Whats your opinion on "fake" meats

I'm Indian and was raised a vegetarian and I really had/have no inclination to try meat, although I do eat eggs. I'm also Type 1 diabetic so I can't really eat a ton of beans either because I have to count carbs and I really don't want to stab myself with a ton of insulin. I am not overweight either (5'8", 160lbs, with what looks to be 15-20% bf). Like I'd much rather eat rice with Gardein Sweet and Sour Porkless Bites than eat rice with beans and tofu day in and day out. I eat my fair share of nuts and fruits and protein shakes but I really wanna get my macros from actual food.

I only started watching my nutrition less than a year ago and I'm still tweaking my food sources but my primary sources of protein are tofu, fake meats, nuts, egg whites, and nonfat greek yogurt.

Let me what you guys think.

Frustrated with myself relationship with food

Hello, long time reader, not so active message poster. Hit a point where I thought I'd reach out to get some help regarding nutrition. Since March of this year I've managed to shave off 25 lbs of fat through exercise and a decent diet. I workout about three or four times a week and follow the caloric deficit guide on My Fitness Pal when I plan out my meals

I'm not big a muscular but I am happily seeing some nice toning and a bit of muscle development happening. I'm in my early 40's and am very happy with the positive turn I've taken with my health. I'm 6'0 and was close on to 40 pant size but now a 36; would like to get to a 34

It has been a road of much learning about exercise and diet

I haven't given up any type of food, just severely reduced the amount of certain ones; I can count on one hand the number of beer I've had this year. For that matter, I'm finding I enjoy eating cleaner now. I don't have to force myself to eat healthy

But it seems like I'm currently spinning my wheels trying to stick to a healthy diet. Just now I somehow gave in to two muffins, a cupcake and a bag of chips. That is so unlike me lately and it frustrates me that I don't have the will power I seem to have had to resist. It's been like this since September; some days are good, some days are bad. I can feel it at the gym too; when I have a couple of days of good eating I feel strong and pumped for exercise. On bad days like today if I'm lucky enough to not feel bloated, there not energy. I guess from lack of nutrition

I'm starting to ramble bc I'm frustrated and disappointed with myself. Like I hit a wall or an addiction to junk food. Has anyone experienced this? If so how did you manage it or get through it? Any advice is hugely appreciated

Small Appetite, gagging.

So basically I have a problem.
I have a very small appetite. I cant eat eggs in the morning or ill gag, i dont like the taste. Same with some smoothies. I have to force myself and not think about it. My appetite is so small, after eating a meal I can be set for the rest of the day. Sometimes even when im hungry i cant eat certain foods cause when im eating them ill force feed and i just cant anymore. The gagging is a mental thing, and its annoying. Does anyone have this problem? What are some ways I can keep my calories in check? Eating is all the time such a pain for me.

Tips For Meal Planning With Your Slow Cooker

Meal planning usually brings to mind ideas like boneless skinless chicken breasts and steamed vegetables. Though this can be a good meal, there are other meals open to you. In fact, if you have a slow cooker, you have an entire world of meals open to you that take little prep and time. Before you get stuck in a boiled and baked rut, consider these slow cooker options.

Plan Larger Meals

When you plan your slow cooker meals, try planning for much larger meals that fill your slow cooker. This can easily give you two to three dinners and a lunch or two. You don't have to eat on it for a week either. You can dish out the meal for the evening, then take the rest and freeze it for later meals. This can cut down on prep time later in the month and give you more meals than you expected for your money. Some meals to consider for this are chili, chicken stew and biscuits, and crock pot lasagna.

Cook Meats First

If you have several crockpot meals that use shredded chicken or pork, consider making all the meat first. You can put in a crockpot full of chicken or pork, add a cup of water, and cook on low for six to eight hours. This will allow you to cook the meat base for several meals at once. You can even separate the shredded meat into multiple bags with a little of the broth and no seasoning. When you get ready to make your meal, pull out the meat, and use your choice of spices or add it to your meal. This way you don't have a ton of taco meat or seasoned meat ready for a specific meal instead of meat ready for any meal.

Plan Longer Meals for Overnight

If you have meals that require eight hours of cooking in the slow cooker, consider starting them when you go to bed. Most people sleep between six and eight hours a night which allows you to sleep while letting the food cook. You don't have to worry about it burning and you are home if something goes wrong. This also means your meal for the day is ready to go without any stress.

