My Diet

Below you will find the eating plan I intend to follow in the coming months.

I must admit that my mom will not be very proud as you will not find any veggies in there, but I promise mom, I am taking a multi-vitamin daily...

Since I am living as a bachelor a very important requirement is that my food must be easy and quick to prepare. I am also working in an office which, for some obscure reason, does not have a microwave on our floor, so another requirement was that my lunch must be one I can eat cold.

I used the calorie calculator to work out my basic caloric needs and added 357 (2500 / 7) calories to it to try and achieve a weight gain of 0.45 kg per week.
