Looks good but you forgot something.....pssst.....carbs

 

[msunid83]

I wouldn't eat the Fiber One Honey clusters, I think only the original Fiber One is approved. I'm assuming you are following Twin Peak's method, but hey, whatever works.

Foreman, is the oats or sweet potato a subsitute for the fiber one or an addition? Thanks.

Agreed. Being a male you might want to watch you Iron intake if you are going to eat quite a bit of spinach.

With regards to the iron. It was just something to watch out for being a male. Females will need iron supplementation as they have a menstral cycle.

How do the macros workout? 5 meals means more carbs in the carb designated meals to refill glycogen stores.

Bread should be used sparingly

 

[thefutureisnow]

Yea I'm having one piece of bread. What should the macros be for a high carb meal.

 

[tucker01]

eat carbs till you are satisfied. NOT FULL.... Satisfied

 

[dontsurfonmytur]

just stack up bro, water crackers, nonfat yogurt, fruit, oats, waffles, pancakes, nonfat potato chips.

 

[tucker01]

Shut up unless you know what you are talking about. Dipshit

This was from Jodi's post on refeeds and leptin. I think he needs to add more of this stuff into it:
During your refeed, you should aim for around 1G of protein per Pound of body weight, keeping your sources of fat to a minimum, so you are only taking the fats that are in your proteins and carbs. Now, here is the fun part: CARBS! Yes, lots and lots and lots of carbs. Not necessarily brown rice, sweet potatoes and oats here either:

Bagels
Pasta
Rice
Bread
Cereal
FF/SF Ice Cream
Pancakes
Waffles
Crackers

Yes, all the things we crave If its low fat or fat free, have at it! Remember, no additional fats.

You should keep fructose to a minimum though. Sticking to 50-100G [for fructose, probably lower, like 25%] for the day is plenty. Remember sucrose is 50% glucose and 50% fructose so seeing that we need to watch our fructose, staying away from sucrose (table sugar) is probably best. Yes, in order to elevate our levels of leptin, we want to spill over muscle, not liver glycogen.

 

[thefutureisnow]

anyone else?

 

[tucker01]

This isn't a refeed type diet right.

I assumed you were doing carb cycling a la Twin Peaks article.

Yup.

 

[juggernaut]

yup? yup what?

[thefutureisnow]

yup? yup what?

The question was fairly straightforward. Yup meant that I am planning a carb cycling diet according to Twin Peak's articles.

 

[juggernaut]

good article. i read it before. is this being used for a lean bulk?

 

[thefutureisnow]

No I'm trying to cut fat. Right now I'm at 30%. I want to get somewhere between 10-15%. I currently weigh 220 lbs, so that means I want to get anwhere from 176-187 lbs. Dropping 33 lbs to 187 would be a vast improvement for me healthwise and it would just give me such a great confident boost. I'm trying to preserve as much muscle as possible to maintain my BMR.

Suggestions for a snack after last meal please. I???d like it to be between 100-150 calories.

Total Carbohydrates: 271.1 grams 1084.4 calories
Total Fat: 41.7 grams 375.3
Macro: 42/43/15(P/C/F)

This is way more food than I eat right now, which is probably my problem. I will eat more carbs in my carb meals if I'm not satisfied, which I highly doubt with all that food. What do you guys think of my totals and my macro percentage? This was supposed to be the hardest day to come up with so I hope I'm almost done with it.

Thanks,
J
