I have been mixing and matching foods just to find something i can use daily without worrying about it. So far this is what i have:

Meal 1: 2 Bananas, 40G whey, Oatmeal

Workout

Meal 2: 2 cups rice cooked plain white, 1 protein bar

Meal 3: 2 cups rice cooked plain white

Meal 4: romaine lettuce, 1 stalk brocoli, 1 cup fat free cottage cheese

Meal 5: 8oz chicken OR fish (alternate days)

Meal 6: 2 Bananas

Meal 7(before sleep): 50g whey before sleep

Meal content: FAT: 31.5,CAL: 2609.8,PRO: 223.3,CARB: 401.6

Target : FAT: 43g, Carb: 563g, Pro: 225g, Cal: 3497

If there is anything wrong with this plan please let me know. I have lowered certain areas below target becuase I clearly need to loose body fat in some areas and until the muscle is put on this will have to do. Thanks in advnace.

I would have veggies instead of the rice

A lot of people have been telling me to get 80-100grams of carbs after my workout and that rice absorbs quicky to the muscles..Is this not true?

I thought it was protien that you wanted to get quickly to your muscles. since that is what they are made of.

you would want fiber too, so at least brown rice
