Time to get abs showing again, critique the diet.

[Pheedno]

I finished my cycle 3wks ago and am planning a cutting diet to trim down starting after Thanksgiving. I just now picked up cardio again and my cals. are at a maintenance level of around 2600-2700.
Take a look and give some opinions on the diet.

7:30am- 1Egg, 1white, protein shake w/ 1 serving oatmeal
9:30am- Braeburn apple
11:00am- 2Tblspn flax oil, 1/4 cup pecans
12:30- Grilled chicken salad w/ light dressing or flax
3:30- Grilled chicken breast(10oz), 1 serving oatmeal
4:30- Workout
6:00- Protein shake, 40g dextrose
7:30- Chicken breast or fish, 3 vegetables, 1Tblspn flax oil
11:00- Bedtime shake or more chicken.
Calories are at about 2500

Now I have a cutting(Prop/Winny/T3) cycle planned for Feb. in which this diet will be carried over into with just more of everything to up cals around 3000.
Let me know what you guys think.
More protein before noon maybe?


Thanks guys

Why only 2 eggs in morning? Do something along line of:

Meal 1 6-8 eggs w/ oats (about 1/2 yolks)
Meal 2 Chicken and complex carbs(about 1/4 cup)
Meal 3 same as above unless you want different meat
Meal 4 same again
Meal 5 post workout shake as you have it here
Meal 6 same as you 7:30 meal and eat that meal again at bedtime.

Ajust yours carbs a bit if you need to drop cals or increase, but don't eat any other than post workout in evening.

Thanks bro. The reason for less eggs is that I'm not a huge fan of them, but like I always tell myself..."I'm not eating for taste, I'm eating for excellence."

I'll agree with Silverfox. If u have ever tried going to work or school and skipping breakfast, u know what it feels like. You feel like shit and chances are i bet u eat more in the rest of your meals throughout the day. Thats why i like to eat decent size breakfast like Silverfox, i really need those calories right in the morning and it really does help me eat less the rest of my meals and it just gives me a lil bit better kickstart in the morning when i need it.
There are two times when u don't worry too much about dieting, thats breakfast and postworkout, of course still keep it reasonable.

This might work well to
1 protein shake, cup of oats
2 hrs later
2 protien bar
2 1/2 hrs
3 tuna fish on whole wheat
3hours
4 protien bar (prework out)
Post Work out
40g shake , 30-60g simple carbs
5 grilled chicken salad with a dab of fat free dressing
6 time release protien shake

I like what Silverfox has wrote up for yeah.

I love chicken but eating it 3 times a day for 12-16 weeks is a little much. So I subsitute it with fish ie: tuna, orange roughy or salman steaks. About the eggs. Just remember there are tonnes of ways that you can cook them to make them taste different. Scamble them and don't be afraid to add some spices. When ever possible eat solid meals rather then shakes. If you can't eat because you are stuffed down the shake.
