Hello all. Back after my first cruise. I must say I dont like time off but thats another topic. I was wondering if I could get some critique on my diet. I have read tons of threads on the subject and tried my best to adjust my diet myself but I feel a bit stagnant.
I started off at 185 in January. Finished the program I was on at the time around the end of February at a new weight of 212. That is when I made the leap to DC and on the first blast I made it up to 221 (mostly lean, dont really notice any difference in BF%) Most of that gain was in the first four weeks of the 8 week blast. After that I seem to have plateau ed for the final four weeks seeing no real gains. My lifts and reps are increasing at the required rate. So Im looking at my nutrition a little closer now.
This is what I follow on a work day:
M1- 5g creatine upon waking, 2 cups oat bran cereal, half cup whole milk, half banana, 1/4 cup blueberries, and six whole eggs
M2-7 1/2 oz chicken breast (boneless/skinless), 200g of red beans, 7 oz white potatoes
M3-7 1/2 oz chicken breast, 200ggreen peas, 7 oz potatoe
Pre workout- 40g whey, 5g creatine, 5g glutemine, 2 cups whole milk
Post workout- 50g whey, 5g creatine, 5g glutemine, half cup whole milk, 1 cup coconut water
M4- 7 1/2 oz chicken breast, 1/4 cup mixed nuts, 150g fresh pineapple
M5- I eat dinner with my family to make my wife and kids happy which is always a healthy mix of whole pastas or brown rice, some sort of lean meat or fish, and various veggies (the only meal I dont plan out but our family is very health conscious)
M6-250g salmon filet
M7- 40g whey, 2 cups whole milk
On top of this I drink 1 1/2 gallons of water every day.
I have a program which breaks down the macros of this plan to a close estimate:
Total Cals 4300
Carps 390
Protien 366
Fats 140
Fibers 56
I would greatly appreciate the blunt criticism Ive come to expect on this forum. I dont feel like this diet plan is very solid.
Thanks for your time and I apologize for the length of the post.
