My low carb diet...Please check!

[king_eric]

Hi all! After working out a hopefully quite good low carb, high protein diet and getting my supplements in order, I am keen to find out if my diet to fine to use so I can finally get rid of this annoying body fat! Here goes...

7.30am: LA Whey 48g protein, 6g carbs, 1g fat
1 tablespoon of olive oil
1 apple
(I do my training at 6.30am, so this is straight after my workout.)

9.30am: 2 eggs, 1 slice of toast, 100g of tuna

12.30pm: 50g new potatoes, two 100g chicken breasts, 1 cup of salad

3.30pm: LA Whey, 1 tablespoon olive oil

6.30pm: 100g salmon, cup of salad

9.30pm: 100g salmon, cup of salad

11.00pm: LA Whey, 1 tablespoon of olive oil

In total, according to fitday.com, its all comes to 263g of protein, 66g of carbs, 68g of fat and 2094 calories. How could I improve on this diet? Is it enough to lose fat? I also plan on training 3 times a week with weights and 3-4 times on the exercise bike. Is it enough protein to grow? Lastly, the supplements I am using at the mo are Fatstripper and Sculpt, both from lamuscle.com. Thanks, hope you can help!

At 6 g of carbs I'd bet there's maltodextrin in your whey...something you may want to consider when you stall...this meal looks good

9.30am: 2 eggs, 1 slice of toast, 100g of tuna

Looks good...make sure that's a whole grain bread, and when you stall, this could go in favour of some brown rice

12.30pm: 50g new potatoes, two 100g chicken breasts, 1 cup of salad

Need a fat source here...and a slower burning carb source...try sweet potatoes instead...good to see veggies in your meal plan

3.30pm: LA Whey, 1 tablespoon olive oil

6.30pm: 100g salmon, cup of salad

9.30pm: 100g salmon, cup of salad

11.00pm: LA Whey, 1 tablespoon of olive oil

Whether it's "enough to lose fat" will depend on where you're starting from...overall, the diet looks good, but we have nothing to compare it w/...i.e. what you were previously eating

I also plan on training 3 times a week with weights and 3-4 times on the exercise bike. Is it enough protein to grow?

Again...we don't know your stats so that's a hard question to answer BUT, 263g of is a fair amt...you should give us your stats as well

Lastly, the supplements I am using at the mo are Fatstripper and Sculpt, both from lamuscle.com. Thanks, hope you can help!

Im 202 pounds, 5'7 and currently finished my bulking phase. I was eating about 3200 calories with 370g protein, 320g carbs and 80g fat. Yes, there is maltodextrin in there, but its my only protein shake. Should it make much of a difference? And when you say stall, do u mean carb up? Should I do it every four days? Should I eat lots of carbs with each meal on my carb up days? I'm still not very up on my carb ups! Thanks for the help!
