I am looking for any suggestions on a diet i have currently been eating 4 egg whites and one slice of whole grain toast dry. meal 2) 50 grams of whey protein and water. meal 3) 1 to 2 cans of tuna and salad with balsamic vinager. meal 4) 6 oz low carb yogurt and 50 grms of whey. meal 5) 8 oz of beef chix or fish and veggies and one piece of fruit with aminos before bed.. if anyone can help me out i am trying to drop at least 40 to 45lbs by summer
 
Are you really keeping to that diet? And for how Long? You need more calories. Dont make a diet that you wont be able to stick to for an extended period of time. 240 30% you need to start exercising and lifting to turn that fat into muscle. 1.5-2g of protien per pound of body fat. Hope it helps.

any suggestions or calorie amounts i should be getting per day??
 
Thats a good question. I am also a fat ass at 5 8' 200 lbs and 20% But I eat real shitty. I think its all about what you eat more then how much. I would say around 2300-3000. Tommarow I will start my diet too. All wheat, non processed, red meat. My buddy did it and he wieghed about 280 at 6'2 and is already at 250 within 2 months or just working out and eating right. Its all about YOUR body. Luckily I am one that can eat pretty shitty and keep reasonable ( By a average joe, not the BBs on here :) ) Just EXERCISE intesnse, eat 6 meals a day of clean healthy food. And you should be fine by summer. Good luck. I know ill need it!

at 240 lbs. you should be taking in around 2800-2900 calories/day. Your diet seems to contain around 1200 calories.

Please refer to my post about starvation in this thread for further information:

Your diet is hardly optimal. You are depriving yourself of calories. Keep it at around 10-12x bodyweight in calories, minimal. If you exercise often, then raising your calorie intake is ideal. Try no to lose more that 2lbs weekly.
 
I hope it doesn't seem like I'm hijacking this thread, but I always hear to eat 1.5 - 2 grams of protien per pound of body weight. Is that LBM or total body weight w/fat included?
