Amount of fat doesn’t look too alarming. But at nearly 4000 cal, you should definitely be eating more than 17 g of fiber.


Jessum

From a body composition standpoint not a problem. IMO though, your saturated fat is probably a bit high...


Agent356

So your saying it will affect more inside My body heart etc rather than appearance?. I can Cut it down, Like I said I bought 10% beef mince by accident, will buy 0% or whatever is lowest Value and Had 10% fat Greek yogurt for breakfast so I can definitely cut it down


HamiltonBrand

Well both. It’s harder to do a cut with saturated fat and it’s not heart healthy. I try to limit my sat fat to less than 10g a day. And eat about 40g fiber. You have so little fiber for so much calories and protein. In short, eat more tofu, beans, salmon, tuna, chicken breast. Eat less beef, chicken thighs, and animal fats, bacon. Etc. peanut butter is fine but keep it 1 tbsp a day max. Eggs are fine but I try to keep it 2 or less a day and often mix in egg whites for the lolz and extra protein. Eat more chia seeds and oatmeal. Less spaghetti and rice without beans.


Agent356

Fiber can make me Full a lot quicker and keep my full for a longtime so I try avoid Wholegrain foods tbh


rdmusic16

Fruit and veggies are a great source of fibre too. The amount of sugars you're getting from those seems fairly low (compared to your overall sugar), so that could be a helpful addition. Beans and lentils are also great.


HamiltonBrand

Hell yea. Apples are my go to. Can’t believe how much fiber it gives


HamiltonBrand

You don’t do cardio? Swimming?


Agent356

I do Bro Trust me lol, I lift boxes all day up and down stairs average 20,000 steps a day and Live right next to ocean so go for the occasional swim


HamiltonBrand

Try swimming every morning to do a mile (1,750 yards) about a hour. I could easily eat my diet and still often hungry. Maybe get a blood test next time you see your PCP just to rule out your cholesterol levels and pre-diabetes.


Agent356

Sounds like quite the challenge lol Might have to do It


Jessum

I agree with the other comment fiber needs to come up. you should consume 14g for every 1000 calories.


Jessum

Yup exactly. I'm pretty sure that dairy like milk and yogurt are not as much of a problem as the meat though. it doesn't need to be eliminated totally but maybe reduced to 10% of daily caloric intake.


Sea-Estimate-3864

You need at least 10g fibre per 1000 calorie’s minimum


Sea-Estimate-3864

Lower Protien and fat whilst increasing carbs in my opinion


emdaye

You would be better off eating more carbs and less fat, yes. But that's not an absurd amount


Agent356

Ya I have been prioritising Protein Too much, Probably had too much today


Cris11578

What app is this?


Agent356

NutraCheck, basically MyfitnessPal bit cheaper


Cris11578

Thanks internet friend


OwnAccident586

Hi! Could you detail a little more your diet? I mean maybe you can show us how are your typical meals… And what’s your height and how much do you Weight?


xrayphoton

If you're worried just swap some fat for carbs. Most bodybuilders stay between 50-100g of carbs in a bulk and get the rest through carbs and high protein.


doughnut_cat

yes, you need to be less then 70. https://imgur.com/qX6edPZ my physique

That’s 30% of calories fr fat. That’s not crazy. But it should be easy to reduce your amount of saturated fat by substituting more healthy fats. That could be more beans, lentils, grain or higher quality sources of animal protein if that’s your thing.


MelTorment

Saturated fats definitely seem high.


CptSmarty

Fat itself no. It is EXTREMELY calorie dense, which is helpful. Saturated fat, try to reduce that. Aim for non-saturated fats (if it becomes solid at room temp, its saturated). Lard, Olive Oil, and Avocado are high in fats..........but one is not beneficial.


Skellephant

"Is this Macro Nutrient that is fundamentally required for life and even more important for engery during lifting and gaining mass too high for gaining mass?" No. Most people don't eat enough fat during a bulk. Just limit junk food and try to eat healthy fats.
