Need tips and critics on my diet!!! I feel stuck!

[Smallnaturalbuilder]

This Monday I finish my third week on a low carb/high protein/moderate fat diet. Last year, I dropped my bodyfat from 18% to 12% with a similar diet, but it took me a lot (about 6 months).

Obviously, I need help with my diet. I started this diet with 20% body fat (Tanita Century 4000--Bioelectric Impedance), and my goal is to reach 10% by June 1st. I was planning to add Anavar for 6 weeks at 40mg to help.

My stats:

Age: 25 years old
Height: 5'9
Experience: Lifting since 17, trial and error kind of road with many mistakes, but trying to improve and learn everyday.

Weight: 167 (I did a natural bulking diet and went from 157 to 171 in 6 months, now I have dropped 4 pounds so far going into the third week of my diet. Tanita says 2 pounds are from fat, and the other 2 are from water. )

Bodyfat %--19.7% in my last reading, or 32.5lbs of bodyfat)

This is a sample day:

7:30 am---Wake up

8:00am---Meal 1:
6 egg whites
1 slice of ham
1 slice of whole wheat bread

9:20am: Training (Volume training---High rep, light weights, short rest periods)

11:00am---PWO
1 SMALL Welch Grape Juice (21g carbs)
2 scoops Whey Protein

1:00pm---Start to work (Sometimes, I eat about 2oz. of peanuts before I start working If I'm too hungry, need to know if this is ok)

2:30pm--Break (Meal 2)
1 cup of Broccoli
About 2 or 3 medium pieces of Chicken Breast, Fish, Salmon or Beef Steak.

(This is one of the critical questions....is it ok to eat red meat here? I do it pretty often, or sometimes eat some FRIED fish (I use Coconut Oil to fry it). When I eat Salmon, I know it has a lot of fat also, good fats, but a lot nevertheless.)

7:30pm---I get out of work (Meal 3)
From here I choose from any of these options:
1-Taco Maker Salad---(Lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream, cheese and ground beef or chicken)

2-Burrito's (Chef Salad)---It contains lettuce, diced tomatoe, 2 pieces of avocado, cheese and chicken)

3-Domino's Pizza (Buffalo Wings without sauce)
4-El Meson de la Roosevelt- Salad with Chicken (slight dressing)

5-Two Ostrim beef sticks (28g protein) and 2oz of peanuts (14g protein)

Before bedtime--Meal 4:
2 scoops of Casein Protein (48g protein)
10g of L-Glutamine
1 teaspoon of Flax Seed Oil

Supplements I use:

1-Multivitamin/Mineral (potent doses)
2-Potassium--1,500mg daily
3-Green Tea--500mg of EGCG daily
4-Caffeine ---1 cup of cofee at morning, with breakfast (Use Cremora, not milk)
5-Flax Seed Oil- At night, and also on a Whey/Casein shake blend on non training days)
6-L-Glutamine--10g on my cofee before Workout and 10g on my bedtime shake)
7-L-Tyrosine/Vit. B1 blend--1,000mg

I WOULD HIGHLY APPRECIATE SOME HELP. I feel I'm stuck right now and don't know if it is because of the fats or the carbs. I started consuming about 70g of carbs per day the first week, and have been dropping the carbs to about 30-40g now. Maybe I'm eating too much fat?

Critique, please.

How much fat are you eating exactly?

[gbrice75]

IMO your diet sort of sounds all over the place. Firstly, you need to figure out and post your TDEE so we know your maintenance calories. From there, your diet can be tweaked to fit within your caloric goal for the day (probably a few hundred back from your TDEE). Secondly, you need to post up accurate macros for each meal; P/C/F and total calories. Before starting, I can almost guarantee you that Meal 3 will have to change drastically from that junk you're eating now. Something along the lines of 4-6oz lean meat, a sweet potato, yam or brown rice, and broccoli or some other fiberous veggie.

Thanks a lot for the replies. I'm gonna take my time to try and post all the macros and info. From what I read from you guys, it seems like if the problem is my Meal 3, then I suppose it is because of all the fat in those meals, right?

Carbs shouldn't be the problem, since I'm eating about 30-40g right now.
