Newbie - EAS / BFL/plan question

[yosshimura]

Hello everyone, I have been lurking around for a few days and checking out the archives for info...lots of good info....

I have some questions...... . Since April 2001, I have lost about 40 pounds or so gradually by cutting down fast food, eating smaller protions, etc...but based on my own way of dieting, and riding my bike every other day for about the last 60 days or so.......

Two wks ago, I figured since I progressed so much on my own, I want to work more within some guidelines and joined the gym, doing cardio and some light weights daily(rotating muscle groups) and eating or trying to eat 6 meals a day....

Problem? I haven't been able to find specific info on putting together those 6 meals, and or what specific workouts to do. AS I was surfing on here I read about BFL, signed on their web page, but it is painfully slow......I have been trying to finish the meals portion of the plan for two days, their web page is just crawling ..... It is now 9:30 SUn, and I still don't have a meal plan for today or this wk ... and didn't see much workout info on there. Do you need to buy the BFL book or can you get the stuff online?

Any other place on here I can get a diet plan for the 6 meals?

thanks

buy the book"the metabolic diet"by dipasquale

I don't think you can get all the info on-line (free) the program wants you to buy the book "body for life" by Bill Phillips
You could look the book over at your local bookstore.

That's fine, I will check Amazon for the book then.

I was hoping there was something online so I wouldn't have to figure calories, fat, etc the old fashioned way (guess I am used to doing things online ) .

thanks

If you already know what your nutritional requirements are use http://www.fitday.com to track what you eat.
I just don’t know what the book recommends.

The Truth

The book is not the metabolic diet"by dipasquale its BODY FOR LIFE by BILL PHILLIPS and you can buy it online at amazon.com etc

The book is excellent and has all the info you need. If you cant prepare 6 SMALL meals a day then try getting yourself the MYOPLEX Lite shake from EAS, its a diet meal replacement shake.

Anyway try these other BFL links
www.bodyforlife.com
www.eas.com
www.eas-au.com
www.eas-sa.com
www.bfl.co.za

10 Minute South West Chicken - AUTHORIZED

1 serving
You would need a George Foreman "lean mean grilling machine" to make this possible. This is a quick way to have chicken breast during lunch. Take two 3oz. chicken breast and some black pepper and some chopped up mushrooms, onions, or whatever you like on your chicken. Place the chicken on the grill with the chopped foods and in ten minutes, you can enjoy the fresh taste of grilled chicken with your favorite carb, without the wait. This has been very good in between my classes. Enjoy!
