Carbohydrates: Sweet Potatoes, oat meal, oat bran, oat bran cereal (i.e. cheerios), bran cereal, brown rice, whole grain bread (try to limit to 2 slices per day), beans, low fat popcorn (low fat butter spray makes this a delicacy), fruits (limit to 2-3 servings per day), malto dextrin (during workout), dextrose (during workout) and vegetables. STAY AWAY FROM REFINED GRAINS AND ANYTHING THAT SAYS “ENRICHED” OR “HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP” ON THE LABEL!FANCY NAMES FOR SUGAR! Fat: Omega 3 capsules (i.e. fish oil capsules), flax seed oil, primrose oil, borage oil, olive oil, nuts (limit to 1 serving per day), peanut butter (as long as it does not contain hydrogenated oils), egg yolks, and fish (salmon especially). All other fat should come as a by-product of your carbohydrate and protein intake -------------- Great people never want it easier, they just want to be better! Ron
