    cutting diet, need advice

    Ok after a few weeks of reading and researching I came up with this diet. I am 21, 5'5, 160Lbs around 24%BF. Can you guy let me know if its good and what I need to adjust:

    07:20 L Glutamine 5G
    07:30 - 08:30 Cardio
    09:00 L Glutamine 5g, 5 egg whites + 1yolk
    10:30 Shake w/1tbsp Flax
    12:30 1 Tuna can & broccoli
    15:30 1/2 cup Cottage cheese low fat
    16:30-17:45 Weights
    18:00 PWO Shake w/100g Dex and 1tbsp Flax
    21:00 PPWO Chicken Breast, 1/2cup Brown Rice

    in total its around 2100 Cals, 62g Fat, 223g Protein, and 157 Carbs (mostly from Dex)
    Please comment on my diet and let me know what needs to be adjusted. Thank you.

    get ride of the flax in your PWO shake. . .TERRIBLE idea. Use full fat cottage cheese and use more whites in your first meal, thats only like 20 grams of protein

    GOOD! MAYBE ADD AN ECA OR ECY STACK AS YOU SEE FIT.
    07:30 - 08:30 Cardio
    WHY SUCH A LONG WAIT TO DO CARDIO? JUST ASKING.
    09:00 L Glutamine 5g, 5 egg whites + 1yolk
    GLUTAMINE IS UP TO YOU, WHERE IS THE PROTEIN? MAKE THIS A PRO/FAT OR PRO/CARB (YOUR CHOICE)
    10:30 Shake w/1tbsp Flax
    GOOD!
    12:30 1 Tuna can & broccoli
    ADD MAYO AND AN EFA OF YOUR CHOICE!
    15:30 1/2 cup Cottage cheese low fat
    BETTER TO HAVE AT NIGHT BUT BETTER THAN NOTHING I SUPPOSE!
    16:30-17:45 Weights

    18:00 PWO Shake w/100g Dex and 1tbsp Flax
    KILL THE FLAX IMMEDIATELY, MAKE SURE THIS IS 2:1 RATIO SO I ASSUME YOU ARE USING 50G PROTEIN?

    21:00 PPWO Chicken Breast, 1/2cup Brown Rice
    SOUNDS GOOD, ADD SOME VEGGIES AS WELL.

    in total its around 2100 Cals, 62g Fat, 223g Protein, and 157 Carbs (mostly from Dex)
    Please comment on my diet and let me know what needs to be adjusted. Thank you.
    Overall, that is a solid start and i wish you the best in your cutting diet.

    09:00 meal would 7 egg whites and 2 yolks be sufficient enough or should I add something else?
    12:30 meal what can I use for an EFA with that meal?

    I would have a pro shake w/ a few eggs if you like. It is up to you. One egg equals roughly depending on size 3-6g pro if i remember correctly? Needless to say you need to up your protein greatly in this meal.

    ok I am gonna have my 7 egg whites and 2 yolks cooked, + 1/2cup of oatmeal.
    Would that work for a breakfast? The thing is I have very hard time eating in the morning, I am not looking forward 7 eggs and oatmeal as it is.
    thanks

    After I added Dex to my PWO and Oatmeal in the morning, I am ending up with approximately :
    223 Pro / 73 Fat / 209 Carbs, do u guys think its too many Carbs? Most of them are taken after cardio and Weight lifting.
    Thanks

    dalcowbag -- why do u suggest he use full fat cottage cheese if hes cutting?


    dan476 -- i notice you say you are taking in 157g of carbs and 100g are coming from your shake and another 30 or so come from the brown rice.... but what about a day that you do not do weights.. are u having almost zero carbs?

    I would cut them back considerably on non-lifting days personally. Your main source of carbs should come from PWO & PPWO and other than that you should be running pro/fat meals.


    The only carbs i would have on a non-lifting ay would be after cardio meal which can be pro/carb (or pro/fat) and maybe some brown rice in a later meal, you are gonna have to see how your body reacts, if you don't see gains, drop the carbs.
