Meal 1: 1/2 cup *measured dry* Oatmeal, 1 Banana, Handful of Raisins, Dash of cinnamon on the oatmeal
*Go to work (Manual labour (Masonry) outside all day)
Meal 2 (at work): Scoop of whey + banana
Meal 3: 1/2 cup *measured cooked* brown rice, 1 Chicken breast/2 cups veggies
*Meal 3 is eaten at around 1 o'clock ish, giving me 3 more hours of work then straight to the gym*
**Workout**
Post Work-Out: 2 scoops whey + 1 banana
Meal 4: 2 cups veggies/Lean protein *either Tuna/Chicken or 92/8 beef (depends what i have the most of, usually tuna or chicken)*
Meal 5 (Before bedtime): Cottage Cheese/Almonds/Dash of cinnamon

Yes, this is a cut diet.

Looking for your guys opinions on what i should change/modify etc...

Need more protein little less carbs. and some more fat.

Less carbs as in cutting 1 banana from my diet less? or are we talking more than that?

I should note i do use about 1 tbsp of evoo to cook meal 3 and meal 4 in (each, so 2 tbsp total)

add 3-4 whole eggs + an eggwhite for breakfast

get rid of 1 banana (id say post workout)

have 1 pre workout like you've got and add some more protein to your diet.

try to eat at minimal 180 grams a day.

dude if u work outside all day ..i'd probably add some more food to that or keep it the same..and get some more food in there instead of 3 scoops of whey if you can

even if your cutting..don't get rid of any carbs imo


i'd probably go with honestly's suggestion and add some kind of protein to breakfast..or maybe add a tbs of PB to ur oatmeal


and my reason for not getting rid of carbs..is because it spares your protein..if you don't have enough energy..protein gets converted to energy

3 scoops of whey? Burns says he takes 3 scoops of whey... lol.

Yes to add protein to breakfast

(make like 4 to 5 eggs or something).

Okay adding some egg whites to my breakfast, thanks guys

Now, for pre bed snack, Greek yogurt with almonds OR tbsp pb (don't know which ) OR Cottage cheese with almonds OR tbsp pb??

Edit: Both fat free

Cottage cheese is probably > greek yogurt but cottage cheese is nasty. So Greek yogurt imo
