you're going a bit too heavy on the starches - corn isn't a vegetable. next time, swap out the corn for mixed veg or other bright veggies, also add some to lunch.

Silva-

I'm going to correct your diet, to help you out. Here are some pointers.

Breakfast-Is this immediatly upon waking? at noon? You know breakfast was wrong. Oatmeal with protein powder, low carb yogurt and berries is what I do most days.

Lunch-5 hours is too long. I rarely make it to 3 hours after breakfast.

Pre Workout may or may not be too long before workout. Most people say eat solid food 2 hours before, shakes one hour before. It really up to the individual. I do better eating solid food closer to workout. Like an hour, maybe 1.5.

Where's the post workout shake? Whey protein, multodextrin and dextrose is cheap and effective.

Dinner-About an hour after your workout. Pork tenderloin is good, pork loin is probably too fatty. Corn is a carb as far as fitness goes, not a veggie. Use red potatoes or sweet potatoes instead of white. Don't eat anything white, really. No white rice, bread, etc.

You'll get there. I know you're just starting. I'm not coming down on you, just giving you some pointers, a few little tweaks, to get your fat burning going.

Did I mention I quit smoking along with my girlfriend about a month ago? Quit snuff too. Yeah, I did them both on occassion. I like to do things to excess. It's easier to quit if you have someone to quit with. I cannot let her and me down.

You still a quitter? It gets easier after about 2 weeks. Cravings are not as long.
