Hi all,
I started dieting about four months ago. Firstly I just swapped over to clean food. Once I got the hang of that, I started dropping carbs and increasing protein. Now that I’ve got the hang of that I want to get a bit more statistical with my diet… (I’ve lost approximately 50lbs by this stage and close to 7" off my waist)
Have a quick look at my diet and let me know if I am having to many cals or fat.
Current Weight: 321lb
BF%: over 50% (too ashamed to get a proper reading)
According to the calculations I have read on various posts…
BMR: 3852 cals (body weight x 12)
I don’t think those cals should apply to me as I have such a high body fat percentage.
I’ve decided to set my cals at 2600 (guesstimation)
Daily menu looks something like this:
Snack (7:00) 30 Almonds
Breakfast (8:30) 3 Eggs & 3 Bacon & Tomato
Snack (11:00) Protein Shake & Skim milk
Lunch (2:00) 90g Salami & 1/2 Avocado
Snack (5:00) 60 Almonds
Dinner (8:30) 250g meat & Spinach/greens
Supplement 6 x Omega 3 capsules
P: 176g / C: 20g / F: 200g
On the 6th day I have a carb up where I believe I’m supposed to eat approx:
P: 176g / C: 700g / F: 70g (assuming LBM to be 70kg)
If all this looks okay, one last question…
What good quality carbo dense food could I eat to try and make up some of those 700g?
Cheers.
