Can someone tell me how much calories I need to consume while dieting? .. that is... per pound of BW. I currently weight about 170.
Reason i'm asking is cuz I just wrote up a diet and I want to know If i'm consuming too much/too little.
Age: 21
170lbs
16% bf (goal is 180/ <12% bf)
Supplements: Green Tea Extract(2caps 2xday)/Thermorexin(3/day)/Sesapure(twice daily)/Multi vitamin in morning/two fish oil caps in morning.
Meal 1 - 8am: 434 Calories/61 protein/30 carb/10 fat
5 eggs (1 whole, 4 white)
1/2 cup oatmeal
Protein Shake
Meal 2 - 11am: 372 calories/69 protein/1 carb/16 fat
Salad w/ 8oz chicken breast
Meal 3 - 2:30pm: 489 calories/66protein/9carb/18 fat
8oz steak w/ cup string beans
Meal 4 - 5:30pm: 428 calories/69 protein/15carb/16 fat
8oz chicken breast
orange
workout 7-9pm
Meal5: PW shake : 180 calories/36protein/4carb/3fat
(should I add more carbs to this?)
Meal 6: 11pm (bedtime) 270 calories/40 protein/7 carbs/11 fat
Protein shake w/ Natty PB
Total: 2172 calories/ 345protein/ 62 carb/ 58 fat
65% 10% 25%
Now this is just a rough draft.. i suppose. Been doing this for two days now. Only problem I can see is that i'm consuming too much protein? and me carb/fat ratio is bad with too much fat? Am i right or wrong?
Any input will be helpful.. thanks.
