    6 egg whites(weekends)
    turkey or roast beef sandwich (noon)

    Well I can see why you're not gaining.... diet needs some serious work... here's what I'd do...

    6am
    8 egg whites/ 2 yolks scrammbled
    1 1/2 cup oatmeal
    2 slices of whole wheat with natty pb

    9am
    8oz of steak or chicken breast
    1 cup green leafy veggies
    flax

    noon
    2 cans of tuna
    salad with oil vinegarette
    walnuts

    2pm
    chicken or beef or fish
    1 cup veggies

    3pm
    protein shake w/ flax

    PWO shake
    40-50g protein/ 80-100g dextrose

    7:30pm
    PWO meal#1
    2 chicken breasts
    2 cups rice
    (NO FAT in this meal at all)

    9pm
    2 chicken breasts
    1 cup rice

    10-11pm before bed..
    protein shake with flax...

    You should be able to put on some good quality weight with this diet.

        from your description - the weight gain seems not soo bad for 3 months. if they're in fact 8 solid muscular pounds in 3 months done natty style... good job!!!

          my recommendation: when i started and desperately wanted to put on pounds i went on a see-food diet. how it works is: you see food, you eat it.
