Honeslty, the diet isn't too bad for someone who wants to drop some serious weight, Just answer me this, you are 6'2....why do you want to weigh 170?

I would move the milk to the pre-workout meal.

Most people add dextrose (or maltodextrin, or if you're strange like me, honey) to your post-workout shake. You muscles are insulin sensitive after working out and the increase in carbs (high gi mind you) will help increase the rate that the protein is absorbed, inducing faster muscle repair. I take my protein amount in the shake, and then take about %45 of that and that's the amount of carbs I add to the PWO shake.

Thanks alot Jkurz and Brandon I really appreciate it. I'm 6ft I didnt mean to type 6 2 in the other thread. I want to get to 170 because right now I have a pretty high body fat. I'm planning on losing it before I try and bulk.

You don't think i'll lose too much muscle on this do you?

Don't limit Green Veggies. You need mroe of them in your diet. They provide vitamins, minerals and fiber. Also, they help fill you up.

Brocolli has so few calories....don't limit it to 1 cup.
