The veg, do have cucumber with lunch, but just cant get my head round cooking that much in the evening, at the moment, not too sure why. !!!!!  

No not having protein before bed ?. Should i be and if so how much.
Can you also tell me how much i should change my nutrition for days where i dont lift wieghts. This would usually be a day in the week and the weekend.  
The day in the week i will just do some cardio, but nothing sat, sun.

You should have a protein shake that slowly digests ( spelling ) like cassien protein powder or normal whey. You need a fresh source of protein in the body before sleep to stop the body from munching up the muscle while your asleep.

And veg..veg is very good for you. You can buy little bags of mixed veg which you stick in the microwave for 3mins.. for 90p or something from tesco/morrisons. Has carrot/brocoli/coliflower in. Nice and easy and get a good dose of the good stuff.


Oh and * edit * for your meals on off training i dont change a thing. I still eat every 2hrs 30mins . Supplement wise i lower the dosage on off days. food wise stays the same as your muscles grow when they rest and therefor need protein to help rebuilt the broken muscle fibres

Hi Mel,

I agree, for me bieng sore is an indication that i have worked really hard. Today is the first day since monday that my legs havent felt like tree trunks or quite sore. The only thing is i have legs again tomorrow.....!!

I have the photo police on my case about photos too. Will do as soon as i can.

Meal 1 : oats and x1 scoop whey
Meal 2 : cottage cheese and x1 small banana
Meal 3 : X2 Eggs, small amount of mayo x2 slices low gi bread
Meal 4: Tuna and cucumber
Meal 5: whey and L-glutamine (had already done this to take to work before i realised that i should have changed it due to my workout so only had half of what i would have normally on a wieghts day)
Meal 6: x2 Whole eggs x4 egg whites, bowl oats.

x1 scoop whey before bed.

X30 Mins cardio.
No wieght training today and boy didnt i know i needed the rest too. Ended the day with a headache which i kind of still have this morning.  Got wieghts tonite and it looks like another push with the guy at the gym.
Its all coming together which is great.

Still ache like hell....!!!!!

Well as for how weekends normally go, food wise they are usually a disaster which is just really annoying for me.

However , i must just have my head where is needs to be at the moment.
Although wasnt perfect was loads better than normal, i made a point of eating meals reguarly through the day.  

Saturday
Meal 1: x1 scoop whey x1 bowl oats made with water
Meal 2: x2 slices low gi bread, x2 whole eggs and x2 egg whites
Meal 3: x1 jkt potato, coleslaw, bolognese sauce and chicken
Meal 4: Same as meal 3
Meal 5: oats, x1 small banana, x4 egg whites (this blended makes pancakes_with some fat free plain yog
Meal 6: cottage cheese, half a banana with some muesli on top.
