    Did you happen to add up the macros for this diet? You're also mixing pro/fat/carbs in your 9:30 and 2:30. Depending on how many grams of protein you need, I would also drop the protein shake before bed and just eat cottage cheese or have a pro/fat shake. What's your pwo meal? The diet needs some work, have you read rambo's cutting sticky? Keep on workin' on it man!

    You need a pro/carb for your PWO. I would suggest getting rid of all protein shakes besides for your PWO if that's possible. Whey/dextrose shake is optimal for PWO but it's also debatable that a whey/oats shake will yield good results as well.

    Instead of protein shakes just find a good protein source. Cans of tuna, chicken breasts...etc. Meal three also has protein, carbs AND fat. Try to have your meals consist of pro/fat or pro/carb. Drop the sandwich and just have a peice of chicken with your baked potato OR better yet switch that baked potato to whole wheat rice or a sweet potato.

    I always have a protein shake as my last meal, but it's also my PWO...it has little carbs and a trace of sugar, a nice calorie intake....It's very healthy but expensive....It called MGF-2 YUMMY!!!

    Your baked is the same as a "new" potato. Different regions have different names. The red potato is a small circular red potato. Your better off with; brown rice, oats, or a sweet potato for a carb source but if you have no choice you're results shouldn't suffer.

    Iv'e decided to change meals 2 and 5 to a chicken breast and 50g brown rice. Will it be better or not.

    Well, your meal two and five were both pro/fat meals and now you're switching them to pro/carb... is that your intent? Now your meals look like this:

    930; pro/fat/carb- Drop the bread, substitute oats, drop the peanut butter.
    1200; pro/carb
    230; pro/fat/carb- Drop the bread and cheese.
    500; pro/carb
    730; pro/fat
    1000; pro/fat


    We still need the macros for each meal and totals for the day to be accurate. Go to fitday.com or some other site that will give you the nutrients of each thing you eat and post them. It's coming along man!

    Finally an 18yo that is all about the diet first and not the juice first!!! Thats awsome man, and I think your definately on the right track for some serious size in the months to come, Just remember guys he said for a LOW INCOME so don't tear into his diet to bad, sometimes you just have to make due with what you have!!!

    I do what I can

    Usually when I start helping someone I feel as if I should help them until they get everything straight. Other times...well I get way too frustrated and never visit their thread again

    He's okay, so far.

    If anything were suggesting things that are cheaper in most cases than what he previously had such as oats over bread. A lot of protein shakes works for some but it's not optimal compared to whole foods unless he only has access to protein shakes. If you can afford to buy bulk frozen chicken and cans of tuna you'll be set. I've ran a cutter and bulker (different kcals, obviously) on; chicken, tuna, eggs, whey, rice, oats, canned/frozen veggies, and udos oil alone. It gets damn repetitive but you gota do what you gota do.
