How does everyone feel about red meat while dieting?

I have been dieting for 2 weeks now its going really well had a fair bit of red meat in the recent week but hasnt seemed to hinder my fat loss is there any reason not to keep it in for the whole diet?

planning on doing the nabba at hayes on the 3rd May but may bring it forward to the ukbff inters at pompey but all TBC...

for my red meat i am using

steak mince
21g protien
9g fat
4.3g of that is sat fat

now i was having it late night in a homemade burger... lean mince + 1/4 onion, tablespoon worcestershire sauce, 1 egg, mixed up then grilled)

200g of it returning

42g pro
18g fat
8.6g of that sat fat

any opinions...?

I've never done a show diet mate, but you said your losing weight when you've included it, so why stop it?

I understand nearer show time you'll drop it, but loads of competitors eat steak etc leading up to a show. I think Paul S might have you know mate?...

IMO, as long as the protein, fat & carb ratios are being met, surely it can't be a problem this far out...

Any pics dude?

do you want a girls opinion? .............well you are going to get it anyway!
Ive been dieting for 4 weeks and red meat hasnt affected my losses and i have used lean mince at least once a week - i think it is also a nice break for the tastebuds from chicken etc.

Nothing at wrong with it man, I don't know why people suggest this.
Its a great source of zinc and many other minerals.

The best thing you can do is get organic grass fed beef as its about 10* higher in vits/minerals and natrually leaner.
Tesco do an ok *finest one* if you can't source some from a butchers.

Whats your diet like atm?, are you low carbing or doing a CKD etc.

If your low carbing make sure you get plenty of fat I and many others on mp find the more fat you get into your diet when low/0 starchy carb diets the more fat you loose/more muscle you retain.. I know bizzare.

Tesco's extra lean is what I use as well for chilli mate.

I personally dont think it tastes any worse either.

Iceland do a lean mince, had it the weekend, made a kind of curry with it, was nice. and very cheap at £150 for...500 or 600g. I also found they do a turky roast for about £3.50 thats quite big, loads of protein no carbs and low fat. not tasted it yet though.......
