I roughly calculated what I eat everyday:


1) Breakfast ~ 8am -> 2 toasts (low carb bread) w/ butter + 1 hardboiled egg + 1 cup of milk tea. Carbs = 9.5, Calories = 450.

2) Lunch ~ 12pm -> 2 1/2 tortillas (low carb) + veggie/meat entre + 1 cup of milk tea. Carbs = about 13 - 15, Calories = 560.

****5pm -- Work out for 20-25 mins*****

3) Dinner ~ 6:30pm -> 2 1/2 tortillas (low carb) + 2 chicken breasts/fish/turkey + small salad. Carbs = about 13.5, Calories = 850.

4) 2nd Dinner ~ 9:30pm -> Salad + 1/2 chicken breast/fish/turkey
Carbs = 2 - 3, Calories = 300.

***** sleep by 1 am ******

I guess taking the max gives me about 41 carbs and 2160 calories. I occasionally munch on raw walnuts or almonds, which add a lot of calories but very few carbs. I drink about 2 - 3 liters of water everyday.

I didn't know we were supposed to also watch the calories. I was mostly looking at carbs and fat grams (each meal has to be < 30g according to Protein Power).

So what do you guys think should be taken out of my diet? I'm constantly hungry - esp after working out!!

Also, I'm curious about LCarnitine and Coenzyme Q10. Do these have any drug interactions? I'm taking these mega vitamins for women which I will stop once I'm out because I'm also taking oral contraceptives. My gyn advised me that mega vitamins + oral contraceptives aren't suitable for a long period of time.
