My mealplan. 8am - 2 whole eggs and 10 egg whites (scrambled) & 50g porage (uncooked weight). 1 tablespoon Udos Choice Oil (non fish oil) 11am - 50g whey with 300ml skimmed milk & 2 tablespoons of peanut butter 2pm - 10 - 12oz (uncoked weight) Steak or chicken & 100g rice (uncooked weight) & brocolli 4pm (preworkout) - weight gainer (for carbs) with water. 5g each of glutamine, BCAAs & creatine. 6pm (postworkout) - 50g whey with water. 10g each of glutamine, BCAAs & creatine. 7pm - evening meal (mostly consists of meat or chicken with rice or pots) 1 tablespoon Udos Choice Oil (non fish oil) 9pm - snack; nuts, choc. etc 11pm - 50g whey with 300ml skimmed milk I change this as and when I need more or less, but it's basically the same. This mealplan has reduced my bodyfat from 29.9% to 16%, I'm much stronger, since I have built quality muscle mass and I am able to maintain 20 stone on this as well. Hope this helps, but it's only a guide, since as a lot of people have already said different things work for different people. Good luck. Richard H.

You guys eat circle around me Here's my typical day" Breakfast - oatmeal or cereal with 2%milk, maybe small juice snack...sometimes...a bag of chips, water or soda lunch - A meat sub with chips and a soda.. sometimes China buffet or italian dish afternoon, prior to workout - maybe a protein shake or a sandwich evening, post workout - wife may cook - typical is spaghetti or chicken, rice and veggie If she does not cook then its probably a tin of tuna and sandwich and water I know its not a good diet for what i do and I want to change, but recently life is so hectic its hard to find time

TBowman: Could you get yourself some protein/flabjack bars and have them as a snack during the day? They would help I think if you are hectic busy. I know they do for me! MT

Don't usually enter this forum but I thought i'd check it out. I'm currently just over 11 stone and find it hard to gain weight on my current diet! This is what I eat every day monday to friday with no exceptions: 7am - 100g oats, 30g whey 10am - 150g chicken, 100g pasta (uncooked weight) 1pm - 150g chicken, 100g pasta (uncooked weight) 3pm - 100g oats, 30g whey 6.30 - home cooked meal, loads of fresh veg + meat PWO - 40g whey, 60g maltodextrin 11pm - 100g oats, 30g whey It seems like i'm eating sh1tloads more than some of you lot at half the weight and cannot gain! I supplement with fish oil caps and a few other bits and bobs.

30gram of whey is only around 23gram of protein? most of your protein comes from whey. looks like your having around 200grams of protein per day, if you got fast metabolism you need to up protein calories and carbs. aim for over 200 gram protein, 300+ carbs and 3500+ calories 7am - 100g oats, 30g whey - 60g carbs, 20g pro 10am - 150g chicken, 100g pasta (uncooked weight) 50g pro, 60g carb 1pm - 150g chicken, 100g pasta (uncooked weight) 50g pro, 60g carb 3pm - 100g oats, 30g whey 60 carb, 20 pro 6.30 - home cooked meal, loads of fresh veg + meat 50 carb, 20 pro PWO - 40g whey, 60g maltodextrin 20 pro, 50 carb 11pm - 100g oats, 30g whey 60 carb, 20 pro total pro 200, carbs 400, calories 3500 ???? id switch whey for solid protein source instead then have whey protein inbetween meals or switch to protein or weight gainer.

100g oats is around 15g of protein and 65g of carbs - so each shake would be about 35-40g of protein. 100g pasta is 75g of carbs and 7g of protein- So each meal is 50-60g of protein and 75g carbs. When i went over my diet im sure i worked it out at around 400g carbs and 230-250g protein (also depending on if i used milk in the shakes instead of water) I could try adding more solid protein, maybe cottage cheese. But time is an issue and i dont have long to prepare meals, also i cant eat anything solid when i wake up else ill throw up.

id add a solid protein before bed, as your only having whey after your workout which is relatively quick release protein, id also add some fat to it to slow digestion down at night to help keep anabolic. i usually have freid eggs before bed.

^^^^^^^^ LOL, you have a point. I don't write it down but think we may be getting too concerned about exact quantities and figures! MT
