Haha thanks. It's not as cut as I would like to be yet. That's still about 11-12% bodyfat for me.
I completely agree with the balanced diet. And to put things in perspective with my picture...
I'm not where I want to be just yet, nor was it in my plans to be where I want by now. I was shooting for early July, so I'm pretty much on track. And this is how I got to where I am:
4 day lifting split (mon, tue, thurs, fri)
ZERO cardio (i.e. no running, biking, etc etc)
I eat carbs at least 4 out of my 6 meals a day (breakfast, morning snack, lunch, and dinner) and generally one REASONABLE cheat meal a week
And here is the list of things I eat most frequently:
Proteins - Tuna, 93/7 beef, chicken, egg whites, whey, casein
Carbs - Oats, whole grain pasta, sweet potato, whole wheat bread, broccoli, asparagus, brown rice
Fats - Almonds, 1% milk, whole eggs
Obviously some of those cross categories (i.e. the beef and tuna provides some of my fats)
Cardio is in play now, so results are just going to keep coming
