10.00- Fruit then after 10 mins Oatmel.
12.00- Nutri-grain carrot bake

Hey there,

That really doesn't look too bad at all. Add some protein to breakfast and make a couple other small changes.

How about something more like this....

meal 1: fruit... then oatmeal and eggs/eggwhites
meal 2: fruit, protein (not sure what the carrot bake is?)
meal 3: tuna with salad
meal 4: whatever your mom cooks...
meal 5: nuts, veggies, low fat cheese
meal 6: turkey, chicken, ham, or beef sandwich (tuna twice a day is probably a little bit much)

What do you think?

well i'm sure you could easily do 12 reps for most exercises with 8.5kgs so at least double i'd think and that's a minimum

I could do 8.5 kg 12 reps if i was squatting,deadlifting or bench pressing, shoulder pressing would have little dificulties, and for curls and the rest of isolation exercises would be hard for me. So should i buy double the weight and just focus on compound exercises and forget about isolation exercises?
And I dont use any supplements would that have effect on results?
Thank you again

Low Fat Cheese and Nuts, will do this. Nuts to a minor extent, moreseo as a top up for the Cheese Proteins.

Good combination, the amount of things in there like Calcium, Fat Soluable Vits, a bit of Vit C, Copper, Selenium, Iron, Magnesium probably Zinc too, Healthy Fats, and Carbs.

Can't go wrong with that, as long as you don't make those kind of foods a major player in the diet, either once a day, or now and again is fine.
