Do you have any other recipe ideas LLulko???
 

Protein Pudding - YUM - Feels like your cheating and satisfies those moments of weakness!!  LOL

It really does feel like you are cheating… try protein pudding with mashed banana… it taste great
Directions
Mix cookies and cream protein powder, a little water (to make it a pudding consistency) and then 1 banana (mashed)
I first freeze the banana, and then melt it in the microwave.  It’s easier to mix…
 
Let me know if you like it??
 

chicken vegetables and rice stir fry

Tuna Burgers
1 can of tuna in water
1 egg white
1 teaspoon Mrs Dash
A little bit of light pancake mix(just enough to hold together and thicken the mix)
Mix the about items and fry in a pan until brown on each side.  Tastes great.

That sounds like a great idea.
Have you ever tryed mixing in vanilla protein powder to hold the mixture together.  You can also buy non flavor protein powder.  It adds extra protein, I will try this tomorrow morning and let you know how it goes.  Do you have any other ideas?
I love trying new things, thanks man
 

Im gonna try that idea trapzillao, that sounds like a good meal.

After weigh-ins, at weightlifting comps, I am religious about my meal.  First, lots of Pedialyte to rehydrate!  Then, I eat Irish-cut oatmeal, with 2 scrambled eggs mixed in, plus nuts and dried fruit, and 1 banana.  Between Snatch and Clean and Jerk, I eat one protein bar (and sometimes a banana), plus more water/pedialyte.
I am curious what other Olympic Lifters eat after weigh-in and between the two lifts???

That sounds like a very, very sound plan if you had to cut weight.  Personally, as a superheavy, when I competed I always liked to up the intake of ribs and brisket close to a competition.  But thats just me, lol.

 
I have seen a lot of lifters eat very similar to this. A lot of pedialyte for the people who are cutting weight and whatnot. Then, i;ve seen a lot of eggs, yogurt, fruit, and nuts. PRetty simple stuff

what is pedialyte?? what is the purpose of eating this food???

It is a formula for babies that has tons of electrolytes and whatnot. It is used to repleneish babies when they have diahrrea or are vomiting. That way they’re electrolytes are back in balance right away (As opposed to just drinking water). Wrestlers, fighters, and boxers drink this stuff CONSTANTLY

ohhh.. that is great to know! thanks.. i wonder why post people dont drink this

I think it is honestly just a lack of education. It is an absolute staple of most endurance athletes nutrition (especially boxers/mma guys/wrestlers) like I said. They live off this stuff during intense training cycles

what does it taste like?
Do you mix it with anything?
 
 

egg white pancakes or egg white muffins.
Off-season or when I can have carbs, I stir oatmeal or butter flavor grits in liquid egg whites and cook on the stove top or bake in a muffin pan.
During contest prep I stir protein powder in the egg whites and cook as above.  You can also place 1 scoop of protein powder in a cup and slowly add warm water while stirring to make a paste. The paste is used as a topping (icing) on the cooked egg white pancake or muffin.

rick sound sounds good… i make protein oatmeal pancakes every morning.. i add about 1/2 cup berries in it and ALOT of cinnamin in it. like almost a tbsp! it changes the whole taste..
 
i like your  protein icing idea.. i sometimes add greek yogurt..

That may sound like the best recipe ever, protein oatmeal pancakes with berries? WOW

seriously i am addicted.. i was away all weekend and we went to “homemade” breakfast diner.. everything was fresh but i still missed my pancakes lol.. i almost felt like asking the chef to make me my pancake.. i was happy to eat it this morning.. pretty sad right ?

Haha  no it is not sad! It is healthy :) If it were a McDonalds mcfluirry then it would be a different story. Speaking of those - I shouild go get one right now :) hahah totally kidding!

Ha-ha… yeay i am a sucker for my pancakes.. But at least it’s healthy!!!
 
 Omg!! I use to get mc flurries all the time when i was younger… oh boy! Those were the days when i didn’t even think twice about junk food…
 
I was so skinny that my mom was just happy if was eating something… I never understood why it was bad to eat junk food which was sooooo wrong… She would try to force me to eat some fruit but i never understood why…  i will never forget when i was eating a snickers bar and offered a piece to an older women… she refused because she was watching her weight… I remember being so confused thinking “really just one snickers?”.. I get it now! I always thought it was just bad because it spoils you appetite for dinner ahahah
 

Wow, really? That is interesting. Although, I used to eat mcflurries all the dang time too haha1 Reese’s yahhhoooooooo

I will never forget it - I Remember being at a wrestling meet and seeing one of the top ranked wrestlers drinking mountain dew and donuts between matches. I mean it is one thing to want to make sure you have enough carbs - but straight sugar like that? The dude ended up winning state. Dang genetics sometimes haha!

hahah yeah! dam those people lol..
 
although!!! just because they look great on the outside does not mean they are healthy on the inside!!
 
.. i HATE people that can eat what they want, do barly no cardio and not gain a single pound! (jk i dont hate you)
 
 

Thank you Laura!!!!!!!I tell people that all the time, a not so insahpe looking person can be alot more healthy then a skinny person. It’s all about what you eat and how you feel, not how you look. Now I am not saying to look like a pig on purpose and say say “o well im healthy”. But I would deffinitly try to eat as best I can and how yolu look is how you look, just be happy with yourself and being healthy.

i don’t really agree with your comment … (accept the way you look).. You can always strive for goals to gain more muscle or lose fat… that takes work obviously however i don’t  believe people should just settle.. There are many ways to manipulate your diet… just eating healthy does not always cut it…
 
Depending on your goal and body type you have to be cautions about how many carbs fats and protein you are taking in… I don’t count calories however i am aware of portion size and measure food…
 
this applies to people that want to change thier bodies.. not peopel who just want to maintain a so called “healthy” weight

Granola bars are a go to competition food for me. Yummmmm

Good point Laura, I was talking mostly about the athlete side however, I think that all people deal with physical apperance issues. What I was saying was that no matter what your goal is, be happy about the fact that you are making the effort to be heatly and that you are doing something to better yourself.

 
 
oh i see!! yep .. i agree.. make it a lifestyle, do your reseach and put your health first before anything… you can never go wrong with that!
