Re: Lets all Diet & get in shape

victory- Yeah, the small meals *do* simply make more sense in every way. After eating that way for years I'm pretty used to it (even if I so still complain about the hassle), but it's sure hard to convince others do go that route.

I admit I when people are "too busy" to do what's right with regard to diet and fitness. When I hear "it's easy for *you* to do that, but I don't have that much time" I think "yeah, right...if you had an extra hour in every day I suppose you'd be at the squat rack right now"

You and I'll have to agree to disagree on the amount of protein though..again, I tracked my intake very closely while getting body-comped weekly; even with the frequent meals, I simply need more than that. Your recommendation for me at that time would've been ~13.5 grams at each of eight meals, and I couldn't *maintain* max size at ~15 grams, simply didn't work. Might sound improbable, but I'm talking carefully monitored, first-hand experience For the past few years (only eating 5-6 times a day), I've gone with ~40 grams/meal and yeah, I know I'm wasting some of that but it comes down to what works OK for me year after year and I'm not gonna argue with long-term success. Anyhow, my MRPS taste best when I mix 'em the way I do, and my real-food meals are usually pretty big
