Hello, I just wrote up my own keto diet and I was wondering if anyone could help me out. My stats are as followed: 5'11" male. 172-175 pounds. Weightlifting for about a year.
Ive done crude measurements of bodyfat and it generally comes out to around 18%. That would mean my Lean Body Mass is around 150 pounds. To maintain 175 pounds I need roughly 2800 calories a day. If I want to cut down to around 150 pounds, I will need a 500 calorie deficit, meaning I should take in around 2300 calories/day while on this diet.
So now, my targets are:
Calories: 2300
Fat: Around 1500cals or 165grams/day
Protein: 600 calories or 150-170grams/day
Carbs: <200 calories or 50 grams/day
Correct?
Here is the diet I worked out:
Meal 1 - 4 eggs/1 cup egg white/1 slice cheese = 520 calories/28grams fat/54grams protein
Meal 2 - Protein shake (Olive oil ? 1tbs, flax oil - 3 tbs , flax seed 2tbs) = 400 calories/37grams fat/34grams protein
Meal 3 - 1/2 chicken breast. 1 Avocado, 1/2 cup almonds = 700 calories/58grams fat/40grams protein
Meal 4 - 1/2 cup almonds/1 slice cheese = 350 calories/34grams fat/14grams protein
Meal 5- Postworkout Shake (Protein with some carbs ) NO FAT = 100 calories/28grams protein
Meal 6- 2 tbs peanut butter , 1 tbs flax oil = 300 calories/30grams fat/8grams protein
This gives me:
Calories:2370
Fats:187g
Protein:181g
That works out pretty nicely right? Does my diet seem correct?
One thing I dont know, is that should I put carbs in my postworkout shake? If so - what type of carbs?
Thanks a lot for the help everyone :)
