    alright well my friends lil bro is a freshman in high school weighs around 185-190 5'11 and is lookin to gain weight but he cant figure out if he has enough calories or not so ill lay out his diet and see if u guys can help

    oatmeal
    milk

    445 calories
    ----
    9:30am

    280 calories
    ----

    930pm
    leanbody protein bar

    280 calories
    ----

    6/8 meals coming out to 2035 calories

    do you think a school lunch and w/e his mother cooks (usually a big meal, definately high in protein if not high in cals) would at least set him over 3000 calories?

    thanks bros

    edit: entire diet puts him at about 210-240 grams of protein without lunch and dinner, he didn't give me carbs on it

    School lunch is probably 700 cals itself so I would say yes. I would also add more eggs in breakfast and try (I know its hard) to ditch the protein bar and get some real food.

    only reason for protein bars is he cant eat in school

    so hes gotta be sneaky

    Much more real food at the meals he does eat, that's for sure.

    No significant amount of progress is made on bars.
