 looks good to me man. i'm cutting now too. i eat the same thing several times a day tho. making all that food u are seems like a bitch. i'm probly getting in the same amount of protein carbs and fat but from the same shit over and over, i dont count cals either. just have about 50-60 grams of protein (weigh more than u) and about the same amount of carbs and fat. u should do very well if ur training and cardio is done right which i'm sure it is

 Replace the PB with Flax oil and u can add more carbs from yams oatmeal or brown rice. The added carbs will give u more energy and help u hold on to muscle when cutting

noted. I was thinking of adding some more carbs to my pre wo meal...like a bowl of oats or brn rice. The flax seed oil is an excellent idea, if I find I reach a plateau, I will defn drop the pb in favour of flax. I would then have to adjust other areas of my meal plan in order to keep it at a precise 2500 cals. Im using a digital food scale this time around, no eyeballing portion size anymore...always found that I was overly generous with my portioning. 6 oz of chicken is not much at all, and when ur hungry and guessing...6 oz turns to 8 or 10 real easy. on the topic of losing mass, ive increased my test to nearly 1200mg EW and am eating win tabs at 50mg daily...If this doesn't help preserve mass, I don't know what will. I'm probably going to add 50-75 mg tren ace daily in a few weeks. I've got the gear, just going to monitor results and decide whether to use it with this cutter, or add it to my 2009 lean bulker. thanks for the input, everyone.

...the whole point of the cut diet is to avoid the insulin spike. By consuming both low gi carbs, and timing their intake I can minimize it, essentially keeping my metabolism revved up. You can't achieve this by eating fruits. Im on my 2nd day so far, not tired one bit. Hunger is at a minimum. Plus I was getting tired of having to stuff my face every couple hours, literally forfeeding myself. Its a nice break is all im saying, I'm sure after the 9 weeks, i'll be glad to jump back onto a maintenance diet. The combination of foods that I'm eating seem to sit well in my stomach. At first sign of hunger, I can look at the clock and note that I am usually withing 20 minutes of a meal...so its not like im tired or anything, training sessions haven't changed either (so far).

....its easier than I thought it would be. I spent about an hour preparing meats 2 nights ago. Over 2 kg of chicken and 1kg of top sirloin...I have about 2 more days supply which means that I'll have to cook and prep my meats 2 maybe 3 times per wk. The greens are simple. I buy flash frozen greens, weight them up and throw them in tupperware w. already prepped meat for meals while I am away from home. I do this the night before for meals that I will be eating while at work or on the go. Breakfast is straightforward, eggs take 5 mins, the steamed spinach is another 5 or 10 and the chicken is ready, just needs to be heated. Throw some almonds and some grapfruit on the side and I'm done. I can actually see myself working a helluva lot less in the kitchen on this diet than my last bulk. Seems like a lot of work, if I stay on top of prep work I will always have a meal on hand, and at the worst will have to steam veggies once or twice a day (not including my 2 or 3 hours per week of meat grilling marathon).

 PF, are you using Ketostix? i'm assuming you're looking to go into ketosis, but i'm not sure if approx 90g/carbs a day will do that for you. that's pretty close, but i always had to get to around 70g for that to happen. just a suggestion, but otherwise everything looks tight....

When I do leg days, I carb up aka my carb load day, hence i cycle my carbs, and dont think i am gaining fat with fruit anyways. But on nontraining days i consume beans, oatmeal, and healthy fats, and really watch my carbs. But as i am also saying the times when you are gonna wanna cheat, and it will be later on since this is your 2nd day. Well you can eat alot of fruit, 10x better then ice cream, candy and junk food.

not ketosix, cutdiet.com, you can dl the ebook. I've seen Derek aka beast plastered a few forums with it, and I actually tuned into a radio show where him and the doctor who wrote the book laid everything out, the background science mainly and answered a few questions...I don't believe this type of diet puts you into a ketogenic state, but 3 days in...I still feel pretty good. Overall energy is normal, I'm in a bit of a shitty mood at time because I'm craving carbs, that and the unseasoned, plain meals aren't much of a treat. ...but like I said earlier, its all about discipline at this point. Guys like me don't shred up very easily, I always seem to get derailed around the 11% BF mark due to lost stregth and stamina...mind you I have only tried to cut twice, and both times all natural. This time round I've got help
