The ECA I am mid way through week 3.....I will see my results tomorrow morning on weight lose, after week 4 on ECA going 2 weeks off then back on till I get to 200lbs. Started 3.5 weeks ago 215lbs. each shake is 130 cals, 1 g sugar, 23g protein

Made decent gains in strength and lost half inch in waist.

Any ways to improve this diet? Deli meat used because of lack of time to eat at work, these meals vary slightly and can sub shake for REAL food when time requires it.

im not a diet guru but it seems to me that a balanced meal with plenty of carbs and protein should be consumed directly after the workout
as the calories consumed will be used in a preferential basis for muscles only not fat
also not eating directly after a workout prolongs the cortisol action caused by working out, so it is catabolic and since the best weapon against fat is muscle(more muscle means higher metabolism) i would look into this

sorry i cant help more

That's 11 meals!!! What are your goals, bulk up or cut? If your looking to put on quality lean muscle:
--I would switch the milk to H20 in your 1st (preworkout!) meal and add 1/2 cup of raw oats. Or microwave them w/ the protein powder together.
--Have your 2nd meal (postworkout!) RIGHT after your workout! Whey protein and dextross. Chug half of it and sip half (approx. 45 min total.)
--Perhaps your most important meal of the day should take place approx. 1-1 1/2 hours after your workout and your postworkout shake. Example of this meal would be: large chicken breast, brocalli, yams.
--Wait at least 2 hours between meals or shakes!
--Natural peanut butter is an awesome nutrient when on the go! I would add 1-2 tbs w/ all of my shakes
--For your last meal of the night I would suggest cottage cheese and olive oil.
--Stay away from breads and the simple sugars of some fruits if your cutting.
--Eat a ton of fiberous veggies!
--6-7 meals a day is plenty!
--The EF store has some great combo deals to aid in cutting.
Good luck!

I am trying to most likely do the impossible which is add muslce while cutting fat. I have a very slow metabolism. Entire family is fat asses. I do weight training 3 to 4 days a week and cardio 2 to 3 days a week. My line of thinking is control calories, no fats, limited carbs, still present thogh in the wheat bread, control sugar, natural sugar in the apple to keep from hitting ketosis, and lotsa protein to allow for muscle growth. I strill have 15lbs or so to cut off before I hit my goal weight and body fat range. Lost 35lbs in 18 months working at it lb or 2 a month. I DESTROY veggies at night. Like a pound or more of veggies. My problem is portion control so I eat a lot of meals to keep from getting hungry, and the quantity of veggies at night gives me a full feeling till i go to sleep.

Bro u have to decide whether u wanna bulk or cut.. Very few people who most probably are genetic freaks or on AAS that can succeed in doing both...

To bulk: Add red meat (Steaks - I eat upto 3 medium sized steaks when bulking a day)
Chicken breast (I eat upto 2-3 chicken breasts a day while bulking)
eggs ( upto 14 eggwhites and 2 whole eggs a day)
Carbs ( Pasta, rice, Baked potatoes)
Whey protein shakes
