I am interested in changing my eating program. My goal is to gain 15 lbs of lean muscle and reduce overall B/F. I am 174lbs and about 12% b/f. I am looking for a program to count caloric intake, protein, carbs and fat %'s. I also want to make sure that I am balancing protein, carbs and fat at the right times of the day.
My current eating program looks something like this:
7:00 am
6-8 egg whites with sauteed broccli, onions, mushrooms
1.5 cups dry oatmeal and other whole grains (cooked and sweeted with 1 tsp brown sugar)
Coffee
9:30
8 oz grill chick breast
1 cup steam brown rice/barley mix
11:30
Myoplex deluxe with half rice milk and half water
Workout
2:00
8 oz.grilled chick
1 cup steam brown rice/barley mix
4:30
Myoplex deluxe with half rice milk and half water
6:00
8 oz of lean meat (fish, chick, beef)
green veggie
1 cup rice
8:30
1 scoop whey protein w/half rice milk and half water
10:00
1 scoop whey protein w/half rice milk and half water
I have been on this program for 1 year. I have gained a total of 6 keepable pounds and reduced b/f by 10%
During the past 12 weeks I have been cheating in between with simple carb type snacks, cookie, muffin, etc. This is killing me. I have an unsatisable sweet tooth!
On this program I am having trouble maintaining my gains, and I am putting on more body fat than I would like.
My goal is to get serious and begin to really pack on some quality muscle with the proper balance of p/c/c.
All suggestions welcomed
