What are you eating?

[4EyedTurd]

Not sure if it belongs in the food section..

For you guys trying to building muscle, what kinda food are you eating? The things I've read are food with protein, carbs, and the good fat. I just started this last week.

So, I've been eating eggs, scrambled eggs, fried egg on bread with mayo.

Chicken baked or on the geoge forman grill.

Made rice once I need ideas what to add for flavor. Spices?

Got some yogurt and cottage cheese, not sure how to incorporate the cottage cheese yet.

eating oatmeal with fruit on the days I dont eat eggs.

Picked up a few different types of beans I've never ate to try out.

What or how are you eating?

I had a wendy's chicken sandwich and bowl of chili for lunch. Yummy.

[Silverback]

grilled chicken, and brown rice

[saleen449]

grilled beef, grilled chicken, plain rice, corn, peas for meals (3-5 times a day)

water or juice during the day(one soda allowed)

Smoothies in am and pm (ice cream, fruit, oatmeal, peanut butter, bananas, orange juice etc)

What is your main goal? There are several different ways to tackle this depending on what your goal is and your activity level. How many days a week are you going to the gym?

[bcoop]

for the rice - cock sauce, or rooster sauce (that's what it's commonly called(, it's actually called Sriacha chili sauce. Has a big rooster on the bottle.

[Ruffdaddy]

Typically have a protein shake and maybe a stick of beef jerky in the morning. Then during the Day I eat grilled chicken on top of either rice or veggies. I'll smother it in franks red hot or light cheese soup for flavor. I have a low calorie snack for sweets in there too. Then I typically have a light chicken dish for dinner again and a protein shake with some snacks.

I count calories hardcore to make sure I'm within my limits.

5am: Wake up and drink a 30 gram protein shake
9am: 3 grilled chicken breasts, 5 oz's of brown rice with a bit of olive oil, 8 oz's of some sort of mixed greens
11am-1:30pm: workout during lunch break
2pm: 80 gram protein shake
3pm: 1lb of chicken breast meat sliced very thinly between 2 pieces of potato bread
6pm: I eat very big at night, usually at least 2,500-3,000 calories in one sitting(People freak out on this meal, e.g. 3 Chipotle burrito's with extra chicken, Supermonster at Freebirds with extra chicken, Chicken Fajita's for 2 at a Mexican restaurant, 4-5lbs of chicken breasts with mixed vegs, etc...)
8pm: 50 gram protein shake and then hit the sack


I eat this everyday, I do admit the night eating needs to be tamed down a bit, but it works well for me.
