Here are a few sample diets. The top two diets have worked well for me. I believe that they will be great starter diets for others to use and refine for their own needs.  One little helpful hint:  If you are like me and have trouble eating much food in the morning, substitute the eggs with a whey protein drink.

Looking for something new or different? See the articles for the Anabolic Diet, T-Dawg Diet.  Check out the 40/30/30 Diet and download the 40/30/30 files or ABCDE diet and download the ABCDE files.

The Anabolic Diet
This high fat and protein/low carb diet was designed by the popular Dr. Mauro DiPasquale specifically for natural bodybuilders to gain muscle and lose fat. The concepts may seem strange at first, but it is definitely worth trying. Click on the following links to read the two articles explaining this diet. They are lengthy, so print them out. They are worth the time to read them.

The T-Dawg Diet
A variation of the Anabolic Diet. This lets you have some more carbs and is more pleasing to your muscles after workouts. This diet helped me tremendously.
