NOTES:

• While the foods above contain trace amounts of other macronutrients in them (for example, skinless chicken breasts contain 2.5 to 5 grams of fat), for the purposes of our calculations we will assume that these foods contain only the macronutrient under which they are listed.
• If you choose to include
skim milk
in your diet, remember that it not only has protein (8-9 grams for every 8 ounces of milk) but also simple carbs (12-13 grams for every 8 ounces of milk). Therefore, count milk as both. Note that since the carbs in milk are simple carbs, this food item ideally should only be used in the post workout meal. However, if due to schedule you need to include more protein shakes throughout the day, and the carbs that you will rely on are those found in skim milk, ensure that you add a teaspoon of flaxseed oil to it as the oil will slow down the release of the simple carbs into the blood stream. Women interested in competing should however eliminate any dairy products from the diet as these products tend to make you retain water and the lactose in them makes it harder to get to the desired low body fat percentage required for the contest.
• If you use
flaxseed oil
as your Essential Fatty Acids supplement, remember to count these as fat grams. Each teaspoon contains approximately 5 grams of good fats.
• If you use
fish oil
capsules as your Essential Fatty Acids supplement, count each capsule as 1 gram of good fat.
• Remember that carbohydrates have 4 calories per gram. Therefore, a 6-ounce banana has 27 grams of carbs × 4 = 108 calories.
• Remember that protein has 4 calories per gram. Therefore, a 3.5-ounce chicken breast has 35 grams of protein × 4 = 140 calories.
• Remember that fat has 9 calories per gram. Therefore, a teaspoon of flaxseed oil has 5 grams of fat × 9 = 45 calories.
