Too Much tuna

[Gcis40]

I am just starting a cylce of aratest, winny and finaplix I am trying to keep my mass but loose some bf percentage. But I am a student at WCSU where I also play football and it is hard to eat right so I eat at the cafe, and the really only healthy thing to eat are eggs in the morning with cottage cheese and for lunch and dinner i have one or two tuna sandwichs with one slice of cheese and then ill put more tuna on the side and ill have a little salad. SO im guessing i am eating about three or four cans of tuna EVERYDAY maybe the weekends if I go home if I have off of football I eat a little better but any ideas on where to get a little more protein from not protein shakes or bars i have two of them a day..Remember I am in college so I can't eat good chicken and meats....Also how does my cycle look????

It's not the size of the dog in the fight, It's the size of the fight in the dog!

What About Pizza?

Tuna and eggs bro, i'd get sick of that quick. When I get on the juice I plan on eating huge, I don't know if this is exactly what you want since you want to cut the BF%. But, if you were to go get a couple frozen pizzas, like 4 / $10, and they only take 18 min. to make, you can see how great they are. Even though they have more fat then you might like, they still have about 70g Protein each. I think pizza tastes a little better then tuna and eggs also. Hope this helps bro, good luck.

Drink a load of milk all the time, its packed full of good protien.

soy nuts are really high in protein also none salted peanut butter isn't bad but sparingly. If you have an oven on your floor cook some baked pototoes. yogurt non fat

if your looking to cut fat and keep muscle your gonna have to have a good diet bro. the tuna in my book is a must. I like to eat chicken, eggs, and red meat along with my tuna. red meat, whether it be lunch 3/4 lb. of lunch meat or a nice steak, is great for the goal your trying to reach.

hey cuz check out the diet section. my personal favorites are chicken breast and tuna. tuna may get old but it is so worth it to be ripped i eat a shit load of tuna and my friends give me shit about how strict i am with my diet but why even work out if your just going to eat like a slob. If you have a microwave then get some microwave chicken breasts. or buy a forman grill for your dorm room. you can also get canned chicken breast that is pre cooked. eat a lot of leafy vegtables drink milk. i don't know what else to suggest. these are just the things that i use to get in my meals all day long. hope it works out for you good luck

I agree but it sure does help when that dog with alot of fight is 300lbs.

Milk is defintely a good option. It is cheap and healthy. Try some soymilk too to help protect your heart from high cholesterol while on cycle.

People here sneer at vegetable sources of protein, but if you are open-minded a cheap way to up your protein intake would be to buy some bulk lentils and bulk brown rice and combine them in a meal. Together they form a perfect protein (just as bioavailable as any animal protein). The complex carbs will be good for you too - lots of vitamins.

Best of luck.

I don't know if this is true and it doesn't bother me that much but someone the other day told me that eating to much tuna is bad for you because right now they are finding really high levels of mercury in tuna. Does anyone know anything about this and is the amount in there going to effect your body at all

Scoop some protein on top of a bowl of cereal if ur not worried about the carbs... shreaded wheat and bran has 8g of fiber and all bran has 12g i think. The easiest way to get plenty of fiber without directly supplementing it.

You can also add equal amounts of protein and whole wheat pancake mix for pancakes. Or scoop some in cooked oatmeal.

A $25 can of whey protein is invaluable when it comes to gettin enough protein in one day. I cant see any other way to do it.

 

[Themachine01]

I usually tend to add a scoop or 2 with my tuna or other solid meals.

I too eat loads of tuna, but it helps with my scuba diving.

Actually that wasn't at all funny was it? No.

I'll go then..........

SO if you are all saying that tuna isn't all that bad what else should I eat I want to cut down I am starting my cycle next week and wanted to get a head start on my diet but I am not sure on how many carbs to take in right now I am taking in about 170 a day but that is all whole wheat bread and soymilk with my shakes but im not sure if I iam dieting the correct way how many carbs does everyone suggest when your trying to loose body fat. That is my main goal I play football for WCSU so i can't loose too much right now I am 5'5 180 I play corner back and I bench 340 squat 500 and power clean 260 so I don't want to loose much weight but want to loose bf % any sugestions. Also How does my aratest, winny, and finaplix look..what should I hope for out of that cycle?

Ok, I teach ecology. Here is the truth. TUNA STEAKS (Yellowfin / Bluefin tuna) are generally from larger species of the fish that contain higher mercury levels.

ALBACORE, and other varieties of tuna used to make CANNED TUNA for one reason or another, have lower levels of mercury. There is no risk of mercury poisoning from canned tuna!

[Themachine01]

you are definately right NFG. Ive read articles on that before.

 

[Jabs]

Switch to albacore tuna. Much cleaner and taste much better.

 

[Baddogg]

if you eat too much tuna you will turn into a woman...muhahaha

 

[pajaro loco]

You can eat chicken too without the skin men

 

[Gcis40]

You are all talking about tuna is good and all but I don't want to eat it all the time and also I want to take in a low carb diet but I hate eating the same shit. Remember though I am at college and it's hard to find good healthy solid protein and whole carbs but I have been doing my best I start my cycle in 8 days of fina winny and aratest any ideas or suggestions on how to run that one..
