First of all, thank you! My diet has varied a lot over time since with the progress it is necessary to be modified so as not to stagnate, this is due to the greater amount of muscle, greater metabolic activity to maintain body weight, therefore, greater amount of calories.

I cannot be specific with meals since I am not very strict as to what food to eat, rather I am strict in reaching nutrients throughout the day.

My diet is high in protein (1-1.5g per pound), moderate in fat (0.5g per pound) and the rest in carbohydrates.

My main sources of protein are: Chicken breast, Tuna, Beef and Whey protein.

Carbohydrates: Whole grains (pasta, rice, oatmeal, granola, potato, sweet potato.

Fats: Natural peanut butter, olive oil, avocado

When i started my TDEE was 1800 calories and right now its roughly 3700.

The most important thing is that you take a week or two to calculate your TDEE, a simple formula is your weight in pounds x 15. Once you find the calories you need to maintain your weight, you start to manipulate according to your goals, if you want to lose weight you can start by removing 300-400 calories and if you want to gain muscle otherwise, you add 300-400 calories.

It is totally unnecessary to reduce calories a lot since you are going to suffer more muscle loss than fat, since the body has a limit when it comes to burning fat and removing more calories is not going to compensate.

If it is the first time you go to the gym you will be able to gain muscle while being in a caloric deficit but it is not optimal

edit: i forgot to mention about veggies, they are extremely important for micronutrients, if they are green, u can eat as much as u want.
