    Looks like you are over training big time. You need some rest days to grow. Try one on one off or two on one off. If you keep that schedule up you will burn out. Krooc is correct you need to focus on your diet and make sure you are getting enough calories to grow.

    VERY important!... because when you eat at the same times every single day and at consistent rates your body will adapt to that. Your body will say ok lets take all this food that just came in and take everything possible out of it because we got some more coming very soon. Your body is very smart and will digest according to how often it gets fed. Dont mess up his schedule or he wont be happy.

    eating till you throw up is useless..Eat small evenly spaced out meal to meet your calorie requirments for the day..

    What did you eat today roughly?

    Okay, i would first ditch the cereal here and eat oatmeal as your doing in meal 2. Are you sure its 90 grams of carbs total? So my suggestion would be oats/milk/whey

    8pm: Cereals, QUAKER, Instant Oatmeal, Raisin and Spice, prepared
    162g (carb33g, fat 2g, pro 3g, cal 162)
    1 scoop pro whey (carb2.5g, fat1.5, pro23, cal112)
    skimmed milk 200ml( carb12.3, fat0.1, pro8.7, cal120)
    Total: carb47.3, fat3.6, pro34.7, cal 394
    Same as above if you want to ditch they whey you can use another protien source like egg whites or chicken and sub oats with rice. I would ditch the raisin and spice oatmeal b/c of the sugar content. but thats me.

    Pre workout: 1 scoop pro whey(carb2.5g, fat1.5, pro23, cal112)
    skimmed milk 200ml( carb12.3, fat0.1, pro8.7, cal120)
    Total: carb14.8, fat0.6, pro31.7, cal232
    In this meal i would add med-slow carbs with whey. or even a whole meal cuz you have alot shakes soo far in your diet you could do rice,yams,oats,grits,bread and a protein source


    11pm: 1 scoop pro whey(carb2.5g, fat1.5, pro23, cal112)
    skimmed milk 200ml( carb12.3, fat0.1, pro8.7, cal120)
    Total: carb14.8, fat1.6, pro31.7, cal232
    PWO i would add carbs either Hi gi ( like dex or fruits) or low ( oats, yams etc)

    2am: Fish, tuna, light, canned in water, drained solids
    308g (carb0, fat2g, pro 78g cal358)
    8 egg whites
    (cal 116, pro24)
    Total: carb0, fat2, pro102, cal 474
    I would add carbs hear and Choose either egg whites or tuna here 102 grams of protein is way to much in one sitting

    5am: Fish, tuna, light, canned in water, drained solids
    308g (carb0, fat2g, pro 78g cal358)
    100g Brown Rice
    (cal370 carbs 80 pro7.9 fat2.9)
    Total: carb80, fat4.9, pro 85.9, cal 728
    Tuna does not have 85 grams of protein... you might need to recalculate this number

    7.45am: multigrain bread
    2slice (carb44g, fat2g, pro 8g, cal 220)
    cheddar cheese
    1slice (carb3g, fat4g pro4g, cal 60g)
    1 scoop pro whey ](carb2.5g, fat1.5, pro23, cal112)
    Total: carb49.5, fat7.5, pro35, cal392
    In this meal i would probally do a pro/fat meal like a shake and some fish oil, or cottage cheese and fish oil etc..

    also 40lbs in 4 months is very high goal. you might want to readjust your goal there but good luck.
