basically high proteins and a decent amount of carbs (i've actually cut some carbs to cut the abs)

Meal 1: Protein Shake (2 scoops), 1 banana
Meal 2: 2 cups FF or lowfat cottage cheese w/ apple sauce, 1 high fiber oatmeal bar
Meal 3: 6-8oz chicken breast with 2 cups brown rice w/ less sodium soy sauce.
Meal 4: (2) 1/4 cups of tuna w/ multigrain crackers - may add several slices of whole wheat bread.
Meal 5: Pre-workout - (1 scoop) Protein Shake w/ 1 apple
Meal 6: Post-Workout - Peanut butter / banana shake. Which includes little more than half of a banana, 2-3 tablespoons of FF yogurt, 1 tablespoon of peanut butter, 1 cup ice, 3oz. of water.

not bad at all. I use to make turkey wraps, they were awesome until i got burnt out. How does your workout go, you make them up yourself, magazines, trainers, etc.

My problem is my diet, I dont eat enough and when I do, I eat the wrong foods. I dont even know where to begin with my diet, and I like all kinds of foods. I think I will at least try and eat breakfast on a daily basis.

yeah, breakfast is the most important meal of the day, which i'm sure you've heard that one plenty of times. Have you looked on bodybuilding.com?

I know, i rest about 7-8x thoughout the entire workout. Which is a lot less for when i started it about 2 weeks ago. I'm determined to go all the way through it...may take a while tho...:rock:

i am. They are lot stronger and able to last through the first couple of exercises of the 'Ab RipperX' (P90X's name for their ab workout). But visible wise, a little, not alot, so that will take more time. Also the workout helps strengthen my hip flexors, which i'm really weak on.