Remember, slow cookers can make a lot of food. So, when you make a meal, consider freezing the remainder or having it again in the week. It will save you time and money and will help you stick to your meal plan and diet plan.

lean bulk/bloated stomach

Hi guys, I have been training for about 5 years(on and off) and have always been an ectomorph. I am finally packing up some muscle now and looking to get back into serious lifting with a strict diet. As I did hit a plateau before and it is most likely due to my (not-yet-existing) diet plan. Here is where I need your guys advice/tips, as I cannot find a clear answer to my question;
I have always had a bloated stomach, but abs are visible. This is something I want to get rid of. Is it possible to put on lean mass while working on that bloated stomach(i don't have love handles, so not really skinnyfat)? Should you go for a caloric surplus or deficit?

Thanks in advance.

Got kidney stones from using protein

Hey there,

I just wanted to share my experience and hear your opinion about it.
I started to take whey protein about 2 years ago, last week, after a painful process, I found out that I got a kidney stone, I never had one in my life before. After talking to the Dr he suggested it was due to the high protein diet.
Have you experience this before? If so, how do you deal with it because the price to pay it quite high if one gets kidney stones more often than not.

Eating before bed

I'm in a weird phase right now. I've lost 90 pounds, trying to gain some muscle, but still loose a few extra pounds. 3 days a week I workout after work at 4am. When I get home I have a shake and go to bed. I couldn't figure out why I'm not gaining muscle like I want to, so I started tracking my calories and activity again. I'm not eating near enough. My only option is to eat after I get home from the gym before I go to bed. I just don't want to get in the habit of doing that again,but at the same time, I want to gain some muscle and this is the only route I can see taking. Any advice, or anyone else in a similar situation? TIA.

Nutrition while going through dental procedures

Hello everyone,

I have been going through several dental procedures, and, to avoid going into too much detail, will basically be at a point where I will have to avoid chewing tough foods (softer foods are fine), and was wondering if any of you went through similar periods. How (if at all) did you switch your nutrition? More liquid meals? I am looking for as many alternatives to avoid the risk of exaggerating the issues while the procedures are ongoing.

Calorie Usage

So I’ve got my TDEE for my job type and the fact I lift weights 6 times a week which all factors into what my daily consumption should be. Now I follow this but there are times when I want to do cardio on a night aswel so adding a 2nd session of the day but feel like I need more food to fuel this and the food afterwards to recover. If say I’ve eating my daily allowance of 2400 which is what I need to be in a 25% deficit but then go on to my 2nd session of the day and burn 700 - 800 calories does that mean i can then have the extra food of that amount burnt and still be in my 25% deficit range for the day?.. As you can see it’s got me a little confused and I don’t want to be undoing the hard work I’m putting in if I’m getting it a bit wrong. Thanks for any help in advance.

Question about using a food scale

So I have a food scale so I can track how much my food weighs basically i've read the sticky: Calculating Calories and Macros - How To

And I can calculate my TDEE now with the use of that website it says, but how do I measure all of my food with my food scale? I mean you can't really measure
a peanutbutter sandwich and know how many calories it gives you, and you can't really measure all the eggs you made so how do I still know how many calories i'm getting from
these foods?

0.7g protein minimum and 0.4g fat medium per pound of bodyweight I understand that but you just fill the rest with carbs? Or you can add more protein and fat as you desire as long as you reach have reached the minimum? and there is no Carb minimum?

Healthy Choice Power Bowls?

Good afternoon.

I currently work at an office and was looking for quick and easy options to consume during lunch. We have a microwave but that's about it.
Meal Delivery is not an option because it's too expensive.

Obviously I should meal prep I know...but I got bored of chicken, brown rice, and broc**** every day.

Why don't I make something else? Well then I'd have to learn how.

Then learn it? Fine. You got me. I'm lazy.

I saw these microwavable Healthy Choice Power Bowls in our work fridge and looked them up. They're pretty low in calories and have a good spread of macronutrients. They're $3.50 a pop which could be considered pricey. But they still beat the hell out of meal delivery.

Was just curious what your thoughts were on these meals and if anyone has tried them or something similar.

Thanks in advance.

I had so much protein but saw NO gains

I've worked out on and off for years and never saw any gains. My strength never increased either. I lifted as heavy as I could without sacrificing form, and I did lots of compound exercises.

