Thread: Diet recommendations for my situation?

do have an actual diet you follow each day?

any idea on cals consumed? macros?

I don't follow a diet plan and haven't counted Calories. Macros?

I keep thinking of trying a Green Smoothie type diet.. drinking those all day and having a light supper at night? My green smoothies usually consist of mostly spinach, Kale, Swiss Shard and Collard greens, bananas, coconut milk, strawberries, Agave Nectar and steva -- and water. I haven't tried it yet tho.

I'm really lacking in the energy department..could really use some suggestions.

I should try making some smoothies with veggies sometime.

hmmmm

boy...

a green smoothie...

do the green and throw in a scoop of protein and youd probably have a decent meal...

decent but disgusting im sure

i think ill stick to protein and oats though

old fashion oats have been shown to lower LDL cholesterol

provide energy for a long period of time. and are very easily measured...
making counting calories MUCH less tasking




---- a scoop (found in a bucket of protein) is 1/4 cup----
at least most i have encountered thus far are 1/4 cup... that includes ON, Intigrated, Muscle Milk, Numerous house brands, GNC pro performance

syntha 6 is more like 1/3 cup... but most all others are the same scoop as far as i tell


anyhow

2 scoops of oats is 140 cals and
19g carbs
5g pro
3g fat

2 scoops of whey 240cal
6g carbs
48g pro
1 g fat

2 fish oil caps 25cal
1g pro
2.5g fat

405 cals
25g carb
55g pro
6.5 g fat

anytime i need a replacement meal i throw this one in there

the macros fit MY diet

dont blend the fish oil in

add coffee
subtract fishoil

PRE workout

I thought so at first too.. but if you like a banana milk shake you'd like this.. it tastes the same, you just have to get over the color.

banana and a big handfull of spinach...ice, water, whatever berries you like. I do blue and straw berries.

Good stuff, surprisingly, and the spinach doesnt really have alot of taste when blended.

I used to do these all the time and i think I'll have one tonight! my texture is more like blended applesauce. Thats what I had to get used to is the texture. But I usually make mine thick to get in more spinach. I would say that I tried apples in mine one time and I do not like the taste in the mix, though I love apples.

If you water it down enough.. to like a watery milk shake and blend it for 3 minutes flat.. you'll get no chunks or textures. I actually prefer this now over anything else. The Agave nectar and steva really sweeten it up, I dont even taste a hint of greens

Before I was not able to control myself and I used to forget that I am on diet. But it effects on my dieting then one of friend told me about mark Patrick’s programs . Programs is really awesome and its gives a way to live healthier life. Their weight loss programs are designed to help eliminate the behaviors that are making us overweight. Really it worked for me and I have reduced my weight. I think you also have to try it and I hope you will also find some great results in yourself.
