You're going to want to keep your protein high always, so subtract from fat any calories you want to dedicate to carbs. For example on low carb days, you'll have high fat and high protein. On moderate and high carb days you'll have low or moderate fat. Make sure you're still hitting your minimum requirements for fats though, even on high carb days (about .35-4g/lb bodyweight minimum).

Your caloric intake is catastrophically low.
See: http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showth...#post436716771
Don't.
Just learn the basics and start with a rational diet.

When i say 0 CHO i mean everything else baar.. vegi's and any trace.
This is how i calculated these numbers..
Protein = 1.5g per lb of bodyweight every day regardless of CHO intake
Fat = 40-50g rough intake as a static daily figure, day in day out
Carbs = 1.5-1.75g per lb on high days, around 0.75-1g per lb on low days and no CHO on no CHO days (if you hadn’t guessed that)
So for our 200lb man, what does this look like?
High CHO days
Protein = 300g and 1200 calories (4 calories per gram)
Carbs = 300g and 1200 calories (4 calories per gram)
Fat = 50g and 450 calories (9 calories per gram)
Total intake = 2850
Low CHO days
Protein = 300g and 1200 calories
Carbs = 150g and 600 calories
Fat = 50g and 450 calories
Total intake = 2250
No CHO days
Protein = 300g and 1200 calories
Carbs = N/A
Fat = 50g and 450 calories
Total intake = 1650 (a little more for additional CHO from fibrous veg, whey etc)
These numbers, and we know how much bodybuilders and dieter love numbers, are then put into the following days. 2 high, 3 low and 2 no CHO days in the week, structured in a cyclical manner and not blocked together
As a TWI (total weekly intake) that equates to 15750 calories which in turn breaks down to an average of 2250 calories ED (every day)
Assuming the 200lb gent has a maintenance of 3000 calories ED this then put us in a negative figure of 750 calories for the day, 5250 calories for a week and in terms of weight loss 1.5lbs
So average Joe at 200lb has an intake of around 11 x his body weight. Cutting figures are generally based around 10-12 whilst maintenance comes at around 14-15. For ease of use, these fit in nicely with the suggestions made. As much as I hate ratios based on bodyweight alone, why the heck not add one to make things that little bit simpler for you.☆☆☆υк ¢яєω☆☆☆

Arrr..so based on that link (which i did check out before, but ended up using the other)
My Daily Cals 2770.. I train just over 10hrs a week.. so this comes under athlete..can't be right i bulked on just under 3000.
Cals based on sitting on my ass all day office and gym 3-5days.. works out 2100.. seems a little more reasonable for me for losing
P - 187g
F - 77g
C - 164g
2100cals.. x 7 days = 14700
My previous calc = 1645 x 7 = 11520
DOoo.. 3180 Wk short
Thanks repped.☆☆☆υк ¢яєω☆☆☆
