So guys i am on 40/40/20 Diet on 1600cal as sugested by DAN

so i eat 160carbs 160protiens & 35fat

I eat A LOT OF CHICKEN, almost half a kg BONELESS a day, so it ocvers protien and fat...

but for carbs i only eat ROTI's wich with chicken cover up till 80gm

wich is almost 1200-1300 cal at this point

so i was wonderin that should i eat 100gm(uncooked) of rice? wich consist 80gm of carbs?

will it be good? considering that i want to get muscles and lose fat and also do strength trainin?

as i hav really less options for carbs...

    What about vegetables and fruit?

    Rice is fine but it shouldn't be making up all of your carb intake.

    seriously, some vegetables and fruit are important

    It's also difficult to hit all of our micronutrients when we put all our eggs in 1 basket.

    I've just had a look at your diary. Are you going to eat like that for the rest of your life? get some variety in. get some fruit and vegetables into your diet.

    There was a time when he gave out very good advice and many people followed his road map. Unfortunately, then something changed.

    You might want to revisit your maths there too ....

    at 40/40/20 .... if fat is 35g, then C and P would be 70g

    or are you eating 160/160/80 ??

    Percentages and they are of total calories, so yea, 160/160/80 doesn't work . . .
