KeymasterAs long as it is within 5g above or below the recommended amounts you are ok. This is fine. 🙂
Nicole
KeymasterI would eat all 5 of the meals in order and then follow your training with your post workout shake.
Nicole
KeymasterIf you train after meal 4, then post workout have the shake and 2-3hrs after that have meal 5.
Nicole
KeymasterYes that is fine 🙂
Nicole
KeymasterEither way is fine but I typically use the food scale since it is much more accurate.

KeymasterEmail [email protected] and Amanda will be able to forward it on. Hopefully it hasn’t gone out already!

KeymasterHi Krystal,
I am not sure what you are asking. Are you working out after meal 1? I recommend having only two protein shake per day and replacing eggs in meal 1 with another lean source of protein.Nicole
KeymasterYep! Everything you eat or drink is included in the daily macros.
Nicole
KeymasterJody,
Yes you can make substitutions as long as the macros are the same.Nicole
KeymasterI recommend choosing the meal plan that corresponds with your height.
Nicole
KeymasterInput the grams and focus on that. Yes when you do not weight train, your calories will be less.
Nicole
KeymasterThe diet does not change every day unless you choose to use the list of foods and make even exchanges.
There is no need to change the diet that often. The calories are putting you at a deficit so if you follow the meal plan daily and stay consistent you will see changes.Nicole
Keymasterhi Diana
Choose the meal plan according to your height 🙂Nicole
KeymasterHi Beverly,
I am not sure I understand your question. I would try to do your best to get all workouts in- cardio and strength. Do not cram more than what is recommended in one day. For example I would not do 3 or 4 workouts in one day to make up a day missed.Nicole
KeymasterYou absolutely can follow the pyramid method for all exercises.

KeymasterHi Joey,
I would eat meal 1 before you weight train. If you are just doing cardio, have a scoop of BCAAs and then eat meal 1 after. If you are doing both at the same time: eat meal 1, weight train, cardio and then have your post workout shake. Always do weights first before cardio so you have energy to lift 🙂Nicole
KeymasterHi Kathy,
I would eat meal 1 before you workout. Weight train first and then do cardio. After cardio have your post workout shake 🙂Nicole
KeymasterEggs can be a protein replacement. No problem!
Banana can be replaced with any fruit. It is great for post workout because it is higher glycemic and a good source of potassium which can help with muscle soreness 🙂 I recommend if you are trying to lose weight, to keep fruit to a minimum- 1-2 servings daily.

KeymasterHi Sunny,
If you add additional vegetables they absolutely count in your total macros. To me all calories should be counted.Nicole
KeymasterThe meals throughout the day should be eaten every 2-3 hrs. So your last meal time may vary depending on what time you wake up.
Nicole
KeymasterYep! Jennifer you are correct. The post workout meal is included in the total macros for the day and can be moved around depending on what time you train.
Nicole
KeymasterAs little as possible. Try to keep it under 40g per day including fruit.
Nicole
KeymasterMeasure potatoes cooked 🙂
Nicole
KeymasterIf you are doing weights in the morning, I would eat prior to training. If you are doing cardio only, I would eat meal one after. If you are doing both in the morning, eat meal one and then do your weight training workout and then cardio. Wait 30min-1hr and have your post workout shake.

KeymasterHi Linda,
Eggs can be replaced with any of the lean protein sources on the grocery list…. chicken, fish, turkey etc.
Avocado can also be replaced with any of the fat sources on the food list… nuts, oils, etc
Just make sure you measure it out so that the macros are the same. -
