here is goes guys...this would be the pinnical of what I could consume......
A lifting day (typical)

1 whole wheat bagel
10:00-11:15 Workout

1:00
1/2 lean ground turkey
half a box of annie all organic mac and chesse.
3:30
1 can of homel chilli
1 pint of milk with micellar casien
6:00
Two tuna melts on whole wheat bagels with cheese (little light mayo)
8:30 (this is my dinner, I get home from work around 8pm)
3/4 pound of fish (any kind) or red meat
2 sweet potates
large portion of light wilted spinach with olive oil
11:00
1 1/2 cups of cottage cheese.
(some carb here, can't think of one that will go with cottage cheese.
I will post macros if you want. I know that I probably need only around 3,500, but remember this would be an "on" cycle diet, I choose to do one.
Your having a hard time putting food down because the way you set your meals up I can tell they taste like ****.
Why not try making a yummy breakfast burrito with a whole wheat tortilla (not one of those saturated fat nightmare ones, try tortilla factory) and some top round (trimmed super lean) or 97% lean ground beef. Yum... You can make a big fattie and put some eggs, rice, red pepper, spinach, black beans, onions, etc. Add a bowl of fruit with that, and you have a great tasting breakfast.
Ditch that malto and have a couple of bananas and a half cup of oatmeal post workout man.
The mac n cheese with ground turkey is probably okay if you add a ton of veggies in there (dunno about the macros on it, or saturated fat content but I'm guessing you wouldn't bother if it was THAT bad). Just mix in some spinach, broccoli, peppers, whatever, and add some tabasco sauce to cover the flavor.
I do canned chili too (a lowfat turkey kind from trader joes), though I add about 3 cups of lentils to mine
and lots of veggies. :thumbsup:
I'd ditch the tuna melts, think up something better. If you want a sandwich that's portable use those la tortilla factory whole wheat nonfat tortillas and make a "wrap" with grilled chicken, lean hamburger, top round, whatever - add in some grilled peppers, steamed asparagus, lettuce and a small dash of light ranch dressing if you want - great!
Try having whole wheat pasta instead of sweet potatos (actually a lot of people make the mistake here of going for sweet potatos when yams are what they are thinking of - yes there is a difference) and make a spinach basil garlic pesto (heavy on the spinach). The fish is ok, but be careful man, too much can be bad for you... when I explain bioamplification to people they usually get pretty turned off by animal fats (and well you should).
My bulking secret is two gallons of 1% milk a day
Oh yeah, cottage cheese with crushed pineapple, lemon juice, splenda, and a mix of ground sunflower and flax seeds is awesome.
