Hi, I'm new to this board and I was just looking for some advice re: my diet. I've spent a couple of weeks reading and studying to make myself a meal plan and I was just looking for some feedback on it. I'm 5'4, 135 pounds, I weight train 4X a week with a trainer and am going to be doing cardio 5-6 days a week in a.m. on empty stomach for 45-60 min. I'm looking to drop about 15 pounds. This is what I came up with:
7:30 a.m. cardio 45-60 min. on empty stomach
Meal #1 8:45-9:00
1 scoop whey protien mixed in water
1/2 banana
1/3 cup oats
Meal #2 - 12:00-12:30
1 chicken breast, boneless, skinless
1/2 cup 1% cottage cheese
1 cup asparagus, spinach or green beans
Meal #3 3:30-4:00
1 cup fat free sugar free yoghurt
1/2 cup berries
Meal #4 - 6:30 -7:00
1 boneless, skinless chicken breast
1/2 cup brown or wild rice
1 cup spinach
1/4 cup cashews or almonds
WEIGHT TRAINING - 9:00
MEAL #5 10:15 -10:30 (when I get home from gym)
1 Scoop whey protien
1/2 banana
1/3 cup oats
11:00 bedtime
Please feel free to comment or make suggestions on anything I can improve, I would really appreciate any advice positve or negative.
