My Diet **Help / advice**

[BEZZ UK]

This is the diet I?m running with @ the mo (lost about 5lb in 8wks, can see a very small difference). I always struggle when trying to strip my fat off. I think all my previous errors have always been dropping my cals too low & not eating enough protein.

I spoke to a personal trainer the other day & she gave me some rather weird info that contradicted everything that I?ve ever read on BB.com. So I?m just after some opinions on how I should modify my diet to help me strip off my fat.

I'm 24, 5ft 9 & 205lb (prob mid/low 20's body fat).

6:10 - Black coffee
6:30 - cardio (30/45 mins of either walk/cross trainer/swim)
7:30 - 48g ON Protein
8:00 - 4x Wheatabix & banana (400cls, 20g protein, 65g carbs, 6g fat)
10:00 - Cottage Cheese (120cls, 15g protein, 5g carbs, 3g fat)
12:30 - 2 tins of tuna (60g protein) & brown rice
14:30 - 24g ON Protein
16:30 - 1 tin of tuna (60g protein) & brown rice
17:45 - NO Xplode & TRAIN!!!!
19/19:30 - 24g ON Protein
20:30 - 2 chicken breasts with salad or veg
OR
6 egg whites & Tin of tuna with salad or veg


I drink water constantly throughout the day & probably 1-2 litres during training.

All advice & criticism welcome (just not too harsh.... lol)

For starters, DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT workout on an empty stomach. You will lose out on Muscle Mass.

If you must, stretch out after the black coffee but do not exercise the body much.

I suggest you keep your cardio AFTER weight training if not else.

If you want to warm up your body from the morning, do like 30 pushups, thats it. After the black coffee and stretching.

Secondly, I think you take too many carbs, have a nice carb load in the breakfast but avoid the brown rice and salads later throughout the day.

If you are up for it, I recommend you go for tabata or HIIT, they really scorch up fat post workout.

I suggest you invest in a multi-vit.

And avoid machines when you are working out.

If you are really really in a hurry to lose fats off, you can almost discard carbs (have a loading phase once in 10 days) but you also have to take creatine during this time for maintaining lean muscle mass.
