The facts:
I'm 5'7", 150lbs, about 12% body fat. I'm 23 years old. I live in LA. I'm a writer. I've been working out consistently since I was 18 years old and 105lbs.
Goals:
170lbs @ current body fat by my birthday: November 4, 2008. I vowed that I would be 170 by the time I'm 24. So, by god, I will be 170lbs by my birthday.
Current Diet:
Approx 4,000 calories per day, ingested as follows...
- 8:30AM: 1 cup egg whites, 1 cup dry oats mixed with H2O, 1 medium banana -- 626cal, 6g fat, 85g carbs, 37g protein
- 11:00AM: 2 scoops BSN True-Mass weight gainer, 2 cups skim milk, 2tbls Skippy natural peanut butter -- 744cal, 28g fat, 77g carbs, 58g protein
- 1:00PM: 8oz boneless skinless chicken breast, 1 medium potato -- 421cal, 5g fat, 43g carbs, 48g protein
- 3:30PM: 2 scoops BSN True-Mass weight gainer, 2 cups skim milk, 2tbls Skippy natural peanut butter -- 744cal, 28g fat, 77g carbs, 58g protein
- 6:00PM: 8oz boneless skinless chicken breast, 1 medium potato -- 421cal, 5g fat, 43g carbs, 48g protein
- 8:30PM: Post-workout smoothie, 400cals, 45g carbs, 35g protein
- 11:00PM: 2 scoops BSN Syntha-6 casein protein, 3 scoops Cytocarb -- 558cals, 12g fat, 70g carbs, 44g protein
TOTAL: 3913 calories, 99g fat, 425g carbs, 327g protein
I've been on this diet for about 2 months now, and have gained 12lbs (most of it was regained muscle, as I was sick for a month and lost a lot of weight), maintaining a consistent body fat percentage. I added the 4 tablespoons of natural peanut butter yesterday -- but I'm thinking about dropping it, as it significantly ups my fat intake. What would you all suggest?
Current Workout:
I'm currently running the BGB Workout (Thanks Built!). Yesterday began my second week on the program. It's a great one so far.
Any comments, criticism, suggestions, and/or words of motivation are welcome!