During college I worked out for a few months and ate loads of protein, but still no gains.

The problem wasn't thati want eating enough, because I ate enough to get belly fat and love handles.

I'm 5'9" and 120 lbs.

I have 5 theories as to why I couldn't gain muscle:

1) I didn't gain muscle because I was only sleeping an average of 6 hours per night

2) I didn't gain muscle because my carbs were mostly from added sugar.

3) I didn't gain muscle because only about 10% of my calories were from fat

4) I didn't gain muscle because I have an anxiety disorder (possibly screws up hormones?)

5) I didn't gain muscle because it is impossible for most people to bulk up naturally.

Which one is most likely? Any other reasons I didn't gain muscle?

cutting diet question/critique

So ive been on a cut for about 3-4 months now. I'm 6', currently 168 (started at about 178-180) and somewhere between 14-16% bf (estimate).
I wouldnt call myself skinny fat, but when I started the cut I definitely had some junk in the trunk and stomach area. Ive seen all that slim down, but still have some stubborn fat stored in the stomach area. I cant see my abs unless I flex, and then I can only see the upper ones. I'm really not sure what bf % I am, but thought Id post some info here for input o make sure I'm doing everything right as it feels like Ive hit a bit of a plateau

Diet:
I'm not crazy healthy with meal options but avoid processed food and try to eat at least a serving of veggies a day. Also take multivitamin and creatine with whey protein almost every day. Also typically do a re-feed/cheat day once a week
Macros:
pro-200g/day
carbs-130g/day
fat-70to75g/day
(I used the emma-leigh formula found in these forums to calc these)

Workout: Currently running Vikings bare bones upper/lower plan at beginner strength levels
Besides working out I have a desk job but I go for a few 10min walks a day and play basketball most Saturdays

My goal is to get to approximately 12% bf
Appreciate any input or changes I could make to optimize this cut, I'm feeling ready to bulk

cholesterol problem - need some advice

hi guy's I haven't been on this in a while.

basically I joined the gym approx. 3 months ago 4 days a week weight lifting.(been very consistent and growing etc

about two weeks ago i noticed a yellowish patch on my eyelid - i googled it and after getting around the fact i was going to die... i realised it was due to high blood pressure. so this morning i visited my work doctor which did a quick cholesterol and blood pressure test on me - blood pressure apparently was amazing but my cholesterol was 7.44 (she said it should be 5 or lower) She will not recommend me for further blood tests until she tests me again in 6-8 weeks time - due to my age (26)

currently i have spent 2 weeks dropping my calories back to maintenance until i know what is happening.
high cholesterol runs in the family (dads side) but as far as we have been told this only passes down the female line?

now the question.
i want to aim to get my cholesterol down in the next 6 weeks. i have done some research and have came to the conclusion that my cholesterol could be due to a few factors

- low fibre
- to many egg yolks
- sliced ham
- bodyfat is high - as i understand skinny fat people tend to have the bodyfat around their organs - could this be a factor?
- not enough of the correct fats( cannot consume any type of nut/certain seeds - wife is highly allergic to this)

i understand how calories in and calories out works but could my high cholesterol be due to putting on bodyfat while bulking?

i worked out my calories as per:
maintenance 2350-2400cal ish
bulk 2850cal

starting weight - 12st 3pound (170pounds)
current weight - 13st 2 (184 pounds)
body fat approx. 19-21% (skinny fat as most call it)
my bulking split looked close to
(2850cal)
180g - protein
90g - fats
280-carbs

maintenance looks like
(2350cal)
180g - protein
90g - fats
200g - carbs

my daily food normally comprises of:(2850 cal)
meal 1 -breakfast omelette 3 eggs/handful of mushrooms and about 50g of sliced ham and a sesame bagel (585calories)
meal 2 - 200g mixed veg/150g chicken breast/100g broc**** - (396calories)
meal 3 - 140g oats + 2 protein scoops - (721 calories)
meal 4 -approx. 1100 calories of chicken/potato/rice etc normally quite healthy (wont lie - garlic bread/halloumi cheese/Caesar salad 3 times a weekish)

only difference of maintenance intake is the reduction of oats.

fish is never inc into my diet (wife hates it)
beef/steak is once every 2 weeks
i do not eat the skin on the chicken.
normally go with lean meats

any help in this section would be much appreciated.

