Hi Royality,

Sorry about not giving enough information, I was in a bit of a rush to get to college, my goals are to increase lean mass, I want to be able to lift more (for judo) and to be bigger as I've always been a skinny guy.
I didn't know pastrami and the like were that bad, i'll stay towards my beef and salad and tuna salad sandwhiches more then, though I can't help but try something new!
I'm quite new to the whole premaking meals for the next day thing but i'm getting the habbit of it, is pasta (with a tomatoe sauce) and the like good?
Also would it be good to take a whey protein with a banana or some fruit with breakfast or when I get home from college each day? I've got a few kilos of the stuff at home and I can easily afford to get more.

Thanks for the help, it's greatly apprecitated.

please dont tell me that was your post workout meal lol? :(

also need EFA's (essential fatty acids) from oily fish, and seeds.

yes definately take whey protein with your breakfast, either with water beforehand, or mix it in (like i do with my oats)

here is a nice list of food of what you should be looking to eat...

Wow, long list thanks, to be totally honest i've been a bit 'confudled' by all the seeds and alike that i'm not sure which is good and which isn't!

Don't worry, that wasn't my post workout, I was a bit pekkish and dinner wasn't going to be ready for half an hour. I had the chicken slice (not the best , I know :() and then had a shake and banana when I got home.
I'll try and get more greens in aswell, they seem to be quite absent in my home!
I tried pumpkin seeds but they're not the best tasting, i'll try blending them in to a shake.

And Royality, i'll try and find some wholemeal pasta, if asda don't have any i'll get it from the deli instead, and I hope the sauce is healthy, I make it from scratch!
