Gender:  | Sounds good. I think your macros are off. I think it's good to try to stay between 40/30/30 & 50/30/20 (pro/carb/fat). I especially try to keep carbs & fats lower when cutting. Probably 40% of your calories are coming from fat. |

Gender: | That's a lot of milk that I think you need to cut out and add more fat from E V Olive oil, fish oil and nuts. I would stay with the % break down but switch carbs and fat so it's 50/20/30 (pro/carb/fat), I like lowering the carbs becuase of the insulin spike one might get from carbs, keeping them low and fat a little higher does help this a little. also how many cals. are you taking now? |
