Try "The New Basics" Cookbook-
It changed my wife and my cooking life- It explains how to cook perfect Meats, Fish, Vegetables, Desserts, Side Dishes, Soups, etc... all in very tasty and surprisingly simple spice combinations. You may find that you can actually cook very well!...
dg- white pepper is a beautiful thing- try putting a little bit in mashed potatoes, with bleu cheese and horse radish!!!! (When you are bulking of course)

Is it low fat cooking? My BF always says our food is bland- but since we both eat healthy, I find its alot harder to add zest tto the meals . We ussually end up eatting chicken day ion and out. BORING!
leslie-
It isn't low fat cooking per se, but much of it is lower than normal and tasty.
For example, The meats sections use a lot of dry spices like basil, mustard powder, and various peppers for flavor, and introduce simple broiling and baking techniques that are low maintenance. one of their basic ideas is that your preparation is key and once you've put the meat in the heat- baking, broiling, or grilling- try to touch it or turn it as little as possible. So it's also very low maintenance.
Here is a chicken example:
Baked Chicken:
Start with Split Breasts parts- These are usually uniformly sized so no weights are given
3 or 4 Split breasts with Bones in
2-3 TBS of chopped fresh rosemary , depending on your taste preference
Poultry Seasoning
Fresh Lemon Wedges
Salt & Pepper to taste
Peel back chicken skin and season the meat with a dash of poultry seasoning, and the chopped rosemary (this will be strong because it is fresh so use it sparingly under the skin). Fold Skin back over the breast & seasoning, adding salt & pepper to the outer skin. Place the breasts, evenly spaced into an uncovered baking dish. Squeeze fresh lemon wedges onto the skin, and drop the wedges into the baking dish with the breasts. Drop any remaing rosemary into the baking dish as well. These will infuse the chicken with their aromas as they bake in the oven along with the chicken.
Place the chicken in a preheated oven at 425 for the first 15 minutes to sear the outside and seal the juices in. After 15 minutes drop the temp to 375 and finish for 45 minutes. Pull this out, let it cool a bit and enjoy!!!!!
The soups teach the basics of a good beef, vegetable, or chicken stock, and after you make those, the good stuff you put in is really up to you, but they give some great blueprints. Same goes for stews- really good in winter!
Or here is a really simple one if you don't really cook very often-from amazon.com- it has great reviews!

Legs/Traps Last night: It's funny, seeing Fade's #'s for legs really bums me out since I've got toothpicks right now and my numbers are low....
But I've rationalized it already by telling myself that small thighs really leave my balls more space......
Leg Press
12X120 Warm-up/ Stretch
5x120 Single Leg, Each Side
12X210
10X300
8X390
12X120 Slowly & Strictly, to Finish
Calves Super Sets-
3 full cycles of this with no break between sitting/standing; 1 minute between each cycle
Seated Calf Raises
12X90
Standing Single-leg Calf Raises; Alternating Legs
12X60
Seated Hamstring Curls

12x50
10x60
8x70
6x80
12x40 Finish
Lunges:

Traps
Dumbbell Shrugs
12x30 Warmup/Stretch
12x35
10x45

I felt very strong here??!!?? I have never really tried this much weight on my traps but my form stayed really good and I did a quality set there. i have broken blood vessel lines in my traps this morning though, but no real out-of-the-ordinary soreness.....
I actually had to drink a 400 calorie carb-load during the workout because i was gassing 3/4 of the way through my legs. Other than that I feel good today- soreness in all the right places letting me know I didn't cheat proper form.........
Looking forward to posting new pics in a few weeks!

LOL on your thighs!!!! Too funny
!!!! Yes, it's all about proportion!!! The art of illusion!! Sounds like you are getting stronger and had an awesome workout! What kinda drink were you taking during your w/o?
I drank a regular ISOPURE during- pure carbs- 400 Calories and it seemed to kick in in about 5 minutes, although that could have been mental.
Afterward, i almost always drink the 20 oz. ISOPURE SPORT, which is 15g liquid protien and 5mg glutamine, and basically no sugar.
They both taste and smell like poop though?? What's up with that?

Rant- People with Bad Form...
Last night there was poor guy in my gym who was doing exercises with the worst form!!!
He was using 65lb. dumbbells for front raises. He was actually using his legs to get the dumbbells moving upward on his front raises, then using them to cushion the blow when they came crashing back down??!! I was afraid he'd be taken out in a stretcher after a crushing blow to the pelvic area.
He then moved on to the lat pull down, where he proceeded to load up the stack and do these stand-up, sit-down pulldowns, with his bodyweight acting as the lever to get the weight moving. he had adjusted the leg bar so that he could get his butt a good 6" off the seat.
Today I'm guessing he's exhausted because he worked virtually his whole body at every point in his routine.
I wish there was a form fairy that would come visit these people and show them how to do exercises that target specific muscles- not throw weight around incorrectly.

