here's my diet thus far, i am trying to cut a bit while not losing muscle
7am 4 eggs
10 am protein bar
1230 pm grilled chicken salad (no dressing)
330 pm protein bar
6pm 4 meatballs lightly sauced/or strips of london broil/or marinated chicken breast
930 pm milk (with or without whey powder-depending on my appetite)
 
bro, I think you need more food. for breakfast, throw in a serving of oatmeal. That looks like around 1500 cal depending on what sauces you put on your meat. Anyway, just take your LBM x 15 to find your maintenance cal requirement. Then take that LBM and multiply by 12-13 to find out how many cals to ingest to lose 1-2 lb's per week. Remember to add a good multi vit and also fish/flax seed oil for your EFA's. honestly though, you need more food. Also, those protein bars are going to get pricey unless you plan on cutting for like 1 week. Invest in some Protein powder. Keep your protein intake up around 1.3-1.5gms per lb of body weight to preserve lean mass. Cut out carbs after 6pm, and try not to eat large quantities of carbs/fat at the same time. HAve as much of your carbs as possible early in the morn or mid day. Make sure you get some carbs in your PWO shake as well. Oh and get rig of the milk, to many cals. drink water and LOTS of it. I will a sample of my diet so you can get some ideas.
Bottom line is don't starve yourself.
 
my typical day of meals looks something like this:

5:30 am - N-Large (3/4 serving) Shake

9:00 am - Turkey and 4 Egg whites on whole wheat with some tabasco

11:00 am - Low Carb whey Shake, Low Carb Protein Bar

11:45 am - gym

1:00 pm - Low Carb whey Shake, 2 cans tuna (in water) w/ LF mayo, mustard, onion, celery, pickles

3:00 pm - 8 oz grilled chicken, fruit (apple or bananna)

3:30 pm - walk or bike ride, maybe handball, some kinda outdoor activity

6:00 pm - 12 oz steak, 1 medium sweet potato, veggies

8:00 pm - Low Carb whey Shake

ive lost almost 9 lbs, and about 2% bf% in 3 weeks

Its impossible to comment on this without knowing, your stats, height, weight, etc. You also need to list serving sizes. How much chicken in your grilled chicken salad? 4oz or 10oz, it makes a huge difference.

Are you counting calories?

Also, you need to add some efa's to your diet.
 
bro, also are you and endo or meso or ecto? I put on fat like a champ so my daily reqs are going to be much different than a guy of the same weight who struggles to put mass on.
 
22 y/o 5'6" lifting 3 years or so
180lbs around 15-20% bf (all in the midsection)
im trying to do a calorie deficient diet to get to 165lbs....
i don't know the oz. of the chicken but ill check into it next time i buy my tenders
also im in the middle... im not ecto but im def not an endo
 
bro, your stats remind me of me 2 years ago...except your an inch taller..lol... you wanna lose the mid section gut, map out a good diet, keep a food log, and your on the Jersey Shore, you should be doing an hour a day or more of walking, i know its boring, but you do 1 hour every day for 5/6 days and in a monthe or two, that midsection will be gone
