I posted this in the 'ask the pro' section but thought i'd put it to you guys too:

Hi

I wondered what diet tips you could give somebody who is aiming to cut up naturally (i.e. no anabolics, clenbuterol, t3, dnp or whatever).

Supplementation:

Morning:
3 grams BCAAs
3 grams of various omega oils
st john's wort
2 multivits

Before sleep:
BCAAs (in fact, i take these throughout the day)
3 grams of various omegas
1 multivit

occassionally take ECA stack for workout boost.

I should also add, I'm aiming to minimise eating/drinking any product made from milk (hence the soy/egg white protein over whey). My main reason is that it gives a softer look, but generally i get super bloated from milk so i've shifted to soya.

Currently, this is what i'm eating:

Meal 1: soy milk with oats/bran muesli and lots of fruit + nuts + a soy/egg white protein shake

Meal 2: Something like: 1 chicken breast, some brown rice OR whole egg noodles with tuna OR pork/beef/turkey or another meat with salad (lettuce, carrots, egg whites)

Meal 3: Soy/egg white blend shake, or a serving of the above

Meal 4: Same as 2

WORKOUT:
DURING SHAKE: when I finish weights, before heading to do cardio, i have 1 scoop whey with 20 grams dextrose, and 5 grams BCAAs
POST WORKOUT SHAKE: 1 scoop whey, 50 grams oats

At this point I will stop major carb intake for the day (note, i DO have carbs PWO, 50 grams oats....), and normally just eat meats, along with perhaps some vegetables.

meal 5: 200 grams chicken breast with 150 grams of green vegetables, carrots or mushrooms

meal 6: 100 grams chicken breast, 6 egg whites, 1 scoop of soy/egg white protein blend.

I also snack throughout the day until the workout on raisins, nuts and apples (not too many mind, maybe 1 apple a day, 100 grams raisins, 80 grams nuts...).

My aims:
-To get ripped
-To feel healthier
-To get fitter

My stats:
Endo
15 stone (210 lbs)
5'9
White
~ 19% BF after a 4 month bulk

My questions:

- Am i consuming too much fruit?
- Is cutting carbs after the post workout shake the best way?
- what do you think of my 'during the workout' shake + BCAAs?
- I tend to store fat around the bum/back of legs area the most, and I know that spot fat reduction isn't possible, but any tips on how to accelerate this?

Thanks very much in advance,

Nick
