    Cutting diet tweaking needed

    Ok, so I've run dry with my diet (fallen off the wagon lol). I was eating perfect for about 4months, where I went from 30+% bf to 17(ish)%. I'm putting a diet together to run for the next month or two to try and drop to 10-12% to run a cycle in about November.

    I train Mon-Friday
    Monday; Chest + Calves
    Tuesday; Shoulders + Abs
    Wednesday; Back + Forearms
    Thursday; Legs + Abs
    Friday; Arms + Forearms

    and I'll be doing cardio in the nights (jogging, possibly HIIT once or twice a week).


    I was thinking about doing this diet, feel free to critique it ;

    Meal 1
    1 Scoop Whey
    1/4 cup oats
    3 whole eggs


    Meal 2 (Pre-Workout)
    1 Tin Tuna
    1/2 cup pasta


    Meal 3 (PWO)
    1 Scoop Whey
    1 Turkey Breast
    1/4 Cup brown/basmati rice


    Meal 4
    2 Turkey Breasts
    1/2 Cup Brown/Basmati Rice
    1/2 Cup Broccolli


    Meal 5
    3 Boiled Eggs
    8oz Steak
    1/4 Cup brown/basmati rice


    Please critique this, thanks

    Meal 1
    1 Scoop Whey
    1/4 cup oats
    3 whole eggs

    2 whole eggs, 4-6 whites, and 1/2 cup oats


    Meal 2 (Pre-Workout)
    1 Tin Tuna
    1/2 cup pasta

    Pasta is a processed carb and not the best/cleanest choice. If you MUSt have it, be sure to get a very good high quality wholemeal pasta, preferably not made with flour


    Meal 3 (PWO)
    1 Scoop Whey
    1 Turkey Breast
    1/4 Cup brown/basmati rice

    You probably don't need the turkey here, make it 2 scoops of whey instead, or 1 whey 1 casein. is the rice measured dry or cooked? In either case, double it - so 1/2 cup dry rice, or 1 cup cooked.


    Meal 4
    2 Turkey Breasts
    1/2 Cup Brown/Basmati Rice
    1/2 Cup Broccolli

    Are these real turkey breasts, or deli meat/cold cut turkey breast? i'm gonna assume it's the former, in which case this is a good meal. Make broccoli at least 1 cup, 2 is better.


    Meal 5
    3 Boiled Eggs
    8oz Steak
    1/4 Cup brown/basmati rice

    That's ALOT of protein in one sitting. Is this right before bed? If not, you need to add a bedtime meal. Either way, I would drop carbs here this late in the day, so no rice. This is already a good protein/fat meal with the eggs and steak. Add more veggies here, spinach would be great with the eggs

    Unless meal 5 is right before bed, add another meal. Cottage cheese, lean steak, or a casein shake

    Comments above in bold. You need more than 5 meals a day though!
