I'm currently on a bulk(started a little over a month ago), and have recently hit a wall in my diet. Now I find it hard to cram in all the calories I need to gain, and at times even dread preparing and eating meals!!! Consequently, I "slacked off" a little bit and lost a pound or two. What makes it harder is that during the first month of my bulk my diet wasn't very clean(decent all around, but with a daily cheat meal
) , but I'm now trying to get my butt straight and eat right, however my appetite is keeping me from reaching my caloric goal of about 3000kcal. FYI, I'm 5'10", 167lbs, and my typical meal plan is as follows:
MEAL 1Calories/P/C/F)
2 servings of cereal (440/10/76/12) - most of the fat is from the pecans in it
1/2 carton of lowfat milk (200/15/25/5)
small apple (63/0/16/0)
MEAL 2
1 serving of chicken breast (140/27/0/3)
approx. 1 tblsp of olive oil (120/0/0/14)
1 cup boiled leafy green veggies(40/6/5/0)
1.5 cup pasta (420/14/80/2)
MEAL 3
1 scoop protein powder (130/27/2/1)
Gatorade powder(240/0/60/0)
5g creatine
2 tblsp glucose powder (165/0/44/0)
MEAL 4
1 serving of rice (305/6/66/1)
1 serving of chicken breast (140/27/0/3)
small apple (63/0/16/0)
1 cup lowfat milk (80/6/10/2)
MEAL 5
1 carton of lowfat milk (400/30/50/10)
4-5 fish oil capsules (60/0/0/7)
TOTALS 3006kcals
168g protein
450g carbs
60g fat
Would it be okay to play around with my current macronutrient ratio and substitute some carbs with fat(like peanut butter in place of apple)? Also how much of an impact would calorie-dense carbs like dextrose, etc have on someone with normal metabolism? Any suggestions/tips would be great. Thanks!!
