Goal - gain weight and get stronger.

I take a multi, creatine (5g), and a lot of fish oil (I think it's around 2000mg epa + dha daily), every day and also some caffeine pre-workout. I also lift weights everyday, because it suits my schedule (it's low volume, moderate intensity, so I feel like I recover fine).
I get around 8 hours of sleep daily.

My diet quite probably sucks really bad. I'm very lazy to cook and buy food + I'm a pretty poor student. This means that protein shakes give me a LOT of my total daily protein intake.
I also don't really count calories, I just try to eat a lot (sometimes force-feeding myself a bit) and eat clean.

5:00 100g oatmeal + myofusion(1 scoop, 25g protein)
7:30 100g oatmeal + myofusion(1 scoop, 25g protein)
9:00 workout
10:00 100g oatmeal + myofusion(1 scoop, 25g protein)
13:30 "lunch" - some sort of normal meal*, - meat (200g) + rice/potatoes
16:30 some sort of nuts (usually pistacios) + myofusion (1 scoop, 25g protein)
18:30 "dinner" -meat + veggies + rice/potatoes - 250g meat, 300g potatoes
19:20 cottage cheese 150g
20:00 I'm in bed.

* - the lunch is usually left overs from the meal I had for dinner the previous day.

The meat I eat is usually chicken breast/ hashed beef / pork chops.
The veggies are very random, whatever I feel like really, there's lots of it - this is like the only thing that is very variable in my diet.
Usually I have rice (white rice), potatoes are not that common.


So basically, I eat the same stuff over and over again. I try to eat enough to gain weight - if I don't see weight gain in a few days (5), I eat a bit more.

How does it sounds... please be honest.

Personally I think your on the right track the food looks good. And if your not gaining your adding more food to make you gain. Give it a couple of weeks n see the results.

That's good to hear. Yeah it's not like I would be complaining about not seeing results, I can't judge yet, only been like 2 weeks so far - I'll judge results in a few weeks.

I just thought I would write this, as a check-up... see if I'm maybe doing something really wrong and get advice about it.

Looks good.

Maybe you could try to get a quicker carb into your system right after workout. Like grape juice or a supplement like DGC or something. Also what I find helps me post workout is.

Right after your workout a simple carb and protein shake mixed.

30 min later have a small meal with a more complex carb like a potato and a small piece of whole food protein.

1 hour later a MRP or something similar

1 hour later have the same type of meal as the second.

This helps take advantage of the critical window after working out where your body is primed for growth.

Give it a try and see how you feel.
