should I have any lower carbs / more protein or is that good? Also, I need to throw a little fat in there, what should I do?

[dxiw]

my old diet was complete crap
coffee breakfast, mcdonalds/subway/taco bell/wendys lunch, lots of fruit, high carb dinner

I'm looking to get down to 10% bf over the next few months and maintain muscle as much as possible, currently benching 1Rm of 230-240 and about 2 abs showing flexed.

[dxiw]

anybody, please????????

BTW the Fat is approx. 50-70g i think so total cals is about 2100-2300

[Behemoth]

I don't see any healthy fats/EFA's in there.

[dxiw]

what should I do for the fats? Also, should I remove some carbs? I have flax seed oil and some other good fat stuff. I've been lifting for 3 years always trying to bulk/gain muscle this is the first time I want to get seriously cut, so please help me out. Thanks bro. what ratio shuld i aim for?

[Behemoth]

Ya, take the flax. Some other good sources are: Olive oil, natural peanut butter, nuts, and fish oil.

Ratio isn't that important just so long as you're getting 1 gram/lb of bodyweight in protein and enough quality fats (at least 20% of your calories from fats). Carbs are just a filler. If you find yourself hungry all the time, perhaps cut some of the carbs and replace them with protein or fat (as they are more hunger satiating). If you find yourself terribly lethargic all the time perhaps add some more carbs as they are generally the most redily used source of energy in your body.

Also remember to add/drop calories slowly when readjusting. And drink plenty of water. A good multivitmin would be a helpful supplement during a cut as your body may not be getting all the vitamins and minerals it needs since it's in a calorie deficit. A salad a day couldn't hurt either, I usually eat a fair sized salad at least once a day and it helps with hunger and adds very very few calories when you don't top it with anything.

All in all your diet looks decent. Make the few tweaks suggested and just play it by ear.
