Hello everyone! My name is Tyler Buck, and as the starting post for my new blog, tbnutrition, I have decided to post my current macronutrients and food patterns throughout each and every day. With it being the start of summer just before my senior year, I haven’t necessarily been tracking my nutrition as good as I should be. Today, I started to strictly watch my calories and track my marcronutrients, because as you may or may not know, tracking your macronutrients and calories are the best ways to see exactly what you are eating, and how much you are eating. I’m not going to go through exactly everything that I ate today, however, I will name a few of my favorites.
Protein:
By far, my largest consumption of protein comes from chicken. Chicken is low in fat and high in protein, making it a very good source of protein. Some of my other favorites consist of Greek yogurt, eggs, beef, pork, protein bars, and whey protein powder.
Carbohydrates:
Personally, I have always been kind of all over the place when it comes to carbs, just because… who doesn’t love carbs. My personal favorites consist of rice, potatoes, whole grain bread, whole grain cereal, and granola. Even if you don’t think you need carbs and can force them out of your body completely, you need them. When I was younger I almost completely eliminated my consumption of carbs, and while I did lose a ton of weight, I was always super tired and moody.
Fats:
Honestly, I don’t really have a favorite kind of fat. When I track all of my food throughout the day, I always end up right at or at the very least close to my assigned grams for the day.
Currently, my macronutients are sitting at a good 153g of Protein, 175g of Carbs, and 49g of Fat. At the moment I am shredding to lose fat and get down to a proper physique for the summer.
I have many good ideas for this website, so I hope you give me a follow to see more. Also, please send in any idea or suggestion for topics to talk about, I would really appreciate it!
