Sat: 29 262 10%
Poly 35 314 11%

Carbs: 103 303 11%

Fruits and veg can have a lot of carbs, fitday should tell you how many carbs/fat/protein there are in each item. Does your protein shake have a lot of carbs?

22

Shake is 3g of carbs per 50g. so 6% carbs. i thought that was kinda low.

do i worry about the carbs in fruit and veg?

carbs seem to be coming from:
ommellete - 24g
peanuts - 23g
banana - 24g
protein - 13g
chicken - 7g

the rest is small amounts from few vegetables and some seasonings.

23

CT once said that fitday is a great tool but not completely accurate. I used it alot in the past had a dietician look at the numbers and most of the time they over estimated on the carbs. still gives you good ballpark numbers.

24

So what do u reckon about my diet then?

should i lower them? i think ill not eat bananas nemore. 24g of carbs WTF?

also im eating more fat than protein apparently… :frowning:

25

I’d avoid fruits for now, they are high in carbs and mostly low in fiber. Myself I don’t really eat fruit, if I do it’s berries.

I don’t understand how you have carbs in these:
protein - 13g
chicken - 7g

Protein is protein there aren’t any carbs in it??? Chicken shouldn’t have any carbs either unless it’s some how processed or breaded.

Incase you missed the physique clinics check out Barti’s transformation, everything you could ever want to know about keto diets and how to do it right is in that thread, it’s hella long but damn good source of knowledge.

I was following that thread…

the “protein - 13g” is the carbs in my protein shakes.

the chicken is what fitday said.

27

Fitday presets are pretty retarded often. I personally check google or the nutrition labels and enter it myself for the most part.

28

If you really want to go low carb, then drop the milk. It is full of carbs, and it spikes your insulin, which you don’t want when trying to lose fat.

Second, I’d also drop the roasted peanuts, there are much healthier nuts out there such as almonds and walnuts, but be careful because nuts are very calorie dense, so don’t go overboard with them.

29

Roasted nuts are the only ones i can eat… the other taste horrible to me!

should i still take my shakes with milk or opt for water?

i like one with milk before bed for the caesin.

Try pecans… either way just like the ones on your body… nuts aren’t there for taste… they’re their for ahem protein and um in this case fats.

Whats the story with the late pizza? ‘no more farting around’ ? lol. . sorry been busy . . .just read the thread. . .

i think there is more economical things u can do than crucifix kickbacks!

No pizza

no banana’s. . (exception post workout. . . sometimes) get blueberries/raspberries was skeptical myself ‘silly little berries i don’t need fruit grrr’ but seriously they are lethal.

no milk in shakes (especially PWO) for now but small amount before bed with shake would be the lesser of two evils if it got u to ditch the pizza

Fitday = bollix watch the mirror/ scales/ girth measurements

How much progress are you expecting to make if youre eating pizza multiple times a week?

It just boggles my mind how meal one consists of “left over pizza + HOT-ROX”

40
