hi cc,
those numbers were not intended to define what i ate, but more as starting points for people. i know my overall fat percentage will be abysmally small in your eyes. and i truly have no idea how many calories and protein i get each day. like i said, it can vary wildly, depending on my activity level. i took the day off from the beach today. but here is what i ate yesterday. i add stevia and flavoring (many of them essential oils) to stuff, and nutrient powders, but i am omitting things that have very little caloric input.
my main staple is what i call my protein concoction. i eat this twice every single day, as it is my main protein/fat/anabolic building food. i am actually weighing things currently, so it will be the first time that i have this accurate of a measurement.
1)60 grams of protein powder (half milk protein, half soy protein).
2)15 grams of an equal mixture of alfalfa leaf powder, grean tea powder, and kelp powder.
3)30 grams of nutritional yeast, which is almost exactly 2 servings. each serving is 8 g protein, 1 gram sugar and 1/2 gram of fat.
4)10 grams of equal mixture of chlorella/spirulina/green barley grass powders.
5)32 grams of carob powder - enough to make the mixture a dark brown, instead of icky green - LOL.
6)15 grams of natural herb powders. equal mixtures of peppermint, spearmint, hawthorne berry, black walnut, fennel, parsley leaf, milk thistle seed, bee pollen, siberian ginseng, saw palmetto, licorice root, horsetail, coriander seed, cumin seed, ginkgo leaf, eyebright, catnip, bilberry leaf, and celery seed.
7)1.5 tablespoons of safflower oil.
again, the above concoction i take religiously twice every day, irregardless of my activity levels. yesterday i went to the beach and did my cardio. here is the rest of what i ate. currently the fruit in season and cheapest for me the past few weeks have been green grapes, watermelon and cantaloupe. i ate 1 pound 10 ounces of grapes, and 1 cantaloupe (the one in the frig currently weighs 3 pounds, 5.7 ounces). but note that the pounds of grapes are just that, as the remaining twig weighs next to nothing, but the actual fruit of the melon is a lot less than its weight.
i bring 2 workout drinks during the day. each has appoximately 30 grams of whey protein and 6 ounces of juice concentrate (pineapple in one and apple in the other.)
when i came home, i ate another bag of grapes about the same size. i ate 2 servings of 60 grams of my milk/soy protein with another approximately 6 ounces of pineapple juice concentrate. (60 grams plus 6 ounces in each one)
then the last thing i eat in most evenings is 40 grams of flax meal, which turns out to be almost exactly 6 tablespoons, which according to the bag would be 13.5 grams of fat and 9 grams of protein. i also dring my apple cider drink, where i put in my amino acid powder supplements, which weighs 5 grams.
now this is a day at the beach, in the sun, exercising vigorously, so the amount of water intake is probably extremely high. the days when i lift weights will have a much different look, and there are at least 2 days a week where i go to the restaurant and get my fresh salad.
