it's not that bad, but I recommend that you read thru this thread first: http://ironmagazineforums.com/showthread.php?t=21113

but general comments protein is a bit low, fat is a bit high (IMO Jodi

) that is just going by your macros, overall too much milk for cutting, fish oil should not be all at once, spread it thru-out a few meals, too much tuna I suggest adding another protein source like chicken breast.

It would also help to include your stats and workout schedule.

Meal-1
10 egg whites scrambled in Pam
1/2 cup of oatmeal (no milk)
water

Meal-2
1 can water packed tuna
salad (fat-free,low-sugar dressing)
1 med. baked potato
water

Meal-3
8oz. skinless chicken breast
1/2 cup brown rice
1 cup fibrous vegetables
water

Meal-4
1 can tuna
salad(same as above)
water

Meal-5
6oz. lean steak
water

Meal-6
8oz. chicken
water

Throw in a whey shake in waterpost-workout and you`re good to go.

This is a typical lo-carb day, and I advocate eating low carbs over 3 days ,followed by 2 slightly higher carb days, and repeated throughout the diet, tweaking things if and when necessary.

This is just a one day representative of the diet as you can eat more carbs, and different carb and protein sources.

Eat approximately every 3 hours, and drink copious amounts of water throughout the day.

Up to a gallon or more per day.

Personally,I would drop all dairy,bread,and fruit,as they will hinder your efforts.

Just my 2 cents,good luck !!

This meal is alright, although, I'd take out the cottage cheese and save that for your last meal of the day and add some egg whites. Also, cut down the whole eggs to 2.

Meal 2

2 Cups Skim Milk
6 Fish Oil Capsules

This is not a meal. Unless you are using the low carb milk then skip milk all together while cutting. You need a whey protein shake instead or even better a solid meal of chicken or fish.

Lunch

2 Pieces Wheat Bread
1 Can Tuna
2/3 Cup Mixed Veggies
1 Serving Peanuts

Make sure that wheat bread does not contain ANY high fructose corn syrup or brown sugar. Most do, so don't be surprised when you see it. Cut the peanuts down to 1/2 ounce

Pre-Workout

1/2 Cup Oatmeal
1 Cup Skim Milk
1 Serving Whey

Ditch the milk and add a few fish oil caps instead

Post-Workout

2 Servings Gatorade Powder
1.5 Servings Whey

This is fine. However, while cutting I prefer whey and oats

Post-Workout Meal

1/2 Cup Rice
1 Can Tuna

If this is your last meal of the day then I would make it Cottage Cheese and maybe a tablespoon of natty pb or 1/2 ounce of nuts or more fish oil

You need to ditch that skim milk while cutting. See the rest of my comments above.
