CUTTING DIET... critique plz thanks in advance

[exothermic]

okay this is my 2nd cut... last time i went low carbs right off the bat and this time around im not gona make such a mistake... critique and tell me if i shouuld add anything or take away certain things etc


meal 1= 4scrambled eggs + cheese........... 400 cals/35g protein/20-30g of carbs

meal2= 1tin of tuna + 1slice of whole wheat bread...... 270 cals/31g protein/60g carbs

meal3= 2-3table spoons of white rice + chicken/beef/fish... 400 cals/30 g protein/40g carbs

meal4= milk+ 30grams of quaker oats..... 500 calories/35g protein/60g of carbs( will change to 55g of protein once i receive my protein powder+ 100 cals)

meal5= same as meal 4

in total = 2070 calories/166g protein/250g carbs( will be 206 g of protein and 2270 in a week when my protein powder comes)




i just ordered my 10lb whey protein from bbing.com bigups to your store, so when that comes to me i will be putting 1scoop in there for meal 4 and 5 to add protein and the 100calories it gives me

any constructive criticism and feedback will be much appreciated....

Miscellaneous variables aside (metabolism, cardio, type of work, etc.), my guess would be that the calories you will be taking in once you get your protein will be a bit closer to where you MAY want to be (although, maybe for you 2k cals will be good - hard to say). I would definitely encourage you to add some green vegetables into your meal plan (maybe some broccoli/asparagus/spinach in meals 1 & 3???). Also, if it were me, I would consider adding some fruit to meal 1 with possibly a few more carbs (i.e. 1/2 cup of oats - 27g carbs).

Just my two cents. Best of luck!

Diet seriously lacking nutritional desnity
No fruit or veg or healhty fats? Replace some of the starchier carbs with some. More filling too.

meal 1= 4whites + 2 wholescrambled eggs + cheese + fruit

meal2= 1tin of tuna + large salad + TBSP dressing

meal3= 2servings veg + chicken/beef/fish

meal4= Water Whey + fruit and PB
meal5=Whey + oats + PB

in total = 200g protein, 80g fat, 180-200g carbs
