Hi Kaylinart,
Thank you for your post. I recently got a food plan from a personal trainer. What do you think? My goal is to lose fat and gain muscle. I train 4-5 times a week.
- 500g low-fat yogurt with a scoop of muesli.
- shake with a piece of fruit.
- 1 slice of bread with low-fat meat (chicken or turkey).
- 100g rice/potatoes with 300g vegetables and 100g meat/fish.
- Another shake.
Also using some vitamins and fish oil.
Thanks.
Mark
Yogurt is dairy and since most cows now are the bastardized ones that only produce omega 6 and aren't even grass fed, you are eating a less healthy food. Muesli is grains mixed often with brown sugar, dried fruits, all of which are not really that healthy. Plain rolled oats are one of the healthiest grains, but all grains are basically not good or should only be consumed in moderation. Fruit should be consumed fresh. Sugar should never be eaten.
That sounds really good! I'm not a professional. But I do think that would be a good balanced diet
Thanks for your reply. Just one more question if you have the time. Do you ever eat pizza? I miss pizza so much.
Yes! I eat pizza sometimes. But I am far from having a perfect body still. I'm on the chubby side still.
I feel like everyone needs a cheat day sometimes.
In high school, I was the cook in a pizza restaurant at night. I would eat a 24" thick crust, New York style, triple cheese, deluxe toppings pizza every night by myself. But I was running 10 miles a day (Cross Country team).
So instead of depriving yourself, perhaps you could just exercise more and then you can eat what you like. I think butter might be healthier than cheese as it is less processed. I am very sensitive to cheese now, but I seem to tolerate the (New Zealand) butter.
