Toasted mackerel sandwich sounds like a quality way to start the day. I have been eating the following: 150g of Museli 3 scoops of protein powder 1 heaped tsp of cinnamon 50g of dried fruit Pinch of salt Chopped Apple 500ml of apple juice Mixed in a one litre bowl. 900 calories of gains fuel - that tastes like cake mix. | ||

I only ask because for years I've tried to stay around 80kg and I think it's had a negative effectfect on my strength gains. my priorities have changed now. feeling healthier is now ranking above sporting performance. however, I do think that as I have dropped weight through the years I have become a better athlete lb 4 lb. my deadlift is about as good at 75 as it was at 105 for example! I know for sure a 125+ log is there with another 10kg on me but I have set myself the challenge of 120 @ u75. also want to match or surpass my best pull [240] at u75. ill still compete but winning isnt the be all and end all anymore. | ||

I think you eventually adapt to lower quantities of food. just thinking back to what I used to eat when I was up at 105-110 makes me feel nauseous. | ||

just call me J-spaz. Member 1160, 1556 posts SQ 205, BP 140, DL 260605.0 kgs @ 83kgs UnEq | It just seems like such a small amount of food. Do you not have any protein shakes or bars as snacks throughout the day to bump your protein intake up a little? | ||

Do you not have any protein shakes or bars as snacks throughout the day to bump your protein intake up a little? no. 'dinners' are probably what you would call a large portion so maybe seems like less than it actually is. forgot to say that I have a couple of brownies after training which prob have a pretty high cal count. and that, except for the apres training brownies, I eat dinner at 2-3 and then dont eat again till breakfast at 6.30am. so a type of intermittent fasting I guess? but my food intake is much higher at the weekend. we usually have a big meal over the weekend like a roast with all the trimmings or cooked breakfast or something like that. | ||
