we need to know your macros first...

but by the looks of it i see that you need more fats in your diet and possibly more protein.

.4-.5 grams of fat per lb body weight
1.0-1.5 grams protein per lb body weight
and the rest dont necessarily have to be ALL carbs but you can sub. carbs for extra fats or proteins

I'm on point with my protein intake, the fat I may fall a little short I usually get fats from meals 2,4 and 6 and I eat avocados daily, its kinda hard though being I don't eat red meat and chicken, like when I was when still playing fball. The whey protein I drink 3servings after work out, 15 egg whites in the a.m, cup of cottage cheese with 3 tbsp p.b....meal 1 and 3 is mostly negative calories but I've been eating 5fruits to start my day for awhile now, right after I get a feeling like I just drank a gallon of red bull. The only supplemnts I use is the protein and a multi, back in the day I took the whole arsenal of supplements , now I like to keep it simple.

Another question I meant to ask.....I've heard both good and bad about canned tuna, some say any more the a can a week can be harmful and other people I know, including myself eat it almost daily. Any input on this?

1. no such thing as negative calories
2. you need fat-->eat more of them
3. a can of chunk light a day is fine at your size

[bigjoe70]

What I meant by negative calories is that I burn more calories breaking down the calories being consumed (If this makes sense how I'm wording it, but I know what I'm trying to say)
