I've had a quick flick through but it's basically a low carb diet which suggests you have 1 type of protein (fish, meat, eggs, w/e) with 2 x veg for every meal.
I don't follow it, I mainly stick to the staple carbs + protein (chicken and rice, fish and rice, chicken and sweet potato, frittata type meals with minced beef/cheese/potato) Yep that first one sounds closely to what I was doing, as for the latter it sounds much more appetizing I'll definitely try it when I go full on bulk!

rest of the day I make a bowl with rice OR pasta OR potato + chicken AND some fish + veggies (mainly and almost always broccolli). I eat from this bowl from noon till the end of the day(empty by late evening), approx every 2 hours. The breakfast and bowl don't fill 100% of my calories because I like to save some space for fruit
oh I like that plan! Would of never thought to do that tbh, the one bowl all day thing. I've been doing small handfuls of things like nuts, mini bell peppers, and spinach, for those 2 hr intervals, definitely giving the bowl thing a shot!
Glad I'm not the only one who likes fruit, I feel like it was one of the main reasons I stayed at my plateau, in that, I overate my allowance in them. With that said, I think that's why everyone looks at carbs so badly, some people get cravings when they eat them and don't feel full. Kid you not, when I heard Chris from Family Guy say, "no one ever taught me about carbs" it struck my curiosity, then after looking into it and trying it I saw results was astounded. Although, that's was only for BF%, my strength increase could have been a lot more, I think, if I did eat more of them.
Anyways, thanks ya'll, I'm feeling a lot more confident in topping my previous experience!
