It works out to be around 600 calories carbs and 600 calories protein. The Tesco website I found is either great or has no info.
Yeah, I thought you remember saying that, just wasnt sure.
Whats those in grams of protein and carbs?

Ive a feeling your carb amounts in g are going to be fairly high (compared to what they should be in P2).

I measured it off the calorie intake suggested rather than the grams.

I'm all for changing things, this is why I've posted it on here. Basically I'm planning on getting a food plan sorted for a 7 day period.

What whey protein you using?
I use the myprotein casein. Know people find this hard to mix but I use an electric hand blender and no real problems for me

awesome,
I assume you know if you put www.bulkpowders.co.uk into the price matcher the plain flavour is even cheaper.
You have probably already taken notice of this but 30g of whey isn't 30g of protein. it equatates to about 26-27 with the impact. Not trying offend ny pointing out the obvious just thought would make sure.
Have you got scales to weigh out the amounts?

Yeah I put bulkpowders in thanks 
30g of whey is 24.6g of protein and 118 calories. No offence taken here, I was quickly adding things up for Cosmo before. I'm always open to costructive input.
We have scales to measure amounts of stuff, I have the scoops from myprotein too.

for those figures think you are looking at impact whey rather than impact whey isolate. the isolate has a higher protein content
I bought a set of digi scales. Massive help when weighing. Tend to only weight when cutting. Bulk I know roughly what i should be having then add a bit more

Yeah sorry I'm using the Impact Whey protein rather than the isolate, well spotted.
Will edit my older post.

Tim for something before bed i'e been having a shake with cottage cheese and peanut butter in it
2 heaped teaspoons of peanut butter, maybe 3,
2 heaped tablespoons of cottage cheese, asda good for you stuff
a few ice cubes, half a pint ish of water, maybe a little less
With a phd diet whey in chocolate orange flavour, just one scoop, 25grams i think it is
Goes down really well, i'm not the biggest fan of cottage cheese but that helped alot
Found the shake pretty damn nice tbh

Whats the theory behind the ice? flavour or practical use?
Have read that cold water helps burn calories getting the water up to body temp.

TBH i don't really know the theory, all i know is it makes it colder and imo tastes nicer when it's cold

That's a good idea, anything to make cottage cheese go down easier.

Nah didnt give me it, but can see why it might as like you said it is fizzy when you make it.
Im on my rest week of Phase 2, but going to throw in the 3 resistant work outs still (so not really have a rest week, not that it is a rest anyway).
Have no idea if Ive gained any size in this phase, I certainly feel like I have a bit and know Im lifting a lot more now than the first week on Phase 2 (and a lot more than Phase 1).
Ive also lost something like 18-20lbs now (was 18 yesterday, was 20 a few days before that) - although still cant shift the last of my beer belly

nice one mate...
look forward to seeing phase 2 pics...
- not sure if its a good thing going too over the top on the rest week ... the first phase I completed I didn't think i'd gained that much, had the rest week and doing the other things like core synergistics or something, combined with resting must of had an effect as i saw great gains that week.

Its not that I dont think Ive gained much so dont want to do the rest week, its just I didnt see the point of it the first time round. My muscles really arent feeling it after about 2 days, so cant see what a week of not doing any of those parts is going to do.
If I feel fucked come the end of this week then I'll just do the rest then - doubt I will though and will just crack on with Phase 3.
