>>18053 every meal must have protein in it. so you're looking at protein, carbohydrates and fats in every meal. or protein + carbs or protein + fats.
protein has the added benefit of making you feel full but not being so accessible as an energy source. so it helps you loose weight in that respect; this is the basis of the aitkins diet.
don't use the aitkins diet.
not looking at quantities, meal could be something like red meat/chicken/fish + raw salad + couple of bits of baked/boiled pumpkin. or just poached/scrambled/boiled eggs.
as a general rule, cut out the starch and increase insulin sensitivity and you'll start dropping bodyfat. and i mean cut it out, no cheat meals for you as you don't have time. be strict anon. so no bread pasta rice potatoes *or* related products. at all.
maybe skip workout drinks while you loose weight though, as an after thought.
so look at food groups. you have to build every meal around protein. then add other stuff for the energy requirements. 5+ meals a day, two hour spacing is the ideal, even for athletes.
no candy. you want to loose weight fast then be strict. post comp with your new diet plan you can work it in.
for exact meals, info on caloric expenditure for lean body mass, use bodybuilding sites. start now. this sort of reading for yourself helps you get your shit together more than a bajillion help threads. you'll learn to sift through bullshit; remember the best info is referenced info.
here is some info on dietary fat from a very useful site. notice how the guy has a phd in the field he is talking about.
