So I have a quick question about my diet. I finally decided to clean it up and I need to know if I am eating enough. I’m 6-3, 190. Im trying to lose a little fat around the belly so my abs show, while also putting on lbs of muscle. Im doing a starting strength type of program but without the shoulder presses because I have a shoulder that is getting surgery in September.
Diet
Morning 630am
Oatmeal
2 cups of 2% milk.
Lunch 1130am
2 hamburger patties(where I work…)
1 cup 2% milk from work
330pm
Cottage Cheese
Protein Shake w/berries
Dinner 7pm
8 oz Chicken Breast
Cottage Cheese
2 cups of 2% Milk
9pm
Protein Shake w/berries
This all works out to 2600 calories, 90g of fat, 254g carbs, 227g of protein.
Am I eating enough?
Anything you would suggest changing?
I was taking HOT-ROX to try to get some belly fat gone, is that a good idea?
from my reading… not enough calories, bring in some more healthy fats from nuts, oils, avocadoes etc, try searching on here for calorie needs on a diet and adjust accordingly.
i heard HOT-ROX is good, whats your training like?
IMO i think it wouldnt be a bad idea to use Berardi’s massive eating diet, with that your fat would go down as a result of just correct clean eating, train full body and do some HIIT 2-3 times a week, cos at your weight… like me you prob cant afford to diet just yet.
besides dieting now will make you super skinny at 6-3 and knowing you wont progress during therapy after your surgery, so eat and get lean and big
Not bad, you need more total intake possibly. Id add protein in the morning of some sort on top of you milk thats not enough, you also have a near complete lack of veggies and fruit, eat some, add some more fats, olive oil and a fish oil/efa supplement, nuts maybe a few eggs
