[quote=Anonymous]I compete in a weight class sport and have to lose 6 pounds in the next month. I have cut down to 1800 calories this week. Here was my intake yesterday:

Breakfast:
Coffee with chocolate toffee truffle creamer
Strawberry greek yogurt with blueberries and cacao nibs
Half an avocado
Fresh mozzarella
34g carb/32g fat/30g protein

Lunch:
Chicken breast
Barilla protein pasta
Butter
Fresh basil
38g carb/8g fat/36g protein

Dinner:
Sirloin
Butter
Half an Avocado
Asparagus
Parmesan cheese
12g carb/33g fat/51g protein

Snacks:
3 oatmeal cookies dipped in peanut butter and chocolate Jif whips
1 piece of dark chocolate
35g carb/18g fat/5g protein

Total:124g carb/91g fat/121g protein

A high fat diet works better for me, keeps my hormones stable, keeps me full, and prevents migraines. I cut weight 4 times a year to get from training weight to competition weight. When I'm just in a training cycle, I bump up my carb intake to about 200g for the extra energy. I train 5 days a week, 2 hours per session. My training weight is 134lbs at 5'6" and my competition weight is 127.9lb.
