I just finished a decent bulking season, coming out at 6'1", 215, and I'd estimate around 15% bf. I've been slowly walking my diet down, hoping to be conservative and save as much muscle as possible while I shed some fat. To bulk, I was running this diet:
Meal 1: 1 cup oats, 2 scoops whey, 4 whole eggs
Meal2: 1 cup oats, 7 ozs tuna, 1 tbls EVOO
Meal 3: 7 ozs ground turkey, 1 cup oats
Meal 4: Same as 2
Meal 5: Same as 3
Meal 6: 1 can tuna, 2 tblspoons natty Peanut butter
Meal 7: 1 cup cottage cheese
So far I've cut down to 1/2 cup oats and no eggs in meal 1 and have taken the EVOO out of meals 2 and 4. I did this over the course of about 4 weeks and haven't seen any loss of strength yet. As it stands, the diet is about 280 grams protein, 210 grams carbs, and 80 grams of fat.
I need help revising this diet and pacing myself so I don't end up losing everything I worked for this winter. I know some people will say too much tuna but I'm pretty well stuck on it for now but any other revisions would be welcomed.
