nothing?? come on, i spent ages doing this

You have two of these mate [img]/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Not bad, I would vote more veggies and meat, less whey. Would be more expensive of course. You’re getting maybe more than enough protein, but are you getting enough fat? Your carbs are probably fine considering your goal. The best test is to try it out and see where it gets you.

Adding more veggies never hurts though, and replacing some whey with meat would help out in my opinion, it would add a little fat too. Good luck!

What is your body weight and %bf? I personally like to get 1.0g to 1.5g of protein per pound of weight.

I can't eat a big meal before lifting. If I am eating "real" food it has to be about 1 hour before or I have a small shake before hand. I also like to have something during, like Amino Shooter.

Make sure you track your weight on a weekly basis to ensure your maintaining your desired weight.

Diet looks good. I love the ON whey protein!

Thanks for the reply guys, I need to weigh myself at the moment but i'm at around 150lbs and about 9% bf.
As for the meat and veggies thing, i reckon i'm gonna look at my options for this, i forgot to mention that I put lettuce with all the light meals i also eat bananas, nectarines and apples throughout the day. Which type of vegetation would you think im lacking?
Also I didn't add the fat references but you might be right that I'm not getting enough, i know its an underated energy source.
Thanks again,
