Lol, haven't spewed yet after a workout - got real close on Tuesday though! Had to cut things a little short - no finisher!

I have an outdoor session with the trainer and a few other clients tomorrow morning, should be good for cardio and generally making me feel fcuked...

What do you guys recommend for a filling meal that is very low on carbs? I was thinking salad with chicken...but I can't really think of much else - even the brown rice I'm having now has a decent whack of carbs in it.

Low or no carb?

I always found having Cold skinless chicken breast, with salad or vegies and a little bit of light cottage cheese on top was a very filling meal..

But for 'filling' factor I try to include things in the salad like carrots.. They just make me feel fuller then just lettuce,tomato,onion

Nothing wrong with carbs - you need them for energy. Just stay away from the processed ones, like white bread.

Yeah, I'm trying to learn what my body reacts too - I'm pretty sure carbs are a major factor in weight gain for me.

Might have to stock up on chicken this weekend and substitute red meat with chicken

Thanks guys :spoton:

Lean red meat is still bloody good for ya mate..

Turkey is also great..Provided it's skinless..

I have a deli just near work that sells sliced skinless roasted turkey.. It's brilliant. Goes nice on top of a salad..

yeah, there's nothing like that local to me at work, so I'll just have to do a big shop on the weekend for the week at work

I eat alot of red meat - substituting some of it won't be a bad thing...

I work with a guy who is cutting out his 'Carbs' to lose weight..

But he didn't read the book properly..

He eats sausages and salad for lunch most days.. Drinks Flavoured Soda Water instead of normal water..

Eat Kangaroo too guys, high in protein and very lean. Forget the salads and eat vegies, broccoli should become your friend along with carrots, green beans etc. Dont eat potatoes!!!
