Before Bed: 1/2 cup fat free cottage cheese

80 cal, 13 g prot, 6 g carb increase your protein intake at the prebed meal eat a slow digesting protein (example cottage cheese)and add some efa's you must add efa's to your prebed meal...

2475 cal, 293 g prot, 242 g carb, 39 g fathow's your progress how much do you add per week on this ???as you said you've already done it for 2 months

first ........
-over all macros :47/39/14% pro/carbs/fats
first decrease your protein intake to 220 grams for example depending on your stats but any way 300 grams of protein is too much for a 150 lbs person on a bulk and 47% protein is too much when bulking 30-35% is fine.....second increase your fat intake to at least 20% and raise your carb intake a little bit....add some efa's : my suggestion is olive oil to meals 2,3 and some fish oil to meal 4 and prebed.....

I added some notes up ...That's my opinion wait for the mods advice...

I've gained about 2.5 lbs and dropped bf% from around 12 -7/7.5%

Too much bread products, not enough fats, not enough veggies.

Try to balance out your meals better.

JMO

thanks for all the suggestions thus far. I will take them all into thought.

o yes you also have to put some dairy ....use skimmed milk or 2% milk in your shakes it'll also taste better... good luck

I think meant "might want to consider". Milk isn't a necessity.

Isn't having enough dairy products an important thing??

If you want to that is fine. But it isn't necessary.

See what I was doing was putting 1 cup Fat Free Skim Milk with my shakes after workouts. But I've changed that recently because I figured, why would I want to have the milk in there because I just want to get the protein to my muslces as fast as possible, and wouldn't the milk slow that down?

no keep the skim milk PWO.

ok, will do

Who the hell eats "1/2 slice of bacon"? You count the number of mushrooms you eat?

This is not possible, is it?

I don't see the point in counting mushrooms. The Caloric intake is next to nothing. But whatever.

People like to making eating properly alot hard then it should be.

I once read about a horse jockey that would treat himself by eating the peanuts on plane trips - only "4" of them.

Eat as well as you've learned, use common sense, the scale and the mirror on occassion while working. It ain't an exact science.
