sticky, in the diet section

[scotty51312]

there are lots of diets in the diet forum just search through the threads

its good u want to research and learn to diet...

but do not fall into the trap of just cookie cutting someone elses diet online..most diets are designed specifically for a persons goals, metabolism and such..

what works for one person may not work for you due to a variety of factors and you may face the problem of adding to much unwanted body fat or not getting in enough calories to suit your needs.

Post your own diet up first along with the macros. We have some great guys here that will help you out but you need to do the leg work first. Good luck.

What you've told me about your diet tells me you've put no effort in it. Do you know what you're TDEE is? (total daily energy expenditures) People who take thier diet sersiously know the macro's for every meal they eat (cals/protien/carbs/fat) and totals for the day. Here is an example of my cutting diet. This will show you the kind of effort you need to put into yours

Meal 1 when i wake up
1 scoup whey 4 grams fish oil
Cal 130 Protien 26 carb 3 fat 6

Meal 2 approximately 1 hour later (however long it takes me to shower get dressed and prepare it)
1 cup egg beaters with 2 slices fat free cheese with 1/2 cup oats 5 g olive oil (in the egg beaters)
340/37/34/8

Meal 3 3-4 hours later
10 oz chicken breast 2/3 cup sweet potatoes 1 cup brocoli
470/62/41/7

Meal 4 Pre work out meal
2 oz (uncooked wieght) whole wheat pasta (penne)1 slice fat free cheese 1 can tuna 1 ozfrozen peas (makes something like a tuna caserole)
325/33/43/2

Meal 5 Post work out shake imediately after workout
2 scoups whey 1/2 cup oats/5g flaxseed oil
450/57/34/12

Meal 6 no more than 2 hours later usually 1 hour is a repeat of meal 3 the veg might change or it might be the equivelent in turkey breast or sirloin depending on how sick of chicken i get
470/62/41/7

Meal 7 usually before bed
3/4 cup fat free cottage cheese
2 tbsp natty peanutbutter.

total numbers for the day are

2460cal 306g protien 211g carb 56g fat
51% Protien
37% carb
12% fat

Current maintenance calories are right around 2900-3000 (this is my TDEE)


So here's my advice. When we say go to the diet forum and look at example diets thats what we mean. My diet is designed for my needs so yours needs to be designed for yours. It takes work and no one is going to do it for you. Good luck

Well, I must say I am not even close to having that whole set-up like you have. I have alot of work to do, and im greatful you have showed me an example of what your whole day consists of. I will educate myself, and hopefully soon ill have everything layed out on the table as to all off my daily meals, and all of my calories/carbs/protien/fat. I appreciate the time, and thanks for letting me know what needs to be done. And thanks for the criticism.
thks

I just went to the harris benidict method and figured out pretty much how many calories i need a day and how many i would need to gain weight. Wow that is so interesting, the equations i had to use to figure that out. Im gonna keep reading reading reading.!!
