Weigh In at Built Big

I want to start building muscle, but first I want to lose my excess fat. I'm 6'3" and I weigh 225. I want to get down to 180-190 before I seriously start building muscle. I plan on eating six small, well balanced meals a day averaging 1000-1500 calories a day total. I hope to keep my metabolism up by eating throughout the day, as well as drinking green tea and water. I'm also considering the practical use of nutritional supplements since I will be getting so little food. I will do moderate cardio most days of the week, as well as some light weight training once or twice a week. Here is what I'm planning for my meals:Meal 1: Quarter avocado, fat free yogurt, fresh steamed green vegetable, a couple ounces of animal protein, a piece of fruit, and a small portion of complex carbs.Meal 2-5: Animal protein, green vegetables, fruit, carrot.Meal 6: Animal protein, green vegetable, fruit, quarter avocado.I guess my question is... What do you think? Do you have any suggestions?

you seem to be off to a good start! your diet is pretty good and you also exercise regularly. just don't forget to drink plenty of fluids especially when you work out so that you can replenish your body with the fluids it lost when sweating.

sounds ok but dont overdose yourself with too much protein..opt for a well toned and kinda cut or ripped look rather than bulky...

for someone your size, who is increasing his activity and decreasing the amount of food at the same time, I think this is a bit too drastic. I would shoot for at least 2000 calories a day in the beginning at least. You don't want to lose strength and not be able to work out at all. You will need a more varied diet than that too. It sounds good above, just can't forget calcium ( try fat free milk) and fat free yogurts for this. Be sure to vary the fruits and veggies and types of protein, not forgetting fish. Best of luck to you : )

I like your food plan a lot.  It sounds like you are totally on the right track.  I do think that your calorie target (1000-1500) is too low for you - you are a big guy and I don't think you should drop below 1500 calories.  Track your calories and scale up your portions so that you are eating 1500-2000 calories a day and include a multi vitamin.
