Can you people criticize my diet

[revexrevex]

I decided to really get my diet in order, so today I tried to eat very healthy.... just take a look at this if anything I can fix. I also have a 10 lb bag of proten coming my way, so I will put 3 protein shakes in this meal plan

Meal1: Cup of potatoes, 3 medium sausages, 2 tomatoes

Meal 2: 6 slices of Turkey on 1 slice of black bread

Meal 3: (postworkout): Cup of potatoes, salmon + smoked ham + turkey on 2 slices of black bread

Meal 4: Bowl of fruit with 4 slices of Turkey, Oatmeal Cookie

Meal 5: Can of tuna with 4 slices of Turkey

How does this look?

I would move the fruit and cookie to earlier in the day, maybe even post workout. How many cals a day is that?

 

[revexrevex]

I am guessing about 3000.. it is pretty hard to track because of no Nutrition breakdown on most of these foods. I am 210 lbs right now.

So thats like 14 or 15 cals per pound of body weight. I think you might have to go higher than that if you are trying to put on mass.

Hmm.. right now I am just trying to change body composition, loose a little fat with this low-med carb diet while still gaining strength and little mass. I figure if I introduce 3 protein shakes, 40 grams each.... that will be 120 * 4 = ~500 additional calories a day it will increase my calorie intake.

Rev, if you throw some more lunchmeat in there, and get rid of carbs, you will have a great bulk diet, LOL.

If you've got an unlimited budget (due to eating lots of meat), given your goals...

- 6 meals a day (5 + shake on workout days)
- Unlimited meat, fish and eggs
- Unlimited greens leafy vegetables
- 60g carb/30g protein post-workout shake
- Gallons of water
- Vitamin C/Multi-vitamin

That is it. Its not entirely perfect health-wise, but it would suit your goals right now.

Seriously, I'd love to eat like that. Not entirely practical, but it would kick ass...

That should be ok, I thought you were including the pretein shakes in the other calorie total.

the fat in your postworkout meal will slow down protein absorbtion,

the lunchmeat has a lot of sodium, and while its good to have it post w/o it causes water retention so that amount may not be ideal if youre trying to get a little slimmer,

switch the bowl of fruit and the post w/o black bread,

replace the potatoes in the morning with old fashioned oatmeal and a banana

Did you check Fitday.com for nutritional breakdowns? Also, if you are getting deli turkey and not packaged turkey, ask the deli people what the nutritional content is, it should be on there. Most people guess on what they are taking in calorie wise, but really are way off. Try to figure it out if you can because you might be way over or way under.
