^^ X2!!

Except....

The refeed pics above are pretty friggin' exciting too! YUM!

[jked4life]

That's some refeed, lol. Love the cooking that's going on in here. I really have to step it up in that department.

My wife usually does all of the cooking but I think I need to shoulder some of the responsibility to create some really cool bbing friendly dishes. We eat pretty good anyways, but I don't think she really appreciates "cooking to hit my macro's"

Those uppity Long Island girls... sheesh.

[Blazed]

YEA BUDDY!

[Blazed]

[J_Bo]

Yes SIREE!

Lookin rock hard, Mister!

[MoEcho]

Nice refeed!! Thats awesome. Is there a reason other than taste that you go with a higher glycemic carb for refeeds?

Also, you cant post pics like that without recipes. Im gonna boycott this thread if this keeps up.

BTW, pics look un-freakin-believable. Legs are dialed, man. Congrats. You have really achieved something that most people could not even imagine doing. Im honestly just pumped up for you, just seeing your pics, and im anxious to see how you do in the worlds. Wish I could be there.

P.S. I did the "taste and spit" thing once during my prep and decided I was heading into "mental case" land.....so im glad to see someone else has tried this!!

I've posted the recipe for the brownies in here.

The oatmeal squats where

1/2c egg whites, 2 scoops van whey, 100g Oats, 1/2c cinnamon apple unsweetened applesauce, cinnamon, pumpkin spice. Pop the globs on a pamed cookie dish and bake till edges turn brown, should be moist in center. They came out bomb. Think it was ~350 degrees 10-15 minutes.
