Danny,
I always had my diet written by a nutritionist(not a dietician). The only difference I find between the 2 is a Nutritionist writes a balanced meal plan taking the food pyramid into consideration and total calories amounting to 2000-2200. Dieticians tell you to restrict certain foods depending upon your goals. I may be wrong at the nomenclature but this is my understanding.
So my diet plan for a long time looked like what Adam suggested with little difference like:
1. Complex carb in every meal(Wheat bread, oatmeal etc 3 times a day) with veggies, beans, meat
2. Cheese(We call paneer) in one meal.
But I had no luck loosing the last 4 pounds following this meal plan. So I switched to low carb diet about 5 months back. And then Adam's post came along which validated the low carb diet I was following was almost correct. I do weights Monday, Wednesday, Friday and if the ONLY treadmill in the Gym is working then HIIT on Tuesday and Thursday. I have seen awesome results with this exercise cum meal plan. I am quite satisfied. Not that I want to change any of what I am doing right now, I got interested after reading the articles I mentioned.
Cool Combos... well share 'em!!
