10 AM- 2 eggs with 2 pieces of whole wheat bread and 1 glass Orange Juice and 1 flax seed oil gelcap

11:30- 1 Banana and then half hour later I workout

1:00- Protein Shake- 1 Scoop of Whey which I will shortly replace with Egg Protein, 1 Banana and a handful of peanuts.

3:30- Chicken Breast and Brown Rice and a cup of yogurt on the side

6:00- Random vegetables with dip and some cottage cheese

8:30- Chicken or Turkey Sandwich or variation of wrap or some other dish involving them.

I also drink 8 glasses of water a day and stay away from caffeinated beverages.

Is this ok or should I add something to this??
 
Didn't pay any attention to what you wrote....


Don't look at it as a diet....but as a life style. A diet comes and goes. A life style change should be with you for...well....life.:cool:
 
It doesn't appear to be enough food. Also, it doesn't appear you have enough veggies and fruits. It just seems like you're aiming for low calories and eating too little. Also, at night you eat a sandwich? That sounds silly. I say eat a big meal full such as loads of veggies, protein source, etc. You're not going to be eating for the next 10 hours or so, so why let your body starve during that perioud?

Also, breakfast is supposed to be about big, big, big. 2 eggs? That sounds way too little. Remember, you haven't eating for at least 8-10 hours. You need to eat stuff like rolled oats, etc. Get your body ready for the day ahead. And a banana for a pre workout meal? You need to eat something good with protein. Perhaps egg protein if you're running low on time, and egg protein after workout with a cup of milk.

Probably the only decent meal I see would be the brown rice with chicken.

I'm not going to ask for BMR line, calories per meal, etc, since I no longer follow that and I think it's flawed and a tool for the obese.

My "menu" timing is differant then yours. I started eating a bigger lunch a few months back and that has helped me saty full longer, thus eat a smaller portion nearer to dinner time. I also snack less....on fruit and veggies...during the in between times. I guess the bigger lunch works for me, like eating a more full breakfast works for many folks. Amps up the meatabolism and helps you burn at a higher rate.

I would say try it. See how your results(whatever you are going for) come out, and then shift it around a bit to fit your body. That's why I went with the bigger lunch.
