Please review and offer advice on my current diet
I am currently 185 lbs around 12-15% BF 5' 10"ish
I am trying to achieve a BF of around 9% and maintain it while still trying to achieve muscle gains.
Currently I do no cardio in the gym. (Play golf, baseball and hockey during the week)
Train abs once a week
Lift 4 days a week in the gym
Have 2 beers 3 days a week after sports. Drink vodka water on Saturdays and some day time sunday parties.
Below is a diet that I have been sticking by for the past 3 months. I am not achieving my fat loss goals fast enough and looking for some advice. Also have been taking EC stack for 4 weeks.
Diet is:
Meal 1- 9% Greek yogurt, Fruit, Whey Protein Shake
Meal 2- Carbs with Protein - (Today it was spaghetti and Meat Balls)
Work Out (1pm)
Meal 3- Protein Shake (and eat meal 4 very shortly after)
Meal 4 - Protein, Vegetables and Carbs (Today it was Beef, Vermicelli noodles and broccoli)
Meal 5- Whey Protein Shake
Meal 6- Protein and Vegetables (Today it was steak, seafood and asparagus)
Meal 7- Casein Protein Shake right before bed and scoop of peanut butter
Drink water throughout day.

I know about alcohol... but I can't live in a world where I cant have a few beers after the game & a couple vodka waters on the weekend.
I am not getting hammered. I am pretty sure that my diet is hurting me more.

1500cals and you aren't losing weight? There's something amiss. You should browsing plenty of weight, including muscle, with those figures.
Your fat loss is stopped completely until your body breaks down the alcohol. Your goal of 9% will be exceptionally difficult whilst drinking 5 days a week.NO SOURCES GIVEN

Alcohol have a fairly high effect on test and other growth hormone levels like IGF-1 that will reduce 25% the day after you been drinking an average amount of alcohol. The more you drink the more the levels drop. If you drink several days in a row the levels in your blood drop upwards of 70-75%.
This is from a study by Mikael Mattsson at Idrottshögskolan in Sweden.

Unfortunately they decided to publish this in Swedish only. I have emailed the researchers asking for an English version but that might take a while.
Thanks

The author told me to use the references instead as there are no plans to have this written in English.
