I'd like to pick up cooking and I've been weightlifting for about a year. I think like a lot of people, food is amazing. I'm 5'7" and 170 pounds...most of it is muscle. So where can I find recipes that are aimed more for the bodybuilder types? I'm not and don't want to be, but I'd like to thin out a bit and pick up some good cooking on the way.

I think that for anyone who is trying to eat healthier, the magazine Cooking Light has great recipes. They are not diet foods they are recipes that include healthy nutritious dishes. Their recipes are at this link. http://www.myrecipes.com/recipes/ For recipes just for body building try http://www.building-muscle101.com/body-building-recipes.html#Link1 http://www.beginner-bodybuilding.com/Bodybuilding-Recipes.html http://bodybuilding.about.com/cs/r.htm I hope you find some you like!

I don't know about the whole body builder thing but you have to want to eat healthy food. Because my mum has has cancer she eats really healthy and doesn't eat any dairy and very little meat. Meat is okay just it proportion. Most things are needed in proportion. Drinking: 8 cups of water i know sounds ott but if you do exercise you're bound to drink more than 6. Beer and wine, i'm pretty sure one a day is okay, but i don't drink so you know. Please! Only drink soft drinks OCCASIONALLY they are sugar!! You need to have quite a few servings of veggies and fruit daily. Also, with salads try to be inventive!! It's no wonder a lot of people dislike salads when all they have is a whole lotta lettuce, cheese and a few cherry tomatoes. In your salads put in caspsicum, (really yummy) tomatoes, lettuce, sprouts (now you can grow your own sprouts at home like we do, and they taste yummy). But there are many different salads out there so go try some and put in different food. Sometimes in our salads there's also orange or almonds and the list goes on. Also a nice dressing is garlic, olive oil and pesto. Simple but really yummy. Other than salads because i don't like them hugely there's plenty of other ways to have your fruit and veggies. For snacks have apples, oranges, mandarins, kiwi fruit, a handfull of almonds or other nuts(good protein), a banana, grapes--perfect snack options. Of course many veggies in my daily diet are had with dinner. Breakky: Cereal is the best option, to be inventive you can put in fruit. Toast is okay, just even it out with some fruit. I have days where i have egg,bacon, sometimes fryed mash (sooooo good!!) baked beans, mushrooms--are soo yummy, and a fried tomato. With freshly squeezed orange juice. Juices: Simply buy your own juicer and fresh, natural juices where you know whats in them!! Hope all of this info helps :)
