Hello

Wondering if anyone has any fabulous diet/nutrition plans to get me on track with what I should be eating. Want high protein, low carb diet as I will be doing lots of cardio/interval training & light weights over the next 9 weeks.

A typical day looks like this for me:

Breakfast - 1/2 c. oatmeal

Snack - 1 apple & tbsp low fat peanut butter mixed with 3 tbsp greek yogurt

Lunch - 1 can tuna, 1 whole wheat tortilla shell, hummus, 1c. spinach

Snack - green beans & hard boiled egg whites (2)

Dinner - high protein - ie. chicken & lots of veggies & brown rice (1/2 c.)

Post workout (usually around noon or so) - Whey protein shake with Unsweetened Almond Milk & 1 scoop whey protein (choc or vanilla)

Thanks a million!

    So basically I would recommend adding in some protein to your breakfast, maybe cook your oatmeal with milk or if your allergic to dairy, add a plant based protein powder. I also wouldn't bother with reduced fat pb as its around 10 calories difference but the reduced fat pb normally has a bunch of other junk added to it. If you want less fat, you should get pb2 (but honestly fat is good for you, just don't go over board).

    The rest looks like a great well balanced plan
