Hey guys
Info on me.. Ht: 6'0, Wt: 210-215, Training for: 3 yrs
Just had a few questions about this diet I've been on for a couple of weeks.. I found it online, it seems pretty basic:
Meal 1 (7 AM)
1 cup of dry oats mixed with water
1 cup of egg beaters
Meal 2 (9 AM)
Meal replacement packet like Prolab's Lean Mass Complex (which has a 40/40/20 nutrient ratio) mixed with water or a protein powder (with around 40 grams of protein) mixed with 40 grams of carbs from cream of rice, grits, or oatmeal.
1 Tablespoon of Flaxseed Oil (Spectrum brand is best)
Meal 3 (12 Noon)
1 cup of brown rice, or medium sized baked potato, or 1 cup of oatmeal
2 cups of green beans, broccoli or any other desired vegetable
6-8 ounces of chicken, turkey, or lean fish
Meal 4 (3 PM)
Same as Meal 2
Meal 5 (6 PM)
1 cup of brown rice, or medium sized baked potato, or 1 cup of oatmeal
2 cups of green beans, broccoli or any other desired vegetable
6-8 ounces of chicken, turkey, or lean fish
Meal 6 (8 PM)
Same as Meal 2
Instead of using the Meal Replacement for Meal 2, I just add 3/4 cup of Quick Rolled Oats (about 40 g Carbs?), with 40 g of Whey Protein Isolate, and a TBSP of Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
And on training days, I have a shake with 40 g of Whey Protein Isolate and about 2 1/2 scoops of Dextrose (about 200 grams I'm guessing?..which is 80g of carbs).
3 Questions:.. a) Would my replacement for Meal 2 be best or should I include a cream of rice instead or would that make any difference?
b) How is my post-workout shake? and c) Am I taking in too many carbs thoughout the day? I feel like I'm not getting as lean as I want..so where could I cut out some carbs?
