Could I be lacking? Why am I so tired?

[nobody1000]

For about three or four months now, I've been tired as helllll, In that time, I've been changing my diet around for bulking. THinking about it earlier today, I thought that maybe I'm not getting enough sodium or some other electrolyte(spelling?) or mineral. I get plenty of sleep (7-10hours a night)
Here are the things I eat daily....
1)cell mass creatine and Centrum multi-vitamin
2)100 Gold Standard Whey
3)Natty pb (3-4TBSPN daily)
4)apples (1-2 daily)
5)banana (2 daily)
6)skim milk (4-6 cups)
7)Chicken
8)Beef sirloin )occassionally)
9)Cottage Cheese
10)Wheat bread
11)Oatmeal
12)fast food (like 1-2 times a month)

and thats it. Does anyone else have similar problems? Im sure Im getting enough fat and am doing a 20/40/40ratio. Does anyone see any obvious nutrients that I am lacking? IF not, should I see a doctor?
thanks in advance.

yeh, the vitamins ur body is not getting is prolly causing some of your lack of energy...try getting plenty of carbs and b vitamins also

Ditto.

Also, why don't you post your meals like this

Meal 1 -
Meal 2-
etc.

It's really hard to see from a list whether you are eating the right things at the right times. Also, in addition to adding veggies to your diet you might want to add some other complex carbs like brown rice and potato.

Classic sign of overworking? You didn't post your routine, which could be the cause as well.

Post your meals, training, and body stats... Have you seen a doctor?? Last year I was feeling exhausted all the time and it turned out that I had Mono / Epstein-Barr.
