Training and Eating for Fat Loss (Deatils - Part 2)

The most important part of any training is diet. I believe that diet accounts for 80% of our results.

All the training won’t make you bigger or stronger if you don’t eat enough protein, nor will you lose fat if you eat too much refine carbs and fats.

My diet is very simple. Whole grains, lean meat, vegetables, fruits, and nuts. Avoid salt and sugar. Definitely avoid liquid sugar!!!!

Of course, I give myself a break every 3 or 4 days. For one meal, I eat whatever I want (NOT as much as I want).

It very easy to give up and go back to old habits when you slip up. You think to yourself, “My diet is screwed anyways, I’ll just give in and start eating healthy tomorrow (or next week)”. And you go eat an entire cheese cake.

This is very self-destructive. Don’t beat yourself up if you slip up. Start doing damage control. Stop eating that cake. Throw it in the trash. You don’t have to finish that cake. Next, get back on track.

Just got back from Red Robin for lunch. Had grilled chicken breast, a bite of my wife’s Royal RR Burger, and 4 onion rings. I’ll be going to the gym later.

I love food. That’s how I got to 345lbs. I still eat whatever I want, just not all the time.

Here’s what I used to eat in Singapore. I’ve changed my diet a bit in Texas. Will have that up soon.

1st meal: Oats with skim milk.
2nd to 5th meal: Whole grains, broccoli, lean meat (mostly chicken breast), and nuts.
Bedtime snack: 500ml (18oz) skim milk and cheese.
Other snacks: Protein drink (low carb).

Diets may vary. No need to be too rigid. A little sinfulness won’t hurt, as long as it’s not everyday (or two).

PS: Strawberry limeade? Haha. Need to work on your sugar addiction ;P
