Help me optimize my diet

[NewbieChris]

No, my strength seems fine. I have been slowly increasing my weight with the new semi-circuit routine...

[NewbieChris]

Here is a review of my diet. I have downed calories somewhat significantly since last time for the reason that I don't think I'm losing consistently. I ballooned up this week 6 pounds. So:

1 cup cooked oatmeal
6 egg white 1 whole egg
banana or apple or orange

(This meal is 3 times a day)
7oz chicken
1/2 cup brown long grain rice
1 small stalk of broccoli or 1 cup asparagus


PWO shake that is essentially 376 calories

5oz chicken
1 small stalk of brocolli

how about switching some of the rice to veggies or salad and switching that last chicken meal for fish. you dont seem to be getting many good fats.

I take fish oil pills. I would rather take some of the chicken out of the picture and add a little avocado than do away with the rice. As for switching the last meal to fish...I don't like fish haha. I could consider lean beef, its just hard to prepare that in advance for me. However, if you think that is a good idea, what about changing the last meal to lean ground beef and taking 1 or two of the chicken meals and making it 5 oz w/ about a half an avocado, rice and broc, instead of hose it is now?

I don't know why, I was losing consistently for like 4 or 5 weeks, then I got on the scale and I had gained 6 pounds. Problem being, I think, I weighed myself at a different time that day. My friend told me that can make a huge difference. I'm hoping that is true.
