Soldato
I have been trying on and off for some time now to loose the belly fat I have been carrying since I was a boy.
Neer really got any where dispite my best efforts and plenty of cardio.
My problem is probably the fat I have been trying to lift weights during this time and have been eating to give me energy to lift, which has been undermining my fat lose efforts.
I need some one to help me formulate a healthy diet that will allow me to continue hitting the gym with energy to lift weights, but also enable me to be in a calorie deficit so I can actually lose some fat!!
Plan for the last month has been 3 day split and 4 days cardio.
A general day for me looks like this:
Weights day:
9am. 2 peices of toast (brown or white) butter, banana, cup of semi skimmed milk and 30g of Whey.
2 coffees no sugar.
1.30pm. Lunch. Either a sandwich (chicken ham( from a italian cafe, so the sandwiches are a little healther than the english varieties, or a plate of pasta and chicken breast or I go to a vietnamese restaurant and eat rice/noodles with beef/chicken and salad
6pm. Preweights So far I have been eating a sandwich with a chicken breast.
9pm. Dinner. Fish/steak/chicken potatoes/sweet potatoes or rice with salad or veg.
9.30. Cup of tea and a 0% fat activia yougurt.
---
If cardio day I drop the preweights sandwich.
---
Clearly the above is not putting me in a calorie deficiet as I have been doing loads of cardio work over the last 6 weeks and lost 0% fat.
So how can I clean this up, and still have energy for the gym??
