9Am: usually 2 cups of oatmeal, or about 8 egg whites.

12pm: around 404 grams chicken breast, and a protein shake with 56g protein.

2pm: usually a salad, some fruit to bump up the carbs before workout.

3pm: usually a turkey sandwich, and pre workout mix:

5pm: another protein shake right after workout, and a 20 juice/ rice crispy treat to jump start the carbs. then usually very little carbs the rest of the night.

6pm: usually 404g chicken breast again, salad, and some cottage cheese.

9pm. 2 cups cottage cheese.

10-11pm: the last thing before bed another protein shake.


I know this is maybe not perfect but its still def sufficient for growing.

thats not horrible, i can see why you've put a little bitta weight on.. good for u.. but we can improve.. do me a fav, do some math for me

Men: BMR = 66 + ( 6.23 x weight in pounds ) + ( 12.7 x height in inches ) - ( 6.8 x age in year )



once you have that number, you can multiply it by an activity number to figure out your daily caloric expenditure, be honest here as this is the very cornerstone of your diet, if you are between two of the below activity levels then just multiply by a number in between them

To determine your total daily calorie needs, multiply your BMR by the appropriate activity factor, as follows:


If you are sedentary (little or no exercise) : Calorie-Calculation = BMR x 1.2
If you are lightly active (light exercise/sports 1-3 days/week) : Calorie-Calculation = BMR x 1.375
If you are moderatetely active (moderate exercise/sports 3-5 days/week) : Calorie-Calculation = BMR x 1.55
If you are very active (hard exercise/sports 6-7 days a week) : Calorie-Calculation = BMR x 1.725
If you are extra active (very hard exercise/sports & physical job or 2x training) : Calorie-Calculation = BMR x 1.9
