i want to know what is your most used protein(whole food)?
What is your most used Carbohydrate?
what is your primary fat sources?

what is your favourite protein source?
what is your favourite carb source?
do you use additional fats in your diet?


also i want to know how many of you memebers weight your food? how many of you count your calores that you are taking in? do you know how many calories you actally need? how often do you have a cheat meal/cheat day?

Does this entitle us to one free diet coupon?:laugh:

Chicken
Brown Rice/Sweet potato
Salmon/Fish/evePrimrose/Olive/Flax - oil

Kudu biltong
Chocolate/sweets/cppkies - all the stuff the kids have in the pantry!

Whole wheat bread without a dash of marge? Margarine.

Know the weight +-, no scales. Know +- what i need and try to stick to that.

The cheats i'm struggling with. Those goodies in the pantry have to go!


Almost forgot = Alchohol! Beer during rugby, Red wine when chatting to my old man, malt Whisky for sundowners, Tequila when jolling...

Sadly, i'm on cycle - so 3 weeks off the sauce already.

haha jack u got a free diet coupon any day of the week champ.

cool. i am glad to see that u are quite clean and healthy...apart from the kiddies cheats

Chicken
Brown rice/oats
Peanutbutter/fish oil/almonds/olive oil etc

Favourite source of protein, a good steak every once in a while is a nice change from the masses of chicken.

I weigh my food, but not veggies or fruit thats a bit extreme but protein, carbs and fats I weigh. If I don't I seem to judge to little and then I don't get the calories I need. I try have one cheat meal but it usually is 2 a week. Although this easter weekend my diet went out the window hahaha.

Chicken
Oats
Peanut butter/Almonds/Primrose

My favourite proteins are Chicken,Beef Fillet and eggs. Could not just choose 1.

I dont weigh my food, i tend to trust the label!

My cheat days are Sat and Sun( but by Sunday lunch i feel so guilty), I buy my kids sweets and then i eat them.
The easter eggs were calling big time this weekend!

I don't really weigh my food and don't count calories as I'm not competing at this stage. I had some chocolates (Easter bunnies and eggs) this weekend, but from today I will be clean again...

BTW: As dj told me, only eat the Easter egg whites...

im on keto diet /during the week a do a carb upload starting firday night and ending on saturday around twelve.

During the week i intake around 30 - 50grams of carbs per day 190g of natural fats and 159g of protien.

On the carb load about 720g carbs same amount of protien during the week lower the fats to about 72 grams.This will allow for the body to lose muscle according to an artilce i found on bodybuilding .com check it out.



Fats olive and flax seed oil.
Protien chicken/fish/eggs/fat free milk - card and protien.
Carbs bown rice/low gi bread

TO NOT LOSE MUSCLE.

see even cheating can be healthy

endomorph u are gonna need to mail me cos um....if u think u are not gonna loose muscle on 160g of protein u are a bit out there bud.i would suggest u up that...

I eat four-five differing protein sources daily giving me the widest possible amino acid gene pool in my body.

They are , egg whites, tuna or pilchards,chicken breast, whey protein,red meat and sometimes cottage cheese.

Eating a lot of brown rice and whole wheat pasta.

Eliminate all visible fats but supplement daily with 3g efa, also get fats from pilchards.

Generally diet is solid mon to friday, wheels start reattling alittle on sat but sun they come right off and i eat whatever is going and generally just make sure that i eat about 300g of protein seven days a week!oh yes been on this diet for say ten tears bodyfat rarely climbs over ten percent but maybe it has this weekend as banged a whole box of those marshmallow eggs, lol!

Favoutirte cheat at this point is KFC crispy strips they the bomb and you still get your protein its a winner!:laugh:

Shit bud i gotta hit the cardio in the morning,i didnt realize marshmelloweggs have no protein in them lol..

Ja just checked now we will hhave to cross that one off the list only 3,46g /100, its abit kuk hey ogre!

Lol i was a good 100grams of protein though....

Night ogre, gonna chow my last eggs to aim for my required protein intake, i should be joining you for cardio in the morn but alas,

He he its easy for you you only drop 4-5 kgs lol,i drop 20 im a fat f^%$^%$k

Hey dj,

My email address is EMAIL ADDRESS REMOVED.

But 1g of protein per pound of body weight should be fine?
I’m 85kg 15 to 17 per cent body fat and 177cm in height. My BMI should be around 72kg if the calculator on bodybuilding.com is correct? Dj I would appreciate if could assist me is producing a keto diet that you think would work I prefer a keto diet cause its easier to manage for me especially when it comes to dieting at work.

I what to drop the fat to about 6% and keep as much muscle during the the keto period as possible.
Current cals per day consumed 2400.

up that protein to 1.5g-2g of protein per pound. i will mail u.

thanks.
