    Meal A
    2 x Brown Bread
    3 x Egg White
    1 x Protein Shake
    1 x Flax Oil
    1 x Vitamin C tablet

    Meal B (pre workout)
    1 x Banana
    1 x Vitamin C tablet
    0.5 x Tuna Can

    Meal C (post workout)
    1 x Protein Shake
    1 x Dextrose Carb Drink (80g)
    1 x Cup of Green Veg
    1 x Flax Oil
    1 x Banana

    Meal D
    1 x Chicken Breast
    1 x Multi Vitamin
    2 x Brown Bread

    Meal E
    0.5 x Tuna Can
    1 x Cup of Green Veg

    Meal F
    1 x Protein Shake
    1 x Flax Oil
    1 x Calcium Tablet
    1 x Vitamin C Tablet

    Totals:
    Calories: 1953
    Protein: 143g
    Carbs: 228g
    Fat: 25g
    Fibre: Unsure

    Note that this diet is for weight training days.
    On non-weight training days I will be removing the dextrose carb drink and a Banana putting my total calories down to 1600 and the Carbs to 120g.

    I'm aiming for 40% Protein / 30% Carbs / 30% Fat on non weight training.

    I'll be doing cardio 3 x a week in the morning using Xenadrine Fat Burner, and also be using Whole Psyllium Husks as a fibre supplement when I figure out how much to take.

    Aswell as that I'll be taking Green Tea Extract throughout the day.

    I'm 5'7, 140lb and at 23%+ BF. I've been advised to lose the excess weight before I start mass gain as I'll get too fat in some areas.

    I'm a beginner so please hit me with any feedback that you can!

    Are you cutting or bulking? Doesnt seem enough cals in there to be honest. I would add in a hand full of nuts in Meal B and E. Also what are the timings of these meals? Well spread? Also whats your bodyweight?

    Cutting mate, i've a pretty huge gut that I want to get rid off first.

    140lb, using calipers I come at 23% BF, I want to get it down below 15% atleast before I start bulking.

    Timings are: Meal A @ 8am, every meal after is 3 hours apart.

    I know you say you have a stomach but, im not really sure you need to cut. You are only 140lbs. There isnt much to cut.

    I would throw in more cals and start hitting the weights. You will probably lose the gut naturally along the way. Plus, if you build up your chest and shoulder area, it wont look like your stomach sticks out so much!

    Get up to 160/ 170lbs using a good clean diet, then maybe think about adding in the cardio and attempting a small cut.

    What are your training goals, by the way?

    Well my goals were to lose the excess fat, then bulk and get a better than average build, and obviously to become more fitter and stronger.

    I dont want to become really big like bodybuilder type.

    I was hoping to lose the gut as fast as I can and the other excess fat, and hopefully put on muscle aswell at the same time, I know it can be done if I train hard / eat proper.

    Any other suggestions on the diet sheet?
