    *its about 2700 calories, 44-44-12
    *goal is to gain muscle and loose a small amount of fat
    *my weight is about 200 lbs, (you can check picture to see how lean)

    meal 1
    3 eggs, skim milk, 2 whole wheat bread slices

    meal 2
    potato, lean beef patty, 3 servings mixed veggies

    meal 3
    2 servings whole wheat pasta, 1 boneless skinless chicken brest, 1 whole wheat bread slice, 2 servings mixed veggies

    meal 4

    Not too bad at all, but you need some healthy fats like fish oils and flax seeds. Also I'd switch one of your bread meals out for something like brown rice, sweet potatoes or oats.

    Tuna is cheap at Sam's

    There is a recipe for protein pancakes, I'm sure some of you have seen.
    1/2 Cup Cottage Cheese
    1/2 Oats
    2 whole eggs + 1 white (I just used 3 whole eggs it was fine)
    1 tsp vanilla extract
    cinnamon
    Artificial Sweetener if u want (I didn't use it though)

    I don't know enough to comment on your diet, but this recipe seems good to me and maybe it could help you. I just tried it today and it's so damn convenient. I roughly approximated that to be 32/37/21 c/p/f. I tripled everything so i had 96/111/63 from pancakes today. Hopefully you can use this! I know it's going to help me very much.

    awesome, thanks guys! thatrecipe looks good, i could probably sub that for my breakfast for a change of pace....also, i like the idea of the oat switch for bread, cause its cheap and simple. ill also check out the tuna. how many grams of fish oil should i aim for daily if supplement there? is it unhealthy to do less than approx. 20% fat?

    get what your body needs get away from the ratio. 1g of protein per lb of LBM. figure out how many cals that is and go from there...

    cheap foods are milk/oats/eggs/tuna/yams

    minus some of them carbs add some more efa's

    def add some efas to meal 5...your body will burn that up in no time and you will turn catabolic over night....think about some cottage cheese hear or just add some extra efa's to slow digestion dowm.
