Little advice on my bulking diet....

5'9, 19 years old, 130 lbs....

There's a lot of the same thing simply because I live in a college dorm and its hard to get clean food in the dining hall (not to mention figuring out how many cals you're taking in), so i'm basically limited to what I can heat up in a microwave in my dorm room or take to class with me.

9:00am Breakfast: 2/3 cup (dry) oatmeal, 1 cup milk, 5-6 egg whites, natty PB
-420 cals, 34g protein, 55g carbs, 8g fat

11:00am Large piece of fruit, beef jerky
-200 cals, 18g protein, 25g carbs, 3g fat

1:00pm 2/3 cup oats, 5 oz chicken breast, some nuts and a little milk on top
-375 cals, 33g protein, 42g carbs, 8g fat

2:15-3:15 WORKOUT

3:15pm PWO shake, 27g whey, 45g dextrose/maltodextrin
-300 cals

4:30pm 2/3 cup oats, 5 oz chicken breast, some nuts and a little milk on top
-375 cals, 33g protein, 42g carbs, 8g fat

6:00pm Tuna sandwich on Ezekiel bread, and some PB
-350 cals, 32g protein, 35g carbs, 8g fat

8:30pm Bowl of Total Protein with non-fat yogurt, nuts and some oatbran
-330 cals, 27g protein, 30g carbs, 10g fat

10:45pm Cottage cheese and natty PB
-200 cals, 20g protein, 8g carbs, 10g fat

TOTAL: 2530 cals, 224g protein, 282g carbs, 57g fat

Any thoughts? I know its not a ton of cals, but i'm only 130lbs right now.....

I would say everything looks good bro. If you dont gain just add more to it. Make it 1c oats instead of 2/3 and such. I would also look into some fish oil caps so you can vary your EFA's since most of your fats come from nuts or PB.

It does look good. If you're not gaining, then add a bit (I repeated the above). I wouldn't make one meal alot larger, but add a little to most meals (if you can). This way your body doesn't get too much at one sitting and add fat. I'd only up the cal count about every week and a half to give it a chance.

Personally, I would toss in some veggies here and there.

where is the brocolli?? PM for so I can tell you how important brocolli is.

 

[Cardinal234]

I've cut back on veggies because they make me really full and harder to eat the next meal. Plus I figure I get a lot of fiber form oatmeal, bread, pb, fruit, etc.

Looks descent to me.

I think brocolli has omega stuff? and I think it has flavanoids (spl?--antioxidants)?
