Quick follow up from yesterday. Rereading
my post from yesterday it sounded like I was prescribing myself a total low carb diet. That's not what in reality I'm trying to do. What I'm trying to do is time my carbs so that I ingest them when my body actually needs them. When I'm sitting at my desk for 8 hours probably isn't the time to have a sandwich. I'm not going to use all those carbs and they will be stored as body fat. The time when I will need them is before my workout in the morning. This is the time they will not go to waste. This is how my meal plan looked today:
- Bowl of Oatmeal (before I work out)
- Muscle Milk (immediately after I workout)
- Egg white omelet with turkey sausage and peppers
- Chicken breast with broccoli and cauliflower
- Chicken breast with broccoli and cauliflower
- Handful of Almonds and a string cheese
- Pork Loin and roasted asparagus
PS-Went for a run tonight with a strong wind advisory in my area. Try going for a run when the wind pushes you back a half step for every step you take!
Hi Joe! Sounds like you and I are doing something similar. I'm trying to time my carbs as well. It seems to be working! Hope you have a great week! Jenn from Healthy Fit Jenn
