    so a typical day's meals is say:
    breakfast:
    nada or granola bar, lol

    lunch:

    buffet or fast food

    dinner:
    restraunt, whatever

    I always try to keep the protein up, chicken/turkey/tuna, etc.
    Wow man, i dont think i would be able to function eating that little in one day. for one bump up some carbs in the morning keep your granola bar for a snack later on. get some oats and eggs in the morning. Your need to have 6 to seven meals throughout the day not just the three. buffet/fast food , if you want your fast food wait till immediately after your workout and get a grilled chicked on white bread from mcdonalds and a small ice cream cone for some quick carbs. grilled chicken, tuna, atlantic samon, some 1oz sirloin, cottage cheese before bed...etc. these all need to be in your menu. If you want send me a private message and i'll give you a sample diet of mine for a day cause i've already taken up a shit load of space. You start eatin like 85% of the people on this site do- i guarantee you hit 180 without any gear what so ever!

    sending pm.

    I work on the road, away from home. My diet lacks PARTIALLY because of this, 10+ hours a day at work and a very busy hectic work routine, so I haven't had much time in the day to even take a piss. And it makes it harder moving around so much from one side of the U.S. to the other so often to keep well stocked and planned. A lot of times there is no option other than eating out whether it's fast food or a healthy restraunt. But I know this is no excuse just trying to further my self here. Thanks.

    sorry bro my profile is still messed up, AND SORRY FOR POSTING THIS IN THIS THREAD INSTEAD OF DIET/NUTRITION i just joined this site as a recom. from one of my friends from another site so i haven't been completely updated yet. I understand its hard to keep a good diet when your busy all the time. I graduated from college a couple months ago and along with full time school and full time work i never had time to sit and eat. When i would get home at night i would make my meals that needed cooking the nights before. i'll give you a sample on here - i'm not a dietician so some guys may want to attack my diet which is fine, opinions are welcome but here ya go:
    Breakfast: 5 egg whites, 1 whole egg, 1c cooked oatmeal

    morning snack (10am ish): 1 can tuna on 2 slices of whole wheat or whey protein shake and banana

    Lunch: Large Chicken breast (cook night before) w/ cup of cooked mixed vegetables, I'll add a sweet potatoe for good fiber from time to time but when your pressed for time thats kinda hard to do alot

    midday snack: anything with good protein cottage cheese and pineapple/ protein shake and banana or apple or grapes ...etc.

    preworkout: 2 scoops whey protein and fruit

    postworkout: 2 scoops whey protein and fruit, peanut butter and jelly on white (white bread for quick carbs)

    Dinner: Top sirloin steak (any trim meat will do such as fish or fillet as well), sweet potatoe and cup of mixed vegetables

    Bedtime snack: 1 cup cottage cheese and fruit if you want

    eating like this is time consuming and expensive but the gains are well worth it. This is a medium level calorie day at only about 3,400 kcal. protein is about 350ish so this would be perfect for you since your only 140lbs and should get 2 - 2.5 g protein per lb of body wt. also don't drink your calories!!!! water water water! i modify my diet from day to day because i find it too hard and boring to follow an extremely strict diet but i try to keep it as close to perfect as i can. If you find it too hard allow yourself a cheat day but don't go crazy and remember moderation! I've taken up too much of this page so if you have any questions i've subscribed to this thread to just let me know

    get the fruit out. fruit sugar bypasses the liver and goes straight to fat cells

    The only fruits i ever use are bananas for K that i mix with my protein shake before my workout and i put grapes or pineapple for fiber with my cottage cheese. Gotta have the bananas cause i get bad cramps and try to get as much K as possible, between bananas and tomatoes it seems to help.
