G'day everyone,I'm starting my prep phase as of tomorrow. Iv been using an old excel document to calulate every protein, carb, fat & calorie. I know a lot of people say to to worry about calculating but i find it easier to do so....Any input into the diet i have formulated would be great......I'm 28 weigh 189lbs, 86 kilo's. Over 15% bfIn the past iv been following a traditional bodybuilding high protein, low carb diet. From what i'v read i need 189g of fat and proteinDiet for day off as follows:*Waking*CoffeeCream x 2 tbsp*Lunch*Chicken Breast 250gCoconut Oil 20gMixed SaladOlive Oil 36g*Snack*Protein Shake 22gCoconut Milk 125mlEggs x 2Almonds 50g*Dinner*Steak 250gBeans x 2 cupsButter 40g*Before Bed*Cottage Cheese x 1 cup187g Protein / 11.4 Carb / 187g Fat / 2627 calories
That looks pretty good. You may want to consider swapping the protein drink for food though, they can cause an insulin spike. 22g isn't a lot but I would air on the side of caution there.
Thanks buddy
Just a quick question…. how did you calculate 11.4g carbs?Between 2 cups of beans and 1 cup of cottage cheese alone, that is a lot more carbs than that.I'm also trying to figure it all out.
From what I read I didn't need to calculate fiber carbs but now from iv been told I need to cut out the beans.With cottage cheese I calculated it from the tub
I'm sure there are some variations between different brands, but 2 cups of beans and 1 cup of cc would add up to roughly 50g of carbs (and that's minus the fiber in beans). That's why I was curious how you came up with 11.4gI used to eat beans a lot, but now I only eat them after a workout.
1 cup of cottage cheese = 37p – 4.6c – 13.7f

Um no. Where are you getting your nutrition info from?
Um Yes…..I have the tub of creamed cottage cheese sitting here right in front of me....Maybe Australia's cottage cheese is lower in carbs.I can post a snap shot.....Diet now has been formulated with higher fats coming from meat and I no longer use powders until post workout
Um no. Where are you getting your nutrition info from?
"Um no" to which part of my post?Black beans - 0.5 cup has 19g of carbs, 7g of fiber... so 2 cups have 76g (or 48g not counting fiber).Cottage cheese - 0.5 cup has 4g of carbs... so 1 cup has 8g.48+8=56... I called that roughly 50g.I got my nutrition info from the labels. Where are you getting yours from?
