That looks like an awful lot of carbs, but if you figure out the macros, you can see for yourself.

Throw all your foods into fitday.com. It's an awesome website that allows you to see how many calories, g's of fat/prot/carbs each food contains and gives you percent ratios of your diet. If you know how many cals you need to be taking in, and to what ratios, then use that website to adjust your diet.

K, well that's gonna be your problem right there.

You need to figure out your BMR (type in google BMR Calculator), then you add it into the Harris Benedict formula (google again), and that is your maintainence cals. Then add about 300 cals to that. That would be a good number to do a light bulk without too much fat gain. Just use the website to figure out how many cals are in your diet. and keep you protein between 1.5-3g per pound of body weight. You do know though that with a bulk you will gain some fat. You have to cycle, bulk then cut. It is very ineffecient and slow to build muscle and no fat.
