supplements
ON WHEY

should i split the pre workout meal in half and eat some rice/chicken POST workout also? or is that mainly for bulking
should i supplement flaxseed oil? if so when would be the best timing? meal #2 since meal #1 has enough fat already?

Cals sometimes a bit higher since i eat a banana in morning im running clen so im eating it for the potassium

1/2 your diet is shakes, you only have one good meal

1/2 your diet is shakes, you only have one good meal

if i add anymore food i will be taking in to many calories :S

maybe instead of 280g chicken breast pre workout i can make it 140g pre work out and eat 140g chicken breast post workout??

[scared1]

Where did you get that graph from? Pretty cool. Anyway, I think what twist means is to get rid of the shakes...or at least one of them.

You hit a plateu at 175 lbs? come on now... Why are you even cutting at that weight, you will end up with a concentration camp look. Unless you are a 14 year old sedentary girl, you need to up your calories. You would very likely loose about a pound a week at 2200 kcal per day. You know what types of food to eat - Add two more solid meals and aim for 50p/30c/20f at 2200 kcals.

good post

[Damienm05]

Eat food man. Do more cardio if you must but you need to eat.

[xtinaunasty]

not enough calories!!!

[FireGuy]

It does appear the calories are too low but without knowing the OP's BF% & LBM it's really tough to give out any good advice.

[metski]

i think i have high bodyfat % even though i lost 80lbs like i have a soft tummy and when i sit down its flabby.

i think im prob about 15-17% body fat

i thought less calories i eat the faster ill lose the excess weight.

i feel fine eating 1700-1800 calories i have enough energy to lift 5x a week and run everyday 4-7km

><

my goal is to just achieve a flat stomach.

what are the benefits of eating more cals i dont get it :S
more i eat the longer it will take to loose weight.

but what kind of meal do you guys recommend to throw in there?
salmon salad? what types of greens should i use?

[xtinaunasty]

i dont know how you do it. thats how many calories i eat and im female. did you calculate your TDEE and BMR? You shouldn't have more than 1000 cal deficit or you will burn muscle.

i dont know how you do it. thats how many calories i eat and im female. did you calculate your TDEE and BMR? You shouldn't have more than 1000 cal deficit or you will burn muscle.

my daily calorie needs are about 3000 so if i eat about 1800cals thats a defect of 1200 which isnt to bad.
i guess cals are bit higher forgot to add 1 banana 1.3P 27C 0.4F 105 Cals(potassium for clen ) + 1/2 cup grape juice 0.7P 18.9C 0.1F 77 Cals (sugar for creatine)

i thought i wont loose muscle as long as i have enough protein.

im getting like 1.15g of protein per lbs
175 x 1.15 = 201g protein

im 100% committed to this >< i use to drink 6-10 cups of coffee a day i play alot of poker so i need it to stay focused but i quit coffee completely cold turkey has been brutal.

been making green tea storing it in fridge and drinking that through out the day and every so often nibble on a few sunflower seeds (not many)
