What's a good pre-workout snack? I work out first thing in the morning and I have a protein bar first to hold me until breakfast. My favorites are Zone Perfect bars (I LOVE chocolate).

I've been getting my nuts from Holland & Barrett, though they are packaged. The energy bars from there also. I really need to read the labels, rather than assuming that if the food is from a health food shop it is ok.

I've recently started eating muesli (I use to eat cereal before, slowly making diet tweaks that I can stick to). I've been advised by a trainer to choose muesli with no added sugar or salt, one that's not toasted and doesn't contain too many dried fruits. I...

Sorry for 'answering' you question with a question, but why not toasted? And why can't you have too many dried fruits? Sorry I couldn't add anything useful to the discussion. :-(

FAT FLUSH WATER !!! You should drink at least three 8 oz glasses per day, they say the longer it sits, the better it tastes. You can eat them as well but they are intended as flavoring and still work, so that is a personal choice. The Vitamin C turns fat i...

Today was a workout day, so Chicken, Salad, Cous Cous and Pasta, washed down with a nice cold pint of milk. High Carbs, good protein and low fat.

I read somewhere that you should eat nuts 2-3 times per week but lately I find myself eating a handful of mixed nuts (walnuts, cashews & almonds - sometimes peanuts) everyday. They are plain nuts and not the roasted or salted ones. Goals wise, I am trying t...

I eat 1 cup a day unsalted. Usually walnuts and or almonds (just personal preference). And I eat them pre-workout. Good healthy fats in nuts.

Cholesterol is what helps keep your cell membranes fluid, without it they would not function well. Everything in moderation.

Absolutely not, it leads to eating a large unhealthy dinner. Always eat a good breakfast, it leads to eating better the rest of the day. I heard this from somewhere eat like a king for breakfast and a pauper for dinner

The key is to eat smaller meals more regularly. Try eating every 2-3hrs by having a daily plan. Without this plan, you will find it extreemly difficult to eat healthy and regularly. If your aim is to lose weight, then using a high protein, low carb diet...

fish or meat?
Newest answer
Turkey and chicken are of course favourites of athletes. Red meat tends to have more fat. Fish has valuable omega 3 oils. I think you should vary your protein sources, within your preferences.

My biggest problem is that I don't eat eggs, so finding a high protein breakfast can be tough. Any suggestions?
Newest answer
I got a new cook boook for Christmas - Quinoa 365 - and it has some great breakfast recipes. I just made quinoa with oatmeal and ate it with greek yougurt for 15 grams of protein. I think I will be trying a lot of their breakfast recipes out.

I'm studying a lot lately and thanks to that i'm going to bed quite late (2am or so). I have dinner around 7-8 pm (low on carbs and high on proteins) and than somewhere around 10-11 pm a protein snack (meat, low fat cheese, fish etc). So my dilemma is: is i...
Newest answer
I have half a protein bar (30g) with some herbal tea before going to bed. I find that works well. I think you should be careful about eating carbs late because with carbs, if you don't use the energy, your body will store it.
