Diet Critique

[Warbugg]

Alright I figured it's about time to get serious. I've been lurking on here for about a week now. Started in the roids section then realized thats not where I needed to be. I've watched all of Milos's videos and pieced together a diet. I just need some help fine tuning it. Thanks.

Stats
18 years old
6'
270 lbs
BF: no idea but I imagine mid to high 20s

DIET

7am

4 egg whites/1 cup oatmeal/3 pieces wheat toast

10am

2 scoops whey protein

12pm

8oz baked or grilled chicken/celery/4 pieces wheat bread

3:30pm(post workout)

2 scoops whey protein (33g protein)

6pm

8oz lean beef/3 cups cooked broccoli

8pm

I need some kind of casein or cottage cheese here. What kind of cottage cheese and how much?


Totals

Protein-270g
Carbs-131g
Fat-47g

So my total calories are 2043 (wow thats more than I expected, I expected to be too low)

So my macros are 53/26/21. I feel that those might be a little off. In case you didn't notice I consider myself endomorphic with slow metabolism.


I'm on the treadmill 20mins every morning at 5:30. Then I work out pretty hard for about an hour and fifteen minutes everyday around 3:30.

Also does anyone have any subs for egg whites? I REALLY don't like them that much but I can deal with it if I have to.

Thanks for all your help.

I would bump the calories a minimum of 500 and double the cardio for starters.

what are you trying to accomplish with this?
what is your TDEE?

[FireGuy]

I assumed with bf% in the high 20's he is looking to get a tad leaner. Guess I should have asked and not assumed.

i agree with you, just wondering if he had any specific goals in mind

[Warbugg]

Yeah I was looking to get leaner. Hopefully to go down about 30-40 pounds. Sorry for not specifying. I just used a TDEE calculator and it is telling me around 3501.

When you say bump the calories, up or down?

[Warbugg]

Bump

what are the stats on your protein powder?

[Warbugg]

33g of protein per 2 scoops. Thanks for the advice. 12 egg whites *gulp* alright I can do that. Im adding a can of tuna to my postworkout which puts my protein at 55 for post workout. 2 bananas post workout is about 58g of carbs. So for postworkout I'm gonna do 2 scoops protein a can of tuna and 2 bananas.

[Warbugg]

My protein is 33g protein 16g carbs and 9g fat.

not a good protein powder IMO, it gives you no control over the carbs and fats, i would get a different one or just use more whole food

[Warbugg]

alright is there a certain one you suggest?

[Phate]
