I need a simple, low carb cutting diet.

[SVTMuscle*]

Starting Dec 1st I wanna cut. But diet is difficult with school and lack of resources and money. Can someone layout a simple, 5-6 meal plan for me? I am natural, 20 years old, 6'1, 220 lbs....16% bf....5 day training schedual. Will be cycling 2 weeks on/off of Clen , 45-60 min AM cardio 5x a week, and 20-30 min post workout. thanks bros

I will also be supplementing with
Multi's
FIsh Oils
CLA
Taurine
Carnitine
Arginine

Easier for you to give us an example and we'll critique.

I dont have a set plan currently, it typically goes
9am- Whey protein shake w bowl of oatmeal and natty peanut butter or if I make to the cafeteria i'll have 7 egg whites with 2 peices of wheat break
11:30am- chicken with jazmine rice
2:00pm- turkey sandwich on whole wheat wrap
PWO shake
5:00pm- turkey sandwich with side of pasta

from 5-12 is where it gets sloppy and i kinda loose it, but it typically is like,
Cottage cheese, protein shake, cottage cheese till bed

Are you gonna run a low carb approach or a medium carb?

[SVTMuscle*]

medium carb would be best for m e

[mark_newcastle]

i wouldn't do so much cardio PWO, your body is already pretty run down after the extra intensity employed during cutting and needs its nutrients, jmo, but i usually stick to 5 mins high intensity, if any, and do the majority of my cardio am and/or nonworkout days. see how it goes though

also have you considered using glutamine during the phase?

and what would the rough macros be for your diet ?

[IBdmfkr]

Things that need to change.

No veggies?
No idea of the daily macros?
Not enough meals.
Drop the breads.
Figure out your maintenance caloric needs?

Start with those things.

Like I said, its difficult, since Im living a dorm and have practically no kitchen resources outside of a rice steamer and foreman grille. im gonna cut back on the rice and wraps, and use low carb 'light' wheat bread they offer in the cafeteria.
I like Mark's sample. im gonna switch the times around and try that out

[DNoMac]

Oh Big Tex, I wish you were around more often. Hopefully when I begin to cut in a few months you'll be around. Good luck with the diet SVT, I know it's a bitch when in school, especially the dorms. Tuna pouches are awesome, also invest in tupperware!

For all us College guys, just wanted to remind everyone, Spring Break is 12-13 weeks out... I'm also hoppin on the strict diet in 2 days. But for me I'm gonna use a different approach. I'm going to try to do a lean bulk with carbs leaning towards mid-high range, keeping cals about 300 over maintance and about 3 cardio sessions a week. I plan on cycling carbs and dropping them as i get closer to pussy week, i mean when i get closer to achieving my goals. --Yea its my senior year, you'll have to excuse the nonsense.

[SVTMuscle*]

Did you cheat at all???Where you full enough??

nope didnt cheat all, nor today. and I am realitively always full so its good. I am drinking over a gallon of water a day to keep me full
Day 2 is just about done to, got 1 more can of tuna and some broccoli to eat.

I've been mixing the tuna with BBQ sauce. and soy sauce on the broccoli. freakin broccoli is expensive! its like $3.50 for a smaller bag that lasts 2 days!

I'm a college guy...and sub 10% almost year round.

Since when do you need more than a cooler; a steamer; and a george foreman grill?

You have no excuse.

Im eating canned meat right now with broccoli...I'm anal with sauces.. Bulking or cutting i dont use soy-sauce or bbq sauce no need for extra sugar.. thats just me..most ofthe veggies i buy are frozen spinach .97 for about 2 cups green beans are cheap 1.97 for about at least 8 cups. Godda look for sales

Welcome to the real world at my co-op placment we get weekly grocery for free .. Pretyy much all junk food. I requested them to get a bag of broccoli for me now they do..

And every-friday the students get a lunch of there choice...
My choice is my body therefore it's what i bring from home...

my p-t job pays for lunch.... I cant even count how many times i sat in fast-food restuarants mid-class restuarants watching my co-workers eat...

forgot another example... 2 weekends ago was my sisters engagment party... I'm lean bulking i still packed my meals for the night...
Discpline.. Seems like your learning slowly.

[SVTMuscle*]

damn i didnt realize that the BBQ has 14 grams of sugar! time to throw that out, im gonna buy some Brushchetta tomorrow to flavor the tuna, its only 25 calories deriving from non sugar carbs i believe

psh..gettin offered food aint nuthin. Im to the point where i wont even take a bite of sumthin thats remotely bad. I just think if i eat it ill get fat

[SVTMuscle*]

What i do, is i just think of it as if Jamie Eason was eating next to me and what'd she think haha

[Hackamaniac]

Try mustard on your tuna...It doesn't tast great but masks the tuna taste..

[SVTMuscle*]

I've had it with tomato sauce too, its great

[wolfstrike]

Tomato and hotsauce is awesome.

[SVTMuscle*]

mid way through today, had a cup of rice with chicken for my 2nd meal, and 3rd meal was tuna with a small turkey sandwich. good stuff
