Octopussoir Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 That example seems okay for one day, but where are your veggies and other fruits? The cheapest way is to go to the grocery store and get a 1lb bag of fozen mixed veggies(stir fry type without the seasoning) and steam it. Eat a bag or two at a time with a little bit of black pepper, garlic powder, and maybe a Tbsp of light soy sauce. Your body needs nutrients not necessarily calories. Pasta might make you feel full if you eat enough of it. Have you ever noticed that just a little bit is never filling? PB is okay, but it does pack a lot of fat. Throw some oranges, apples, strawberries, blueberries, avacados, salad greens in the mix too. You can keep it basic, but stick to veggies, fruits, brown rice, quinoa, black/kidney beans as a staple. Try to kick regular bread and get Ezekial. Better for you and it wont spike insulin levels like regular bread will. ~jimi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aluck Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Cut the pasta, throw in veggies and fruits. How much do you weigh? What does your activity level look like? How much do you want to weigh? Age? Ect.. More info needed.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vivalasvegans Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 I would substitute ground flax seed for the peanut butter and also for the tahini in your hummus, and yeah, definitely add veggies instead of bread probably but that depends on what your exact goals are.

GreenMachine Posted February 19, 2009 Author Share Posted February 19, 2009 I'm 5"7 180 lbs trying to lose fat and gain muscle (isn't everyone?). I know I need more veggies but just cant stand the taste of them (pretty childish I know). I'm taking a multivitamin to make up for it but I know its not quite the same.
