As a bodybuilder eating is very important. It is equal if not more important than training. What you put in your body will determine how your body will perform in the gym. You're body needs the propper amount of nutrients and fuel to propperly respond to the stimilus of weight training.

You should be consuming 1.5 grams of protein per pound of body weight and 2 grams of carbohydrates while training to build muscle. Make sure you're carbohydrate and proteins are coming from good sources. By that I mean good nutritient dense food. For protein egg whites, tuna, chicken breast, and turkey and for carboydrates yams, long grain brown rice, and plain oatmeal are excellent sources. Fats should be consumed in the forms of avaccatos and plain almonds. A bodybuilding diet is one where you eat 6-8 small or moderate meals throughout the day every 2 1/2-3 hours as opposed to 3 meals a day or the poor diet of 1-2 big meals.

It is always a good idea to measure your food to know exactly how much you are getting so you don't over eat or under nourish yourself. Having a propper body building diet requires a lot of discpline and awareness but like anything else in the world of body building the choice is yours. If you choose to eat right along with the propper weight training regimen you will eventually see definite results at some point.
