Break Down My Diet

I'm new to the board. If you wanna see my introduction thread it's in the intro form. One of the biggest problems I'm facing this summer is that I'm on a work-term (i go to school for 4 months then work for 4) and I'm living with a family that my rent includes food. So I end up eating a lot of what they eat (not always eating with dieting in mind) so sometimes it's hard to always eat right.

Breakfast: Usually a bowl of mini-wheats with 1% milk or 2 pieces of whole weat bread with regular peanut butter.

pre-lunch snack: blue berry Nutri-grain bar

lunch: lean turkey or lean ham on whole wheat bread with BBQ sauce and light mayo (sparingly). With a regular sized low fat yogurt.

pre-supper snack: Either a green apple or banana

Supper: Can be any range of things usually not as healtyh as I would like it to be, but due to my residential situation I do anyways.

I never eat anything after supper.

I work outside all day so on any given day I usually drink 2-6 litres of day depending if I do a cardio work out.

My training regiment is. Mon-Wed-Fri-Sat weight lifting and Tue-Thurs-Sat Cardio which usually is 30-40 mins on a treadmill (don't run outside because of knee problem)

My ulitmate goal is to drop fat while keeping what muscle I have and hopefully gaining. I know it's hard to do both at the same time so I would say my highest priority right now would be to drop fat.

Hope this is significant information so I can get a few pointers on what to do and not to do. Any insight would be greatly appriciated. Thank you.

well to keep the muscle you have, you will have to take in much more protein than what you have listed. how much do you weigh? the minimum amount should be one gram per pound of bodyweight.

so start by getting 185 grams of protein a day. get it from chicken, tuna, lean beef, ground turkey, eggs, whey, etc.
