    My cutting diet. Too little?

    Good afternoon all. I wanted to post my diet w/daily totals to get a rough idea if im eating too little or not. I started this diet around Jan 15th, and was 6'1'', 221. Now im 207, and have maintained, maybe increased, my strength. Pretty much same diet everyday. Im willing to make that sacrifice.

    Non-workout cardio day

    9am-10am: EC stack, fasted cardio. Incline walk, 600 cals burned.
    11am: meal 1. Protein shake w/ fiber added, 1 tbsp flax oil.
    2pm: meal 2. 9oz chicken, 2 1/2 cups spinach, diet pop.
    5pm: meal 3. same as above.
    8pm: meal 4. same as first shake.
    10:30pm: meal 5. 9oz chicken 1 cup broccoli.
    sleep from midnight to 8:30.

    total: 2295 cals 66g fat 62g carb 365g protein.

    All my carbs on non-lifting days are from green vegs, and the fats are from the chicken and flax oil. Subtract the 600 cals from cardio, and its around 1700 cals. Am I starving myself?

    On workout days I just add the 400 cals from a pro/dex shake to my totals. So I would drink that at around 10pm, and have that last chicken + brocolli around 11pm and then sleep at midnight.

    bump for the crickets. I started adding 44 almonds througout the day on non-weights days to make up some calories since I get more on workoutdays.

    You don't count fibrous greens as carb/calorie intake.

    Veggie carbs are fibrous carbohydrates. I would not count them as a carbohydrate in a meal as they have NO effect on blood sugar levels. You can eat them with ANY meal but you need to have either fat or a carb like, brown rice, yams, baked potato, whole wheat pasta etc..... You body is using the protein in those meals as energy instead of storing it, I am assuming you want to keep the protein in your muscles?
