Daily Nutrition Breakdown
I am attempting to standardize my diet plan for the upcoming school year. This will help me save time later on. I will be a bit more creative on Friday-Sunday when I do not have class. If I have time I'll experiment more. I have a 400-500 calorie buffer on every day to get around 3,000 calories. This will allow me to be fairly flexible with whatever I want to eat. If you want to play around with my template, feel free to download the excel link.

Hey yanyan, are you bulking/cutting/maintaining?
Either way I would recommend upping the morning oats to a cup if possible, otherwise everything looks good to me.

I’m considering 2.5k – 2.6k maintenance/cutting. I’ll add 500 + calories a day to go on a mild bulk. Everytime I plateau I’ll up my calories.
Good idea on upping oats. The reason I keep it at 1/2 a cup is so I can exercise immediately afterward.

I’ve been watching your vids on YouTube which led me to this site. Having looked at your meal plans I was hoping you could answer a question that has been bugging me for ages.
What time should I eat my cottage cheese? Some say just before bed but looking at your meal plan it seems you consume yours a bit earlier. Eating it a bit earlier seems like the wiser option and could stop me struggling to eat porridge in the morning.
Anyway good luck with the exams and extreme thanks for the asian recipes (big fan of authentic Chinese cousine), it by far beats the western style food that you get in most take-aways in the UK.

Honestly, it doesn’t matter. Leave enough time so you don’t go to bed hungry. If you eat too far away from bed, you’ll find it hard to sleep since you’ll want to eat something. If you eat it too close, you might not be able to sleep since you are too full. Find a good balance, listen to your body.
It seems like you have a hard time eating breakfast. I don’t have this problem, but if I did, I would eat the cottage cheese earlier on.
Feel free to ask me other questions. Good luck with your goals!

Hey Yan Yan,
What program do you use to track your calories, like the program in the pictures above?
Thanks
