When i told you in your other post your Diet totaly sucks this is what you had posted there:

Diet:
Breakfast - Oatmeal, 50gr protein shake
brunch - 30g protein bar
lunch - whatever the fuck I am hungry for, usually a greasy hamburger
afternoon - another 30gr protein bar
before workout - protein Ice drink (42gr)
evening - whatever the wife cooks, she's a freaking amazing cook


I am not really the best person to ask about diet, I keep it simple i just try to eat as much as i can, i don't log it , i don't count calories, macros etc etc, I just freaking eat, I am not trying to compete nor will i ever try, the guys here can give you much better advice than me, but my advice is just shove as much food as you can, don't worry too much about making it perfect at this point, you need to put on weight, if you start getting fat change it up more protien less carbs, not gaining much eat more, simple done
Protien bars do not count as a meal, they are for when you stop for coffee and instead of buying a doughnut you buy a protien bar

I am not recomending this but this but this is what i eat on a usuall day
5:00 am train after gym protien shake w/ creatine
get home around 7:00a.m
6 cage free whole eggs w/ a bunch of white potatoes
9-10 a.m peanut butter and jelly sandwich with lots of PB
10-11 am yogurt & protien shake sometime some fruit
12 lunch, almost every day 1 can tuna fish w/ 1 cup white rice
( started adding chicken or chile at lunch recently), another yogurt
2-3pm another peanut butter and jelly sandwich with lots of PB
3-4pm another protien shake
around 6pm dinner
usualy large chicken breast, sometime steak, and starting eating some fish also, along with about 1 1/2 cups string beans or brocoli, and about 4 oz whole wheat pasta or 1 cup rice,
sometime i will toss in a protien bar or 2 during the day if i am hungry(mostly on weekends)
before bed 1 Large protien (casien) shake 50 grams, 16 ounces milk, 2 whole eggs, 1 cup blue berries, 1 bananna

Now on to your training, I told you in your post to start another thread about training, go do that keep these 2 seperate from each other this one is about diet the other need to be about training, which in my opinion you are not training correctly either, I am not being mean just honest after looking at your pic on BB.com i would say you never lifted a weight or started last week
You are not a hard gainer you weighed 200 lbs and now are 165, you gain weight you just need to gain the right weight
Post up EXACTLY what you do in the gym like i listed below , you don't need to be working muscles twice a week like you posted and you need to be in the 6-8 rep range not the 10-15 reps, and for gods sake what the hell are you training Glutes for, please don't tell me your are working out on a glute machine, thats for chicks :banghead:
This is my training schedule, it might not be for you but it works for me and i like it, post up something like this so the guys can recomend other training routines and you can try them all to see what works, you have to find what works for you
You can increase your food intake but if you are not traing hard enough it will be a waste or you will get fat

@Enigmatic707

Yep, thats three sets per muscle group. But to make sure we're on the same page, I'll give an example:

Pecs:

Flat bench presses: 3 sets of 10-15 reps
Pec Fly Machine: 3 sets of 10-15 reps
Incline Dumbell Press: 3 sets of 10-15 reps

Is that what you were thinking?

No- that's 3 sets per exercise... Not per muscle group- that's a total of 9 sets per muscle group

Hey man, I'm not taking anything your saying as mean at all. I really appreciate this last post. That's exactly what I need. I'm willing to try anything, because obviously what I am doing is wrong. Thanks for the input

@Enigmatic

Gotcha man, I see what you're saying, thanks for the clarification.

Lol, I hear you bud.

OK....here is what I look like now. My wife says she sees a difference, but I guess I'm my biggest critic because I dont see any difference between what I look like now after almost two months of working out to now....you can see the original pic on bodybuilding dot com

@Jim

The wife loved the pic of the grilled chicken breasts, she loves grilling, even though I told her I was going to do it, she insists on doing it for me :headbang:

Downsize your photos so it fits on the screen and rotate them so they look straight, and start tanning I am part blind now :D

And start your training thread so we can see what you are doing in the gym

Yes I like the idea of starting a training thread. Those pics are hard to look at with the way they are posted. Nutrition is going to get you going in the right direction though. You have the right base but you will look bigger when you get the bf% lower

Much better to view

You asked for opinions so i gave it brother, once you put some muscle on that frame you will look better once you get some sun, you dont have to go tanning just work outside without your shirt off, the farmers tan is looking good though :D