Increasing calories for bodyrecomposition/fatloss

Just some quick stats about myself, Weigh 111kg, height is 181cm 22 years old and my last dexa scan 2 weeks ago had me at 32% body fat. My trainer has been increasing my calories over the last 4 months from 2450 to currently 2750 odd ( Macros are 300g protein, 90g fat and 175g of carbs). The gym is a body recomposition gym, and They give me a training program that changes every month. I have not really seen the scales change in the last 2 months its gone from 113 to 111 and my lifts are going up ( Bench went from 85kg for 8 to 92kf for 8 and deadlift 160kg for 7 to 180kg for 7), I am abit leaner but not drastically. Before going here i had dropped 20kg on my own in the space of 6 months of gym and diet. My end game is i would like to compete in a mens physique comp, now I know I was overweight and its a big goal but i have been compliant with dieting and training since december 2017 and hope to compete december 2019. My question is - While increasing my calories i have been getting abit leaner every month but nothing earth shattering, would it be more efficient to cut calories rather then build on them? He said we are building them up to 3200 odd so we can work into a deficit from there and not lose muscle. I am struggling with the concept for the last 4 months so thought i would ask here. :) Also i went and did this test where i breath into a mask at 6am rested and it tells me my RMR( Resting metabolic rate) and that said without doing excersice and daily **** i would burn 2380 calories lying down all day)

Protein intake essential on cut?

I have been a bit lazy on this cut counting cals but not macros and know for sure not hitting close to what's needed most days.

However I have lost fat and have maintained my strength.. but muscles don't look quite as big and full which is strange as my carbs esp will be high and..

I had always related muscle fullness and size with carb intake.. as when I was clean bulking I was low carb and looked depleted but once I upped carbs regained muscle fullness.

So how essential is adequate protein intake on a cut if your still lifting to the max and going hard?

Is the 5:2 diet old science?

Watched a doc last night about a guy in his 50's seeing various professionals about the best way to reach old age without much risk of heart problems or cancer.

One guy suggested he fast on 50 calories a day, for 4 days straight. Do this once every couple of months.

The presenter did it for 3 1/2 days and his IGF-1 hormone HALVED in that time. The professional said that lower IGF-1 hormone reduces inflammation and puts the body into 'repair mode. His evidence of this was a family in some foreign country whom are basically dwarfs, with inherited very low IGF-1 levels. This family eat chit, smoke, drink, are overweight yet live into very old age with no health problems.

Some extract from a website discussing IGF-1:

This is based mainly on the effect of protein (specially from animal origin) on IGF-1 levels, as high IGF-1 levels have been associated with increased risk of cancer. This was particularly troubling considering that protein intake directly regulates IGF-1 levels: in long term CRONers, a reduction of protein intake was necessary to lower serum IGF-1 levels.

This means that, in contrast to rodents, energy restriction was not sufficient to lower IGF-1. Further evidence of the effects of dietary protein come from studies done on Drosophila, which show that protein (but not energy) restriction was critical for the beneficial effects on longevity. Similar findings in rodents have also been published. I think there are some caveats and nuances to take into account, but that is a topic for another day.

So, in humans, long term CR appears to show most of the health benefits observed in other species, with the exception of lower IGF-1 levels. Thus, the current trend is to restrict protein intake to up to 0.8g/kg of body weight.



So basically to get these benefits you have to reduce protein intake and fast. Thats news to me i've always been lead to believe there is no harm in high protein intake.

In the end the presenter settled on a more reasonable diet, the 5:2, and after 5 weeks had lost 15lb (he wasnt even fat to begin with).

Is this all BS old science, is intermittent fasting basically the most modern version of 5:2 or is it all just wishy washy bro science?

Making a diet

Hey i'm about 180cm, 172lbs and calcd my tdee at about 2250. I'm really skinny fat with 0 serious lifting exp (my failed attempts are evident by my join date but this time i'm focused) so looking to just eat a bit above maintenance and learn the lifts/progress a bit.

Prior to now my diet was 100% processed junk and non-structured so i'm finding this diet I've constructed a bit overwhelming. My macros are 155g protein (0.9g/lb*155lb) and 80g fat (was struggling to fit 85g in without going over in other respects). Trying to hit that 2300 mark.



