Can somebody take a look at my normal diet? Any critique is helpful. I know I'm taking in alot of dairy products (milk and whey). Sometimes I don't take a protein shake for breakfast and I eat egg whites with vegetables.

This is obviously not every day, but it's an average day.

Meal 1- 7 a.m.
20 oz whey protein
8 oz milk
1 apple
handful of broccoli raw
handful of cashews

Meal 2- 10:30 a.m.
16 oz milk
1 cheesestick
small handful of almonds

Meal 3: 12:45 p.m.
cup of whole grain rice
5 oz chicken
handful of almonds

Meal 4: 3:30 p.m.
20 oz whey protein
8 oz milk
handful cashews
1 cup of cauliflower

Meal 5 (Dinner)
Varies but usually meets a 5 block balanced meal.

Meal 6: 10:30 p.m.
20 oz whey protein
8 oz milk
handful of cashews
handful of vegetables

Bryan, go for meals of lean protein the size and thickness of your palm, the rest of the plate overflowing with non-starchy veggies and a dash of monounsaturated fat.
