    First time meal plan help?

    Macros; Energy (Kcal): 3395, Pro(g): 322, Fat(g): 52.2, Net carbs(g): 423

    6'3" 175lbs... aprox bodyfat-13%. I run 5 miles every morning, hit the gym with compound lifts 3 days a week, and do HIIT on the stationary bike 3 days a week too. I'm looking to loose some body fat and either maintain overall weight or loose a little. Gaining mass isn't quite an option for various athletic reasons. Here's my first meal plan that I've put together (I've always planned my exercise but never analyzed my diet the same way, that's why I'm here):

    Breakfast: 5 egg whites + 1 whole egg omelet
    1 cup oatmeal
    2 scoops whey+ banana

    Meal 2: 1 cup dry brown rice+ quinoa

    Meal 3: 2 cups oatmeal

    Meal 4: 8oz chicken breast+ 1 sweet potato

    Pre: 2 scoops whey+ banana
    Post: 2 scoops whey+ banana, one large orange

    Meal 5: 1 cup greek yogurt

    In addition I take a multivitamin and supplement with glutamine each morning.

    So, what do you guys think? Worth a try?

    Cut protein in half. There's not really any need for over 1g per pound of bodyweight unless you just like eating protein. Up your fats. They're important for hormone production, general health, and satiety. Then allocate whatever calories you have left over to whatever macro combination that you desire.

    This thread can help you get a solid diet started for your goals. --> http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showth...hp?t=121703981
    Like success, failure is many things to many people. With a positive mental attitude, failure is a learning experience, a rung on the ladder, a plateau at which to get your thoughts in order and prepare to try again. - W. Clement Stone
