Once you learn the fundamentals of a sound nutritional program it is time to start constructing an actual meal plan. Endomorph diet plans can vary widely depending on which foods you prefer.

For example, some people hate vegetables so it would not be in your best interest to include a lot of vegetables hoping that you will like them. A few of them here and there is okay but don't go overboard.

You could save them for your last meal and then earlier in the day you can include other good carbohydrate sources.

Supplementation

No article on nutrition would be complete without mentioning supplements along with the role they play. There are pros and cons to using nutritional supplements.

The first thing worth mentioning is that supplements do not contain any magical properties regardless of what the ads claim. The ads are designed to get you to buy them.

Supplements should be used for convenience only. Eating 5 – 6 smaller meals each day can be difficult. Having 1 – 2 protein shakes a day can help you make things easier.

Protein shakes are much better than protein bars. Protein bars taste good but they also contain a lot of sugar. Think of them as glorified chocolate bars or candy in disguise.

A good multivitamin is a also a great idea. It is mostly for insurance.
