Critique Cutting Diet

[azod]

I am on my 4th day of my cutting diet. Any comments or suggestions would greatly be appreciated.
I am trying to keep it as close as possible to 50 grams of carbs on training days and closer to 25 grams on non-training days.


meal 1: 6-8oz london broil (6am)
2 large eggs
2 strips of beacon

meal2: 3 serving whey protein (8:30 am)
2 tablespoons flax oil

meal3: 3 serving whey protein (10:30 am)
2 tablespoons flax oil

meal4: 6-8oz london broil (12:30 pm)
1-2 cups veggies

meal5: 3 servings whey protein (2:30 pm)
2 tablespoons flax oil

meal 6: 1 can chicken breast ( or 2 cans tuna) (5pm)
2 tablespoons real mayo
1 cup veggies

*** 3 servings whey protein (Postwork out)
w/ 10oz oj


meal6: 6-8oz london broil (Bed time)
1-2 cups veggies

I will be substituting the london broil with 4-5 oz salmon or 5oz roast beef.

Biggest thing I see wrong with this diet is way too many protein shakes. Use real food, use whey protein as it was meant to be, a supplement. Replace shakes with tuna, chicken, turkey, and green veggies, and possible some brown rice in one of those meals.

certainly cut out the powders and red meat and eat fish or turkey instead

hey diamond, why don't you use this statement as your signature...save yourself some typing.

The thing is that I have your typical 8-5, so sitting down to eat every 2 hours would probably not be accepted. I can usually drink a shake and 2 tablespoons of flax oil within a very short period of time. I am basically following krumcakes diet plan.

I am feeling very drained (exhausted), will I get used to this or is this what comes along when you cut out most of your carbs?

 

[diamonddiceclay]

since you have so many shakes and so little food, it's natural that you'd be drained

haha, yeah that was a good one, you should have seen his response to monstars it came down to him not having ne info to support it so he said "i dont know,i see ribose in a lot of stuff ppl are taking" anyways i wouldnt change the london broil cuz it looks like ur trying to follow a diet similar to crums, so you want fats dont you, but i would get some more real foods and only have the whey postworkout, also if you want shakes other than postworkout a casein would be better than whey.

if you feel tired take a multivitamin..see if that helps. also take glutimine after your workouts.
remember that some people work better with a high pro fat diet than others...your body will drop fat, but this will be a quick fix diet..not lifestyle

I am going to try an add an extra meal instead of one of the shakes. I am currently taking a multi-vitamin, but yesterday was the worste day. I was extremely exhausted. Though I have dropped about 6 lbs and have lost very little strength I don't feel as if I am responding real well to this diet. My mouth is always dry though I drink about a gallon of water per day. I will probable try and stick with 100 - 150 grams carbs per day instead of the 50 grams.
