I was hoping that I might be able to get a few opinions on my diet. I am very overweight and trying to lose weight in a healthy fashion.
5'9", 310lbs ~27-30% bf
I have tried ketogenic dieting in the past with little/moderate results. After I lose the initial water weight I lose very little with calories ~2500 and 3 days of cardio and 3 days of weight training. I have a feeling this might have to do with a decrease in my thyoid output as I am always cold. However I was able to get better control of my blood glucose with ketogenic dieting, but I never had the energy to have a really intense workout.
A little background: I have been diagnosed with prediabeties/insulin resistance and high cholesterol. While ketogenic dieting allowed me better control of these factors it did not produce the weight loss I had hoped, nor did it provide me with the increased energy.
Meal 1:
10oz protein powder, 60grams whey protein, 1 oz almonds
Meal 2:
6oz chicken, 1 cup blackeyed peas, 1 cup green beans, 1 oz almonds
Meal 3:
6oz chicken, 1 cup lentils with green onions and bell peppers
Meal 4:
6oz chicken, 1 cup pinto beans and red onions, 1 oz almonds
Meal 5: (Post Workout)
6oz chicken, 1 cup brown rice, 1 cup broccoli
Macros:
250g Pro(45%)/190g carbs - 50g fiber (25%)/ 75g fat(35%)
~2300 cals
I would appreciate any suggestions or ideas, I have considered hiring Bobo for help but he isn't currently taking clients.
