Please critique my diet plan

[JDUB348]

Hey there so one of my buddies suggested that i get on this forum and have you guys critique my diet plan. I plan on bulking up slowly, but trying to not gain ALOT of fat in the process. I do not intend on useing at all at this time, or in the near future because i am only 21 years old. I am 6'0 tall and right now at about 200 lbs even. I've been weight lifting seriously for 4 years now. I lift 5 days a week. I also work from 5:00 AM - 3:30 PM mon - thurs.

Up until the last couple months, i was pretty much eating like CRAP. My diet was pathetic. I was eating cereal in the morning, packeted flavored oat meal, tater tots, chicken strips, the list goes on and on. I finally decided to change that for good. I can't believe i've been eating like this because since i decided to change my diet, my performance in the gym has been AWESOME. I've been slowly dropping weight and the strength has been going up

About a month ago i changed my diet up and it was pretty much the same to what i am about to post. I was at about 4,000 calories, 400 grams protein, 500 grams of carbs, and i've been slowly loseing weight since i changed to that. I wanted to because i wanted to drop down to 198 for this power lifting meet i'll be doing next week. No, i am not a 100% power lifter, i am just doing this meet for "fun" with all of my buddies. I am MUCH more so a body builder then a power lifter, i just like to combine the squat, bench, and deads into my routines. Wouldn't make sense to go into this power lifting meet at 200 lbs because i would be in the 220 class, and get CRUSHED.

I just wanted to see what you all think of this diet plan as far as bulking up goes. I have yet to start this diet, so that is why i wanted to see what you guys think.

I made a few recc in bold. Fruit has way too much sugar man so stay away. The only times where I really see guys have fruit are with very low bf and have some for pwo, thats it.

[JDUB348]

Sounds like a plan ill start to eliminate the fruits and adjust what ever else you have mentioned. The 1MR is a pre work out supplement (nitric oxide supplement). Thanks alot for the reply. I'll be jumping on this diet a week from today (I've gotta be a maximum of 198.25 for next sunday).

Do you think the vegetables are really necessary? And i was just thinking now, do you think it would be a good option to put some peanut butter in the post workout shake instead of eating it with the wheat bread?

no, you want quick absorbtion and the pb will slow it down...drop the bread completely..

[JDUB348]

So just totally take out the peanut butter and wheat bread for the day?

[POPS]

So just totally take out the peanut butter and wheat bread for the day?

adjust your diet and macros and see what you come up with. If your fat is still too low then have a few tablespoons of natural peanut butter in your am meals where needed.

But yes, drop the bread completely!

[JDUB348]

About how many grams of fat should i be takeing in in one day? With what i have shown above, that brings me to 70 grams

Another question i have is why eliminate all the fruit? I'll absolutely take it out of the diet if you say its good to do so, but im just curious to what makes it negative to the diet

[JDUB348]

Ok so with the critque i got above, heres the revisions i made. What do you all think of this now? Is this enough fat in the day? I moved 2 TBSP of peanut butter to 7:30.. i can take that out if not needed. Another question i had was would it be ok to substitute a scoop of ON casein for the tuna at 7:30 if i grow tired of the taste of tuna?
