Your fats are way too low, I'd shoot for at least 50g, if not more since if your macros are right you're only getting 77g of carbs. You can get your additional fats from fish oil pills and EVOO.

I'm not some crazy anti-protein shake guy but I count you have protein shakes in 7 of your meals? Try some more real food in there.

You didn't list the macros for your foods but either post them up or double-check them as something doesn't appear to be right. GL.

Seems like a bit of a protein overload there young fella. Stick with one scoop of whey included in meal 1, and then 2 scoops of whey post-workout. You could have some casein before bed, but you dont need all those shakes. Try including some more fish oil caps or avocado for some healthy fats and definitely more whole foods as per the Sargeant's suggestion. Overall though you seem to have done some research about the types of foods you should be eating and deserve cred for that. You just need to restructure your meals.

Thank you for the complement Blaz.
I read that too much fish oil cause Some sort of bleeding or something like that? So i followed the recommended doses per day, 2000mg. Is It safe to consume more than 2000mg?

And the reason why I have so much protein shake, its because eating meat 2-3 times everyday is too expensive for me, as im a student working part time as a bartender. No doubt bodybuilding is an expensive sport.

Too much fish oild CAN thin the blood. That may be an issue if you already take blood thinners but I'm guessing at 17 you don't?! Even so you'd be quite safe at 4g per day. I take about 8-10g per day.

Do you know your bodyfat%?

[iamblack]

Thats good info! Prolly 20-21%
I did a dirty bulk, never ever gonna do that again. Lesson learnt and Now i trying to bring down my body fat as low as possible. Doing cardio 6 times per week. 4 steady state cardio 2 of which is fasted cardio for 35-45 mins always try to hit 45mins. 2 hiit session. Rowing and cycling. For 20mins. 1 min rest 1 min fast.

You dont have to eat meat for every meal to get good protein sources from your food. You've listed some good alternatives already such as egg whites, and tuna is fairly cheap anyways. Maybe try some cottage cheese as well to add some variety to your diet.

Cottage cheese... Hmm, just to check with you, will dairy product affect my cutting diet? Because i've read some articles about it so took out milk in my diet, man i love milk.

Cottage Cheese is the exception to the dairy rule

If you have any casein on hand, cottage cheese goes well with this as your last meal of the day.
