    Why is there no protein in meals #1 & 2? How come when you do have a protein meal the amount is all over the board?

    Sorry Fireguy, I was in the midde of my post when my internet kindof exploded. I use to drink Milk in meals 1 and 2 but wanted to cut down to only 2 cups of milk/day. Plus eating food is easier thank drinking milk from a thermos at school every day. Also found cooking eggs every morning a bit tedious so I supplemented the fat from eggs with more EVOO and the loss of protein was made up for by more chicken. I am only missing protein in meal #2. Any reccomendations on how to encorporate protein into meal #2 ?

    Dieting in general is pretty much a tedious thing so that's something you will eventually have to get around. The diet is far from perfect but at 25% bodyfat you dont need it to be perfect to get results from it. If it were me I would still add in some protein in meal two and try and even out the protein intake a bit more per meal.

    How would I improve it ? Keep in mind I'm allergic to all fish & nuts.

    Mainly by making the two recommendations I already gave you. Besides that I would drop the milk, add in quite a bit more fibrous veggies as well as more EFA's.

    ^^My diet is obviously effecting my already challenged typing skills. "Tedious", In reference to him not wanting to make eggs as it was tedious.

    sorry, I really wasn't being a smarta** for once, I was thinking it was a form of redundant that I hadn't heard of and I'm a fairly well read linquist and was kind of excited about learning something new! But alas, just a slip of the left index finger.

    imo, your diet looks quite good if your goal is to make slow and steady cut.
