6oz of greek yogurt
1/2 cup of blueberries, mixed with the yogurt

1 serving of Results on Strength training days, 1 Serving of creatine 500 mixed with 1 cup of grape juice on other days.

8:45a.m

10:00a.m.
1 serving of Opticen mixed with 2 cups of skim milk.

11:00a.m.

The one big point you need to understand is that the QUANTITY of food you eat is considerably more important than the precise makeup of each little meal throughout the day. Your 'diet' looks fine, I guess, IF it's enough food to get the scale moving, which seems doubtful but who knows (3 eggs, 1 slice of toast, some yogurt for breakfast?? that's fine for my sister). I hate to see young, skinny guys worrying about eating "half a cup of black beans" and "half cup of almonds." You're missing the big picture. Yeah those foods are healthy and you should eat them, but don't get so caught up in your measuring spoons that you miss the big picture.

actually, on second thought, no, that diet sucks. Where's teh red meat??

If you were to bring a cooler and a gallon of whole milk with you to sip on during the day, you'd be good to go for bulking :)
