Hey CC -- I'm just gonna throw in a couple suggestions - I'm trying to do some "work" for work tomorrow so I dont' have time to check all the calories
- First check the total cals & total % of protein / carbs / fats to see what they are. Make sure you're getting enough of the right things, then maybe adjust the %s. My following suggestions are made not looking at the %s but looking for possible culprits in the diet.
- Meal 1 is great - can't go wrong w/ oatmeal. For variety you may want to occassionally do some egg whites instead of protein mix.
- Meal 2 - maybe toss the yogurt - more simple carbs. Also you may be sensitive to dairy? Soy is an alternative.
Meal 3 - you might alternate meal 3 for meal 2 and just do a 2 scoop protein mix for meal 3.
- Meal 4 - looks good
- Meal 6 is good for later in the day - not sure when you train.
In general -- can you get one more meal of food instead of protein mix in there? And how about total fats - maybe throw in some Udo's Choice or some flax oil - can be mixed into the protein mix and/or be used w/ vinegar or mixed into a no cal salad dressing. Many recommend not mixing your fats & carbs - so do the flax w/ your last meal? (Check the Flax Oil posts and maybe more input on this from the other ladies)
Also you might consider doing a 3 on / 1 off schedule or something to ensure that you are not overtraining. With that you can also do a carb rotation with lower carbs on non-training days or cardio only days and higher on training days.
You might also do cardio in the AM on an empty stomach. You can also try interval cardio or longer sessions. What is your training & cardio schedule?
