I work a typical desk job. I wake up at 5:30, take the bus to work.
I drink a 2 scoop Combat protein shake when I get in at 7:15, and a bowl of oatmeal.
I go to the gym at 11, and eat lunch immediately when I get back. 1 can of white chicken chili (Campbell's Home Style) and a serving of instant rice.
I also have about 20 gummy bears before and after the workout to keep my blood sugar up.
Then I get home at about 4:30 and eat a snack. A 3 egg omelet with some meat usually.
Then I have dinner. Last night was shrimp scampi, other nights we may have a mexican casserol or something. between 500-1000 calories depending on the meal.
Then I have a snack in the evening, trail mix and cottage cheese or something.
The problem is, at the end of the day, i'm barely at 200g of protein, and I've only eaten about 2400 calories. Where do I get my extra 1000 calories and 100g of protein? Do i need mass gainer shakes or something for snacks after breakfast and lunch? I have lots of meetings so eating can be tough, but I am not even sure where to start at this point.
My goals are 300-400g protein at about 3900 calories. I balance the carbs and fats among the remaining calories after protein.
