Meal 1: 2 eggs, 2 slices ezekiel bread, chicken or turkey breast, 1/2 cup ff cottage cheese(420 calories, 28 grams carbs, 53 grams protein)
Meal 2: protein shake( 220 cals, 20 grams carbs, 32 grams protein)
Meal 3: 2 cans tuna, veggies, 1/2 cup ff cottage cheese( 455 calories, 4 grams carbs, 78 grams protein)
Meal 4: same as meal 2
Meal 5: lean meat, 1/2 cup ff cottage cheese, salad with lite ranch dressing( 600 calories, 12 carbs, 50 grams protein approx.)
My last meal has a large amount of fat from the meat, depending on what it is. I thought the fat in meal 5 would be good to keep me full the rest of the night. I am not hittting the weights yet as I am seeing what my maintainence calories are without much exercise and it seems it is 2,000. I am losing steadily as I am at 37 3/4 inch waist right now without much exercise due to a sprained ankle. I should be in the gym tomorrow for a weigt session of 30 minutes tops. These calories I have figured out are estimates. I all comes out to a little under 2,000 or 2,000. My key is controlling appetite now because I don't want to get back to where I was before.
