I'm currently trying to come up with a solid nutrition plan for myself. I'm 25, 6' 6" and currently 308lbs, haven't gotten body fat checked but i would estimate 20%. Ive been training for 4 years and have never actually went by a set nutrition guide line or really cooked my own food. I believe just cleaning my diet up for the time being instead of eating processed foods and fast foods will benefit me more than diving into a fat loss diet. I should slim up from changing my eating habits, but i would like to design a eating plan out with the correct protein,carb, and fat requirements i need. So i have a few questions and would rely like your help to answer them or any other input you might have.
I mainly need help figuring out how to setup my nutrition plan not the actual food content and such. These are just a few question that have me stumped.
1) I found a link to a calculator on bb.com i was going to use to calculate my macro requirments based on weight, age,height, and bodyfat percentage but seems i dont have priveladges to post urls yet.. wtf :FUfinger: If anyone knows what im talking about do comment.
2) What calculation must be made to figure out what is needed for myself? BMR? LBM?
3) Where can i find macro nutrient breakdown for foods by the ounce weights. Everywhere i look i can only find ones that for example list the macros for a single chicken breasts not taking into account the size of it or weight.
3)Any other link or other ways of calculating what my requirements for my body would be?
