Would really appreciate some help with my diet plan.

FIND PLAN AT THIS POINT ************

Basically, I'm ready to really dedicate myself to gaining muscle and being healthy. What I'm trying to do is build a solid diet plan for myself. I've filled in measurements here on the site, if any of you would need that information. Other than that, I'm 6'4" 166lb. I was around 170lb, but I've been exercising more recently, so maybe I'm losing some fat. Also I cut dairy out of my diet—after finding out it was the sole cause of my acne—which is probably another reason for the weight loss.

I found a diet plan online for bulking. I then edited it slightly to suit me. (It was designed for a 205lb person)

For the most part, I like the plan. I just need to take some stuff out, and replace it with something else. I also would like some of your opinions on the plan itself.

So I'll just explain what I need help with (FIND PLAN BELOW QUESTIONS) -


I've been struggling to find a replacement for milk. I'm using water, but obviously it doesn't go great with oatmeal. What I've found, is that if I put the 4 raw eggs into my meal replacement powder shake, It tastes much better than with just water. So would there be a problem leaving out the eggs at 7:45, and instead, having them at 10:30?

I know these questions may sound a bit silly to some of you, but I hear about things like insulin spikes, and what not, and I just want to make sure I'm not eating food redundantly, or even not getting the right nutrition, when I need it most.

I want to replace the chicken, and whole meal pitta at 1:30; with brown turkey mince, and whole meal tortilla. Would this be OK?

Brown rice – It takes 50 mins to cook! You've got to be kidding. What can I replace it with?

Mackerel or salmon – I can't eat cold, tinned salmon; or tuna. I can't afford two salmon fillets every day. What could I replace them with?

Cottage cheese – Even if I hadn't cut dairy, I still wouldn't be eating any cheese. It disgusts me. I wish I liked it, because I know it's a tough one to replace. Any suggestions?

I know it's quite a lot to read through, and I am deeply appreciative to anyone who does.

Thanks in advance.

Also I cut dairy out of my diet—after finding out it was the sole cause of my acne It is 99% do to genetics only, just eat the dairy...Not eating dairy will barley have any impact on your acne at all, let alone being a sole cause—which is probably another reason for the weight loss.

Brown rice – It takes 50 mins to cook! You've got to be kidding. What can I replace it with? Brown rice is WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY OVER RATED....Take 2 cups of white rice and 4 cups water and put it in a microwavable dish and cook for 15 minutes.....DONE..No cooking, no waiting, no clean up.

Mackerel or salmon – I can't eat cold, tinned salmon; or tuna. I can't afford two salmon fillets every day. What could I replace them with? You can buy bags of frozen fillets at costco of Tilapia and Orange roughy for like 10 bucks...Not fishy at all either

Cottage cheese – Even if I hadn't cut dairy, I still wouldn't be eating any cheese. It disgusts me. I wish I liked it, because I know it's a tough one to replace. Any suggestions? Plain Yogurt is good..I like my cottage cheese with pineapples it is AWESOME! Try it

Here is some good macros for you...Protein 275 grams Carbs 400-500 grams Fat 75-100 grams......At your weight and height you don't need to worry about "Fat" right now...You could eat a ton before you get anywhere near fat so I wouldn't be TOO TOO Strict on your diet. Obviously, don't eat like shit but if you want to throw in a cheese burger or pizza every once in awhile GO FOR IT!

The macros I gave you are good for you to gain weight so if you hit those consistently you should definietely be putting on some size
