my turn to post a sample diet

[Stewart14]

i always kind of pay attention to what I eat, but I am going to be trying to be even more attentive to detail from now on. I am going to try to follow the school of thought that says to plan your meals around either high protein/high fat/low carb or high protein/high carb/low fat meals. This is a sample menu that I have put together, all comments are welcome, let me know what you think, diet gurus!

meal 1
2 bowls honey nut cheerios in fat free milk, 1 scoop ON whey

meal 2 (training days)
35 g dextrose + 24 g whey protein + creatine
this is during workout

meal 3 (training days)
24 g whey protein
post workout

meal 4
a. can of trader joes beef chili
b. grilled chicken with brown rice in teriyaki sauce

meal 5
2 eggs with cheese

meal 6
a. fried chicken cutlets with veggies
b. 2 sirloin burgers with veggies
c. lean pork with sweet potatoes

meal 7
a. 1 ounce walnuts + 1 scoop ON whey
b. 1 serving muscle milk

I didn't post the macros, but figure on everything being relatively close to a serving size, maybe 8 oz meat for meal 6 and 4 ounces of meat for meal 4.

1. Post the macros
2. why carb in the AM on non-training days?
3. Goal - bulk? Cut?
4. Why do you do this - same as me, appetite control?

1. I'll do this when I get home later.

2. I've always thought it was a good idea to have carbs in the morning to give you energy to get you going, plus I like cereal

3. I guess you can say cut, but really all I want to do is lose maybe an inch or so in my waist, it isn't a strict cutting diet to get shredded.

4. I dont know why I do it, it was just something I read that made sense to separate the meals like that. I do know that if I eat a big amount of fat before bed with protein that I am more satisfied throughout the night as opposed to eating a carb based meal before bed. that's why I like muscle milk shakes before bed, they really fill you up.

1. I'll look forward to that. You won't cut unless these are sub-maintenance calories, just so you know.

2. Depends when you train. I train in the evening, so no am carbs for me, ever. You can like cereal. You can like it just as well in the afternoon. No need to eat carb in the AM unless you find it comfortable.

3. see 1.

4. Berardi is a big fan of P+C or P+F meals. I am too, it's easier to feel comfortable on below-maintenance calories if most of my meals are P+F, and only the periworkout meals are P+C.

That's not the link.
And there's no need for a pic - just copy paste the numbers beside the pie chart. (It doesn't work in firefox but it does in explorer)
