Hey everyone okay heres the deal, last year I weighed 230 lbs at 5'10" (177.8cm). I went to college, started dieting and exercising and was able to get down to 175lbs. My goal though is 160 because I notice I still have a lot of fat around my belly etc. I lost the weight pretty quickly but these last 10-15lbs have been very hard and slow. I've been stuck at 175 for 3-4 months now. I was actually able to get down to 165 a month ago but then went on summer break and gained it back. I'm at like 173 right now. Here is my schedule any comments would be appreciated, thanks.
7:30-8:00 Breakfast
Oatmeal
I cut up some strawberries and sprinkle some splenda/cinnamon on it.
10:30 Snack
Apple
Sometimes I skip this because I'm at class during this time and I forget to pack it
12:30 Lunch
2 Sandwiches
Either tuna or turkey depends on what I'm feeling like that day. For desert I usually have another piece of fruit.
1:30 Snack
Protein Bar
Pure Protein is the name of the bar it has 20g of protein 3g net carbs. Are these good for me?
2:00 Workout
I either do Weight Training (M T Th) or Cardio(W F and I try to make Sat. and Sun.)
5:00-5:30 Dinner
2 Chicken Breasts, some vegetables, and for desert another piece of fruit
The bad thing is the vegetables are canned so its usually like corn or canned green beans Anyone know any good alternatives? And also sometimes I break down and eat some bread or rice with my dinner. (hard for me to stay away from carbs sometimes)
I figured my daily intake should be between 2478.4887-2570.276 cal/day. (18 years old, 170lbs, male, fairly active)
So thats pretty much it, any comment is appreciated.
P.S. I consider myself pretty active I do some form of excercise everyday and I have to walk to class 4 times a day for a total of 80 minutes of walking.
