I was chatting up with C Bino and he gave me the idea of bcaas pwo not mixed with whey. Then about 30min later I have my shake/oats ppwo on lifting days. Followed by regular meals. On cardio only days ( today ) Ill go with very little carbs and have pro/fat most of the day. These are a few tips I have gotten from Bino recently...
    well, everyone will have different philosophies. I prefer to keep cals higher when I start cutting. But whatever works for you. When you hit a wall, what are you going to do, though? drop your cals to 2000?

    If your meals are 2-3 hrs apart (which is fine) I don't see why you're only getting in 5 meals a day.

    What's the fat content of your turkey chili? I get lean ground turkey that has the same fat content as chicken.

    overall, it looks like you're trying to go low carb, but aren't getting enough fats. If you want to go low carb, fine. But I just don't see how you're getting enough fat for an energy source.

    Also, you could add eggs/egg whites in meal one. And try to get some real food pre-bed. Everyone seems convinced they have to have a cassien shake before bed. lol.

    I agree on the bcaas pwo. I do that too, but you didn't say anything about oats pwo, that's why I asked.

    Agreed thats also why i tell people to stay away from fat burners until they have plateaued!!!!! Its like walking down stairs you take one step at a time, you dont jump from the 20th stair!!

    Thanks for the advice. Ill do this for a few weeks and see what happens. And I have the fat content figured for 1 serving of chili at 8grams. My total fat intake per day not including any fish oil is around 44g/day....what do you guys suggest for daily fat intake? I could easilly throw in some almonds and snack on them throughout the day..
