Are you doing anything for healthy fats? I’d throw in some Carlson’s fish oil if you aren’t using that already. Those meals look pretty tasty! Curious on Spongy’s opinion.

Checkout Jin’s threads on fish oil. He’s sponsoring the half-gallon a day protocol. (12 grams I think)

I haven’t gone that high yet but I do 4 table spoons of Carlson’s a day. That’s probably around 8 grams. Good stuff for those of us who are cardiovascularly screwed.

I definitely will. That stuff is amazing. My heart could definitely use all the help it can get. I saw an instant change with my skin, too, after a week of 2,150mg. I have a little psoriasis on my elbows, and they've cleared up like 90%.

Ok, this is just something I threw together really quickly between chores without taking into consideration when you lift and what muscles are worked. I typically have my clients rotate diets 3-4 times per week depending on what muscle groups are/aren't worked that day. This is a good overall diet that you could do every day and have good success.

Couple of critiques:

Drop the Body Fortress, that protein powder is trash and the company is being sued for Amino spiking and false labeling. I know it's cheap, and I get that.

If you need something high quality check out MyProtein. I use them and AtLarge Nutrition and those are the only two I will endorse. MyProtein is cheaper but it ranks as the number 2 protein based on lab tests by Labdoor.com in terms of quality and label accuracy.

If you want to give them a try shoot me an email and I've got a code that will give you a discount on your first order. I'm loving the Salted Caramel Isolate I'm using right now.

Drop the russet potatoes for now

Stay away from packaged foods like your rice mix and your alfredo thing

Limit dairy intake for now - drop the cheese and milk and add Almond Milk/Greek Yogurt



Meal 1:
1 Cup Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk
1 Cup Cold Black Coffee (Optional)
1 Cup Plain Greek Yogurt (Fat Free)
1 Scoop (approx 30g) of MyProtein Whey Isolate
1 Banana
------
Blend into smoothie

Meal 2:
1 Cup Egg Whites or Egg Beaters
1 Large Egg
1 Tbsp Olive Oil
1/2 Cup Oatmeal (Measured before cooking)

Meal 3:
6oz Grilled Chicken Breast
6oz SWEET potato
1.5 Cups Steamed Broccoli FLORETS

Meal 4:
6oz Ground Sirloin (90/10)
1.5 Cups Steamed Broccoli FLORETS
1/2 cup Jasmine Rice (measured after cooking)

Meal 5:
1 Cup Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk
1/2 Cup Plain Greek Yogurt (Fat Free)
1/2 Cup Pasteurized Egg Whites
1 Scoop MyProtein Whey Isolate (Approx 30g)

----------

Totals:
151g Carbohydrate
48g Fat
214g Protein
1961 Calories
