cutting progress, tips/criticism welcome

so I started cutting on april 28th (some of you may remember my "why am I fat thread" from around that time.)

my stats were:
height: 5'9
weight: 192
waist: 38in

I took some advice from you guys and came up with this diet:

meal 1
1/2 cup cottage cheese
1 cup oatmeal
3 ex large eggs


meal 2
2 slices of nitrite free turkey
1 slice of cheese
lettuce
weight watchers wrap
1 cup of raw broccoli
handful of almonds

meal 3
tuna
1 cup broccoli and red pepper
handful of almonds

meal 4 (pre wrkout)
2 scoops whey

meal 5
2 scoops whey
1 scoop carb supp

meal 6
chicken breast
large serving of spinach
fruit

meal 7
1 cup cottage cheese

My training week goes like this:
mon: back/core
tue:off
wed:legs
thur: chest/calves
fri: biceps/core
sat:off
sun: triceps/high intensity cardio (ie burpee's, sprints)
I also cycle to and from work and to the gym (average 30min per day)

so it's may 13th and here's where i'm at:
height: 5'9 (obviously)
weight:188
waist:36.5

couple questions:
does raw broccoli make anyone else bloated?
how much weight will I have to drop to get my waist down to 34in? (i'm guessing 182-183)
is milk/cottage cheese really that good to have before bed?
should I cut out meal 7 and just have a bigger dinner? (meal 6)

(I would switch this to 1 large egg and 3 large egg whites)

-Your workout regiment is flawed IMO. If you are bodybuilding, then you want something like this.

Chest/Triceps
Back/biceps
shoulders/legs

Throw in a day of miscellaneous stuff like neck/calves/circuits etc.

If you are working out for fighting, then strength is what you are looking for. You should work Chest (bench), Squats, deadlifts, neck, pull ups etc. You really don't need to work calves, biceps and triceps much for fighting.

All in all though, your plan is pretty good...just some fine tuning here and there.

Cut weight watchers wrap out. Get more raw vegetables in there instead. Maybe more protein in meal #2...Im not sure what 2 slices of nitrite free turkey is nutritionally

When you say 3 eggs, you mean 3 boiled eggs, you just eat them like that?

Dude, vegetables with every meal - EVERY MEAL. Blend 2 cups of raw spinach in with your shake - seriously you can't taste it. Broccoli/carrots/lettuce I can taste in shakes, but spinach I can't.

And when do you workout? Between which meals?
