Well,
It wouldn't be a fitness forum without the nutrition thread. This thread would be the official thread for discussing diets, nutritional info, changes to diet, amount of protein/carb/fat intake, macros, etc.
It should be a good thread for those of you that do bulking/cutting seasons (I do not anymore).
Personally, for me - I've cut out meat from my diet completely (for a month or so). Saw a documentary advising how unhealthy processed meat is for the body so I've kind of went on a 'cleanse' for a little bit, seeing how I feel.
My main sources of protein right now are: Black Beans (good for protein and fibre intake, terrible for taste when you eat it as regularly as I do), tofu/cottage cheese, and protein shakes (most of my protein is coming from this right now, especially days when I get sick of eating the other 2. I have minor protein sources too, like almonds and stuff of that nature, but that's primary of fats. Forgot to add my eggs every morning. 4 eggs - 3 complete (with yolk), one egg white.
Carb sources: Banana (Post-workout), Green Apple (Pre-workout), Brown Rice (Pre-workout), a Spinach pizza I make myself on whole wheat bread (It's pretty healthy, eat it every morning). Black Quinoa for protein, fat and fibre. Veges.
Fat sources: Almonds, Quinoa, Peanut butter, as well as trace from the rest of my diet.
