So my breakfast is also my post workout meal as I eat it about 30 minutes if that before my workout.
The two main breakfast meals I rotate between are;
Porridge + peanut butter sandwiches
100% natural rolled oats – ½ cup, 1 cup whole milk, 1 scoop protein powder, 2 tbsp golden syrup.
1 piece of fruit.
1 pint of whole milk.
2 peanut butter sandwiches.
2 protein shakes & multivitamin, fish oil tablets & creatine & BCCA's. This includes my supplements straight after the gym obviously.
1675 calories
118g protein
167g carbohydrates (73g sugars)
320mg calcium
63g fat (30g saturated)
53mg cholesterol
320mg sodium

4 eggs, 4 table spoons of milk, whisk and microwave for 2-3 minutes, 2 slices of whole wheat bread, butter.
1 piece of fruit.
1 pint of whole milk.

121g protein
250mg calcium
121g carbohydrates (35g sugars)

I am bulking and aim for 4,000 calories a day I can't really eat 6 full meals like everyone else though but I have 3 large meals and 3 fairly small ones but still larger than snacks. Just wondering what you all think.

Are my proteins/carbs/calories too high in my breakfast/post workout meals?

Ditch your meal plan and develop a diet that combines sound nutrition with the foods you enjoy by eating when you see fit in the portions that allow you to achieve your macronutrient and caloric needs while providing sufficient micronutrients, energy and satiety. One can never forget that nutrition is a tool, not a restraint; the enjoyment of life should always come first. Psychological, sociological and emotional health should never be threatened by the attempt to increase physiological health.

I know that I need to be hitting my macros for calories, carbs, proteins and fats I was just wondering if it's too much for one meal and should be spread out more that's all surly if I overload my body with too many nutrients at once some will not get stored because of high volume or I will still get a insulin spike from the carbs even if complex because of the high volume? I'm probably way off as usual but yeah

Your insulin spiking is as relevant as the colour of the condom you wear when you have sex.

It doesn't matter when you eat as long as you get your macro\calorie intake. Yum the food you eat is delicious Making me hungry!
Is it ok that I mesure my macro's in percentages? 40\40\20 I know Emma in the sticky's said don't but I find it much easier this way due to the calorie count website I use that tracks the amount of protein\carb\fats in percent.
