I've been on XF in the past and my diet wasn't that great ... with my next round of XF coming up, I'm taking the time to plan out my meals and thinking ahead ... with diet in check I should maximize my gains

So, for a 5'11" 205# lifter this is the diet I have worked out so far ... this is in no way set in stone and I appreciate all constructive feedback

Pre-workout (4:00am):
Whey Iso
.5c Raw Oats
Post-workout(6:30am):
Whey Iso
1c Raw Oats
Meal 1 (8:00am):
5 egg whites
1 whole egg
2 slices whole wheat bread
8oz skim milk
Meal 2 (10:00am):
Whey Iso
1c Raw Oats
Meal 3 (12:00pm):
.25# ground beef/turkey/chicken/steak
1c brown rice/whole wheat pasta
Meal 4 (2:00pm):
Whey Iso
1c Raw Oats
Meal 5 (4:00pm):
Protein bar (only if I'm hungry and need something to hold me over)
Meal 6 (6:00pm):
.25# ground beef/turkey/chicken/steak
1c brown rice/whole wheat pasta
Meal 7 (8:00pm):
Ultra Peptide
Whey Iso
8oz Skim Milk

calories are ~3650 and macro is approx 40/38/22 (almost the 40/40/20 I am trying to maintain during the cycle)

thanks in advance for any input

This looks great. You should get impressive results with this. I don't see much fat there, maybe add coconut oil. But if it sums up to 40-40-20, you're safe!

good to hear ... the fats will mostly come from the milk, eggs, and meats ... looking at this more, I may also swap the rice/pasta with vegetables on some days

I would ADD vegetables. Greens preferably.