I tried to do a 25 minute cardio last night but there was no way it was happening the day after legs. i got on my treadmill for about 4 minutes and quit because my legs were sooooo sore.
Anyway, the weight is hovering at about 160 right now and my waist is going down! My 32" pants, which are washed & shrunk. are getting loose. All together, I've bought about 8 new pars of pants since March, and it looks like I may be in for another round of buying and tailoring. Oh well...
Additionally, for the ego factor, i was totally checked out by a woman at GNC yesterday! I can't recall being outwardly scoped in quite a while. And she was a cutie... Anyway, I told my wife and she though perhaps I had done enough reshaping of my self if that were the case
Meals yesterday
Breakfast: 280 cals
Banana and Nut Granola
Coffee and Cream
Banana
1 Liter H20
Snack:160 cals
Vanilla Creme Snackwells- didn't eat the whole pack though
Lunch:300 cals
Japanese Udon Soup- Chicken & Shrimp with Veggies in a chicken broth. i only ate 1/2 of the noodles.
1 Liter H20
Mid Afternoon Snack: 190 cals
Strawberry & Cream Mypolex Lo Carb Drink
Dinner: about 450 cals
Garlic Chicken Breasts & Veggie Rice - Broccoli, Red peppers, fresh peas, onions. I also steamed about 3 cups of fresh broccoli on the side to fill me up.
Drank about 1 liter more throughout the evening.
No Evening snack b/c I didn't work out

Good mOrnin! Congrats on being eye candy for that young lady!
It was like a bit of the icing on the cake.....
Hi everyone, hope all is well in Iron-land! Updating my journal, as I have been a lazy sod since last week- only on the updating part, though.
I have been writing some new standup material and was called by a few old friends to possibly start performing again in NYC at a couple of clubs so we'll see how things go over the next few weeks..... i figured that I'd put it out there since you'd all hold me to it if I wrote it.......
Thursday-
Worked out Back & Triceps, a bit lighter than usual since I didn't want to be sore for a golf tournament the next day....
Friday-
Took off and played in a local golf tounament , with my uncle and two friends. We actually won the overall match with the two best low net scores!!! We got about $600 worth of clubs, shirts, balls, and hats.
Saturday-
My wife took advantage of an extremely long nap by my son to go get a manicure/pedicure at a local salon.
I worked out.
Chest
Flat Bench- 12X75, 12x95,10x115,8x125
Incline DB Flyes 12x35, 12x40, 10x45, 8x45
Flat Bench Flyes, light to finish for form & concentration
Biceps
Straight Bar Curls, 3 sets light to moderately heavy pyramid
Dumbbell Curls, 3 sets heavy to exhaust
Preachers to Finish, light for form on tired bi's
Sunday
Shoulders
Military Press
Standing Barbell Row
Military Press Dumbbells
Took my Wife, son, and three friends to the Big Apple Circus on Sunday Afternoon. My son loved the music, clowns, and a guy dressed up like a hot dog during intermission. Then we went to an arcade/family dinner place where i took him on the waverunner video games, he thought that was fantastic!
He got up this morning asking to ride it again......

I do political humor, philosophical humor- like the kind in my current signature-, generally make fun of the things that people do do make themselves feel better. One of my favorite things to do is take the old sayings that boil life down into trivial expressions and really mix them up.......
people seem to really respond to that stuff well and you don't have to be really dirty to do it. i have written for some friends who are actively performing right now but they use the stuff as their own and I can't disclose names or jokes.....
Deep down I would love to write for Conan O'Brien or Jay Leno because their opening monologues have to be funny every night and the material is always changing. one of the ways I practive is by buying a few newspapers every day and trying to come up with 5 solid minutes of material from them. it's hard, but it really keeps me on my toes- when getting heckled i have actually used current news and stories in a very funny way to diffuse the hecklers. Someone always has enough liquor to think they're funnier than the comic in NYC, even for the best comics.
At times in NYC, you can get really raunchy and people seem to love it, so I've been much looser when performing there. Plus you can bring a drink onstage, so i do a bit on alcoholism that is funny, but discomforting to anyone that's lived through a parent like that- I have, so I feel like its my right to exorcise that demon in a funny way.
I have a bunch of material that i would love to share but on the internet it could wind up all over the place, unattributed to me, and useless onstage if tons of people have already heard it. So I'm naturally a bit more guarded about it.
I get silly here but usually in the context of whatever thread I'm in at the time.

I felt awesome: two reasons: 1) foot seemed back to normal & 2) I could have done more cardio!!?? I always thought I hated cardio but Monday night was awesome! I have never felt such a rush before. At around the 13-14 minute mark of the intervals, my body just went ice cold! I got this rush of strength, the burning in my calves subsided, and I was just rolling. I would have only done 5MPH at the tops b/c this was my first solid run since busting up my foot in May, but added alternating 6MPH's for emphasis.
Food was in line with my baseline plan from my "Wanna Feel Like I'm 20 Again" journal, so a good mix and right about 2000 calories.
My clothes are getting more loose. I bought 4 pairs of tailored pants for work 10 days ago, picked them up yesterday, and they are already loose! I will have to return to the tailor and have the waists redone if I keep dropping!
I will be switching to a upper lower split, A-B type workout with more cardio to trim some more fat for my July 13th pix. I hope that 1 month looks like some really positive changes!!!
Tuesday was a rest day with good eating calories wise. Too much protein and not enough veggies, based upon my lists, but I am really trying to go for good 3 day cycles where everything balances out..
Legs Tonight:
Adding in Smith Machine Squats and Walking Dumbbell Lunges for a variance, plus it will hit the stabilizers well and improve my balance........

Reviewed my goals from the other journal- priorities were(highest to Lowest):
Fat Loss
Muscle Tone
Endurance
Flexibility
So with an eye on that I am increasing the cardio and switcing back to an upper/lower split with at least two days of rest per week and cardio that never follows a leg day. After I get down to the size I want to be at, I will begin a disciplined bulking process.
Legs last night
Smith Squats- with a trainer watching my form- this was tougher than the weights show b/c I usually let my knees go over my toes and my back got funky. Once we got the form & motion right, we were off.

12x135
10x155
10x175
8x135
