So it's about that time to dial in my diet. I typically follow the below baseline plan daily, except I also eat snacks (mainly hard-boiled eggs) whenever I'm hungry too.
TDEE: 2462

Lift 4x/week for approx 45 min.
Cardio 25-30min 2x week

Total baseline cals. 2508 289/185/68
Side notes:
- I've been eating about 6 hard- boiled eggs a day on top of this, plus a chicken wrap (4-5 oz chicken, 1 leaf romaine, 1 oat bran/flax seed wrap) with this included my recent macros are approx. 2925 cals. 345/207/81
- I know my protein is high n carbs seem too low. I used to do a 40/40/20 split but the carbs bloated me to all hell so I dropped em and upped protein.
- My whole wheat bread choice is not the best, suggestions welcome
- If I were to up my shakes from 3/4 cup oats to 1 cup, I could net over 30g extra carbs (120 calories).. thoughts?
- I can't stand sweet potatoes but like brown rice n love oats
Thx for readin my novel fellas.. plz feel free to suggest any changes you feel necessary.
cheers!
