What is your goal?
What is your caloric intake?
What is your macro break down?
What is your current diet?

What food sources do you mostly utilize?
Are you allergic to any food sources? Are you lactose intolerant?

Food plans are a joke, you cannot follow a cookie cutter plan it will have to be different from every person based on their goals and metabolism.

Why do you cut out carbs after lunch? That is a huge myth

http://www.leangains.com/2011/06/is-late-night-eating-better-for-fat.html

a cup of veggies and rice is not a meal, that is a small snack. your diet seems like your lacking tons of food and calories in general and very void of fats.

NO need for a casein if you are meeting protein intake that is all that matters, just continue to eat your eggs, steak, chicken, and use whey when you cannot get whole food.

read these links:


Eat in a caloric surplus, meaning eating more kcals than you need to maintain in order to gain muscle, size, and strength.

Philosophies, Macro intake, training , and cardio articles for you to understand and help set up what you need to do before moving forward towards more supplements or advanced workout routines.

2 cups of rice and half a cup of oats as all your carbs is not very much and not even 100g tops a day, and again 3z of meat and 4 egg whites and a few scoops of whey with 1 whole eggs is very void of nutrients, and also calories.

you need to litreally double all your portions if you ever want to get past 160. You dont need 6 or 7 meals a day either 4-5 would be more than enough and actually better for muscle protein synthesis allowing protein levels to reach refractory stages before being spiked again.

Eddie, you need to calculate your Kcal needs in order to see how much Kcal you need to grow muscle. 500+Kcal to grow, 500-Kcal to cut. Otherwise it will just be geussing.
When you have your number, divide your macronutritions. (carbs/proteine/fat)

If you know that numbers, look up a food/Kcal calculator and fill in what you think you'll be able to eat. Not what you would eat in best case scenario, but what you really can and will eat in order to get to your Kcal and macro numbers.

a good plan would be exactly what the links show you if you read them. There is an outline for macro intake. I suggest you calculate your intake
get 1g/lb of protein at least 20% of your diet from fats and fill the rest with carbs.

Looks like you do not even consume 2000 kcals just by going off numbers, but again i am not using a program to do the work for you. There is no COOKIE CUTTER diet approach out there for everyone. if there was everyone would follow it. this is not the case the human body is too diverse.

Eating to much?
You want to grow don't you? Than you need to eat "to much". At least more than you need in order to give your muscles the nutrients they need to grow.

Chew your face off and train your ass off if you want to grow.

Bro you gotta gain a little fat to get big. When you reach the size you want then you just cut Down. There is no magic "gained 15 lbs of pure muscle with no fat"

Just not how it works. You can limit fat gain by eating a smaller surplus but muscle and weight will come along slower. Just eat and train hard get yolked then diet down

You could eat 100 calories 7 times a day that wont make you big or uncut
If you eat 3 times a day or 6 times a day it doesnt matter
Total calories do.

there's no exact number. you can get a rough estimate of a starting point, track your food intake with your weight and then adjust based on your goals. use this calculator and fill it out and use it as a starting point:http://iifym.com/iifym-calculator/

if you add too much fat, simply lower cals a bit. if you aren't gaining weight after a week or two, add cals a bit. it's all trial and error in the beginning

Bro u need to double or triple your food intake put some mass on then cut can't do both at once (well not very efficiently) and a 3oz serving of meat would just make me mad, I eat no less than 4 10-12oz servings of beef, fish or poultry a day on top of eating 6-8 eggs for breakfast.

Infact I'm bout to kill a pound of chicken breast 3 cups of broccoli and some cinnamon splenda oatmeal before bed

Well if you binge and eat a bunch of junk. But if you eat in a controlled manner why could you not eat a meal off course?
are you getting paid to hit macros?
I doubt it, and you will probably never make money off hitting them so why would moderation hurt?

Pre workout

Or at any time where there is a 5+ hour gap between meals

Probably not
Are you meeting your carb intake with just 2 cups?
What about fruits/veggies other carb sources?
What are your totals for carbs in a day? Can you allot 2 cups of brown rice? I would assume you could easily.

2 cups of brown rice is like 80g carbs
1/2 cup oatmeal is like 30g carbs
your barley eating 150g of carbs counting veggies.
Thats not a lot at all dude. And you want to get big and grow? your eating like a girl on this intake.

Do this.

3 whole eggs + 4 whites + 4 Pieces of Toast with 2 TBSP PB and 2 TBSP Jam
8oz Chicken/beef + 2 Cups Rice + 2 Tbsp Oil (if chicken) or 1 TBSP if Beef + Veggies
1 Scoop Whey + 6oz Yogurt + 2 Cups Trail Mix/Granola + 1 Banana + 2 TBSP Peanut Buter
8oz Chicken/Beef + 2 Cups Pasta + Veggies + 2 Tbsp Oil (if chicken) or 1 TBSP if Beef

If you want to do 2 bagels for Meal 1 that is fine too
