Hi Guys,
I'm currently around 70kgs, and looking to get back down to 65.5kgs for December 7th. I've done it before on a diet very close to the one outlined below, but wanted to check if the more experienced people here had any pointers on what I've got.
9am:
2xOatibix (or porridge) + skimmed milk + Bananna + Whey Protein Shake
11am:
Almonds + Apple
1pm:
Turkey breast + wholewheat pita break + pear
4pm:
Tin Tuna + Sweetcorn + Olive Oil + Quinoa
Before Training:
Protein Shake
After Training:
Chicken breast (or salmon fillet) + Brocoli
By my calculations that is about:
~1600calories
~150g Carbs
~150g Protein
~30g Fat
The protein shake before training depends on the timing of the session. For instance I've stuck to this for the last 4 days now and on two of those days I have had the protein shake immediately after training and then the chicken breast a couple of hours later.
My main concern is that I am eating the same stuff every day (with the exception of chicken or salmon.) I am taking a decent multivitamin and mineral, but am worried that this is not enough. Any pointers as to if this is unsafe/unhealthy when sustained over a period of 5 weeks? Or should I stop worrying and get on?
Thanks for any help you can give,
Sam,
