I sent to the supermarket and read up on that Kashi stuff. And I saw sugars on it. And I think High fructose corn syrup?? Not too sure.

Carth IMO best low GI carbs are oats, brown rice, yams the least processed is always the best. Yeah you can have whole wheat and or brown bread but those have been processed like crazy not the best choices IMO.

So never ever ever never bread? Not even stone ground whole wheat bread? Just seems like there are so few foods ( carb choices ) to choose from. It does get a little sickening eating oatmeal, brown rice and sweet potatos after a while.

 

[SgtSlaughter]

the least processed is always the best.

^^^ exxxxxxxactly.

Not bleached, enriched, blah, blah, shit food, ect.

Cinnamon & Splenda is a good spicer upper for Oatmeal

 

[Smokescreen]

Well...how about you give me an example of your diet? Just so I can see what carbs you eat.

Same for you QT. Please.

Carth most would die on the limited amount of carbs I am on it is mostly green veggies right now. Right before lifting I will have a high gi carb like gatoraid or some rice cakes only about 20 grams the rest of my carbs that a minimal are green veggies only eating around 40-60 grams a day with a carb up of a woping 80-120 every 4 or 5th day.

How the hell do you do it? I would pass out on that low of carb intake.

I function rather well I kind get bitchy around the 4th or 5th day but yeah I only do this when cutting. If I am not cutting I will have whole wheat bread now and then and pasta a lot more often. I will be frank nothing is real off limits when I am not cutting. It is the timing of when I eat that matters I often have something high GI right before lifting.

 

[SgtSlaughter]

lol... you don't want to know what i'm eating right now.

I'm bulking (making it more of clean one than a dirty one, but I try not to restrict myself when i'm craving something)

When i'm being super clean...

it's lean meats
veggies
sweet 'tatoes
oats
olive oil
anpb
whey
water
water
water

... and then I go nutzo for a little while, lol
