    8am 4 whole eggs 2 slices of bread and a protein shake.

    12am chicken breast and pasta

    5.30pm prework out rice and chicken and a protein shake

    8.30pm protein shake and unsure suggesstions would be great!?

    10pm again unsure?

    These are the only times I am able to eat and am on a strict budget at the moment please let me know what you think and some input on the 2 eve meals would be great thanks!

    Eat more. Chicken, rice, milk, eggs, oatmeal, cheap cuts of beef, tuna. All cheap food. All good for poundage. It gets boring eating the same thing everyday but there are sacrifices to be made when you wanna eat clean. 1-2 tbsp evoo added to your protien shakes are good for calories. Nuts are good for calories but they aren't usually cheap. Good luck. Tight budgets suck but it's do'able

    10pm I will have a toasted tuna and mayonnaise sandwich using a whole can of tuna. I will find out how many calories that Is and then I will know how many more I need!

    I like to use liquid egg whites. It generally has a neutral taste and can be used in place of any liquid. Easy calories and can be fit in anytime of the day if/when needed.

    Less protein, more fat. You can get in fats easily with olive oil, as mentioned above. Protein's going to fill you up too much. Crack a can of tuna onto a bowl of steamed rice, drizzle of olive oil. Easy.
    Wondering where to start? Confused? "Homework 1" will get you started.

    Think you're ready for the "next step"? Take this test.
