I'm sure everyone here has seen it 100000x4^100 times before already but I really need some clarification and/or advice on where my diet is at. Was having great results for 2 months, and have hit a PLATEAU in my cutting diet. Currently at 240lbs (@6ft)...started at 265. I've read all the stickies, and have lurked this board for a long long time.
Meal 1:
Approx 1cup Egg Whites with one/two whole egg(s)
2 pieces of whole wheat toast or one serving of oats
Meal 2: Protein Shake (ON Nitrocore ~(5g fat 24g protein 14g carbs 5g fiber)
Meal 3: Source of Protein usually 1 can tuna with 1.5 tablespoons miracle whip light OR 5-6 oz chicken breast OR 4 oz lean eye of round steak with veg (Options: broccoli, stirfried onions and bell peppers, tons of garlic, brussells sprouts, green beans, asparagus..something of this nature)
Meal 4: Pre workout...Either 1 tablespoon of natty pb w/ 1 serving of whey/nitrocore OR 1 piece of bread with lunchmeat (approx 4 oz)
(Workout)
Meal 5: PWO....1.5 scoops of ON Whey with 10 oz Gatorade consumed over 20 minutes
Meal 6: Lean steak/chicken/shrimp/99% lean ground turkey w/ veg....broccoli OR stirfried onions and bell peppers w/ tons of garlic OR brussells sprouts OR green beans OR asparagus
SLEEP!
Questions: is my carb intake adequate for a cutting diet?
Are onions a 'veg' source i might want to avoid? I've heard they have a lot of carbs..am i being OCD?
Which should i stick to pre workout, Pro/Fat or Pro/Carb?
Should I be eating carbs in my second post workout meal?
I've been limiting carbs to only breakfast and PWO so far and any help would seriously make my life awesome.....thanks.
