Since you asked,
Other than meal # 5, where are the fibrous carbs?
Just over a 1,000 calories a day is WAY too low. You are just going to bring your metabolism to a halt and the weight you do lose will be largely muscle.
Tuesday- Training back and legs together??? If you have any energy left after training back OR legs you did not lift with nearly enough intensity. Those muscle groups need a dedicated session for themselves.

You can gets hundreds of opinions off here and many will have useful information.

Good luck, glad to hear you are getting started, that's the toughest part.

it's good you are trying to take it in the right direction.

with that low calorie count - you're gonna crash fast. and not just progress wise. but mentally and physically.

at the same time, eating that low will put your lean mass in jeopardy.

[finny1000]

well any what do you think my cal range should be for 1 day around 1800

[finny1000]

ditto what everyone else said.

what time are you going to bed?

you need at least 1 more meal maybe two. every time you eat it boost your metabolism.

you should be eating oats in the morning. and green fibrous veggies at every meal besides morning and post workout.

meal 4 should be a whole food meal instead of a shake, if you can.

good luck.

[finny1000]

1442 cals still too low. You need around 2500-3000cals / day.

With that much cardio u are doing you wont have any trouble staying lean.
So add 2 more meal to your day. With your cans of tuna try and eat some peanut butter and vegetables. In the morning try to have some eggs. Before you go to bed have some lean beek, salmon, almods, caesin shake or whatever suits you best. Just get ur cals up. Protein needs to be up as well and carbs.

Hope this helps,

am i taking my carbs at the right times?
also i have been doing this for 2 days now and im fellig really bloted
and at some meals im not even hugry

[FortKnox36]

You need post workout nutrition.

I wouldnt have carbs past 6pm. You can carb cycle as well. High/low/no carb days. High have a lot of carbs. Low have medium amount ( 3 meals ). No carbs have no carbs cept veggies.

[finny1000]

and when you say STAY LEAN did you read my first post im not lean at all im trying to get lean.
o would you still say 2000 cals a day.

also how long does it normaly take you guys to get from 30% fat down to say 10%

how much fat shuold i b losing a week?

[finny1000]

anyone else plz?

[FortKnox36]

the cardio plus you eating all those meals spaced evenly will speed your metabolism causing you to burn fat when just sitting down. Cardio in turn will burn fat as well. It'll melt like butter. This is teh best healthy way to lose weight. You will see results soon.

I have your calories at 2670, using Katch-McArdle. Like I said in your other thread Im not big on low carb cutting, I believe more in moderate carb intake (45% of calories) and low fat. Basically you would be getting equal parts carb and protein, around 300g of each, and keep the fat as low as possible, around 30g (if your fat goes up more than this you need to take protein intake down, keep carbs the same at 45% of caloric intake). Regardless, dont let your fat go up much higher than 40g per day, its basically like a balancing act between fat and protein, you must make sure that your total calories stay as close to 2670 as possible. (For example if your fat goes up to 40 for the day then you need to compensate for those extra 90 calories by reducing your protein by about 23g). How do you accomplish this, easy, dont aim to take in any fat, let all of your fat come from your protein and carb intake, "incidental fat," I like to call it. This means, "no almonds, pb, flax, olive oil, etc..." Get lots of fibrous veggies. Use sweet potatoes as your man carb source (they have no fat), and use fish, chicken, turkey, soy, whey, casein, egg whites as your main protein sources.....Again, this is just waht I use to cut, its basically a simplified version of what Nark teaches in his thread if you want to go check it out and get a more in-depth explanation of it. But this has worked wonders for me. One VERY IMPORTANT aspect of this diet is that you have to keep your activity level up, you have to keep your lifting sessions intense (no longer than 90 seconds between sets) and you have to keep up on your cardio. With your carbs as high as they are, you have to make sure that you are using them as fuel and not just letting them sit in your glycogen stores.
