Not sure what the fat content is on the Designer whey but I know 1/2 cup oatmeal only has 3 grams of fat so I'm still not sure if you're getting enough fat in meal 1. I would switch meals 2 &amp; 3 around. If you are using skinless, boneless chicken I would add olive or flax oil, like 1/2 tbsp and make sure you use some salad dressing on your salads. Do you know what your calories add up to and how much of the macronutrients (protein, carbs, fat) you're getting in each meal? It's a good idea to know this info so we can help you better especially since this is a long term thing, we'll need to make changes here and there as time goes on so ya gotta know where you're starting from. You don't wanna start with too few calories or you'll lose muscle and have nowhere to go when you plateau.
