    WTF is 1oz of chicken? A chicken strip? You can eat more than that you're not going to put on weight eating grilled or baked chicken.

    You dont have to eat the same thing everyday. Just create a caloric deficit :tu Find out how many calories per day your body needs to sustain its weight and create a deficit from that. Knock off a few hundred calories or so, add in exercise and you're good to go :tu

    I would love the life of trying to gain weight LOL my diet is pretty OK, I just need to cut down on portions because I eat/snack way too much. I would like to cut about 10-15 lbs in the next 2-3 months but for now...

    Breakfast: a banana and lots and lots of coffee
    Lunch: coffee usually. Maybe a granola or protein bar. Sometimes a small salad
    Dinner: 1/2 cup of beans, salad/ veggies, and a sweet potato
    Snacks: granola bar or protein bar or nuts or a sweet potato

    Oh, and I'm always at the gym- doing cardio... but I don't lose anything

    Damn female diets are WOAT.

    I dont have a set diet, just try and be very aware of what I eat. Mornings will usually be a protein(egg and some lean meat) probably with some veggies. Oatmeal occasionally.Some fruit(banana,pear,apple) or maybe some yogurt.

    I try and snack throughout the day staying away from refined carbs. Usually protein.

    Incorporate as much fiber too from grains in the form of whole wheat breads and brown rice.

    When it comes to meat i eat whatever but try and stay away from fried foods.

    Im trying to bulk up as im fairly lean. I dont even do much Cardio but Yoga is GOAT. For me its not too hard to maintain my diet. Lately tho ive been ingesting too much sugar. In those damn juices. So ima drink more water like I used to. I dont really follow a diet its just lifestyle changes with some proper exercise. Weight training is good for ladies too yall always worry bout getting brolic.

    No HFCS, few simple sugars, etc.
    Creatine in my body everyday and along with nitrogen oxide.
    Along with extensive power lifting and weightlifting every 3 days, follow by cardio and vortex exercising the next 2 days. Then before I go to bed at night, I do about 5 sets of diamond push ups and spider push ups as well.

    i'm trying to put on like 20lbs this year (i got that insanely fast metabolism too), so i'm gettin serious about eatin right and exercising. i've started on the protein shakes and have been pretty consistent

    breakfast: egg white omelet w/ veggies, slice of turkey bacon, half a grape-fruit and protein shake

    lunch: either a salad with some lean chicken and light dressing or a veggie wrap, and baked chips (i love chips), protein shake

    dinner: i eat all kinds of things for dinner, i usually stick to lean meats. like last night i made some meatloaf using ground turkey and some steamed veggies. i like rice too. and i drink a protein shake after

    i don't like to deny myself, so i'll eat what i want, i just watch my portions, and try to cut out as much fat as possible when i'm cooking.

    for exercise, i do kundalini yoga for 60-min 3 times a week and pilates for 30 min twice a week. at home, i use my elliptical machine for like 15 min every morning, and do like a 100 crunches, i'm a stickler for nice abs, so i try to really stay on top of it

    Hi kai, I like your style of diet, with your workout though, You might want to do squats as well, with a little weight resistance. This will tighten your buttocks, hips, thighs and abs at the same time, even though you do crunches, squats target each area.

    As for you gaining pounds, since you want to gain 20, You might want to eat less meals in bigger portions. This will rise slightly.

    Damn, look like some of yall subscribing to that concentration camp refugee diet.

    No diet but I keep carbs low and slow (minimal sugars) which includes no white rice or white potatoes. I diet like a diabetic most of the time with at least 200G of protein a day. I try not to eat more than 40G carbs at any given meal.

    Typical day
    Breakfast: Oatmeal and egg whites with 1 yolk, or pancake mix with protein powder with low sugar jelly, or slow carb and 50G protein shake
    Lunch: Left overs from dinner -probably throw a piece of steak between 2 pieces of whole wheat bread or a chicken/turkey breast sandwich
    Snack: whatever
    After workout: Shake
    1 hr after workout: usually Shrimp or Steak and Eggs or something with high protein moderate fat and less than 40G of slow carbs
    Snack: whatever but VERY low carb before bed

    But one day a week usually between Leg day and Back day workouts I'll eat some pizza or Popeye's Chicken. You know how n---z is with they popeyes.

    Don't really have a "diet" but once you really get to know how the macro/micro nutrients affect you, it really don't matter until you trying to get to 10% or below bodyfat while keeping muscle.

    When I am dieting I like a little bit of variety. That way I don't get sick of the same thing every day and I lose motivation when I have to calculate calories during the day. The key thing for me is planning and making what I can ahead of time.

    breakfast: oatmeal /yogurt & fruit/ veggie & eggwhite scramble/ protein shake
    snack: protein bar
    lunch: fish & veggies/
    snack: babybel cheese/string cheese/baby carrots/pistachios
    dinner: baked chicken or fish & veggies/lentil soup/veggie soup & salmon/chicken salad

    after workout: protein powder in 8 oz of light chocolate soy milk.

    Yeah, actually it is.
    Alot of good food isn't bad once you tweek it.....

    For instance, think lobster, crab, prawns, scallops, and other shellfish
    ...all very high protein, very low fat and very low carb. As long as you tweak the meal right it's all good.
    As long as you don't screw it up by adding tons of butter and other ? , you good.

    Like right now, I'm eating some jambalaya with chicken (breast meat), shrimp, crab, okra, diced onions, chopped celery, tomato, corn, peas, with brown rice. I spice it up with pepper (black, a little red) instead of salts.
    As long as I don't go nuts with the portions it's a decent healthy meal with virtually little fat and low/slow carbs (corn is starchy though). This is a very good post-workout (lifting) meal. Or a decent anytime meal with a smaller portion. Eating healthy and enjoyable foods is not hard once you get the hang of it.
