Re: My Menu

Looks pretty decent, Zuki!
The percentages are close to where they need to be.
If this is for Induction then you are over the veggie limit by one cup. It's fine for the first rung of OWL though and since you are doing heavy workouts, I'd say it's just fine.
Mix up your veggies though..get some others in there to benefit from the various nutrients and fiber that they offer.
You might want to google tuna limits as it's not generally recommended that tuna be eaten every day of the week due to mercury content.

Re: My Menu

Thanks for the info.

Good point about the tuna, I was really just using it for the protein.

Most of the time I will swtich my veggies around, but I like my meals boring and easy

What I really need to know if I should increase my protein since I am destroying my muscles

I'm basically a powerlifter on a cutting WOE(Atkins induction and owl). Then at my goal BF percent, I will be a powerlifter eating Atkins maintainence.
