Karl78 wouldnt that be alot of calories if your having it 3 times a day.
Then again of corse it depends on what ur doing, are u cutting or bulking?
Coz if ur having it 3 times a day i am thinking of instead of waiting all day till tomorrow when i can have some more i can get home from skool and have it...

I'm an advocate of avoiding carbs late in the day. after 5pm for me it's protein and fats, with carbs only coming from fiber and veggies.

150 calories per serving x 3 = 450 = not a lot.
I happen to be eating 3000 cals a day now but when I was cutting at 2200 a day I still had the same amount. Oatmeal is argueably the number one complex carb in the bodybuilding/fitness world. But as I'm sure you've heard - not that packaged *****.

Holy carp. You gentlemen eat 3000 calories? Whoa, I eat like,....2 times less than that.... -_-''

You must all work out around 2 or 3 hours every day with resting days or something.

Nope, we just eat proper. 3000 was his bulking diet, 2,200 cals was his cutting diet.

Nobody I believe your a male if I remember correctly, 1800 cals a day should be your absolute minimum. 2 times less than 3000 is less than 1500 = not good.

$h!t guys u r making me feel bad, u r saying that u eat 2200 at cutting! bloody hell i eat 1200 sometimes 1100, i try and eat more but i just cant find the food or the time to eat. The only way i can think of eating more is junk... Which is totally out of my diet.

And the prob is when i eat more calories i feel bad or something and if i do that a few days in a row i feel like im gaining weight

Keep in mind im 5'3, weight 107 lbs and am 14. Anway ill try.

Yes, but I really am annoyed by this stupid stomach fat. I want to lose it. And in regards to the amount I eat, I always try my best to eat about 1,800, but I get less because I am worried if I go over my entire world will come crashing down.

Thats a common worry nobody but remember, our goal here is to increase our metabolism and become fat burning machines. The way we do that is by eating, stoking the furnace some here like to call it. I am very strict with my diet and even at 3000 cals a day I am gaining very slowly, I am still burning most of it up.

I also want a "straigh stomach" so to speak. I think I heard somewhere that eating a whole lot of food like, expands the stomach, and constantly eating this amount can keep the stomach large. Eating smaller amounts can make the stomach smaller, and get that "tight" stomach.

Im not really sure if this is right, I just heard it somewhere. So, in order to correspond to this, it is almost impossible to eat a whole lot of food. This is what I had today, if it will be an indicator;
=========================
Breakfast- 2 instant oatmeal pouches, with milk. 2 whole boiled eggs. 1/2 piece of bread

Snack 1; 1 apple

Lunch;

1 sandwich (black forest ham, cottage cheese, cheese ( my mother bought the wrong bread, and ran out of materials to put in it... -_-'' As a result, it was rather small, even for my standards)

500ml 1% milk

Snack 2; Apple, pear

Dinner; 2 talipa fish fallets, 1 cup brocolli, 1 cup peas with little bits of potatoes and carrots

-=============

That's about it. Any good?

Oh, and can someone answer my darn question on the idea that is it okay to eat oatmeal with milk, but withough heating it? Kinda like normal cereal in a sense?

i think its your intestines you are worried about making you look large. i could be wrong , your stomack is in the epigastric region of your torso(under your ribs). my guess is that a good diet with enough fiber etc. would not sit in your digestive tract but be used by your bod and the waste disposed of faster than not so healthy foods. i don't know but i think that would be how it works. keep your bod healthy as a whole, i'm sure the guys in the forum know much more than i do so hopefully they will correct me if i'm wrong and add in better info.

protein at every meal, at least 20g per meal. you seem to only ingest protein 3 times a day, and it looks like you're trying to 'load up' on it then...no good. need a steady flow of protein all day long.

And its' fine to eat your oatmeal un-cooked, with milk. Keep in mind that instant oatmeal cooks up into paste, while old-fashioned oats have a much tastier consistency.

I don't really understand how I can eat protein every single time I eat... -_-''

I get about 20g~ in the morning.
I get about... 20g lunch
And THIS dinner I had, I probably got in about... 45g.

using myself as an example here is my protein serving from each meal...
#1 - 7 egg whites, 1 whole egg
#2 - whey shake
#3 - grilled chicken breast
#4 - grilled chicken breast
#5 - whey shake
#6 - cottage cheese
