Your diet looks very similiar to mine except I eat a fair amount of lean beef. Also I have 4-5 slightly larger meals.

A couple things stand out here for me, meal 1 might I suggest you eat a whole food protein source(10-12egg whites would be good) cause you have shakes two meals in a row and don't get any whole food til 12:30. Meal 3 is huge, I would try to cut that meal down and eat more meals, add an extra meal. You are eating every three hour which can be good but what bothers me is that you eat a very small meal on Meal 2 and wait 3hour to eat again and the same with meal 3 which is a large meal and then eat again after 3hours. Do you get what I am trying to say here. I think you need to adjust your meal timing around alittle and get more meals in and maybe make meal 3 a little smaller and eat every 2-3 hours, but I don't know your work or school schedule so this may be the best you can do, I know not everyone can live the life of a full time bodybuilder like myself..LOL In no way I am saying you are wrong and I commend you for being disciplined enough to follow a diet and meal plan, but these are just what I would try to change. As for the food, it looks okay to me, except I would try to get in some complex carbs in meal 7 cause you need them carbs after a workout, like a half cup of oatmeal will do, but if bodyfat is a problem, you may want to avoid it. Also, you may want to think about a meal right before bed, I usually have a 60g protein shake and a serving of almonds.

Thanks first off!

1. I will add that post bed shake with almonds.
2. I will add eggs and take away shake for breakfast. 6 eggs for me and work from there.
3. Will tone down meal one. 1 cup rice instead of 1.5
4. No carbs for meal 7. Trying to lose the chub!
5. What about beefing up meal 3 and 5? what would you add?
6. Eating is tough at my job. I work at differnt offices and move back and forth throughout the day. Dont have a desk.

Thanks AGAIN!

I take that you mean meals 2 and 5, yes add protein to meal 5, since it is preworkout about 30g will do and meal 2 I would probaly cut the yogurt(you are having some at meal 1 already) and the milk(you say you want to lean down, drop that milk) and have a serving of almonds about a 1/4 cup. I really think after doing this for a few weeks you may need to go on a high carb, low carb day cycle to throw your metabolism off. Also, for now I wouldn't have a cheat meal for at least 1month.

Looks fine, I would still cut out all milk though. The yogurt is fine and studies show that yogurt helps burn fat especially in the abdominal area.
