what's your approach to diet

[Yung Wun]

for myself, its all about timed and macro combinations. for instance, i'll only have P/C or P/F meals and the amounts are in correlation to my activity level through out the day. Of course my energy balance would be in negative or positive depending on what i'm trying to achieve. when bulking i may be more lenient towards my my macro combinations but everything else remains the same, whether i be attempting to put on some size or lean out.

whats your approach to diet?

I only pay attention when cutting. I stay at whatever my BMR is. Usually around 1800 cals per day. I try to keep my protein at 200g per day and just let everything else take care of itself. If I'm not on a diet, I just make sure to get at least 300g of protein a day. That could explain why I'm so fat, huh?

what is this dieting thing you talk of? i just get really fat in the winter, because i need the extra fat to hibernate, and then towards the summer i dont eat that much fat and i run.

my approach to diet it to sneak up on it so it doesnt see me coming then I hit it on the back of the head with a frozen snickers.

I couldn't make a meal plan if my life depended on it. I could for anyone else, but when it comes to my own, I just can't seem to do it. So my approach to dieting is......RUN!

Food timing is usually inadequate due to the nature of hormonal release in the body. Low-gi/mod. protein meals will be digested within 3-6 hours after consumption, while higher-gi and lower fat/pr meals take longer.

I suggest every 2 hour food intake with smaller portions, even if you're not hungry - eat every 2 hours.

Isocaloric diets are a good start but low-carb is the way to go for heavier individuals.

My approach to diet is to eat healthy. I just usually try to consume most of my carbs in the earlier part of the day, eat a little protein at every meal, eat meals/snacks at 3 hr. intervals, keeping protein as my highest caloric intake around 50%, carbs and fats at around 25% ea. but when I'm being strict the carbs & fats go down and protein increases. My mental function suffers significantly when I go towards lower carb intake so when I'm working a lot I can not do it. Total cal's have to be 1200 or less for me to drop fat. Every now and then I plug numbers into FitDay to see how I'm doing and I'll double check that I've been eyeing my portions correctly by weighing foods on a kitchen scale or by using a measuring cup/spoon.
