There you go Angie, have a go at that. :D

It doesn't matter that you posted in here, Morgan! Females should eat pretty much in the same way that men do. Probably not the same quantities, but same principles.

7:30am 2-3 eggs + tomatoes + 1 glass milk
10:30am tuna sandwich
1:30pm leftovers from night before eg. spagbol, salad, fruit
4:30pm cottage cheese and yoghurt and fruit
7:30pm dinner - chicken/beef/fish + steamed veges
10:30pm cottage cheese

Post-workout I would consume a protein shake.
 
pretty much what i eat each day during week.
meal 1: 4 eggs
meal 2 : 185gm tuna + salad
meal 3 : 200gm chicken/meat/fish + broccoli and cauliflower and carrots
meal 4 : 200gm chicken/meat/fish + broccoli and cauliflower and carrots and whatever else
meal 5 : 200gm cottage cheese.

i havent done the cottage cheese for a few weeks though as im over it harder and harder to stomach. thats pretty much what i work around it obviously changes a bit to what im doing and where i am but thats what i work on doing and sticking to. ill also have a protein shake post workout. but havent had any protein powder for weeks now so ive just been eating a bit more.

Hi MM, here is what i would suggest...

HEIGHT 157CM WEIGHT 49.9KILOS

8am cup of oats with water - add some protien here, eggs, Ppowder or at least use milk.
10am 4 vita wheat bisc's with tomato and celery, cup of green tea - add some protien here, tuna, cheese, chicken etc
11am a piece of fruit - drop this
12.30 lunch- a huge sandwich with 100g chicken or tuna, heaps of salad and
cheese (drop this ). a low fat yogurt (move this), a cup of tea.

3.00 low fat yogurt add fruit if you wish

5.30 dinner- 2 large eggs as an omelet with spinach and cheese, 3 cups of
vegies, and a small salad.
Or a 100g piece of chicken, red meat or fish, steamed veggies,
sweet potato etc. nice

7.30 a piece of fruit of some sort and a decaf coffee NO Drop this.

8.30 a pre workout protein shake, heaps of water ?? do you workout here?

some nuts, and then water before bed.

ALL up I drink 3 - 4 ltrs of water a day

Brendon - Obviously there are some carbs involved, but I eat low gi, so a majority of everything is low fat, and the bread is soy linseed or some grainy bread. I have currently lost 31 kilos so I am in maintenance. I am now working out to strengthen and tone.

thanks MD for your suggestions. I will alter my diet. I do a workout at 8.30 pm.

No probs, I would suggest moving the Pre-workout shake to a Post workout shake and have the peice of fruit here also..

5.30 dinner

8.30 workout

9.30 shake/fruit

then some nuts, or LF yougurt or cottage cheese before bed



MD
 
thanks sounds good. Do I have a protein shake during the day as well? What do you recommend?:confused:

You would only add a protien shake in if you are not getting any other protien source at that time (meal)

Basically without getting too caught up in calories, just try aim for 30%40%30% split at each meal 30%protien 30% fats and 40% carbs, each will compliment the other and will give you a balanced plan, once you establish something consistent then it is so much easier to make the little changes matter, if you are always changing or altering caloric intake you will never know what is working for you.

Sorry, back to the shake... looking at your above plan i would say no. protien is only used for repairing muscle and providing your body with the amino acids it needs, get too much and it will be turned into sugar just like carbos. That said if you have a really active day and do alot of strengtgh training, throw in another shake before bed, to aid in recovery.

Carbs = fuel
fats = lubricant
protien = touch up & smash repair

Consulting a health professional to make sure you don't have an inflammation, yeast infection or celiac would be a wise move in my opinion Brendon. By doing so, you can rule out any underlying cause which is not allowing you to have carbohydrates.

Now if you’re doing this on purpose
on weekends though i carb it up.
because some expert has recommended such a way of eating, (like Dr. Mauro Di Pasquale in his anabolic diet etc), then that’s a different story altogether.


All the best.

PS: Brendon, please disregard the above. I was going to delete it since I saw your answer in your training thread. Thanks for the info and I hope you get better soon my friend, (with that cold).


Fadi.
