    Good meal! Try and stick with low sodium ham if you must have it. How much fat is in that ham though? You have 17g fat counted, yet i'm only counting 9g from eggs, 2.5g from oats, and 1 to 2g from the shake??

    12:15p
    1 pouch tuna, 1 cup spinach leafs, 1 TBSP EVOO, 1 whey protein shake, 1 banana
    48/31/19/505

    I'd drop the banana. I don't personally have a problem with the shake here because it's supplementing an already very good meal, so I say keep it. However, i'd switch from whey to a protein blend (whey/casein/egg) or just straight casein

    3:30p
    1/2 cup rice, 4 oz chicken breast, cup green beans
    37/80/5/495

    If you brought the chicken up to 6oz or even 8, you could lose the shake in the previous meal. I know I said I have no problem with it, but if you have the opportunity to get the protein from real food, i'd go that route. Not a huge deal though. 80g carbs??? From what, 1/2 cup rice? Check your macros on that one bro, way off. 1/2 cup dry is usually about 30g or so - and you didn't specify dry or cooked. In any event, i'd like to see about 50g carbs here

    Workout

    6pm PWO Gainer Shake
    60/85/8/650

    Drop this and go with straight whey + 1 cup oats

    8pm
    Chicken Breast, Protein Shake, Romaine Salad, tbsp EVOO

    Shake probably isn't necessary here, but again it's accompanying a good meal so it certainly won't hurt either.

    11pm
    Cup Cottage Cheese, Casein shake

    Nice

    Macros look decent to me, I like them. Carbs can prob come down a bit and probably already are since your pre workout rice macro is way off from what I can tell. make that meal 50g instead of 80g, drop that banana from the earlier meal and you should be gtg

    Thoughts?
