You should watch your heart rate cause you might go alittle catabolic if you go too nuts with the cardio on a total empty stomach. And your strength will decrease even more.
But keep it up, seems like your going in the route you have been looking for.

I am still stuck at my weight and I think I might be over training...going to start a new program next week.

yo mike lookin good
but listen 1.5 grams/lbs of body weight is way too much
there has never in the history of weight training been a study that proved that people need more then .8 - 1 gram/ lb of body weight
theres no need for it and its bad for the kidneys
besides do u really like eating xtra dry chix, egg whites or tuna? ughhhhhhhhhh theres no need to torture yourself
just a lil advice peaceeeeeee
