I'm not training at the moment just sparring.

But there are a few things I'm eating that are keeping my weight down, I'm actually nice and trim because of these foods.

I made a dish yesterday.
Atlantic Salmon darnes fried in lemon and extra virgin olive oil.
They were the business!
Had some whole wheat pasta with em and a side of potato salad.


No need for any fatty sauces because of the lemon.

How to eat well
Italian marinaded chicken
A lightly buttered Asiago Bread
Honey glazed steamed carrots
Green Pepper with a honey dijon sauce

That was dinner last night,and I was the cook,no eating out
Light on the carbs,mid realm on fat,lots of vitamins(allways steam your veggies,or eat them raw,you lose vitamins if you boil them)

[donnydarkoIRL]

When I was training for asthetics or even MMA, a friend of mine who is a pro bodybuilder and personal trainer taught me that his nutrition success was predicated on making his body a science project... He was willing to pay the price of eating at the expense of getting the results he needed even if it was tasteless and bland..

When he hung out or did the night life or etc, he had a cooler full of bag of salad, boiled chix breast, hardboil eggs raw baked potato... he just ate to give his body what it needed.. Without regard for flavor

So at times in my training i did the same thing just to get the results I needed.. And looked forward to my cheat day on Sunday were I splurged and ate the wings, pizza or burger.. while still making sure I ate the healthy calories I needed

Boiled chicken is meant to be the business.
It's also reputed to be tasteless though.

Broil man,you can pour off the fat,but you save the flavour

Yea no kidding

as a rule of thumb I put salsa on just about anything thats lacking flavor. I also love avocado as well and 2% breakstones cottage cheese(Best Flavor hands down)

Salsa, I like it a lot, never really checked it's nutritional value though.

I don't mind if it's not exceptionally good, I'd be happy if it's just not bad!

A dirty little cheat I use
Late night, your hungry
Well take some chicken strips,breaded
Put a little hot sauce on them
Some romaine lettuce,some iceberg
Your salad dressing of choice
Two pieces of toasted wheat bread
Good eating

This is a good thread.

All cottage cheese is god,I dont care if its the store brand
Another easy little thing you can do
Take your cottage cheese,and sprinkle a little oregeno and parsley in to it,so it isnt the same old,same old
The recipe is technically called "herbed curds",but lets face it,its cottage cheese with a little oregeno and parsley sprinkled in

Sorry I'm just getting to this part. I don't get on line very much. I've heard that boiled chicken is the business too. I was thinking that to try to give it a little flavor you might want to try adding some herbs and spices to the water you are boiling your chicken in to cook some flavor in. Something like basil and oregano or something maybe.

Here is a CHana masala (Chickpea curry) recipe that I made the other day. I add chicken to it too.

1.

Fry some chopped onions and garlic ( 2 cloves) until soft. Garlic is optional. In a separate pan boil about 5 cups of water with a chicken stock cube.

2. Add about 2 teaspoons of finely chopped ginger and fry for about 2 minutes. Make sure the pan isnt too hot or it will burn.

3. Add 2 teaspoons of tumeric and then throw in 1 or 2 chicken breasts cut into small pieces.

4. Once the chicken is cooked, pour in a can of chopped tomatoes, the chicken stock, and a can of chickpeas. I also add some some brocolli and aubergine. Also add a bay leaf and a few cardamom pods if you have them available.

5. Add some salt and black pepper, and about 2 tablespoons of garam masala. Bring it to the boil and let it simmer until it thickens (will take about 30-50 minutes).

You dont have to be strict with measurements of tumeric and garam masala. About 2 spoons of each tastes right to me but its really individual preference.
Its a very mild curry and its fairly easy to make. With rice it should do 4 fairly large portions.

I basically do that too, JT. Have cheat days. Except with no regard for calories. Will eat a whole box of chocolate chip cookies! Endless pizza pops! Ice cream sandwiches until I can barely move! Cream Soda pop! lol

Much as I like eating that stuff though, I really do feel a difference in my body almost instantly. I think I have trained my body to expect good food, and now when I do eat lots of that crapolla stuff, I think it sorta tries to tell me..."Dude...wtf?!?!"
