    Change white rice to brown rice. I would double your protein after the workout. Go from one egg to at least five egg whites and a whole egg in that breakfast after the workout. Meal six you should remove the rice and replace it with a green vegetable. That is how I see it.

    1- Protein shake 120cal, 0carb, 27g pro, 1g fat

    Morning is a good time for a shake if that's what you got, but I would drink your shake while you were cooking up about 3 whites and a whole egg and a half cup of oats. Don't adjust any calories out of any other meals to compensate.

    (Workout) Mon To Fri ->5min jog to get the blood flowing 30 min weight lifting with 30-45min of cardio right after.

    2-Protein shake (right after workout) 120cal, 0carb, 27g pro, 1g fat

    You need some carbs right after your workout as well. For mine I eat an 8oz chicken breast and a few red potatoes

    3-(20-30min after workout) ½ cup of oats 75cal, 13carb, 3g pro, 1g fat
    -1 hard boiled egg 70cal, 1carb, 6g pro, 4.5g fat
    -2 pieces of chicken bacon 60cal, 3carb, 6g pro, 4g fat

    4- ½ cup cottage cheese 90cal, 6carb, 15g pro, .4g fat
    -2 slice of whole wheat bread 256cal, 48carb, 8g pro, 4g fat

    5- chicken breast 120cal, 0carb, 24g pro, 2g fat
    -1/2 cup of white rice 130cal, 29carb, 3g pro, 0g fat

    I think V-tech made a good suggestion for changing to brown rice. Some prefer white, but I like the lower GI in brown and the fact that it's natural and not bleached

    6- 1 can of tuna 120cal, 0carb, 30g pro, 1g fat
    -1/2 cup of white rice 130cal, 29carb, 3g pro, 0g fat

    7- 1 salmon steak 150cal, 0carb, 24g pro, 6g fat
    -1/2 cup green beans 20cal, 5carb, 1g pro, 0g fat

    8- Protein shake 120cal, 0carb, 27g pro, 1g fat

    I'd switch meals 4 and 8 around but add a good carb source to your shake


    TOTAL -> 1581Calories, 134Carbs, 204g Protein, 25.9g Fat

    My goal right now is to drop my bf% before I can even think about bulking up (which I would love to do when the time is right) .
    I have calculated out that 2,790 calories are required to meet my body's energy needs at my activity level , so I have cut it down to 1684 per day. I am cutting down a total of 1106 calories a day .... Am I dropping it a bit too much here??
