Ok guys so heres the deal. iv been injured the last year and a half and about 3 months ago i started dieting and working out. i stared my weight at 260 and lost 20 lbs the first 2 months. this last month ive been eating a lot more protein then i did the previous 2 months and now im back up to 250lbs. but im pretty sure its mostly muscle since my bench press increased about 50lbs since i started.( im sure this is mostly due to how strong i used to be and am getting my strength back). anywasy so my question is should i continue to eat more protein and build as much muscle as i can and then worry about cutting more fat? my current diet
8:00- 5 eggs
1 slice of wheat bread
10:15- usually protein bar or fruit (in between class )
12:00- tuna sandwich
3 egg whites
2:00- chicken
veggies
sometimes brown rice
5:00- 2 scoops of whey protein
6:30- lift followed by 45 min of cardio
8:30 pwo shake 2 scoops of whey
9:15 lean protein veggies
11:00 cottage cheese
im going to start bringing my lunch with me to school so i can eat more protein in between classes. i also take multi-vitamins a lot drink lots of water.
i usually have a cheat meal once a week. im 20 years old 5'11 currently 250lbs. im not looking for a quick fix. i just want to make sure im on the right tack. thanks for reading and any advise will help a lot.
