Olive oil is also very good for you in moderation but is nothing the same as fish oils

Fish oils contain omega 3 and essential fatty acids.

always buy fish oils over cod liver oil.

McRoNiX, why limit yourself to tuna? Have some quorn instead for some of the meals, and eggs for others. Also, as mentioned, try other fish. If you eat fish you eat fish. The more different sources of protein you get throughout the day the better.

Got home and did what you sed for PWO drink. Whey, water and honey.

I'm no expert bud but I think you should be taking your PWO shake to the gym with you and having it immediatley after training when your body needs it most...

I'm getting 600g of tuna a day, which is 155g of protein on its own.
The whey drink is around another 30 and the eggs and milk are over 30 combined also.
thats 215g without everything else such as cottage cheese, beans, etc.
I weigh around 168lbs Meaning I need around 252 lbs of protein a day for 1 1/2 lbs of protein per lb of me.

Duno how you worked out 120 dude (I'm doing maths at uni next year, have some respect ;))

600g of tuna can't have 155g of protein, can it???

Also, have would i adapt the diet to someone of my size (6 foot & 196 pounds)??? PS, i am trying to gain weight, take that into account
