  • Help needed before dinner

    Hi Guys

    I've posted another question on OWL but would like to know...

    Is it better to:

    a) eat two home made burgers (medium size - quarter pound lean steak mince in total) to ensure protein percentage is higher or
    b) eat one burger which is probably enough for my appertite but the percentage for protein will be a bit low - BUT the calories will be lower at the end of the day.

    If I go for a) my percentages will be f62%, p22%, c7% cals 1773
    If I go for b) my percentages will be f59%, p23%, c8% cals 1616 (better)

    How important are the percentages?

    Thanks in advance

    Zx

    Check your thread in the OWL forum first, before you decide to do anything about your protein intake.

      Thanks Not2Late - when I was going through my fitday for you, I realised I had an extra tbsp oil so have amended the figures according above. x
