    Please Critique my Bulking Diet.

    For the last two months I have been on a cutting diet supplemented with xenadrine and clenbuterol cycled 2 weeks/2 weeks. I managed to loose 9 pounds and I am reasonably satisfied with the results.
    I am now ready to start bulking again with the emphasis on gaining maximum muscle and minimum fat. I will attempt to keep my diet relatively clean using low glycemic index carbohydrates and fats low in saturates.

    My daily diet will consist of the following:-

    ........................................Protein... .......carbs...........fat.............cals.
    meal 1.
    30g whey protein....................26...............1.5... ..........2.3..............131
    40g complex carbs..................0..................38...... .......0.................171
    meal 2.
    tuna sandwich containing:-
    4 slices wholemeal bread..........20................68.............4. ................380
    1 tin of tuna..........................33.................0 ..............0.7...............138
    10g mayonnaise......................0.1............... 0.2............8.................75
    8g margarine..........................0.............. ....0..............4.9...............44
    meal 3.
    4 slices wholemeal bread..........20................68.............4. ................380
    100g chicken..........................24............... .0..............1..................105
    8g margarine.........................0............... ....0..............4.9................44
    meal 4.
    100g chicken..........................24............... .0..............1..................105
    75g brown rice.......................5.9...............55.7. ..........2.3...............266
    meal 5, postworkout shake.
    30g whey protein...................26................1.5... ..........2.3...............131
    7g flaxseed oil........................0..................0... ............7.................63
    banana (medium size)..............1.2..............27.5.......... .0.6................109
    meal 6.
    75g brown rice.......................5.9................55.7 ..........2.3................266
    100g chicken.........................24................ .0................1.................105
    17g mayonnaise......................0.1............... 0.3............14.7..............127.5
    meal 7.
    100g chicken...........................24.............. 0...............1...................105


    total: protein 234g, carbs 306g, fat 61g (8g of saturated), 2745 calories.

    I was hoping to consume about 3000 calories but I didn't want to increase my protein or carb intake as I feel these are sufficient at present.
    Would it be a good idea to increase my daily fat intake to get the calories up to 3000 per day? If so, can anyone recommend any good fat sources other than flaxseed oil?

    Does anyone have any opinions on this diet? Is there enough calories to bulk for someone of my size or should i increase the calories to 3000 per day?
