    Cutting diet

    Hey guys, i'm currently cutting. I'm at 250 lbs 30% bf looking to get down to around 185-190 @12%. I'm aiming for 2300-2400 calories. Here's my current diet (lifting day):

    Wake up: Pre workout meal:
    1 cup oats
    1 cup semi skimmed milk
    2 scoops protein

    Post workout meal:
    8 egg whites
    2 whole eggs
    1 cup semi skimmed milk

    11 am:
    9oz chicken breast
    plate full of vegetables (broccolli, carrots etc)
    1 cup oats

    2pm:
    8 egg whites
    some vegetables


    5 pm:
    2 scoops protein

    8 pm:
    same as 11 am, without the oats

    before bed: 300 grams fat free yogurt

    This all adds up to the calorie range I'm looking for. Does it look good? What changes should I make?
    Thanks in advance

    Not trying to discourage, but everyones log always starts out looking just like that. Just like OnTopTheGame said---see what that list looks like after the first week. Cutting phases are the worst bro. Good luck.

    if your BF% is that high im sure you can drop a solid 20lbs or so just by following a good work out regiment with a clean diet... although im sure a rigidly structured diet like that would be good for you after a week or 2 if you decide it sucks you might get discouraged and quit...

    Why not start off by estimating how much you can eat in a day and be with in your calories allowed for cutting then take it from there example i know i can eat
    2lbs of chicken
    4oz of tuna fish (with one of those premixed salad bags)
    4oz Yam
    4 hardboiled eggs

    and ill still have a couple 100 calories left on the table if i wanted to snack on something like muenster cheese or what ever

    throw in some nice heavy weight lifting moves squats deadlifts benchpress shoulderpress stuff like that plus some HIIT cardio after work outs and on days off im sure you'll shed weight fast

    I don't have this EXACT same diet everyday, this is just an example... my diet on other days isnt necessarily the exact same one, just based off this with some modifications but overall similar.

    I appreciate your reply man. But I prefer just doing it right/strict from the start, also I don't understand everyone being amazed/surprised by this diet, this is what most cutting diets I've seen look like.

    Also I know everything you mentioned about lifting, I've been lifting 1.5 years and have developed a good amount of strength and a good muscle base, just added on lots of fat since my metabolism was slow due to hypothyroidism.

    what?



    So far I've lost about 6 lbs if not slightly more in 2 weeks.

    a few things.

    1.) why almost no carbs after workout?
    2.) almost no carbs except veggies from 2pm-11pm but you down yogurt before bed, (i.e. more carbs than protein?). Whats going on?
