Hi, i'm 29 years old, 5'10 and 250pounds. My goal is to lose 30-40 pounds in the next 5 months. I already in another post describe my diest nutrition and that i go 5 rimes a week to the gym and do about 25 min cardio everytime.

Here i want you please to help me improve my food shedule for a workout and non-workout day. So, today i too a day off to relax and recover and here is what i ate the whole day :

wake up 12:pm (worked very late but had my 7hours of sleep)
2 whole eggs + 3 white eggs
1 pita bread (120 cal)

3:pm
1/2 canned of white tuna
1/2 avocado
1 cup of corn
1 tbsp of fat free mayo
+ brown rice

6:pm
1/2 canned of white tuna
1/2 avocado
1 cup of corn
1 tbsp of fat free mayo

9:pm
1 full canned of white tuna
1/2 avocado
1 cup of corn
1 tbsp of fat free mayo

12:am
protein shake
1 plan yogourt fat free

Went to sleep

Of course, just today i ate tuna, but i swap a lot also tuna for chicken, and sometime red meat, but most of the time it is tuna.

What do you think ?

Thanks to all of you again.

Why are you trying to differentiate between lifting and non-lifting days?

I Think Starvation is what your doing and eventually your body will force you to eat more and then your going to go overboard!

I bet by this diet your lifting days isn't much more as you should eat the same everyday with the exceptions of the days you eat over which we all do as we have to!

The key to diet isn't starvation it's consuming in allot of non wasted calories (Foods Full of Nutrients) but keeping it around your maintenance levels.

1/2 cans of tuna WTF!

Your meals should be ranging from 500 to 700 or even 900 calories each!

120 Calories is a SNACK not a meal!

Your 250 pounds and should start with a 2500 calorie intake per day and stick with it for 2 weeks then if your results show no loss or even a gain you lower it from there but 100 to 200 calories!

I had to have taken you almost 4000 or more a day to be 250 pounds at 5"10 as I taken this as your not full of muscles since you need to drop 30 to 40 pounds!

I really appreciate your advice guys. I know its not a lot but im just scared to gain weight by eating more. Since im going 5 times a week to the gym and do about 30 min cardio everytime, i will separate my food in the day and be sure to have at least my 2500 calories.

Ill try that for a week or 2 and be back to talk to you about the results.

Thanks gain evrybody. it is helping me a lot. :)

Eating too little ruins your metabolism and keep you fat as it burns your muscles away!

Trust me I did that a few times!