It may seem very bland but everything i eat is bland/barebones. I'm adamant i can stick to this both mentally/financially (trying to keep on a strict budget) but in regards to macros/cals is it looking like a good start? I keep doubting my self and messing around until i'm going in circles.

I have omega 3 tablets for daily use and a multi every other day. I think with a bit more diet exp i will look into changing the sources around and adding more variety.

thanks

Should I cut, bulk, or recomp?

I took a month off from training and tracking food and I went from 146 to 156 lbs and put on some decent fat. I was lean bulking and focusing on progressive overload on the big 3. I was wondering if I should cut, continue where I left off and keep lean bulking, or eat at maintenance and get back to the numbers I was hitting on the big 3.

My stats:

Height:5'7 - 5'8
Current Weight:154
Estimated Bodyfat(Bodyscale Analyzer): 17% on regular mode; 13% on athlete mode

Full chicken breast vs ground chicken breast

I’ve been training properly for 6 months, I’m fed up of eating chicken breast so decided to buy it as I normally do from the butchers then ground it at home. My questions when tracking my calories does it make a difference if I grill 100grams of grounded chicken breast compared to a full size piece of 100g chicken breast. Are the macros the same? It’s more easier to eat grounded chicken breast since I can make them into a kebab and enjoy it much more. I use my fitness pal to track my macros but can’t find an option for cooked grounded chicken breast. Can I just use grilled chicken breast since it’s the same but I’ve just grounded it my self. Sorry if this is a dumb question but it’s just bugging me and I couldn’t find answers anywhere.

Macro Help Needed

Hi. I’m new to the forum And need some help setting macros. My case is a little complicated. I’m 47 years old-female. About 11 years ago I had a lap and placed and lost 50 lbs. Due to reflux I had to have it removed in March and was revised to gastric bypass. So I lost another 50. I’m now 5’8” and 134. BMI 21ish. I don’t think I need to lose anymore but I’m having trouble taking in enough calories to stop losing. So here my dilemma. I have only worked out/lifted on And off the last 11 years. But I’m ready to get serious again with lifting. I feel so much better with more muscle. But I’ve never been in a place where I’ve needed to not lose weight and at the same time gain muscle. I recently started testosterone pellets so I even have a little headed start or boost so I’m ready to rock and roll. I start with my trainer tomorrow.
So here’s where it gets complicated. Due to my gastric bypass I can no longer tolerate processed sugars. I can tolerate fruits really as my only sugars. I can tolerate some carbs like brown rice I’m fine with and of course veggies, whole wheat breads etc. proteins and fats fill me up so fast that I have a hard time getting in enough volume to get in 1400 calories. I’m probably averaging 1200 calories per day now and that’s making myself remember to eat. So HELP! How can I maximize and be as smart as I can with my intake? How much do I need to be able to gain muscle? But not gain fat? Also anytime I decrease my healthy fat intake my hair and ski. Look terrible so I do tend to keep healthy fats in my diet.
Sorry if this is all over the place but my brain is all over the place trying to figure it all out. My nutritionist just said “add more carbs”. Thanks. That’s isn’t helpful. Lol.
Thanking anyone in advance that may be able to help!! (Also sorry for any typos—posting from phone)

Figuring Out Macro Breakdown (Made my own spread)

I tried making my own chocolate spread, and I just want to see if anyone has any experience with this. Just thought it was something cool to learn.

​

For example, the whole mix included:

185g cocoa (740 total calories)

115g butter (820 total calories) 1

276g egg whites (150 total calories)

​

all comes down to 1710 calories. The net weight for the whole product is 576g. How would I be able to calculate the cal/gram?

Would it just be 3 cal / gram? So if I use 30g, it's essentially 90 cals?

The breakdown doesn't concern me since it's almost a 50/50 fat/carb split.

Is my bulking plan relevant?

I started lifting in June and have been bulking since the end of August. I had great results until now, the beginner gains and the fact that I was not eating enough at all beforehand I guess.
Went from 128 pounds (58 kg) to 150 pounds (68 kg) for 5.8 foot (176 cm). Accumulated some fat along the way but nothing to worry about and I have been getting stronger every week.
I train 4 times a week, always full body workouts, 2 by lifting and 2 by doing calisthenics since I want to be able to do figures in the long run.

