Try for foods in there most natural state. Lean chicken is great, so are many fishes. Brown rice, oats, all bran, beans and yams are great sources of carbs providing hefty amounts of fiber. Tofu, soy products, soy milk, and organic frozen meals are great. Nonfat yogurts are good. And really...

That is somewhat true, HOWEVER, it greatly depends on the state your body is in. There are certain amino acids that can undergo a process of gluconeogenesis, which is where they are ultimately converted to glucose for energy. This will typically happen in a fasting state, or when your body is...

When you are in any type of starvation mode or caloric deprivation, a certain amount of time will pass and production of thyroxine will decrease, along with oxidation of fatty acids. This can vary depending on the person and the caloric deficit. I have heard good and bad things about having...

Chop up yams into bite size pieces or even as thin as chips. Line a pan with foil, spray with canola oil. Bake the yams for about 45 - 55 minutes on 400degrees. Sprinkle with molly mcbutter and cinnamon. Ryan

Uncle sam is a great cereal, and relatively inexpensive for a "healthy" cereal. No added sugar which is nice.....you can find it most anywhere....guaranteed at a health food store... Ryan

Crunch, Hey....good luck with everything man. you will regain control if you set your mind to it. I too can relate to your experience's. I dieted for about 8 strict months leading up to teen and collegiate nationals, and that really messed up my head. I started to obsess over food for the...
