Default Thanks for the tips!

I guess I'll just have to see how it goes. Getting up early enough to do a 45min workout before work will really be a challenge, but I guess I can try it by the book at first and modify it if need be. I checked out the BFL website. There wasn't much info about the diet (and that website is so poorly organized!), but I did find a calorie calculator. For my weight and goals it said to have 150g protein, 150g carbs and 33g fat. That's a little more protein and carbs and a LOT less fat than I'm eating now. In fact, I think I can easily eat 33g fat in one meal. So I think to start out I'll try to cut back on fat, especially saturated fat. Splitting 33g of fat over 6 meals gives me nightmares of my old low-fat days! But eating 30g carbs and protein for each meal and 20g carbs and protein for each snack sound pretty close to Schwartzbein. I'm just afraid if I add too much fat that with that level of carbs that I will gain weight.
