    I don’t see anything particularly wrong with your meal plan (though you might want to add a fruit + general vitamin supplements in there because that is not a nutritionally complete diet).

    What’s more important is how it makes you feel over time. Since you’re a beginner, let me give you the standard beginner advice: Journal everything.

    I cannot express enough how useful this is. This is your ticket to getting the results you want, no matter what they are.

    Use a notebook, an App you like, whatever, write it all down. What you ate, how much you ate, how well you slept, how you felt waking up, how you felt working out, how easy it was to fall asleep, how much water you drank when and how much you weighed.

    Do that every day and look at it when you notice issues - say you’re too worn out to complete your sets, or maybe you can’t sleep and feel bloated, or you’re just not losing weight, etc. You have that journal, you have things to look at and adjust, and when you adjust them, you look at the journal and compare it.

    You will gain intricate insight into how your body functions and reacts in response to diet, rest and stimuli and it will let you control it to an extreme level after a while.
