Good progress even from your last set of pics, so it looks like you have the diet and the routine down right!

[Nicholas_Weir]

I have a question; how much rice do you usually eat in one sitting i.e. 1 cup (measured cooked or uncooked)?

What's your opinion on whole-wheat bread as opposed to rice for a fat minimizing carb source? have you ever used bread and had less success with it?

sorry about the questions, it's just that i am thinking of changing my diet around to more rice instead of bread.

[xllx]

brown rice. Just eat shit tons of it. I used to do buns, never bread though. I used to do whole wheat buns just because i like how they toasted and stayed fluffy. And i mean, i'm on an all you can eat college dining plan for MOST of my eating. I basically eat a full plate of rice pretty stacked into a mound, and a decent sized bowl of pasta. Then veggies or beans. And i typically get seconds of whatever tasted the best. Honestly I've tracked my calories before and i always end up eating between 2000-2500 and never stray from it. Its weird.

[Nicholas_Weir]

Cool, okay thanks!

You've convinced me to eat more rice and lentils etc.

Walking back from the gym today at like 930pm, after the OSU game, walked past the ROTC building, and a drunk husband and wife were playing with the 450lb tire and trying to flip it. I walked up to them and showed them proper technique and the husband got it. Then the wife gave me a kiss on the cheek and i made new friends. hahahaha.
