I think your frequency of eating is awesome. I like the mix of carbs and protein. However, I don't see any good fats with each meal. Fish oil, Olive oil, nuts ect...

Thanks for the feedback.

Fish oil is very expensive, and i can barely afford the fundamentals. and even when i do have the extra money, i get the supplements i need most (whey, creatine, tribulus, zma).

Olive oil, i guess i could replace the oil i use now(sunflower oil) to cook my meat with?

I eat some peanutbutter in the morning (contains nuts & nutoil right?)

What do you think?

I think the PB in the morning is a good idea. Nuts are a natural source for energy. For fish oil, how expensive is whole fish in Holland? I know what it's like to be know on a tight budget. Maybe that could be a possibility, or if you like fishing, it could be pretty much free, except for permits or whatever may be required to fish there.

Use natural peanut butter. Normal peanut butter is full of saturated fat. Fish oil isn't very expensive. Do you really need the tribulus and zma? Seems to me like you would be much better off replacing those with fish oil.

I think more High GI carbs post workout is a good idea too, that and maybe some good fats like others suggested.

Natural PB? Is that something like homemade, or organic? I've thought about making my own.

i get smuckers...and it just says "natural" on the label...it doesn't have the shitty oil added in....the partially hydrogenated...something or other. the only ingredients are peanuts and salt.

Natural peanut butter is just peanut butter without the added hydrogenated fat added to keep it bound. So that the oils don't separate from the solid.

I know I'm not much for maintaining the status quo, lol and I'm going to continue that trend for peanut butter. Quite frankly all this natural versus regular pb, imo, has been a big huge mountain made out of a mole hill.

There is not that much difference in the fat content of your everyday jar of pb (like Jiff) and a "natural" version. I think people are acting like they had huge gobs of hydrogenated fats to regular peanut butter but they don't. It's like a drop, lol. It doesn't take much and a serving of regular peanut butter contains zero grams of trans fat. By federal law that means that it has to contain less that .5 grams per serving and in fact most ALL peanut butter contains much less trans fat than that. More like .001 to .003 grams. The hydrogenated oils also act as a preservative which significantly extends the shelf life.

Peanuts are really high in monounsaturated fats so they don't go bad as quickly as all that but natural peanut butter will not last as long as regular.

Peanut butter has so many solid health benefits that, to me, if eating regular pb means you'll eat more of it (so long as it falls within your needs) then eat regular. If you don't mind the fact that natural peanut butter needs to be stirred and also refrigerated if you arent going to consume it quickly then by all means eat that. I personally find natty pb to be a pain in the butt that is not worth it.

Another option that is on the market is pb which has a little bit of palm oil added as a binder. So absolutely no added hydrogenated oils or their trans fats. This is what I use. Stays completely mixed just like good old regular pb. The fat content is hardly changed at all..or at least not enough to be significant.

Basically, though, what I am saying is pb is good food period, imo. Eat the kind you like. I get the Skippy natural which has a bit of palm oil. Tastes awesome. No mixing. Good healthy fats. Always having a good sale on it at my grocery store

Ahh, thanks for clarifying that for the rest of us. I didn't think that they would even add Hydro. oil to the PB.

I think i would cut back on the whey protein a little and savie it for your workouts. Get most of your protein from natural foods. Whey stays in your system for about 30 mins. Casein protein says in your system for about 8-9 hours atleast this is info that i read on bodybuilding.com thats why i'm conidering getting some casein to take only before bed time.

I also agree about the potatoes, switch that out with something else. Also if your having trouble eating that much homemade weight gainer shakes may do the trick.
