Hi,
I run track at an university and compete in the 800 meter run. I'm in the middle of my season and am looking to shed some pounds. I recently had a dexa and it said i have 11.2 BF%, which is too much. I want to lose fat and become more toned or cut. I weigh 158 and am 5'10. I lift 3 days a week, only upper body, and run (hard) intervals 4 times a week, with the other 3 being easy 6-9 miles and 1 day off. Adds up to 40-45 Miles per week.
I am going to start a diet.
Meal 1- 3 eggs w/ .5 C of Oatmeal w/ skim milk
Meal 2-Protein Shake- Whey protein w/ skim milk
Meal 3- Raw carrots and celery, Tuna and Cottage cheese
Practice
Meal 4- Fruit+ whey blended, and whole wheat bread w/ Natural PB.
Lifting
Meal 5-Chicken Breast, veggies, and .5 C rice
Meal 6- cottage cheese and fat free yogurt
I was also wondering if i should take a fat burner such as Hydroxycut or Lipo 6. I also drink plenty of water during the day and also during meals.
Let me know if this is a good diet and won't harm my running or racing at all. I will also substitute spaghetti in before race days. Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
