    Diet Help

    Hey everyone. Im looking to start bulking and i need help with my diet.

    Age 20

    Weight 194 lbs

    Height 6'0

    B/F 14%


    I did a TDEE calculator and apparently im at 3224, so ill have to be at around 3700 to bulk, right?

    My current diet only gets me at 2251.


    7:00-
    6 boiled egg whites
    1 slice bread
    Protein shake



    9:00
    1 cup oatmeal made with milk



    12:00
    1 can of tuna
    1 tbsp light mayo (somewhat of flavor)
    4 pieces of bread (tuna sandwich)

    3:00
    1 cup oatmeal made with milk

    4:00-5:30 Workout with 15 min of cardio


    6:00
    Post Workout Protein Shake
    Grapefruit



    7:00 or 8:00
    2 Tilapia Fillets
    1 cup brown rice

    Ive been following this diet for about 2 months, lost some size on my gut but not making any muscle gain and hardly any strength. I know it takes time but im under my TDEE, so i wont gain anything.



    This is terrible and I would appreciate if someone can help me out with it. My goal is to hit about 3700, just need to know what else and what time to eat it. Thanks

    I did a TDEE calculator and apparently im at 3224, so ill have to be at around 3700 to bulk, right? K i get ur tdee at 3100 using katch/mcardle (which has a reputation for being a touch on the high side).. at 14% im surprised u wanna bulk. id prefer to be 10% (or less) when startn a bulk but to each his own

    if i were u id start around 3500. a nice round number with 400cal surplus over an already possibly highly estimated tdee and considering ur bf%..

    40/40/20 puts u to: 350g pro/350g carbs/78g fat

    My current diet only gets me at 2251.


    7:00-
    6 boiled egg whites how bout throw in a whole egg here
    1 slice bread swap this for 1 cup oats
    Protein shake



    9:00
    1 cup oatmeal made with milk gonna need lean protein here



    12:00
    1 can of tuna prob 2 cans (if theyre small)
    1 tbsp light mayo (somewhat of flavor) not great but "ur bulking rite"
    4 pieces of bread (tuna sandwich) i prefer sweet potato or brn rice or oats over bread. and how bout some green veg too?

    3:00
    1 cup oatmeal made with milk need protein here. maybe chicken breast

    4:00-5:30 Workout with 15 min of cardio


    6:00
    Post Workout Protein Shake
    Grapefruit how bout oats instead, or sweet pot or brn rice??



    7:00 or 8:00
    2 Tilapia Fillets
    1 cup brown rice throw in some spinach, broccoli, asparagus here


    (Before bed) have 1cup cottage cheese (lowfat, 2% or less) and some natty PB, or maybe an omelette with 1 whole egg, 6whites, 3oz lean beef or chikn.

    Ive been following this diet for about 2 months, lost some size on my gut but not making any muscle gain and hardly any strength. I know it takes time but im under my TDEE, so i wont gain anything.
