Diet Food: Dan’s Big Bowl of Mush


Diet Food: Dan’s Big Bowl of Mush

Before we talk about “diet food’, if there is such a thing, lets talk about the “secret” to weight loss.
There is no secret!
Simply create a calorie deficit through exercise and eating less.

How do you eat less?diet food

By making your food as “filling” as possible so you aren’t tempted to eat more.

In this video I used the following ingredients:
Ingredients
Whey Protein – 1 scoop
Muesli – 50g
Strawberries – 300g
Almonds – 18g
Cinnamon – 1 tsp
Xanthan Gum – 1 tsp
Add water, mix (or blend), put in the fridge to set, and enjoy!

The take home message, if you are trying to lose weight, is to try and make your food as “bulky” and “filling” as possible.  This is whilst ensuring the food is still lower in calories, of course.  There really aren’t such a thing as “diet foods”.  But foods that will help when losing weight, will usually be those high in fibre.  This is why I have used strawberries, muesli and almonds for this recipe.
Additionally, lean protein is often filling and lower in calories!  As are cruciferous vegetables and fruit (eaten whole, not blended or juiced of course!)

Training during Ramadan

https://howistayfit.com/training/training-during-ramadan/ Training during Ramadan   admin   07/05/2019 When you cannot eat or drink for 16 hours or so each day, what do you do?! Training during Ramadan? A question I get asked regularly each year, is how to best eat and train during the month of Ramadan. Ramadan is a holy month for Muslims around the world, for it is within this month that the Muslim holy book, the Qur’an, was revealed to the Prophet Muhammed.  A special requirement for this month is that all Muslims who are able to, are required to fast every day from sunrise to sunset, abstaining from all eating or drinking, and not even water is allowed. Harder than Intermittent Fasting Clearly this is very different from the Intermittent Fasting (IF) protocols that are popular at the moment. At least with IF you still drink fluids whilst fasting. But for Ramadan, this is not the case! To make matters even more difficult, the Islamic calendar is ba...

Another Supplement That Works! My “A-Bolic4” Review

https://howistayfit.com/training/abolic4/ Another Supplement That Works! My “A-Bolic4” Review   admin   28/02/2019 As you probably already know, I am generally not a big fan of nutritional supplements.  The reason being, is that most of the time I don’t notice any results that warrant spending money on them. Apart from Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA), I usually just stick to the few basics like whey protein, creatine, omega-3 fish oil, and multi-vitamins. However, I am quite excited by the results of a new supplement that I have been experimenting with: A-Bolic4 A-Bolic4 The product I have been using is called A-Bolic4.  It is made by an American company called The Lab, and it is marketed as an “anabolic growth supplement”.  They claim that it “supports anabolic growth, increased metabolism, cellular integrity, and male sexual health”. My Experience Before I talk more about the supplement, and what’s in it, let me talk about my res...

Post Workout Protein and the Anabolic Window

https://howistayfit.com/diet/post-workout-protein/ Post Workout Protein and the Anabolic Window   admin   13/04/2019 I remember it so well. Every time I would pack my gym bag before heading off for a workout, I would always be sure to include my post workout protein shake.  It would be ready mixed in my shaker bottle, ready to be slammed back as soon as I finished the session.  And on the odd occasion when I forgot to pack my protein shake, I would be horrified! I would hurry home as fast as I could, to quickly get my protein down as fast as possible.  My eyes would be on my watch, as I raced the clock to consume my post workout protein shake within 45 minutes of finishing my workout.  Because if I didn’t get my protein in time, that gruelling workout I had just put myself through would be a total waste.  It would result in no muscle gain if I didn’t have protein within the 45-minute post workout anabolic window!...
