i went from 150 to 195 in six weeks. i ate every two to three hours even if i wasn't hungry. i would eat eggs, chicken, tuna , steak, wheat bread, salads, turkey, cheese , drink lots of milk, protein shakes, etc. if your trying to bulk, from my exp. eat atleast six times a day, clean food and aim for 40-60g of protein per meal, around 4500-5500cals daily, and 200-400 carbs. i really didn't watch my carbs too much, like i said i was skinny. now i got people telling me that i look huge. i'm up to 207 right now in the middle of my second cycle and honestly, my diet is slacking. to answer your question, i usually eat right up untill bedtime, but if your worried about fat, then just cut the carbs. have a low carb shake or something. i prefer tuna and a peice of fruit, maybe a cup of milk or something to help you sleep. also, i try to get atleast 2 meals in after my workout. just get alot of cals and protein, rest and train hard. you will see results.
