Hey there,
So I`m just getting back into lifting and eating properly again. I`m about 5'11 165lbs. Naturally skinny and a hardgainer. I basically stopped being healthy and going to the gym for a while. And went from about 185lbs with under 10% bf to god knows what now. It took alot of work to get there and than I blew it but anyways I`m motivated to get back to where I was. Here is what my bulking diet looks like .. but i`m very open to suggestions and critique. Haven't calculated the macros may do that when i get a chance.
Meal 1 (8)
4 whole eggs, scrambled
2 slices toast /w butter (or bagel)
1 bowl of cereal
orange juice
Meal 2(11)
1 can tuna
4 pieces whole wheat bread
1 scoop whey protien /w olive oil (2 tablespoons)

Meal 5(9)

my schedule kind of sucks and im thinking about maybe going to the gym before classes, rather than in between classes so that i can eat a meal an hour afterwards .. what do you guys think? and what are some good snacks during long stretches of class? (all i have got is granola bars, rice cakes..) i can't eat peanuts or peanut butter unfortunately .. maybe i should get some protien bars? never used those before but im open to suggestions .. some days i have 5-6 hour stretches
