can you add macros?

I calculated your Total Daily Energy Expenditure at around 2400 calories a day. If the total calories are around 2000 then you can lose weight. Post is pretty much useless until you know how many calories you are eating.

As far as food choices and timing there is some work to be done as well. Don't ever use dextrose. Cottage cheese before bed was good suggestion. No more than 2 shakes a day. What are the shakes? You could eat one whole egg with meal one with the egg whites. I will stop there because none of that really matters if you are eating 3000+ calories a day.

He wants to run a lean bulker, so he will still need slightly over maintenance cals, but cardio needs to be increased... Like everyone else said though, macros are needed here or at least portion sizes...
