At 12 I'll have lunch after lunch there's no more brakes or anything I clock out at 4:30 but I can have another snack around any time before I clock out after I clock out I can have any meals since I'll be off work! I need help with the "snacks" and meals for the day.

    What do u estimate your bf%?

    There r lots of guys who have similar schedules. I think 405 works construction and cut his bf down to around 8% ( I am guessing) from 25ish. Another guess.

    Your protein seems skewed to protein shakes and not real food. I know you may lack access to microwave but you can do a lot if you put some time into prepping meals. I make all my protein and veggies (except salads) on day off. I eat chic and shrimp and tuna fish, often cold over a salad. I eat refrigerated previously microwaved sweet potatoes for pre workout carbs. Nuts apples hard boiled eggs make great snakes. Very portable.

    You will need to work out the calorie count and weight some foods at the beginning

    here's a basic nutrition plan for you

    go 2,700 cals/day with no more than 265 grams of protein per day based on your personal stats.

    before we can help you identify proper snacks, you need to understand the macros of what those other items are first, so that you can come close to hitting the macros I've provided you.

    PM me if you want the macro calculator. It helps organize your nutrition plan

    Hello, can I get the macro calc as well ? If you charge something it is fine with me. It's just I can't access the web often enough to use myfitnesspal and it gets really annoying. Thanks
