Hi,
I'm trying to get my abs out by my wedding in two month. That's why I started cutting about 7 weeks ago (was 184 lbs, now down to 167 lbs). However, it's been two weeks since my diet stopped the weight loss process: I haven't lost a pound in 14 days and my muscles are not more visible than 2 weeks before). My belly is flat and remains so when I'm seated. I guess I have succeeded so far to keep my lean mass as I lift as much as I did when I started cutting.
My daily macros are about:
1800 kcal
183g carbs
173g protein
60g fat
Should I cut even more on the fat? How about the carbs?
I've been told by some that if I wanted to go down to 10% BF, I should go for about 2 weeks with nothing but chicken breast and broccoli. However, that does not sound not so healthy, I made a simulation with some slight differences and the results are not that good:
Meal 1: 10 egg whites
Meal 2:
150g chicken breast
1 cup broccoli
Meal 3:
100g tilapia
1 cup rice
Meal 4:
150g chicken breast
1 cup broccoli
Meal 5:
100g tuna
1 cup cauliflower
Macros
1408 kcal
112g carbs
10g fat
193g protein
Only 1408 kcal seems a little slow. Should I replace the fish with some more chicken or Turkey? Is it okay to have so few carbs? Maybe some whole wheat bread?
I'd be interested in your opinion.
