GOOD DIET FOR A BUSY LIFESTYLE

Hey everyone, just joined today, and am already looking for some advice with regards to dieting.
I am a full time student, and have a job, and barely have time to eat three meals a day as it is. I train 6 days a week at the gym, and know I need proper nutrition to continue to see gains. Im currently taking EAS Whey protein twice a day, but i was told an actual meal supplement might be better. Does anyone have any recommendations for some quick muscle building meals, or any advice for meal supplements? Thanks.

Tuna packets
Almonds or mixed nuts
Whey and oats in a ziplock baggy
Fruit
Little baby carrots
Whole wheat chicken sandwiches
PB sandwiches

RTD's if you can afford them or MRP's
Hope this helps

a couple of great meal replacements are Optimum Nutrition's Whey Gold Meal or MHP's Macrobolic MRP. both are high in protein and carbs along with some healthy fats and can help you with getting in your calories and meals.

or just simply make your meals the night before and pack them in a tupperware and put them in the refrigerator for the next day. try and consume slow digesting carbs such as brown rice, whole grains, and oatmeal throughout the day except for post workout, which should be followed by a fast digesting carb source.

feel free to ask anymore questions. me and my Ripped Academy bros will be more than happy to help you out :)

u gotta perpare the night before. Dry oat meal put in tupperware, make chicken for the week in one night. Tuna packs like sixpack said A scoop of whey in a pack of fat free sugar free instant pudding is a delicious protein snack you can make it with cold water. Microwave potatoes or sweet potatoes ahead of time. individual cottage cheese and yogurt cups. Tupperware and a cooler are your best new friends!

couldn't of said it better bloodgroove my brother...I am on here now while my rice is cook'n. I pack all of my meals the night before and put them in single serving tupperware bowls. Tomorrow is roundsteak, rice and greenbeans.....chicken, rice and greenbeans, and canned salmon rice n green beans....Not to mention my post workout shake allready to go in a shaker bottle, and my chicken set'n out for tomorrow night defrost'n for when I get home from work.

I usually prepare rice,chicken on weekeneds then during the week I can just pack tupperware. A couple scoops of 100% whey+dry oats and almonds is very easy to throw in a baggy :)Prepare ahead of time is key.

i heard that chicken after 3 days should no longer be consumed...wut do u think?

I give chicken about 4-5 days, I keep it tight in tupperware , I would prob say 4 days

u Can freeze rice too. It keeps really well. Hey Mikey do you like it? (just teasing it's an old folks commercial)lol

Get about 6 ziploc bags & add some nuts, fruits, sandwich or whatever you like so you can snack on. You'll be ok.

Loyalt it depends how you cook the meat. I have boiled, grilled stewed all my meats before and each cooking method lasted differently. :)

The longest that stayed FRESH was grilled.

I only cook 3 times a week LOL. I cook chicken, turkey and put it ziplock bags, i steam my veggies slightly and put them in tupperware.

I got 6 of those TV dinner style type trays and pre-make my meals first thing in the morning or before bed time.

I am addicted to those trays hehehe.
