INTRODUCTION
In this book I have mentioned many of the meals that I have on a regular basis, these
meals are designed keeping in mind a busy lifestyle, therefore these are easy and quick
to cook. All of these meals are rich in protein and healthy, which helps in giving a
satiating experience and thus helps us avoid binge eating or cheating with diet. It is very
important to have whole foods while trying to build a good physique, because junk food
messes up really bad with your metabolism and hormones. Therefore whether you are
bulking, cutting or maintaining, try to take up to 80% of your calories from whole foods.
As you will see in this diet book, all the meals have whole foods like rice, pasta, chicken
and potato.
It is important to fuel your body with whole, unprocessed food regularly, it is the only
way you can suppress the urge to cheat and avoid binge eating.
The main thing about designing any meal is to make sure it has the important
macronutrients required during that time of the day, and the most important thing to
make sure is that all your meals have some amount of protein in it. And if you are
having a pre/post workout then it also needs a lot of carbs.
You can analyse these meals and then modify them according to your preference and
replace ingredients with things that have the similar macronutrient profile.
All the calories and macros mentioned with the meals are approximate and may vary
depending upon the ingredients used.
All the meals should be cooked with spray oil which has less than 1 calorie per spray, so
the spray oil hasn’t been counted in the total calories of the meal.
