prepare healthy food, what are some of the things you all do? I just bought a rice cooker and veggies steamer in one, which helped cut some time cause i can let it run without watching it....any other ideas?

**IainDaniel** · 09-06-2006, 02:37 PM

Rice Cooker and Veggie steamer is awesome, a staple to my kitchen.

Just cook a bunch of food at the beginning of the week for your meals.

Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it. Michael Jordan
