Hi folks. Got a new blackberry and though i'd take a pic of my daily intake of food from yesterday to see what peeps on BB.com think. Basically a uni student and tryna gain weight on a very strict budget. Not really too into the science of nutrition i.e eating certain carbs pwo etc. I just try to eat plenty of protein, moderate fats and moderate carbs. Food is far from fancy, but things you gotta do when on budget lol.
Here it goes anyway let me know what you think. cheers
Breakfast/Pre workout
Oats and eggs
Postwork
Shake, nuts and raisins
3rd meal of the day, usually after some classes i come back to my room
rice and tuna (yuck, but great value protein/price)
4th meal
some chicken and veg
5th and usually my last unless i'm extra hungry.
Usually caesin shake, but was all out so boiled up some eggs
Let me know what you guys think, straight budget bulking lol

Nice bro, cooking skills are awful lol
According to my fitday log it is 217 grams of protein daily. I thought that was more than enough considering i weigh 180 almost.
8 eggs- 43 grams
2 scoops protein- 48 grams
can of tuna- 39 grams
8oz chicken- 67 grams
3 cups of milk- 24 grams
Works out to 221 grams, not including foods that also contain a little protein. This would be enough right?
Wavelength your meals are epic btw!Last edited by Aliman; 02-28-2010 at 04:00 AM.

That is enough protein. Remember the most important thing posted here yet...you said yourself that you are gaining weight and strength. If you are improving then things are alright. I have always said that if I eat 4,000 kcal and my weight is static for 1 month, then 4000 kcal is my maintaince intake. It means nothing that some program says 4600 or 3300 is what I need...the results are what matters.
