* Meal 1-16 oz milk,1tbsp olive oil,weight gainer
* Meal 2- either 8 oz pasta or 2oz pasta w/4 oz meat
* Meal 3- 3 oz lunch meat with 2 slice bread and 8 oz chocolate milk
* Meal 4- 4 oz chicken with 4 oz pasta
* Meal 5- Peanut Bar
* Meal 6- (POW) 2 scoop protein with 1 scoop dextorse
* Meal 7- 8 oz potato or 1 cup oatmeal
* Meal 8- Dinner with family varies from night to night But always some type of meat with either some type of rice or pasta. Im Italian so lots of chicken and pasta.
* Meal 9- Peanut bar or oatmeal
* Meal 10- 16 oz milk, 1tbsp olive oil, weight gainer

Try getting in a whole meal for breakfast. Go with oatmeal and eggwhites/eggs instead of the weight gainer.

I did this diet a week ago..and meal 1 the weight gainer shake i had at 5:55 when i woke up and around 630 I had meal 2. Now that school is over, should i just combined meal 1 and 2 and have it a whole meal like idunk42 suggested??


thanks guys

i would put protein in meal 7, and try and avoid shakes as much as possible, except postworkout. JMO

I am too lazy right now to go on fitday and total up your kcals for you, but if you goto www.fitday.com and enter in all that stuff and then post the totals here, that would be great. One thing I will comment on however is that you shouldn't be eating the same thing everyday, especially if you a classic 4-5 day split. You don't expend the same energy doing arms as you would legs, and accordingly don't have the same energy requirements on those differing days. So although that appears to be a good base (minus the shakes and peanut bars) you need to adapt your diet for your different training days.

I agree. Ixnay the bars, and just go for natty PB.

On combining the first two meals. do it, excepted I would just hold off on the protein and throw it in with some oats instead of pasta. Better fiber and source of carbs. And just drink some skim milk. PLUS what type of weight gainer are you taking before bed broham? If its got a lot of sugar your fat content is just gonna go up... Might wanna check out one of the board sponsors for a Cassien type product/ slow release protein 4 before bed...
just my .02 cents....
