i got a wrestling tournament on november 5th, and am weighing at like 170 pounds right now. i need to get to 165, but would rather do it by shedding body fat then water weight. here is the first couple of days of how i have been eating so far.

Tuesday

9:30- egg and sausage sandwich, yogurt perfeit.

1:50- %100 whey with fat milk

4:00- 2 grilled chicken sanwiches and a smoothie.

7:30- 1 and half grilled chicken, 1 cheeseburger (wihtout bun) and 1 friedh chicken without skin.

11:30- protien shake with water.

Wed

12:00- little bit f beef, grilled chicken, and a little bit of pasta.

3:30- chicken and turkey wrap and small salad.

5:50 protien shake with fat free milk.

7:30- turkey and chikcen wrap and an apple.

Thurs

11:00- 2 pieces of chicken freid, shepards pie, a cookie (oculdnt help it)

1:15- protien shake with fat free milk

3:30- chicken and turkey wrap and protien shake with water.

5:30- big 100 collosal protien bar

8:30- 2 grilled chicken patties

12:30- protien shake with half milk, and half water.

keep in mind that im in college, and i try to eat as healthy as possible, its jsut sometimes theres no grilled chicken, and im forced to deal with fried, stuff like that. i no the diet is far from perfect, but for cutting weight, what do you guys think? i am also wrestling 3 times a week, and lifitng 3 times a week for strenght, so i hope cutting weight will not hinder my strenght training.

I think you're eating too much protein, and not enough fruit and veggies. All protein and few carbs makes you pretty stinky in wrestling practice from ammonia in your sweat, plus it's going to kill your endurance because of low glycogen. Also, you need to cut some of the fat you're eating as well.

See if you can get steamed veggies at the cafeteria, or go buy a steamer and keep it in your room. Also, get some fiber in your diet. Milled flax, oatmeal, etc. Fiber keeps you full and keeps the calories low also.

Here's a good shake you can try:

1/2 cup rolled oats (uncooked)

2 Tbsp Milled Flax Seed

1/2 cup canned pineapple

1 cup OJ

1 cup fat-free plain yogurt

1 scoop whey protein powder (@20-23gms-optional)

1 medium peeled carrot

Mix in blender until smooth. Add or delete ingredients as you need to. If it is too thick add some water. All these ingredients you should be able to keep in a dorm fridge.

I eat one or two of these every day, and I rarely get hungry later.

With respect,

If you are going to use a high protein diet (either for muscle mass or against fat mass) make sure to drink a LOT of water. I know this may seem contradictory to the idea of losing weight, but high protein consumption leads to dehydration.

Even if you do drink a lot of water, know that you'll urinate it out once you get well hydrated.

Maybe I sound too worried about water, but I have seen what crash diets (in the athletic sense) can do to people.
