My Current Diet Slack seems to be the word to describe me at the moment - I'm definitely falling behind in this journal so here we are on Jan 1, 2001 trying to catch up. After a bit of **** about the diet and supplements I'd written previously in my journal I though I better put up the diet and supplementation program I've been adhering to. (I must add that i never actually followed the other plans at any stage). So with the help of the brilliant people at Beverly International (thanks Jeremiah!) I have now got a great diet and supplementation plan which amazingly as soon as I started I got amazing results. I'm growing like crazy and am losing body fat like you would not believe! If you are interested in some help from Beverly International email me at ben@bodybuilders.com and I'll give you some info.

So, to my diet:

Meal #1
1 Whole Egg & 4 Egg Whites
6 oz Turkey or Chicken Breast
1/2 cup oatmeal
1 TBS Flax Oil
Meal #2
50 grams of Protein Powder, 2 Tablespoons of Whipping Cream, 4 Strawberries, mix all together with 18 - 20 oz Water
Meal #3
10 oz Chicken Breast
8 oz Sweet Potato or Potato or 1 cup cooked Rice
2 cups Vegetables
Meal #4
same as Meal #1
Meal #5
5 oz Very Lean Beef
5 oz Chicken Breast or 1 can Tuna
1 Apple
1 cup Vegetables

My Supplement program is much different to what it was before - much simpler but I will be trying out the supplements I haven't used yet at some stage...

Supplements:

Multi Vitamin (AST Multi-Pro 32X) in AM & PM
1 Tablespoon Glutamine (Prolab) before and after training
4 Amino Acids (Ultimate Nutrition) per meal Creatine (AST Micronized
Creatine Monohydrate):
Week 1 & 6 - 6 teaspoons per day
2 - 4 & 7 - 3 teaspoons per day
5 & 8 - 10 - Do not take
**** Repeat Cycle

Because I'm so far behind with this journal I'm going to skip out a week and make week 5 start at Jan 1, 2001 rather than December 25, 2000. Sorry about this - I'll make sure I keep up to date from now on. Tomorrow I'll be changing my workouts from the morning to the afternoon and doing 30 minutes cardio first thing in the morning so this should mean I should see a significant drop in my body fat (again).

Once again for anyone with any questions about anything e-mail me at ben@bodybuilders.com - It's a good time if you need help for a plan of attack for 2001.

Also make sure you check out Bodybuilding.com's article on Bodybuilders' New Year's Resolution. My new year's resolutions are as follows:

Build as much lean mass as possible.
Lower my body fat % to about 4% and make sure that once I decide to concentrate on adding mass it doesn't go out to more than 7.5%
Dedicate myself 100% to everything I do including school and training.
Attempt to make myself a better person (e.g. more generous, caring, kind etc.)
Help others through this site.
And as a whole be more than the best that I can be!

Happy New Year,
cheers,
Ben
