Thread: Cutting and diet plan

Hello all,
I have been away from the boards for some time, i always come here looking for advice from workout to diet plans. I have gained some weight and am looking a little pudgy around the stomach region. I am currently 6ft tall and weigh 235 pounds. In the past i have come here looking for advice and you all helped me out a lot as i cut down to 215 pounds over a 4 month period. I am currently planning on starting this diet when i go back to college. My plan is to cut and keep muscle mass as to almost everyone on this board. I will show you my workout routines, and my pre=planed diet tell me what you think!

There is the workout plan, i know its not a push pull but i gathered this information from a book i purchased and through in some of my own knowledge change the weight and set reps weekly to confuse your muscles and prevent a peak. I don't struggle with the weight lifting material as much, but the diet plan is where im lost!

Monday:
Breakfast at 8 AM:
Instant Oatmeal, apple, and one large fried egg


10:30
Baby Carrots, One celery stalk dipped in fat free ranch



12:30-1:00
One can starkist tuna with water, two whole wheat pieces of bread (Mayo for the tuna), 6 oz salad with Italian dressing


4:00

Protein powder 2 scoops with water


6:00 workout

8:00
Grilled boneless chicken breast on the George Foreman, green beans

There is the setup diet i would plan on following each day with some additions to better suite and change up the diet, like salmon, and or some lean beef.

Calorie Makeup of the above meal: 1,515 calories
52.2 fat grams
129.9 grams of carbs
136.8 grams of protein
Saturated fat grams 12.1
Polyunsaturated 17.0 grams
Monounsaturated 17.5 grams

There is the information i think you guys need to critique my diet and workout plan. Any additions and subtraction advice would be greatly appreciated.

Tyler
