Dinner whatever mom cooking if not usually another chicken breast with broccoli or whatever my moms cooking as long it is not deep fried.

Well, there are a few things you could definitely improve upon in your diet. For instance, instead of instant oatmeal with the maple or cinnamon flavor which is loaded with added sugars, you should use plain regular old fashioned or quick oats. Add splenda or just cinnamon if you must have the sweetness. You could even add a scoop of protein powder to your oatmeal which would not only make it sweet enough, but it will give you the much needed amount of protein you need. Secondly, one egg white isn't enough! PERIOD.
Lastly, this community is very helpful and willing to share ideas or give out advice, but as for asking someone to take the time to give you a free specialized plan when many of us make an honest living doing so is a bit of a stretch.
Also, you havent given much information on which someone could make a proper recommendation...for example: height, weight, bf%, goals, current training, lifestyle daily caloric exertion...all of these play major roles in preparing an efficient meal plan for a client.
I suggest you look in the weight loss or weight training section and search around for similar posted diets in individuals journals that match criteria similar to yours. Many people on a budget usually start here as a good base.

What your eating sounds just fine. No one is goibg to make a diet plan for you. Track your calories and find out how much your eating. Do you gave a smartphone? There's tons of free calorie tracking apps. I use mynetdiary. These apps will tell you how much you need to eat to gain or lose weight.

Hmm I eat in 2 meals what you eat in a day...not enough cals, doesn't even sound like 2000 cals....to gain muscle you need to eat more than you burn, pretty simple....IMO p90x will not put a lot of mass on your frame, only good ole barbell and dumbbells...P90x is great for burning fat....as mentioned 1 egg white isn't enough at all... lemon for a snack? Noo
I'll post my sample diet for you but I'm 5"10 204 pds,13% bf...so it won't necessarily work for you but you get an idea, I'm here to help not charge people who want guidance ...
