After workout meal :)

[IronFist]

I just went to the gym for the first time in three weeks. I've been such a slacker. Oh, no, wait, I mean I've had a ton of school projects to do. It was squat night. Yeah!

Here's what I'm eating:

Hungry Man XXL: Backyard Barbeque
Two Tyson Chicken Breasts, two boneless rib shaped pork patties, mashed potatoes, barbeque sauce.

Calories:.........1140
Fat:............... 46g (70%)
...Sat. Fat:..... 17g (84%)
Cholesterol:.. 190mg (64%)
Sodium: .........2940mg (123%)
Carbs: ...........127g (42%)
...Fiber: ..........6g (23%)
...Sugars:.......80g
Protein:..........55g

mmmmm

I don't usually eat this one all the time, but I do usually after doing squats.

Actually, I've never been able to finish it all in one sitting before. I usually leave one pork patty for the next day, along with a little bit of mashed potatoes.

I don't mind the 46g of fat. The 17g of sat. fat isn't that great, however, but I haven't eaten that much today so I don't mind.
The sodium is a bit high, but I drink a lot of water.
Carbs, it's fine.
Protein: 55g is good for one meal.

--This next section is for hungry college students without a lot of money--

What's the best part? The WalMart in my college town sells these for $3.78. In grocery stores it's like $5.50. The normal Hungry Man dinners at my WalMart are $2.50, and like $4 or something at grocery stores. The normal Hungry Man dinners are a better value (calories per dollar), but I like this dinner so I buy it. You can get around 800 calories for $2.50 with a normal Hungry Man. And that's not all fat, either. Lots of protein and carbs, too. And the normal ones come with vegetables. I recommend Hungry Man dinners to college students.

Update: I just finished it for the first time in one sitting. it took like 40 minutes, tho! My sixpack is still smiling.

I am proud of myself. And I'm full

Holy crap that's a lot of sodium!

[yenhoi]

I second Ironfist.

I have finished them in one sitting before, but I think Im a bigger guy then you are.

They also sell bags of soy beans in albertsons and ralleys and other market stores. Thats like 200g protein for like 1$. Economy!

Want to talk about Protein Economy? 1 sitting at an all you can eat sushi bar will beat out anything.

[Qi dup]

How about an all you could eat steak dinner? Soy?

[IronFist]

I try not to eat red meat, but, steak does taste good.

IronFist, do you avoid lean red meat? If so, why?

[yenhoi]

I avoid red meat as well. Maybe a little bit each week because of social and family crap.

Whats the benefit of lean red meat, just no fat? Regardless of what the real difference is Im sure the body still processes it just the same. (Slowly and ineffeciently, plus some other stuff that ironfist would probably love to explain.)

Red meat can be contaminated,fat,toxic hormones including in some cases,hard to digest,"confusing" etc.
Not many reasons there to use it when you can as well use something else,that´s just me-along with vegetarians.

[Qi dup]

you say hormones like its a bad thing!
