Bulking diet improvements?

[Acoustic]

Need some suggestions how to improve my bulking diet.

Typical Schedule:

6 AM: Bowl of Cherios with whole milk or bowl of sugarfree oatmeal with whole milk. To drink I either have coffee or juice.

12 PM: (school food) Main dish (meat or something along the lines of that) with fruit, milk, and some sort of side dish like baked french fries. Sometimes a wheat roll

4 PM: Wheat bread sandwich with 2 slices of deli chicken, lettuce, cheese and a glass of water.

5:30 PM: After workout whey protein shake (2 scoops) with whole milk.

7 PM: Main dish (meat) with a wheat roll, pickle, ect.

I eat peanutbutter whole grain crackers, bannanas, and other sorts throughout the day as well. I go to school from 8-3 so I would need some reccomendations on some sort of small snack bar if I need to eat during then. Also, I am 6'1 165 pounds and am on the 5x5 program.

Wow, dude no offense but that right there is why you're 165.

6: cereal is OK, throw in some toast and eggs as well as oatmeal and you'll be golden. Also a early morning protein shake is always a good idea. 1 scoop suffices. You should be unrealistically full from this meal, make yourself a nice omelette and put it on toast.

12: Whatever meat portion your having now, add another portion to that. I'd also recommend a pb&j sammich on whole wheat. Prolly a triple decker. And Alotta milk. Have some nuts with that as well.

4: make that 2 sandwiches on wheat bread, or add more chicken. Throw down an RTD protein shake and then drink water.

5:30: good, but another pb&j would also help here.

7: just make sure you're really full, take I. Some quality carbs, pasta... Potatoes etc. large glasses (yes glasseS) of milk.

Some weight gainer protein bars are good meal replacements.

No need to apologize, your helping me lol.

On the AM, since I am on a tight schedule.. I am gonna have to stick with either a bowl of oatmeal or a bowl of cereal with a protein shake and toast with peanut butter on top? No time for that egg and I am not too big of a fan of em.

Can't add another peanutbutter and jelly sandwich but I could prolly through in a protein bar in between am and lunch.

Can certainly add more chicken to that sandwhich. Not sure if I can do two. What do you meen by RTD protein shake?

5:30 if right after my workout and usually the protein shake fills me up with 2 scoops in a full glass of milk.

I prolly need to start drinking milk at night or something, not a fan but I know I need it. Thanks for the help, feedback on this "New" schedule would be appreciated.

1) Go with the oatmeal, it has more carbs and denseness. Throw in some peanut butter as well and stir it in. Thats gonna make a real solid and binding meal. The toast and shake is good! Don't worry about the eggs thing.

2) Good idea. Look into detour bars. Fairly inexpensive and has a nice profile.

3) Ready To Drink. Like a muscle milk shake.

4)Dont let your main sources of protein be all from shakes. You have to eat food to grow.

5) Yes, look into the GOMAD. Gallon Of Milk A Day. It's gonna up your calorie and protein intake like crazy. At your weight don't be afraid to eat, well basically whatever the hell you want. And eat alot of it. Check out the diet sections here on EF.