I started by eating 2'500 calories, then 2'800 and 3'000 because my weight wasn't moving anymore at this point, but now after 1 month I'm still at 150 pounds. So I'm wondering if I should bump it up to 3200 calories or maybe even more, but most calculators give me a maintenance at 2'600 so I think I should be gaining mass at 3'000, I guess a 600 or 700 surplus shouldn't be necessary.

I actually look at the macro-nutrients more than the calories themselves when I prepare my food, 366 carbs, 146 proteins and 97 fats for 3'000 calories. I typically eat rice, chicken, nuts, wheat germ oil when I don't have enough fat at the end of the day, pastas, whole bread, a lot of milk (protein shakers), potatoes and minced meat, I also drink a lot of orange juice, raisins and applesauce for the carbs (the most difficult macro-nutrient to max for me because I have trouble eating more than 200 grams of rice in a meal since I was never a big eater). I also take BCAA and have taken creatin this whole month. Sometimes I use a mass gainer when I struggle to hit 3000 calories.

Is it possible that I have a fast metabolism and thus cannot gain weight without a 500 to 700 calorific surplus? Or maybe I don't train hard enough? (I always try to do my best, lift heavier and be exhausted when I finish my workouts, but they never really last longer than 45 minutes).

My plan is to weigh 160 pounds before January, then eat to maintenance for 2 months and cut to see those abs, etc. and have a good balance for calisthenics and climbing. Is it realistic?

Last question: I feel tired and have a lack of motivation these days, also my joints aren't aching but I feel like they're not as strong as before, should I try a de-load week and if I do, should I eat for maintenance? Gotta say my digestive system would be grateful.

I know it's a lot, but I guess the more info I give to you the better you will be able to help me, and I hope there isn't too many mistakes since I'm not an English-speaker.

Thanks in advance guys.

Skinny fat. Recomp. Help!

Hi.

I need advice on what's the best method to recomp. I've read and watched so many videos and still can't get a definite answer. I know no one is the same so answers will vary, so maybe someone on here that has recomped successfully can point me in the right direction.

I've lost about 15kg so far. I am weight training 4 to 5 times a week. So the exercise part isn't my problem.

It's the calories. My maintenance at my new weight is 2070 about. Should I continue eating at a small deficit (and how small), should I eat a surplus on wo days and deficit on off days or just stay in a small surplus everyday ? I'm 27 I weigh 58kg at 1.69m. So not overweight but I still have quite a bit of body fat ( my guess is between 20 and 23 %). Definitely skinny fat.

I really want to put on some muscle, but scared of the extra body fat. I have a lot of cellulite and loose fat especially on my lower body.

So confused.

Would appreciate any advice .

Lifting newbie - calories inquiery

Good morning,

I have an inquiery regarding my calories intake, I am fat + skinny weighing when I started at 89kg(196lbs) with 25-26% body fat.

Now , should I increase my calories intake so I can progress however I don't want to gain fat or should I continue as i am and deload Everytime I fail?

Thanks

How Does Diet and Nutrition Affect Your Health

¨ More Energy
On the off-chance that your well being is lacking in Vitamin C, B12, and folate, you could experience the ill effects of intense weariness. Exhaustion can prompt loss of energy, which can decline different conditions for your well-being.

Enhancing your eating regimen with these vitamins reduces what is known as vitamin insufficiency weakness. Isn’t it fascinating that vitamins don’t straightforwardly deliver energy? Rather, the absence of these things in your eating regimen can prompt weakness. Basically, keeping a solid admission of vitamins and minerals will enable your vitality to make strides.

How to enhance Health: Foods rich in Omega-3 unsaturated fats, chlorophyll, magnesium, and basic sugars. You can discover these in foods, such as, fish, organic products, and vegetables.

¨ Reduces danger of diseases
It is said that food high in cholesterol and immersed fats can prompt cancer, coronary illness, and that’s only the beginning. Whenever processed, these nourishments can bring about blockages of essential chemicals. On the off chance that your eating routine is additionally not rich in essential supplements, cholesterol and immersed fats can do much more harm.

The arrangement is more mind boggling than simply eating more foods grown from the ground. A sound eating regimen rich in fiber can help process fats and cholesterol considerably more, which enhances well being and reduces possibility of illness.

