7 Meals per day:

*3 Carb Meals On Training Days

*No Fats

1/2 cup carbs on training days (first 3 meals)

1/4 cup carbs on non-training days (first 3 meals)

*Only green vegetables (no carrots, corn, etc.)

For spices: Cholula or Franks hot sauce.

I have brought my weight down to 188 and feel great other than not having much energy to lift heavy. This is most likely due to the reduction in carbohydrates later in the day.  I have been traveling a lot lately for work but have been busting my butt to get all of my cardio sessions in.  The more I do cardio, the faster it goes by.

*Eat frequently (every 2 hours).  This nutrition program will turn your body into a fat burnin machine with constant clean fuel being forced into your system in proportionate macronutrients combination that your body will process efficiently.

*Drink plenty of water throughout the day.  Thirst is often mistaken for hunger!  Drink .5 ounces of water for every pound of body weight.  A 200 pound person should drink at least 100 ounces of water (approximately 1 gallon).
