Nice start. Amino tabs likely worthless but up to you
I think this is, for a guy your size, weak on the carbs. I'd add in some starch, chow down on some oats, or something. Maybe pancakes?

Meal 2 (06:45-07:15) post workout
16 oz. lean meat (usually chicken, but sometimes steak)
4 whole eggs, 4 egg whites
2 pcs. toast (wheat, w/ sugar free jelly & Peanut Butter)
washed down with another 60g protein shake

All this is good, but again, weak on the carbs, and use real jelly and PB.

Meal 3 (12:00)
16 oz. lean meat
Half a head of lettuce, 2 carrots and half an onion w/ranch dressing
1 cup (cooked) rice
|
Good meal. Maybe throw in some healthy fats, or do some olive oil business instead of ranch dressing?

Meal 3.5 (whenever)
I keep a bunch of cashews in my desk and will grab a handful or 3 if I get hungry between "lunch" and "dinner"

Try for some protein here along with some fruit.
Quote:
Meal 4 (18:00)
16-24 oz. lean meat
usually either rice or some form of legume to go with that
6 more fish oil
4 more amino tabs
|
Again, more carbs.
Quote:
Meal 5 (22:00) bedtime
ZMA
60g Casein Shake
and if Im hungry a PB sandwich or 2
|
Good meal.
IMHO, you could jack up your carb intake during the week. Like, way up. Of course, this means not as many hog wild cheats, but that said, by putting the majority of your 'active' macronutrients (fat, carbs) as close to your workouts as possible, you'll position yourself for greater gains in hypertrophy, strength, and thus facilitate fat loss during the times away from workouts.

CHEAT DAYS (always Sundays, and some wednesdays)
usually do 3 meals, as I eat too much for much else
-all-u-can eat sushi at KC Sushi
-I usually have my smoker going on Sundays for BBQ hawtness as well (I keep a food image thread of that at WBB: http://www.wannabebig.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=119627)
-Some Wednesdays the 1-0-7 BBQ crew will hit up all-u-can eat wings at Granfalloon North

I heartily approve of all this.
