My diet has been crap for the last few months and I sat down and put together this plan. M-F this is what it will look like.... very little deviation.

Let me know if I am on the right track for cutting fat and keeping muscle.

Some Stats:
Height - 5'11.75" (6' with shoes on )
weight - 232lbs
arms - 17.5 (cold)
bf% - 19-20%
age - 38

Meal 6 is dinner (i am still working on it but will be in the 500-600 cal range) and on days I lift it will be as shown...

On off days meal 5 and 6 will switch and I will do some cardio just before meal 6.

The raisin bran i added some time ago to my diet in order to help keep the pipes clean but not sure if it is a good thing to eat at the end of the day...

post the rest of your meal, you only have meal 6.

yeah, to get an overall idea of ur diet we need at least one full day of what u've eaten. you could also start a log with ur training and diet and we could def help you a lot.

Copy and paste it, or just rewrite it over.

it looks good
i, personally would suggest less cottage cheeze and more tuna/chicken breast/red meat etc.

but from what i see, it looks near perfect

[ibanezman88]

your calories seem too low for the day at your weight

[ibanezman88]

if you're cutting, your protein intake should be much higher than your carbs. if you wanna keep your muscle.
