Diet check: Need less fats? Good enough as is ? ughhh... trying to cut

[burnthiscorpse]

**** Please note fat content changes below. I made a mistake initially****

So I started a strict cut diet monday. Not a competitor just need to get the BF% down before next cycle. Well...maybe not a balls to the wall cutting diet but clean. No spices, sugars, dairy ect . I know there are more carbs in here than would be ideal most likely. I plugged all my numbers into Fitday and this is what I came up with....this is an average day. I have no issues eating the same thing over and over.
6'0" 239 apx 18-19%. This is a guess, I am holding a little love handle area fat, some lower belly(not much), and some bothersome bottom/side pec fat. Shoulders are lean, have veins in my delts, arms are pretty lean, have bicep veins under my tattoos, see top 4 ab outlines so its hard to estimate. I know I could easily drop 15 lb of water and fat.

This is my routine:

(150mg test C cruising, TB500 6 week load just finished, now on 1x month)

100mcg Ipamorelin and 50mcg T4 right after waking up. wait 1hr before eating(will be adding 30-40 min cardio to fill this fasted hour in a couple days)

Meal 1 : 1 cup liquid egg whites/ 1 scoop whey/ 1 cup unsweetened almond milk/ 1 cup raw oats

**( take D3, C, E, large B complex, 3g flax oil, Cranberry extract, Lipid stabil, 3 unleashed)

Meal 2 : 7 oz grilled chicken breast

Meal 3 : 7 oz grilled chicken / 1 cup raw oats mixed with 1/4 cup choc almond milk (5g sugars)

Gym (usually here or after meal 4) ( sip on 10 g BCAA and 40 g carbs)

Meal 4 : PWO shake, 60g Hydro Whey(in water), 10 g BCAA

Meal 5 (hour after PWO shake) : 9oz grilled chicken 1 cup oats mixed w/ 1/4 cup almond milk (5.5g sugars)

**( take C, E, D3, B complex, 3g flax oil, cranberry extract)

Meal 6 : 7 oz grilled chicken.

Wait 60-90 min post meal 6, pin 100mcg Ipamorelin and go to bed.

*****************************************************************

You will notice there are no veggies in there. Thats because I cant stand the taste of veggies. Sorry kids. Substitutions are made on proteins, such as salmon, red meat, tuna ect. Carb substitutions could be quinoa, rice, red potatoes(not often on potatoes)ect...
I know eating veggies and sweet potatoes would help, but sorry no can do. I also know red meat and salmon arent cutting food. Usually the most frequent sub would be salmon on maybe 3-5 meals a week. I love salmon, I would eat it every day if price permitted.

Here is what fit day tells me on the above posted sample day NOT including apx 20g sugars from almond milk:

Total Calories: 2798

Fat: 45g (396.5 fat cals)

Carbs: 162.8 (671 carb calories)

Protein: 413.5 (1701 protein calories)

Its not a true "cutting" diet in the least. I'd say carbs are 60g too high and fat is at least 30 g too high. Based on estimated LBM im actually 400-500 cals surplus. I know I'm kinda answering my own questions here and at this diet I'll accomplish more recomp than straight cut. But I wanted input anyways. Only 3 days in, still dialing in.

The ratio is 61/24/14 (pro/carb/fat)

have you tried bitter 'fruits' like cucumbers, tomatoes.. and root based veggies like beets, carrots, radishes?

My wifes homemade tomato sauce is the shit. But its obviously got some sugar in it. I know thats not "tomatoes" obviously. I dont like them sliced or however. My wife just harvested all our cucumbers that she grew and a tried a slice and it was instant gag reflex. Plus the taste stayed in my mouth forever.
I wish I could stomach sweet potatoes. I really really wish I could do brocolli. that would be the one thing.

Any suggestions on making broccoli taste the best possible? Cold and raw? Steamed then chilled? Steamed then room temp or hot?


EDIT: as for a BF% estimate, my avitar is old. But I am almost that size but leaner in my stomach.

I should also add that workout is changed to 5x20.

So each excercise is 5 sets of 20 reps (or working in that direction if not there yet) Lighter weight obviously.
Point being theres an assload of cardio during workout too.

Depends how low you wanna get. Imho id drop t4 run albuteral or some igf or somthing. If you diet rite your motab will sky rocket. How about n2slin or forskilin is good too.

Id drop flax as it can turn in to estrogen not good if you on cycle. Yea, ud prob have to take about but why risk it again better stuff out there imo like krill oil.

Lastly fasted cardio is a big debate. But from what I know this is how your body works. It burns carbs, fats, then muscle! You want to preserve that right?

Anther theroy is that from lifting weights your body will then go into gyclogen stores which is why I recommend cardio last.

Also I have a protien shake before gym. I would take bcaas before or during gym time when your blood is flowing.

I beieve there is a reason that dylan eats at a certai. Time at the gym if i remember rite.

I feel that your fine with 60-120 carbs just remember carbs turn into sugar so depends how your body burns that. That why id take n2slin some cla and rla

Keep us posted bro

The T4 is in there in a small amount for its synergy with growth hormone. NOT because I think its going to help me burn fat. T4 increases the effects of GH. I would run t3 for fat loss if I were going that route but I would never run t3 for any reason. T4 is a totally different animal when applied to anything GH related.
I have considered N2slin. But I am going to run the real thing on the back half (4weeks) of this coming cycle. This is why I'm getting in the habit of having them pwo. I will also have them pre and intra w/o while on cycle.
The fasted cardio is basically just to fill the time I'm waiting for the ipam to do its thing without stepping on its toes. But fasted or not its a good time to get my cardio in. I will also be starting pwo cardio too this week. 25 min.

I seem didn't know you we're on GH. Thought it was for weight loss. Well am excited to follow bro good luck go kill that shit

I'm not bro. Just ipamorelin twice daily. Have been for almost 3 months. That's why only a small amount of t4 to go with the two large gh spikes daily. If I were actually using 4 or more iu of hgh I would have tapered up to apx 150mcg of t4 daily. But either way I'm still getting the effects of hgh/t4 just on a lesser scale.
I can say that I now have to shave my head every 48hrs instead of 72hrs. My finite length hair (arms, legs) has grown like 1/3 longer. I can definatley see the difference it makes after a few months of consistant use. Plus it doesn't try to give me diabetes like ghrp-2 did.
