Keep this meal at least 45 minutes after your cardio.

Meal 2 shake
Add some fat here, such as flax.

Meal 3 4 oz chicken 1 cup of spinach cooked
Add some fat.

Meal 4 PWO 4 oz chicken 1 cup of oats
You want a fast acting carb source as well as protein, such as 40g whey mixed with 80g dextrose.

Meal 5 1 cup of spinach 4 oz of chicken 1/2 cup of oats
Good.

Meal 6 shake
Again, add some fat.

substitte maybe differnet vegetbalesand ossibly brown rice or wholewheat pasta for hte oats every now and then....

FOr fat loss, you don't want to run anyway. You want to elevate your heart rate to the level of power walking. The bike and eliptical are excellent for this. My specific comments on your diet are above.

Every meal should contain protein. Every meal should also contain carbs OR fats. Carbs and fats should not be combined in the same meal.

Lipolysis (the use of bodyfat as fuel) that you start during cardio will stop immediately when you consume carbs. Lipolysis will last for about 45 minutes (maybe longer) after cardio. If you want to eat sooner than that, change your meal to pro/fat instead of pro/carbs.

If you need 30 grams of fat for a meal, for whatever reason, then yes you have to swallow 30 pills.

Not cost effective, and a royal pain in the (__!__).

I always encourage the oil. :)

The sticky was right. The amounts of macronutrients are listed at the bottom of the sample diet. You need to calculate your bmr, and figure out the right amount of calories for your stats, then use the ratios of carbs, fats, and protein in the sticky.
