17 y/o male (18 in 4 months), I haven't lifted in about one and a half years and put on quite a lot of fat. I was planning to cut and make use of my beginner gains now that I'm getting back into lifting. I am 5'11 (178cm) and 194lbs (88kg) and 25 percent body fat. My maintenance is 2800 calories and currently my diet is about 2000 calories:
Eggs & ham omelette in the morning (3 eggs)
100g rice, 200g chicken breast for lunch (the chicken breast is rested in an acid-based marinade)
A banana, a cup of full fat milk and 14 halves of walnuts pre-workout meal, an hour to two hours before workout
100g rice, 200g chicken breast for dinner(post-workout meal)
A banana, a cup of full fat milk before bed
All of this amounts to: 2053 calories, 201g protein, 139g carbs, 93g fat in total.
I hit the gym 3-4 times a week.
It's a lot of food and a very filling diet despite being a 800 calorie deficit diet. I made sure to measure everything correctly with a scale, so I just wanted to know if it's normal to feel this full (maybe because of all the protein?)
My goal is like I said to cut and gain muscle at the same time, take advantage of noob gains and muscle memory from the time I lifted. Any recommendations / critiques about this diet would be wholly appreciated. Less protein? More carbs? Less fat? Thanks in advance.
