Total Cals and Macros?

Macros means that for each meal, how much protein/carbs/fats are you taking in from the food.

That way it is easier to see if you are taking in too much or too little of any given nutrient at a meal.

Go to NutritionData.com NutritionData's Nutrition Facts Calorie Counter or Nutridiary :: Free Online Diet Diary and enter all the foods (in the quantities you have them) so it spits out a total for the day.

It is hard to determine if what you eat is right for you without knowing the breakdown.

(ps: ratio's mean nothing - you need to eat an amount appropriate for your lean mass).

Not pertaining to diet but I would try a full body routine for a little while and see how you like it. I switched over from a split routine to a full body about 2 weeks ago and the results have been amazing.

As for your diet, these guys (and gals

above, got you covered.

	Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it. Michael Jordan
