    Cutting diet, not going so well....?

    I was trying to cut up but my diet was making me lose weight to QUICK!!!
    I put a stop to it, and want to try and change my diet abit, maybe not to cut but to lose fat....

    Anyways, my question is:

    Whole Wheat Wraps - Is this ok?
    Egg white/yolk - Adding more then one whole egg to my morning meal?
    Whole wheat pasta - a few dinner meals after a workout

    If I can think about more I will post.

    My goal is to lose weight but not lose it to the point of 4-5 pounds a week...
    My TDEE 3000CAL a day (round it off)

    I had my cutting diet to 2200, adding in the whole wheat products it would bring me up in cals about 500-600 more.

    I understand Whole wheat is good for fibre, But not the best food to eat when trying to get into shape, but its all I can think of

    I tryed to make my diet better, but it turns out either way it still sit under 2000cals, I can bulk up a few meals I guess.
    Stats:
    28year old
    5'9
    195lb
    Body fat hard to say, But it isn't anything low. ( 15% or more)

    Goal, I had a plan to cut up. But I was losing 4 pounds a week.
    Can't lose muscle, I can lose my gut, every thing esle on my body is pretty hard.
    So I was hoping to get a strong diet that will help me maintain and eat right and keep doing what I am doing in the gym, and hopefully turn my gut over slowly into something that looks good on the beach.

    Workouts 30-45min, and cardio was going good till I had to work 13hr a day, and then I got lazy.

    lose the ketchup, it is just sugar

    no fruit cups, again unnecessary sugar

    and find something better than yolk free noodle and wheat wrap

    you have also forgotten vegetables

    you also need some carbs post wo

    for best results keeps carbs strictly to:
    brown rice
    oats
    yams
    broccoli

    Sorry I forgot to put the green veggies in there, but I got that, I had the wheat wraps and noodle in there cause I needed some kind of cals, I am trying to do this on a budget, since my kids aren't into the whole plain food.

    And the fruit is a apple not them kids cups.

    I do have oats maybe I will grind them into a shake.

    Yams I forgot about but I also have them. So maybe tomorrow I will try to make a fix

    brown rice and oats are fairly cheap so that shouldnt affect your budget,

    i still think you should lose the fruit cups, i avoid all sugars except broccoli and cottage cheese when im on a cut
