Stay/get back in shape...Vol: Motivation

[sneakerking757]

It took me a while to get used to swallowing large pills.

I still gag every once in a while.

It helps when I use really cold water.

Try to cook all of your meals. That way, you know what's in 'em and you can control how they come out.
Look for some 'health foods' like:
Quinoa
Barley
Lentils
Beans
Peas
Greek Yogurt
Lean Proteins

hey what makes greek yogurt so healthy ??

i got some and it tasted horrible

compared to the other flavored yogurts

 

[rightguard]

any of you guys eat hard boiled eggs as part of your 6 meal a day plan? how many do you eat? breakfast with some oatmeal or bagel?

I've only eaten scrambled in my life, so I'm not sure how many hard boiled I should be eating. And I just tried it for the first time... isn'tgreat but not bad.

Yes, but just not as much. I drink protein with my breakfast and before I go to bed every day. If I were working out, I'd take a scoop right after too. I'm trying to kill off the leftover of my cinnamon bun right now so I can try out the cake batter ASAP.

TheAbove- it's easy, man. Just takes a bit of time at first. Go look up at your BMR. Go to the local market and find stuff that you would find tasty to cook/eat and stay within the BMR budget. That, with exercise will do wonder for you.

wj4 once you try the cake batter you are gonna be hooked. I tried it and i put all my other flavors on the back burner untill i was fresh out ofcake batter. Same goes for the choc carmel pecan. DELICIOUS.

Well i did a lot of soul searching this weekend spiritually and mentally and i have re-dedicated myself to getting in shape. Starting tomorrow morning. Imgonna take pics and 3 months from now im gonna do progress pics. I will post my results then. So Dec 1st I should be posting if the thread is still around.Here's part of my daily meal plan. It will switch up on different days when i decide to have chick, turkey, or pork chops (all grilled). I will be havingthis exact meal tomorrow.

Bfast - Oatmeal w/flax and 1 scoop whey, 3 egg whites, 1 banana

1st snack - 2 slices 100% whole wheat bread with natural pnut butter, fruit of choice

Lunch - 1/2 Grilld Salmon filet, quiona/brown rice mix (Goto Fresh n Easy Market for this), veggie mix (brocc, carrots, califlower, corn)

2nd snack - 25 Raw Almonds (yes i count them out), 1 yoplait fat free yogurt, protein shake

Dinner - Same as lunch but maybe chick instead

Bedtime - Casein shake w/ Fruit added.

I totaled up this meal and this is what i got (might not be exact but damn close). Only thing i didnt add in is supplements which are Men's 1 a-daymultivitamin , glutamine caps, fish oil caps.
1950-200 CALORIES
150-160g of PROTEIN
40g FAT
150g CARBS (good carbs for the most part)
