just be careful to eat enough to keep your metab up and your muscle from being fuel!
here's a few things i noticed right away..also check diet forum..LOTS of good threads there
1) efas?
2) quality carbs?
3) enough calories?
4) variety?
do a search, you'll learn ALOT!

First figure out your calorie allowance. From there you can better space out your meal ratios you need for the day. Make sure your carbs are eaten early in the day. Most importantly is your PWO drink of at least 50 grams of simple sugars. You can save the brown rice for the meal following your PWO drink. If you have 50 grams in PWO, have 50 grams of brown rice about an hr later. So majority of carbs consumed are in your 1st meal and the two following your workout. And don't forget to add some good fat in there such as flax oil, walnuts, olive oil, etc. There's a wealth of free diet info around here, happy surfing!...Usualsuspect

The amount of carbs depends on how your body handle them....personally I eat about 100-150 grams a day when dieting down. But it vary's from person to person.

Personally, I would reduce the carbs and increase the protien. So frequently on this board I see proposed diets such as the one you have posted that would leave me feeling pretty hungry. Protien will usually make you feel pretty full and help keep your muscle mass when cutting. To me it seems that when you cut your portions too drastically it makes it really hard to stick with it, so plan something that you know you can stick to.
I am curious what your current diet is that you will be changing from. How drastic are the changes? Also, what kind of cardio do you currently do and what are you planning? At 17% you have room for some good initial progress, but as with anything else, it'll take time if you want to gey to 10% or even single digits.
