Up your carbs at lunch with grains and vegetables. Can you replace at least one of the protein bars with whole food? Dinner should have some veggies, maybe a sweet potato,. What time is your post-workout shake? And what time is bedtime? -------------- If you fall down seven times, get up eight.
goldengloves Posts: 690 Joined: 2003/09/19	2004/04/12, 05:08 PM I have a ton of lettuce/tomato/carrots/green peppers with the salad...Or I will just put some lettuce in a bowl or pick up some baby carrots and a green pepper and eat away as a snack!..... Im getting around 20-30 grams of protein for breakfast Id like to shed some of the body fat but at the same time gain muscle.... Replacing it with a whole food would be a long shot considering im at the school from 7:30-1:30 My post workout shake is usually around 6:30 and bedtime varies between 9-11 depending on the night....11 being weekends and 9 on weekdays.
