Here's my Diet, what do you think. Taking advice.

[Cody95]

Hi, i'm going to list my current diet (Bulking), which i have been using for some time now i would say around 4 months. I was around 180 when i started and i am now 201. I've put on really good size, seeing a'lot more definition, i'm sure i've gained a'lot of water weight and i know i've put on a little fat over my abs then again i am bulking, every time someone i know sees me they complement my size, even the trainer at my gym the past few months as i got bigger he would say something about it every time he would see me, now we train together. It feels really good to be where i'm at now, i've learned so much about myself this past year, my weight fluctuated a bit but i learned what my body needed and what works for me. I will accept any advice given, please no negative comments, i want to have a negative free post.

You need to figure out your macros. P/C/F

And also figure out your tdee. Good job on the gains.

some confusion I think going on here

the main reason to eat egg whites is to avoid the fatty content of the yolk, which can be significant
yet I see you later eating peanut butter, which is extremely fatty. which seems to defeat the purpose of the egg whites. if you are going to eat above TDEE, then no need for egg whites. just eat the whole egg. more nutritious, more calories, less expensive than egg white.

not a big fan of the white rice. it's processed, and loses the nutritive value and fiber of the husk. if you eat rice, better would be to eat whole brown rice.

overall, fairly balanced. not sure the macros of the meal, and whether or not sufficient protein. or your stats, or your TDEE.

Instead of all the white rice, you may consider more fruit, especially pre gym where the extra energy can give gym performance a boost.

All in, this diet looks decent, and you can do a lot of good with it. My suggestions are just some fine tuning I would do, but I dont' think are critical.

Good luck!

I appreciate the advice. The reason I eat egg whites and then later eat whole eggs is simply for the protein, and I eat the whole eggs before bed for a slow fat digestion throughout the night so i dont wake up hungry in the night because a can't afford to take casein protein atm. Also I'll try to eat more fruit like you said, I avoid it usually because it's loaded with sugar which I try to avoid.

Try cottage cheese at night, it is basically casein protein, and it's cheap

only thing with that is it can be high in sodium, but yeah it is excellent protein source, having some tonight, I feel like pasta would help a lot to if your looking to bulk

The problem with that is I hate it! Atleast I did like 5 years ago, is there anything I can mix it with to make it taste better?

I'm not a fan of it either, but i put 20g of it between 2 rice cakes like a cottage cheese/rice cake sandwich lol.

i either add fruit to it, or protein powder. i also mix it in my shakes to blend it up. you can also make pancakes with it

Dude guy! I have cottage cheese three times a day! Put your protein in it. I put cinnamon, blueberries, chocolate protein, and my flavored bio gro. Try it!
