Meal 1:
3 egg whites, 3 whole eggs 33g Protein, 6g Sat. Fat, 21g Total Fat
1 cup oatmeal with 2 teaspoons brown sugar, 5g Protein, .5g Sat. Fat, 3g Total Fat, 33g Carb.
Make this 2 whole eggs and 4-6 whites. Drop the brown sugar and use splenda and cinnamon instead.
Meal 2:
IsoPure 50g protein shake
Real food here, protein and complex carb
Meal 3:
1 chicken breast, 44g Protein, 1g Sat. Fat
Small amount of whole grain pasta with very little Alfredo sauce, 15g Protein, 4.5g Sat. Fat, 8g Total Fat, 45g Carb.
Try for a better carb source here - brown rice, sweet potato, yam, etc
Meal 4 (usually Pre-workout):
IsoPure 50g protein shake
Gatorade
Need more real food here, and add another complex carb - you need to fuel your workout
Meal 5 (Post-workout):
IsoPure 50g protein shake
Gatorade
Is this whey protein? If so, it's fine. Add oats to your shake
Meal 6:
1 chicken breast 44g Protein, 1g Sat. Fat
Meal 7:
1 can tuna with a spoonful of Mayo, 12g Protein, 2.5g Sat. Fat, 14g Total Fat
2 slices whole grain bread, 8g Protein, 0g Sat. Fat, 3g Total Fat, 38g Carb.
I'd drop the carbs here - carbs + fat = bad news. Eat the tuna and mayo without the bread
This is the diet I try to stick to, but Saturdays I always end up eating some kind of crappy fast food. Working on the discipline to stop. Down to just Saturdays, used to be Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays.
Same here bro, I don't eat fast food ever, but I am WAY too relaxed on weekends. We both gotta get with it!
Edit: I suppose I should mention that my goal is to cut from 205 to 165. Over the next 12-14 months I'm going to get my workout and diet locked down so I can start my first cycle.
I'm 25.
