You might also want to increase the size of this meal a little - more cals to start the day... Is this rice cooked or uncooked? If it is raw then this is great! If not, you might want to increase the serving a little. Hmmm... Banana's are great, but I would probably have them around workouts or earlier in the day. Another small apple, some berries, some stone fruit or some citrus fruits may be better options here. You might want to add some EFA's and some vegetables here. Also consider adding another meal if you can... But I think it looks nice and clean!! Good luck! |
That would be pretty nasty otherwise, however, when I was a kid i used to eat raw pasta!

| Oh, I have added some protein drinks (Pure Pro) cause I hate eating that many times a day when I am at work, I amy not be able to get out of a counseling session in time to eat it all. Its easer just to gulp down a drink. |

fish oil is the best fat you can ever find and especially it helps with the fat burning process when you workout
, you've got an awsome body girl!! Way to go! I'll be peeking in on you too. |

And what about the tea and diet soda that I drink? I usually do 3-4 sets of 14 steps down the hall, and 14 steps back. I'd do 15 and 15 but i'm so anal about being "even" on both sides hahahaha!

As for fish oils (was reading some of the older posts), for me it depends on what I eat throughout the day, as Emma-Leigh said, because I also include some other oils in the food I cook, like sesame, or EVOO, or peanut butter, somewhere, plus the days I have salmon, that's 14g of fat in one 3 oz. serving, so it evens out... Walking lunges - It's by far one of my favorite glute/quad/ham exercises. I usually do 3-4 sets of 14 steps down the hall, and 14 steps back. I'd do 15 and 15 but i'm so anal about being "even" on both sides hahahaha! |

Good to see the fishies being added. They are the best source of fats you can eat and if you are not getting a lot of fatty fish in your diet these capsules are the next best thing.

As for cheese - well, there are better sources of fats (mono unsaturated and poly unsaturated fats like those in avocado, olive oil, seeds and nuts) but if you want it then a bit of cheese is not going to hurt if it is factored into your daily diet. Just remember than unsaturated fats will help your body to burn fuel more efficiently and to run more efficiently - so you want to make sure that the majority of your daily fats are from these and too many saturated fats will actually block the action of these 'healthy fats' to a certain degree so you are better off limiting them. And the bars... Well... If it were me I would save those for cheats only. If you want something easy to snack on then you could consider making your own bars insteat - they are far healthier and just as good. ps: Your diet is looking good! Keep it up! |

Now before the Arnold Classic I will hopefully get down to 9%bf. I plan on going off my diet again for two weeks right around Christmas. I am just tryin gto figure out what works the best for me! |

Im with you on the sugar alcohols. I had 4 sf lifesavers yesterday and was sick as hell. I prefer the 'real' stuff ) Trying to lose some fat, and put on a bit more muscle at the same time. 
Hey Jeanie
However, I will keep my weight under control until then.

I have decided that I am going to have 2 cheat days since I don't need to cut unitl it is closer to January (for the Arnold Classic). I am just mentally not ready to kill myself for nothing. However, I will keep my weight under control until then.
|
. I am back up to 130
It will be back down by Friday. I just am not feeling the pressure to kill myself right now to be ripped, hard and super lean. I mean, for what? But I will kick myself in the butt
12 weeks out form the competition deadline.
