How does my diet look?

I am trying to loose as much fat as possible while retaining muscle.


Meal 1 – 7:30am
½ cup of Quaker Oats
1 banana
6 egg whites 2 whole
2 cups 2% milk (am going to try to switch to skim but i like 2% sooo much better)

Meal 2 – 11:30am
2 Chicken Breast Or 1lb of grilled shrimp
Lettuce, Tomatoes, bell peppers, Cucumbers, sprinkle parmesan cheese, light Italian dressing

Meal 3 – 2:30pm
1 Can of tuna
3 egg whites
Tbsp. of miracle whip light

Meal 4 – 5:30pm
Grilled Chicken Breast, Tilapia fillet, Shrimp, Frog Legs, or lean steak
Small serving of brown rice or whole grain pasta w/vegetables

Meal 5 – 8:30pm
½ cup of oats
2 egg whites

Look like you could cut the oats out of the last meal, no need for them at that time of night.

Drop the banana in favor of berries. I prefer blueberries, any will do. Forget about switching to skim - drop the milk all together. That's alot of sugar, you're not going to do a good job dropping fat drinking milk. Sorry! I love it too and have to live without it

Meal 2 – 11:30am
2 Chicken Breast Or 1lb of grilled shrimp
Lettuce, Tomatoes, bell peppers, Cucumbers, sprinkle parmesan cheese, light Italian dressing

I'd like to see a complex carb in this meal - brown rice, sweet potato, yam, quinoa, lentils, beans, etc

Meal 3 – 2:30pm
1 Can of tuna
3 egg whites
Tbsp. of miracle whip light

Crappy meal. Tuna/eggs are fine, but that's all you have here. Get a good carb source, or trop the miracle whip and use so EVOO and vinegar

Meal 4 – 5:30pm
Grilled Chicken Breast, Tilapia fillet, Shrimp, Frog Legs, or lean steak
Small serving of brown rice or whole grain pasta w/vegetables

Wow, frog legs - that's new. Not sure how good of a source they are, never heard of them in a BBing diet. Good meal otherwise

Meal 5 – 8:30pm
½ cup of oats
2 egg whites
What kind of meal is this? 2 egg whites is like 8g protein, and 1/2 cup of oats (carbs) right before bed? Definitely drop the oats. Drop the egg whites too - they are processed very quickly by your body and won't do much for you overnight. Go with a casein shake, full fat cottage cheese, or a lean steak
