Wow that seems like a lot... Anyways these numbers arent exact, ive probably had a grand total of 30 hours of sleep this week so i prolly messed up somwhere ...

i left out the protein and/or carbs from things such as bananas, creatine, juice, mayo etc. The total calorie count is more accurate than the carb/protein count and the carb count seems too high.

I find it almost impossible to drink 1-2 gallons of water per day because then i have no room for my food haha. I usually end up drinking 3-4 litres.

Im not keeping much weight from this diet, ill go with it for 3-4 weeks, gain several poundage, cheat one day and be back to square one so i was thinking of throwing in another mass gainer shake.

My stats are: 19 years old, 156 pounds, 5'7", super fast metabolism. been training for 2 years pretty much. I did a stupid cycle of 350mg test, 200mg deca for 10 weeks w/ pct about a year ago, so hopefully i didnt do any permanent damage with that. I decided i was way too young and i wont juice until im much older. Im in my second year of engineering so its not like i can heat anything or whip meals up on campus readily lol.

PS. plz dont flame me, as im no body building expert and there isnt much science behind this diet except for bulk = calories. haha

thanks in advance for looking at this

Its a diet...

I would rather see you consume more oats, brown rice, sweet potatoes/yams, or lentils rather then just bread and fruits. As well as more protein sources rather then lunch meats and mass gainers. Try some lean beef and chicken.

You need veggies and efa's in there. Lose some of the mayo....and add some flax, olive oil, nuts, nut butters, and fish oil.

Lose the mass gainers....those are full of crap and sugars ussually. Make your own meal replacement from oats, whey, fruits, cottage cheese, efa's, etc etc. Much better for you. Along these same lines...you are taking in alot of sugars...from your chocolate milk and fruit juices. I sense alot of your calories are unclean calories. You could try and clean your diet up and see if that helps with the weight gains.

Sure you may put a few lbs on but with such a fast metabolism as you say you have those few lbs may be more fat then anything so you burn it rather quickly.

You are taking in close to 32 cals per lb...thats alot of cals IMO. I hope you aren't just jumping into this diet rather then gradually increasing your cals up to this point.

Also your post w/o meal is not ideal...I'd go straight whey and oats followed by another carb and protein dense meal 45-60 minutes after it. Then have your cottage cheese. You don't want any fats really post w/o...slows the digestion process down to much which is not what you want here.
