First a little about myself, im 23 i currently weigh 202lbs... im currently deployed to iraq. I only have like 55 days left though, thank god. when i came to iraq i weighed 195 at 20 percent body fat. now i weigh 202 at 16 percent body fat. I decided its time to cut. its hard in iraq because of missions which usually last from 8am until 5 or 6 in the evening. I work with iraqi police and i spend most of my time at there station training them so i do have time to eat. I decided to start cutting and i have to get most of my stuff at the px. here is my diet, when i say lean protien im talking about either canned tuna, chicken, or boiled egg whites from the chow hall. each meal that says lean protien is 40-50 grams.

7am- lean protien, instant oatmeal (its not the best, the oatmeal has 40g of carbs, 18 of which is sugar)

9-10am lean protien 2-3 tbs of peanut butter.... waiting of flax oil to ocme in the mail.

12-lean protien

3pm-lean protien, oatmeal


5pm or so i workout

7pm-post owrkout meal... usually at the chow hall, lean protien and brown rice/potatoes or whatever is available at the chow hall... small portion

bedtime- shake and peanut butter


on days i dont have mission i usually have veggies with my meal i get at the chow hall. i do cardio 3-5 times a week. usually intervals for 20-30 minutes, or ill do a 20 min run at 8mph. currenly taking primo and winnie to help cut.

why you eatin peanut butter with your shake at night and in the morning?

[jrod32]

i was trying to get about 50g of fat a day. I thought peanut butter was considered "healthy" fats. I ordered flax oil to replace my peanut butter. it should arrive in about a week.

[smokeyd]

good, you will prob get enough fats from your real protein sources, the peanut butter is real easy to get carryed away with, been there done that

[smokeyd]

on a cutting diet you can not take any flax and get all the fats you need from your food, nark was talking about it in his cutting diet thread
