What are your goals.

Add some cottage cheese, yogurt, low fat or fat free cheeses.

More protein in meal 5. ADD protein in meal 1&3. Your diet is seriously lacking protein, are you a vegetarian?

im not a vegetarian, i have eegs in meal 1 and chicken in meal 4. And on protein, there is 150-160g of protein in there already. Thats a little less than 1g of protein per pound. Once I fill in meal 6 i should be right at about 1.3-1.5g of protein per pound. Goals: gaining LBM, and not really worried about fat gains. I guess in meal 3 i could drop the spinach and add some meat. Spinach so hard to eat anyways.

what jodi said, and after you get protein in at every meal (atleast 30g in every meal) you can increase kcals by just upping portion sizes, ie .75 cup of oatmeal etc.

Keep your macros of your meals in a similar range. As well, keep your cals in a similar range. For your last meal, you could do 1cup cottage cheese(~30g pro)+1oz/28g walnuts instead of flax oil. If you are are an ecto some carbs would be fine in this meal as well. Once you sort out the diet plan, just increase the amounts accordingly to get more cals.
