    What do you think?

    Hey everyone. The holidays are over and the new year is in, so I'm getting back into my normal routine. I just wanted to know what you guys think of my diet as of so far. I know its far from perfect, but I'm slowing going to change it. Plus there are some things I just can't bring to school. I'm currently bulking and am 5'10 and weigh 165lbs.

    Breakfast (7:30)
    - Oatmeal with skim milk
    - Fruitshake
    - Water

    (11:00)
    - PB&J on rye bread
    - 2 Medium carrots

    (30 minutes of cardio and abs)

    (1:20)
    - Protien bar
    - PB&J
    - Fruit cup

    (3:30)
    - Protein shake w/ water
    - Apple

    (Workout)

    (6:00)
    - Protein shake

    Supper (6:30)
    - Some sort of pasta thing, I read the label and there is 26g of protein, 36g of carbs, and 7 grams of fat.
    - Milk

    Its 7:00 now, so I might include something else later, but nothing heavy. I've had about 3L of water throughout the day. I love peanut butter and probably put like 2 large tablespoons on each of the sandwiches. I was also thinking about switching to natural PB after I'm done this jar. Well thats all that I can think to include at the moment. Any and all suggestions are welcome. Thanks

    Thanks for the tip, I think I might have a tuna melt in a bit What do you think about the amount that I'm eating, it is enough, too much, or too little?

    Why not drink your protein with milk since your bulking?

    I also dont think your eating enough. Have you counted your calories?

    I think you are relying on protien bars/drinks too much. Not one ounce of meat in the whole day, add some chicken, beef, or fish. Some green veggies wouldn't hurt either.

    Edit: Opps, didn't see your response HoldDaMayo.

    Just to clear some stuff up, the pasta had chicken in it, as well as veggies. As for the protein shake, the first one I take with water because its sitting in my locker while I'm at school and I take it pre-workout. The second shake after my workout I take with skim milk. As for not eating enough, where do you you think I should up things?

    Well, I really cant tell you where to up things, unless you post your serving sizes and caloric intake. That way we can see what you consume in terms of protein carbs and fat.

    But for starters how about some eggs for breakfeast too? Maybe 1-2 whole eggs and a few whites.

    Does anyone know a good web page for the amount of protein/carbs/fat etc... in foods? I had a link to a really good one awhile ago but lost it somehow, and for the life of me I can't find it again.

    have a protein shake with some natural peanut butter before you go to bed as well... if you're bulking you're not worried about calories late at night, you're worried about your body being fed adequately while you sleep...

    Mayo. Will PB slow down the digestion of normal ON protein?

    Cottage cheese before bed is good too, its slow digesting, and loaded with protein

    yep, cottage cheese is perfect if you're down with it... I'm not a fan of the taste, so i stick to my natty PB with ON 100% whey...

    Well I took a look at that fit day site, I didn't have much time to figure things out, but what I got was 3100 calories. 25% protein 23% fat and 52% carbs. Does that sound right? And what by the way is ON protein?

    switch to natty peanut butter and ditch the jelly. full of sugar. make sure you are using whole grain bread. add some meat!

    it doesn't seem like that would be 3100 cals
