    and not a single macro was listed...
    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.

    Here you go mate:

    >>>Calculating Calorie & Macronutrient Needs<<<

    Have a read and work out your macros from there.
    This will give not only yourself, but others who can help; an idea of how much carbs, protein, fat and total kcals you are taking in necessary for you to bulk.

    you also have no need to eat that often unless you like too. You also can train fasted which a lot of people do. I would hate to get up at 530 to eat.

    you dont need that much protein.
    150-160 grams is sufficient
