Right after I complete my workout, I drink a 50 gram Protein(Whey)/50 gram Carbohydrate(Grapejuice) SHAKE.

Then about 1hr to 90 minutes later, I consume a LEAN source of meat like chicken, Sirloin, Salmon, Lean Roast beef, and a GOOD LOW-glycemic carbohydrate source such as yams, potatoes, or whole wheat pasta.

okay, but if one wants to diet with real whole foods, there really arent any that are fat free and high in protein that are non dairy?

If you want a whole food meal w/ low fat then stick w/ canned tuna or boneless skinless chicken breasts.
That's about as good as you're gonna get.
Those foods have very little fat and the rate of digestion will not be that effected from such a minimal amount of fat.

dude cutting is more about manipulating carb sources, not fat. not to say that you can drink cups of animal fat - but you need a tiny amount of fat in at least the majority of your meals. head down to the diet board for more info... i believe this is the AAS forum.

actually i just re read the post and he didn't mention cutting. but dieting is still about manipulating carbs relative to how your body responds - more carbs for bulking and less while cutting. fats just can't be eliminated with real food and you can't build a diet around protein powder.

Agreed.
Fats should never be totally removed from a diet, not even when cutting.

Dude at no point is real food not acceptable. extra lean turkey breast/ground turkey.. chicken breast.. tuna.. just a few great examples of post workout nutrition.

Also skim or non-fat milk, with chocolate syrup... is a great source of protein, calories and simple carbs perfect for post workout
