"Hello,
I trained in college for about 3 years but did not notice much progress. The program I used was a more general one without a specific focus. After that I took about a year off and am getting back into it with a new fervor.

200 lbs
Bodyfat - unknown
I am looking to loose 25 lbs while working towards increasing certain attributes. Specifically, the workout that I am going to be taking up should be geared towards increasing explosive speed in the lower body but also increasing the endurance for entire day use. Also, the upper body portion should also include explosive agility and endurance also for entire day use. The following is a basic outline of a typical diet for me. I know that I need to increase the number of meals but a lot of it is very foreign. I guess I need some ideas on what to include based on what I am wishing to acheive. Any help/questions are appreciated.
Meal 1 - 6:45am
Bowl of cereal (Raisen Bran, Cornflakes, Rice Krispies, etc.) with skim milk.
Sometimes a piece of fruit.
Meal 2 - 1:30pm
Sandwhich on whole weat with some sort of meat (usually ham or turkey).
Piece of fruit
Meal 3 - 5:30pm
This definately varies quite a bit but some commonalities exist. I try to use fresh ingredients or at least frozen if I can't. Meats and poultry are usually a must.

. Currently I know that this is one of my higher intakes. I know I am still way under my numbers but I added more to my diet today. Today I have had 3 meals so far (I plan to have a 4th before I sleep). Before the 4th meal I am at the following according to fitday's site. I am hard up to find high protien and a more defined carb number:
