Pointers?

Protein powders are fine in a pinch but they should never replace real food sources like chicken, fish, lean steak etc..

Your body just doesn't use powders the same way. May look good on paper but in real world use your body will look better with real food. Limit it to 2 shakes per day if possible.

What is wrong with the amount of whey I use? I have been using casien to replace some whole food meals and keep my calories down and whey to supplement the carbs I take in.

Quickly the thing that jumps out at me is I think you are relying way to much on whey for protein.

[AvidFisherman]

Other than the multivitamin and the potassium gluconate the other supplements have been added to my diet in the past couple weeks.

[AvidFisherman]

I guess I should list the supplements I take every day that I did not mention before in the previous message.

MuscleTech Platinum 100% Carnitine: 500mg with breakfast, 500mg with dinner

MuscleTech Platinum CLA: 800mg with breakfast, 800mg with lunch and 800mg with dinner.

NOW Green Tea Extract 400mg with breakfast

NOW Alpha Lipoic Acid 250mg with breakfast

1 a Day mens multivitamin with breakfast

Natures Made Potassium Gluconate 500mg with breakfast

I drink about 4-5 cups of coffee throughout the morning

I just started taking NOW Digestive System V caps today.

I am new to eating healthy, before I ate whatever I wanted and now I am fat, can you all look at my diet and let me know what I am doing right and what I am doing wrong?

I am trying to take in no liquid calories other than my protein shakes.
