What foods for a meal plan?

TheGame46 · 09-11-2006, 07:50 PM

Looking for a little help from everyone.
I need a list of foods that you all eat or like to eat that if you had to write yourself a meal plan you would include. If you know the nutritional facts of GI that’s awesome but if not its ok I’ll find it.

So you guys tell me what food exactly you would like to have on a meal plan.

Thanks.

GI, for whole foods, is extremely random and changes greatly with a number of variables. The list and link above are great.

95% of my carbs come from oats, rice, fruit and barilla plus
My protein comes from chicken, turkey, fish, beef, deer, dairy
My fats come from nuts, oils and animal.

That's all there is to it. The only foods off limits are processed sugars, processed flour and trans fats.
