Hey guys. I was wondering if you all could take a look at my newly revised diet. I tried another one recently and it didn't really work and i'm hoping this will. I can't seem to get all my numbers right though. Any help is welcome.
About me:
Height: 6'6"
Weight: 320
Age: 20 (30 days till big 21!!)
Here it is:
Meal 1:
3/4 Cup plain oatmeal
2 boiled eggs
2 slices whole grain toast (plain)
Vitamin C (not that big but has 5 calories and 1g of carbs)
fish oil
water
Meal 2:
1 Can chunk light tuna
1 Tbs relish
water
Meal 3:
4oz. Chicken breast
0.5 cup brown rice
3.5oz mixed veggies
Vitamin C
Meal 4: Same as Meal 2
Meal 5: Similar to Meal 3 but substituting beef or turkey
Meal 6 PWO: Due to schedule, may usually be just before bed time
1 banana
1oz almonds
Totals: Calories: 1880
Protein: 163.5
Carbs: 202.4
Fats: 36.7
That's it! I know I should try to add some cottage cheese at the end but I simply can't stomach it. It always comes right back up. I'm going to be lifting heavily because I did powerlifting a few years ago and would like to get back into it. I know I need more protein, but i'm not sure how to add it in. Thanks for any help.
EDIT: I know my current numbers are outrageous. I got some bloodwork back from a recent physical and it literally scared me into doing something about it. So no fat comments please! lol

will you be doing any cardio? if it was me id have more fat in there. actually, id have more of everything in there. You need to eat in a way that you can/will actually continue to eat in the long term, this should be a change in lifestyle, not just a short term attempt at change. What is your exercise plan, 2 x full body weights per wk and 3-4 cardio / week?
what was your last diet and exercise program. how did you measure results or lack thereof, and how long did you stick to it for?

Not good. Last time it was checked it was in the ball park of 22%.
As for the last diet and results, it lasted for a few weeks and the meals were simliar but did have more of everything. As for results, I was losing weight but not by much. I read somewhere that one cheat meal a week is ok as long as it isn't horribly bad. Well, I had my one cheat meal in a few weeks and after that it just snowballed back out of control.
I was reading in the training section and i'm going to try the upper, lower, rest, upper, lower, rest, rest split and add some cardio in probably 5 times a week. Is this too much or not enough? Thanks for the help and any more info is welcome.
