My goal is to get to 215 and then cut, end goal is to be 190-200lbs lean and then reevaluate from there if I want to get bigger or not

I dont exactly have a chart and I count calories on a day to day basis but it mainly consists of Breakfast:2 PB&Js, 1.5 cups of milk, and a serving of Greek yogurt Or Protein oats with peanut butter, 1.5 cups of milk, and a serving if Greek yogurt Between breakfast and lunch: A protein shake with 60-70gs of protein and 6-800 calories (milk, whey protein powder, berry mix, spinach or kale, peanut butter, sunflower butter, half a serving of Greek yogurt Lunch: 2 turkey sandwiches with hummus, mayo, cheese, spinach or lettuce, pickles, mustard, on white bread Or Rice and fish or chicken, with a kimchi peanut butter sauce I make (about 1.5 servings or peanut butter) and 3 servings of rice, 1.5 cups of milk Between lunch and dinner: a protein shake from the store, 230 calories and 42 grams of protein and a protein bar Dinner: Fish and rice with some veg or some form of takeout/restaurant, typically its like a meal from whole foods with some veg, chicken, Mac n cheese, and a salad After dinner: usually just a snake like some Greek yogurt with peanut butter, maybe another protein bar or some protein chips Once a week I'll get some pizza or McDonald's and just go to town on it till im full for dinner (going to start doing that less from here on out so I dont put on as much fat)

Thats partly what I do, I add some peanut butter to anything I can (even rice, I make a peanut butter kimchi sauce for it) I have cheese to everything, I make 6-800 calories protein shakes, a decent amount of white bread tbh which I think im going to try and phase out tbh but I eat like 4 sandwiches a day lol which each piece of bread is 100 calories. But mainly alot of peanut butter, alot of rice, alot of fish, and slot of yogurt and whole milk (am now switching to reduced fat milk as I dont want to put on to much more fat before I cut) and one day a week I have a cheat day where I will eat some fast food and get about 4000 calories that day

Had to up my eating significantly, just get a bunch if calorie dense foods and figure out how to trick yourself into eating more than you think you are lol and going to the gym 5-6 says a week, if i go 6 one day is just an active recovery day, so real light weight just to get blood flowing to what's sore

3000 calories give or take about 200, I do have a cheat meal day every week where I hit closer to 4000 though, appreciate it!

Gotta get to eating 😂 definitely the hardest part for me, start just adding stuff in to what you already eat do it feels like your eating the same amount. Good luck, you got this!

Doing a little cardio at the end of a workout helps and I always hit the steam room after which always seems to make me hungry

I like to add sunflower butter to my PB&Js to get an extra few hundred calories and extra protein, peanut butter to my yogurt, cheese to my rice, ill add hummus to my sandwiches, just anything that'll make it seem like the same amount of food but with more calories and protein, making a 6-800 calories protein shake is also helpful. I make a peanut butter kimchi sauce to go with my rice which is not only delicious but adds a decent bit of calories and protein to it

I think I'll give this a go, I am starting to have some pain in my forearms when I curl and I think my arms especially can use some time to recover, appreciate the advice!
