My lean muscle diet of late

Guest

Seems to have worked well for me.. for both shedding some un-needed bad fat and gaining good fat as well.. which actually promotes weight loss.

1- lots of avacodo's (high in healthy fats, antioxidants)
2. multi-grain unsprouted breads
3. lots of berries, especially blue-berries
4. occasional fish, sometimes lean steak, but cutting down on meat in general.. using it more as a secondary option
5. Lots of soymilk

What diets have worked well for you?

Eat as many calories as I can. Well, almost. I do eat alot of high fiber breads and oatmeal for breakfast and for snack we have the Kashi cookies that have fiber and cane sugar. A lot of chicken as far as meat goes. I don't like a lot of fruit so I eat a lot of bananas, apples, and grapes when I can afford them. I'm about 3,000 calories a day right now.

I am always a high protein guy, but I also have a lot of muscle mass to maintain.

I don't eat fried foods, don't drink any sugared drinks (soda, energy drinks with sugar, sweet tea, etc.), don't drink alcohol at all, and rarely eat any desserts like cookies or cakes or anything. I will admit a weakness for Oreos and apple pie from time to time, however.

I don't understand the need to be "big" .. but that's just me. Especially when it's more work to sustain without getting fat.

Hey Arttie, you ever try deep fried oreos? My wife makes them sometimes. She calls it "fair food" along with deep fried snickers bars, deep fried twinkies and, our next item, deep fried cookie dough!

Mine's not really a diet...I try to get a soymilk protein drink after I workout (soy's not bad so long as you smother it with stuff Very Happy

) and try to buy something relatively healthy to eat (pita chips or an odwalla food bar). It's tough though...I've got a crazy sweet tooth.

Fried foods aren't as prevalent in the diet anymore...still there, but not in such amounts as they used to be.

Not allowed to have any starches or sugars but it's not helping. :-/ And today's Thanksgiving and I'll just bet I go all day like that.

For five T-Days in a row though before I knew I was diabetic, I would get projectile vomit. Now I know that all the starch shot my sugar up so high that I got violently ill.

I made a two natural juice apple pies though. I juiced the apples for the juice in the recipe so there is literally no sugar added except what's in the apples. So we'll see how that goes over with everyone. Everybody's diabetic except my son and hubby, my dad and my uncle and his g/f.

I made full sugar pumpkin ones for them though.

Junk food, no exercise and irregular sleep patterns.

What can I say, it works Very Happy
