hi, new to this board and need some good advice

Hello
I am a new to this board and need some advice. I have been doing aerobics at my gym and have been eating properly. i have been eating pretty clean for the past 2 - 3 months. i am 5'3 and weigh 130 lbs, i am quite muscular as i used to be a cheerleader. I am mainly looking to tone and add some definition, possibly lose no more than 5-10 pounds. i currently do cardio 3-4 times a wk and have recently started using weights to add definition. i am eating 5 times a day, taking a women's multivitamin and an eca stack.

basically my diet is like this:

8 am:
1/2 cup cream of wheat or oatmeal
some type of fruit (banana, apple, canteloupe)
1 eca stack (syndrex)
1 women's One A Day active multi vitamin

11 am:
1 cup cottage cheese with fruit (usually pineapple or blueberries)
1 myoplex protein shake

2 pm:
3 oz. turkey
2 slices whole grain sugar free bread
no fat mayo

7 pm:
4 oz. chicken, fish, or turkey breast
3 - 4 oz. vegetables (broc., caulifllower, peas, or corn)

i am drinking about 1 - 1 1/2 gal. of water per day. i have been told that i am not eating enough protein. if anyone has any suggestions they are much appreciated. i unfortunately can not afford a personal trainer on what i make, but would like to trim down a little. if anyone has suggestions i would like to hear from you. thanks.

someone answer her please...

WELL, FIRST YOU NEED TO ADD ANOTHER MEAL IN THERE BETWEEN 2PM AND 7PM....SO AROUND 4:30 OR SO.....NOT SURE WHAT TIME YOU WORKOUT, BUT IF IT'S AROUND THAT TIME, I WOULD SUGGEST MAYBE A PEICE OF FRUIT BEFORE YOU WORKOUT AND A PROTEIN SHAKE AFTER YOU WORKOUT, JUST TO KEEP YOU METABOLISM GOING AND KEEPING THE FLOW OF NUTRIENTS CONTINUOUS THROUGHOUT THE DAY....YOU SHOULD ALSO ADD SOME TYPE OF PROTEIN TO YOUR 8AM MEAL, SUCH AS A SCOOP OF DESIGNER OR OTHER WHEY PROTEIN TO YOUR OATMEAL OR 2 HARD BOILED EGGS.....I WOULD ALSO SUGGEST A SCOOP OR 2 OF PROTEIN RIGHT BEFORE BED AS WELL....

THERE'S LOTS OF SUGGESTIONS THAT I CAN ADD TO ANY OF THIS....I ALSO DON'T KNOW WHAT YOUR WORKOUT LOOKS LIKE, BESIDES THE CARDIO (EVEN THEN I DON'T KNOW WHAT KIND OF CARDIO YOU DO EITHER OR THE RATE OF EXERTION) SO I CAN'T MAKE ANY SUGGESTIONS ON WHAT TO ADD DEDUCT OR CHANGE.....

I'VE BEEN TRAINING FOR ABOUT 10 YEARS NOW AND HAVE A BS IN BOTH EXERCISE SCIENCE AND NUTRITIONAL SCIENCE, SO IF YOU NEED MORE HELP WITHOUT THE MEN DROOLING ALL OVER YOU, FEEL FREE TO ASK OR EMAIL ME AT [email protected] I'LL HELP TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE OR POINT YOU IN THE BEST INFORMATIONAL DIRECTION THAT I CAN.....
