Does my diet sound good enough?

[front2back]

Anyways, I'm trying to lose about 10lbs of excess bodyfat (gradually) and mostly promote muscle mass building. Not Arnold size, but I'm about 195lbs now and I'd like to put on a solid 10-15lbs of muscle in the next year. I'm usually stuck with university food most of the day, but I want y'all's thoughts.

Breakfast:
-Either a main entree of a couple pancakes, a waffle or a couple of french toast slices. With syrup.
-LOTS of scrambled eggs. IT says like 17g per serving and I fill up like half a plate with it.
-A serving of fruit. It has honeydew melon slices (I think), pineapple, green grapes, and some small purple-ish berry (blueberry?)
-A glass of Whole milk.
-On occasion a small biscuit with chicken or sausage.

Lunch:
-Either a meat like 2 slices of ham, or some sorta chicken (I try to eat a lot of chicken though).
-A turkey sandwich on whole grain bread with 2 slices of white American. That's it.
-Another fruit serving from breakfast.
-5 cucumber slices.
-5 pieces of broccoli.
-A glass of Gatorade (it's hot outside I drink water usually the rest of the day).
-On occasion: A single slice of cheese pizza or a turkey burger without the buns.

Dinner: Exact same as lunch.

In-between:
-A Nature Valley Protein bar with Dark chocolate and peanuts, no almonds. Usually only once per day, sometimes twice.
-Brewed all natural Lipton Green Tea, no sugar added. I'll probably go through about 2-3 Liters per day.
-Water. Usually about 3 Liters a ay (most of the time I drink the Green Tea).

So do y'all think this is good or not? Any comments, questions, concerns, suggestions?

Keep breakfast very simple. Toast, an orange or a handful of cereal with boatload of tea or coffee will do. Also give me 15 push ups for breakfast. For lunch trade in that sandwich for some popcorn or more fruit and veg. Give me 15 more push ups.

Only 30 push ups? Your going a little easy on him aren't you?

Start small at first then increase. Too many people only do zero per day. Must start him somewhere.

If your trying to lose weight I would cut the breakfast main entrée or substitute it with an omelet with vegetables, sausage is also high in fat and calories so you may want a more lean source of protein.

Cut the carbs out, cut the sugar out.. And lift heavy weights. Eat high protein for ever meal.

Pretty much what I've been doing. Although sugar (Gatorade) can be cut out, some carbs are just unavoidable. Even though I try to get rid of them a lot.

[denisenic01e]

Carbs/sugar control mass.. the only carbs that are unavoidable are the ones from veggies. Bodybuilders that diet to get lean don't eat much if any fruit.. Because it's got too much sugar. Otherwise anything like bread, cookies, crackers, etc.. Can all be avoided. It's just discipline. You can eat high fats, like avocados, peanut butter, & coconut oil for energy instead of carbs.. And they'll help you lean out.

Good point. I'll try some of that for sure!
