Hey everyone. I'd like body builders to state their height, weight, and ab condition (such as 6 pack, flat, no pack, etc... be creative) and also input their daily diet into this thread. This way we can all learn from each other and potentially try new diets. I hear cottage cheese is great and meat may not be all that good for you on a regular basis (even low fat meat). Is this true? Can you really build muscle with protein sources outside of meat, or does it not matter how you get your protein?

meat is fine. as long as you get a variety of complete proteins you'll be ok.

Thanks for that abear. Tell me how this diet sounds (I am currently 5'10.. 160 lbs with about 8-10% body fat). I am trying to stay lean but gain a few more lbs:
Breakfast (4-5 a.m.): 2 oatmeal packets, protein shake, and 15-20 grapes
440 calories= 29g of protein, 30g of carbs, 5g of fat.
Second Breakfast (7-8 a.m.): 2 oatmeal packets, 6 egg whites and 1 egg whole, 1 whole weat bread
575 calories= 32g of protein, 25g of carbs, 10g of fat
3rd meal (10 a.m.): Chicken breast (4 oz. only), 1 whole wheat bread, and 62 calories worth of carrots or a medium tomato.
340 calories= 28g of protein, 10g of carbs, 2g of fat
4th meal (1 p.m.): Turkey ground (4 oz. only), 1 tablespoon natural peanut butter, and 31 calories worth of carrots or a medium tomato.
310 calories= 29g of protein, 18g of carbs, 10g of fat
5th meal (3:30 p.m.): Cottage cheese 8 oz. worth, 31 calories worth of carrots or a medium tomato (or perhaps 1 cup worth of cucumber), 1 tablespoon natural peanut butter, 1 tbsp. flaxseed oil
400 calories= 21g of protein, 21g of carbs, 17 g of fat
6th meal (5:30-6:00 p.m.): Turkey ground (extra lean), and either carrots, a cucumber, or tomato (maybe add a protein shake here), flaxseed oil (1 tbsp only)
.
345 calories= 44g of protein, 10g of carbs, 9g of fat
TOTAL= 2410 calories.... 183g of protein, 114g of carbs, 53g of fat
52.5% Protein, 32.5% carbs, 15% fat
Any thoughts?
