Help Me Gain 30#

Don't swap out the eggs for a shake. The eggs are probably your most micro dense food currently and im sure windex would agree that you should not drop eggs for a shake unless your blood work shows an increase in blood cholesterol.

If it were me, I would add some oats to the shake proposed by windex and take it down pre workout in place of your turkey meal or maybe have the shake post workout, push meal 5 to meal 6 and just drop the bagel and PB.

I like what windex is recommending and anyone knowledgable will recommend something very similar. He started off by mentioning micros from veggies and fruits and thats what I would also suggest changing first and foremost. Add in the fruits and veggies to your current plan and see how everything changes. The volume from veggies may force you to drop some food and if so, you would then turn to even more caloric dense foods like fattier cuts of meat as mentioned above. I just wouldn't change too many things at once because you won't know what made the difference.

My wording was a bit off, I didn't mean for it to sound like I was getting rid of my eggs. That's my favorite part haha.

I was going to add the shake in at night. I can't do shakes during the day time, I'll be so much more bloated for my workout.

Things I'm adding this week will be the shake with veggies in it. Some carrots and squash too in some meals (small amount). Getting rid of egg whites and adding in 1 more egg.

Nice! Another trick, you can take a couple handfuls of spinach, I do like 4-5 cups in a pan, add about 1-2tbsp of olive oil and wilt the spinach up. It'll shrink down to like 1/2 cup worth and there you have veggies and added healthy fats from the oil.
