Here is how to eat and lose weight like a body builder.

Steps

1. To start off, you have to follow the meals exactly, spices can be used but not in extremes. No thick and creamy salad dressings, use salt sparingly, a good alternative is garlic or cayenne pepper. Sugar is something to avoid at all costs, but if you put sugar and cream in your morning coffee, use low fat skimmed milk and Splenda or Splendid.
   
2. You'll need to be eating a meal at every 2-3 hours and if you miss a meal you don't get to make up for it at the next meal. You will be having protein matched with a carb. We use the flaxseed oil capsules(1000mg, can be found at GNC) to curb appetite and trick the body into thinking it's getting enough fat so it will release fat stores and help with overall inflammation of joints. Water is very important not only when dieting but also on a day-to-day basis. Some people are so dehydrated that they confuse it for hunger pains.You'll need to drink at least 4 liters of water a day, more to help with hunger pains if needed. Try to have a glass and a half of water at each meal, this will flush your system and release water storage, not dehydrate you.
   
3. First Meal(breakfast):
   
   • 1-2 scoops of protein in low fat milk or water (easiest morning meal)
     
   • or 3 eggs(2 of them whites only) hard-boiled or fried with no oil and no butter
     
   • or 40 grams of quick oats(i think half a cup or a quarter of a cup)
     
   • and you must take 1000mg flaxseed oil(can be found at GNC)
     
   
   
4. Second Meal(morning snack):
   
   • 1 can tuna or salmon
     
   • or 1-2 scoop protein shake and 2 rice cakes of any kind
     
   • and you must take 1000mg of flaxseed oil
     
   
   
5. Third Meal(lunch):
   
   • 2-6 oz chicken breasts and 2/3 cup of pasta or rice.
     
   • and 1000mg of flaxseed oil
     
   
   
6. Fourth Meal(Afternoon snack):
   
   • 1 can tuna or salmon
     
   • or 4oz of steak
     
   • 1-2 scoop protein shake and 2 rice cakes of any kind
     
   
   
7. Fifth Meal(Supper):
   
   • 8oz steak or equal amount of hamburger or salmon or shrimp(not in butter)
     
   • 1 large salad or large portion of broccoli or cauliflower or both B&C
     
   
   
8. Sixth Meal(Night Snack):
   
   • 1-2 scoops of protein in low fat milk or water (easiest morning meal)
     
   • or 3 eggs(2 of them whites only) hard-boiled or fried with no oil and no butter
     
   • 1000mg of flaxseed oil.
     
   
   
9. As you can see, you won't be starving on this plan. Also notice that life would be easier if you can take protein shakes instead of the meat. Making meals ahead of time for the week will make it easier too... It's summer so it's wise to BBQ your supper or any other meat meals.
   

Tips

• Anywhere where it says in the meal plans, 1 can of tuna or salmon, you can replace that with either 3 turkey niblets (pillers brand, they are cheaper at superstore) or 1 and a half cups of imitation crab meat(remember to check expiration date).
  
• Anywhere where it says anything about eggs, you can have Kraft light Swiss cheese... only eat 3 1/4" cubes.
  
• Take multivitamins for your gender. Take two daily, you can buy GNC brand multivitamins at GNC. Buy flaxseed oil capsules 1000mg at GNC, don't buy the actual oil, it's nasty.
  

Warnings

• Be careful with weight loss, weight loss pills aren't a joke they are serious business and most weight loss pills contain a thermogenic which turns into steroids when in the body, and steroids can lead to serious health problems and even death.
  
• If you have any question go to my talk page or my fan mail page...
  
• If you allergic to milk than the Whey protein shakes that the plan requires may not be good for you, so stick to the eggs or find one with nothing dairy in it.
  
• You absolutely need to cheat on Saturday, because if you don't you won't loose any weight, I know that sounds weird but it's the truth, so eat your cake, have fries, chicken nuggets, blizzards or anything that you miss not being able to eat during the week.
  

Things You'll Need

• The food
  
• The Flaxseed oil capsules
  
• The multivitamins
  
• Protein shake low fat, low carb, with at least 23grams of protein per scoop, sugars low like 3 grams or lower. GNC have samples so takes some home before you buy one, because there are some really gross kinds of protein shakes. it should be whey protein.
