Milk (1%) bad for getting cut and abs?

thegqman Posts: 68 Joined: 2003/05/08	2003/06/12, 05:44 PM How bad is this for getting "cut up" and does this hinder the efforts of the "six pack"? I drink about 4 8oz glassess of 1% milk a day with meals.. THANK YOU

Remember that all of the carbs that end in "ose" are sugars. Glucose (table sugar), fructose (fruit sugar), and lactose (milk sugar), to name a few. Simple carbs including sugars and some starches make it very hard to get cut.

ALL carbs are reduced in the body to the highest GI sugar in existence, Glucose. In other words, don't focus completely on carbs alone - they are necessary. Focus rather on all kcals coming into your body (from all nutrients), and how many you are burning. -------------- Michael "Trample the weak; hurdle the dead!"

The key I believe is eating a proper diet and reducing body fat. CALORIES are in fact the key. Without milk, you may be looking at some type of horsepill calcium supplement, which is NOT my style. I take a multivitamin and 2 C capsules daily. That is all the supplement I want or need. So if you want my take, I say "GOT MILK?"

I don't drink milk becasue of an allergy, but I would think that if it is worked into your total calories and macronutrient amounts, you should be able to include it. if you want to know whether it is affecting your getting lean, cut it out for a week or two and see if there is a difference. -------------- Challenge + Consistency = Results

If you really feel your having too much, try half a glass of milk after a glass of water. Then you'll still feel full and get some tasty milk.
