What is the macronutrient breakdown and how many calories are you totalling?
At a first glance it looks like not enough food.

 

[anthrax]

You need to take more omega 3s (fish or flax seed oil)

Primrose oil is NOT a substitute to those oils

not exactly certain the break downs,prob 60 pro,30carb,10 fat or somewhere in that ballpark and id figure 1500-1700 cals

I agree about more efa's,just gotta pick some up,I actually have gained weight in the last week but look leaner,so somethings working,and Im not certain I should add more food or back the cardio down some

I agree with not enough cal. Are you staying full throughout the day? Switch to a multi grain bread, more fiber. Eat more veggies and spread them out throughout the day. What about good ole H2O. Are you drinking any. How about digestive enzymes? The posted diet is an allright start but definetly needs tweeking.

 

[theoak01]

Ive adapted fairly quick to the low cals and am comfortable until its time to eat again,multi grain bread sounds good,I will also throw in a cup or two more of veggies
and I am drinking about 1-2 gallons a day depending on if I train that day or not

thanks for the help guys,Ive never been good with this cutting thing

 

[Millie]

How long have you been doing this for and what is your current weight?
1500-1700 cals seems low, so you might have to increase that.

Other than that, here are a few comments on what you have posted:
- hope you are eating brown rice with meals 2 and 3
- i suggest you avoid starchy carbs in the evening, so make meal 5 more like meal 4
- like Anthrax said, you definitely need more EFA's

If you are getting that many calories, it is from that sandwich. I would say probably do something else, like ground turkey and you will be able to add one or two meals. Do the math though to make sure the numbers you are working with. Calorieking.com or nutriondata.com are good websites to see what you're taking in as far as calories, carbs and protein. I wouldn't go too much below 1300 calories to cut without getting catabolic.
