3 things..........1) You got something agains fish oil?2) I kinda think your fat is a bit high, hopefully TP will chime in here. Typically its 15G of fat coming from Fish oil and then either 2 higher fat proteins OR 1T. Flax oil. 3)Don't eat til you are full
Eat til your Satisfied.

Thanks Jodi!!!
I thought there wasn't a difference between fish oil and flaxseed oil. They are both rich in Omega 3's. Is it something with the EPA / DHA? None the less, I can switch the flax in meal 6 to fish oil (10-15 grams.)
Should I eliminate the natty pb in meal 2 to reduce my fat intake?
I followed the low carb day meal plan yesterday, and I was actually felt satisfied after the carb meals. I guess to keep it structured, I can eat double portions of carbs instead of until full on high carb day. That would keep me at 2-2.5 grams per pound of BW.

The EPA/DHA in fish oil doesn't need conversion. Your body doesn't need to convert it unlike Flax. Flax is good to keep as well, you want a variety. However, your body has to convert it in Flax and because of the low % of conversion you don't get enough EPA/DHA.
I would drop the PB. As long as you are eating salmon, eggs and or red there is no need for additional fat except for your EFA's

As for the Natty PB, I will exchange it for a small protein shake to add some protein to Meal 2.
Thank you

Also, what's with all teh cardio? 6 cardio sessions a week? I really don't suggest it, considering TP's plan suggests that you do no cardio unless absolutely necessary...also doing HIIT on a high day is kinda pointless, don't you think

That's pretty remarkable....the first thing I think about in the morning is certainly sex and breakfast, as opposed to killing myself on a treadmill
