if control is suggesting 3 cans of tuna plus 50 grams of whey he doesn't know as much as you give him credit for. lol

NO NO NO, he didn't suggest anything like that....i was one day sitting and thinking about how to jack up my protein and that's what i came up with, lol

Stop making control look bad, he never told me to blend my meals up. I started doing that myself.

Next time DNA, grab some suggestions from the board before you decide to eat all your meals in one sitting :P You're easy to pick on - it's all in good fun. ;)

3 cans tuna fish, 50g whey protein, 1 banana, few strawberry's, few grapes, 1 tablespoon of EVOO

I don't make this shake that often, maybe once or twice a week

Ahahahahahaha - I digress....

I just have a hard time believing solid meals are really that much better.I was always told that , but i cant find a convincing argument. The reason solid meals fill you up longer is because your body is still burning energy trying to digest what you have just eaten. Your body doesnt have to work as hard to break it down with a shake. I cant see how a solid meal with the exact same ingredients can be superior to a shake which will break down faster and be absorbed faster.

That's the whole point bro - you want your body to use energy digesting food - this is the mechanism that boosts your metabolism and facilitates lean muscle mass/fat loss - that alone is what makes whole food meals superior to shakes IMO...

[coffee-guy]

you are forgetting the fact that our bodies are designed to break down foods. when you take that part away there is definitely a difference. i know exactly what fog is saying. i still use shakes in my meal plan but there is certainly a difference in the way i feel after a shake with oatmeal, PB, etc.. the stomach fills up and you feel slightly bloated but somehow not as satisfied or full compared to a whole food meal.

Which is where I take the route that I *think* the GI of certain foods change based upon the consistency in which they're eaten/digested...

Just like you preach that sugars kill the goals of your diet (because you want consistent blood sugar levels) the same holds true for the GI indexes of what you eat....