How to enhance health: Eat nourishment, such as, apples, dried figs, nuts, almonds, crude carrots, and other rich fiber foods

¨ Enhanced state of mind
At the point when your eating routine needs critical supplements, your body won’t have the capacity to make the perfect measure of chemicals. This influences cerebrum science and can prompt gloom, nervousness, and other inclination issue.

Your cerebrum depends on neurotransmitters, or electrical signs that fire in the mind to complete activities. At the point when your body doesn’t get enough proteins, at that point the neurotransmitters don’t work too. This can influence body controllers like serotonin, which influences state of mind.

It is said that specific fats, including soaked fats, add to temperament issue by impeding neurotransmitter action. Stay away from refined, handled, and canned foods to work towards boosting your state of mind and diminishing possibility of wretchedness.

How to enhance health: Eat foods fresh, healthy and rich in protein, such as, eggs, poultry, fish, soy, and beans.

¨ Better skin
High-fat foods like the ones found in Western eating methodologies can prompt higher generation of skin oils. The skin oils can stop up pores. Accordingly, you may get mottled skin, pimples, and the sky is the limit from there.

Rather than disposing of skin oils, you must enhance skin oils. Dispose of higher fat substance foods and push great choices.

How to enhance Health: Switch to water and teas and cut out all soft drinks. Eat solid food, such as, fruits and vegetables. Additionally, utilise vitamin supplements, such as, Vitamin D3 and Omega 3 containers, to enhance your skin supplements.

¨ Reduced weight
image
A decent decreased fat, supplement rich eating regimen can diminish weight radically. Alongside a trim waistline, you additionally decrease dangers of diabetes, hypertension, and rest apnea.

With high-fat weight control plans, you run the risk of choked or low stream veins in the body. Enhancing supplement admission can support the adequacy of oxygen maintenance in the blood. The oxygen at that point goes to crucial territories and enhances vitality creation.

How to enhance Health: Eat any food with direct fats and starches, such as, vegetables and constrained measures of natural products

Binge eating lately, how do I stop?

So I’m pretty new to these forums. I’ve read many articles but never posted my own and I decided maybe I should and I could get some help! So I’m currently at 15% BF and weigh 138 and have done a good job of maintaining this while gaining some muscle with carb and calorie cycling. I usually eat 1600 calories most days of the week and 2 days of the week I eat at maintenance or 200-300 above and up my carbs by about 100g. My maintenance is 2100-2300 calories.The other days I eat about 120g of carbs, 40-50g of those are from fiber. Protein is always high (over 150 always). Fat I usually keep around 50g. Average. However, on my high carb/high calorie days I’ve been overeating. Last one I had like 5000 calories. And was literally still hungry. All of these calories are from healthy food by the way. I’m literally over eating chicken, blueberries, bananas, vegetables, protein shakes, cottage cheese. I don’t like unhealthy food I maintain a healthy diet constantly. But overeating can’t be healthy. It’s not just out of boredom or depressing or stress. I actually feel starving. Eating 1600 calories most days of the week is the hardest thing ever cause I’m so hungry. I eat every 2 1/2 - 3 hours. All my meals are 20-40g of protein. I do pretty good. But it’s difficult. I drink well over a gallon of water as well. So I really don’t know what my problem is since this used to be so easy for me. My training has gotten more intense than it used to be. I also don’t do much cardio I have one conditioning day a week. I do workout 6-7 days a week though. Should I just start eating at maintenance every day? I’m so lost because this plan used to work so well for me for a whole year and now I have to switch it up with no clue what to do! Oh and if it helps I’m 23 and 5’8” :)

How to eat for muscle and fat loss simultaneously?

Hi, I'm a 189 pound 5'11 male strongly desiring to learn the easiest way to build muscle while losing fat. The only idea I have is to get a good amount of calories and protein according to my weight and hieght with full body strength training to gain and protect muscle mass while hoping for fat loss. But the problem is I don't know how much I'm suppose to limit sugar, sodium, and saturated fat, carbs, and anything else. So I end up not eatting enough calories and protein with fear of gaining fat with muscle which results in weight loss and having to cheat or just eat the right thing excessively to get back to around 190. I don't want to focus only on fat loss first because I start to feel and look too skinny if I let my self keep droping. I rather replace the amount of weight I lose in fat with muscle.

What are all the parts of nutrition I need, how much of it, and what does a daily meal plan look like so I can satisfy those limits to achieve my goals?

Thank you in advance.
