Your diet seems light on carbs to me.  I know there are carbs in the gainer shakes but real food would be a nice addition (your rice is good, just more of it, potatoes, pasta, cereal).  I would move the bananas to earlier in the day because you don't want too many carbs just before bed.  And guzzle whole milk whenever possible.  I do about 1/2 gal a day.  Some people drink a whole gallon.

All the best!  Good workin' out!  :)

this big gap needs to be filled if possible with another whole food meals, try not to rely too much on the gainer shakes, imo should only be resorted to if whole foods cannot be consumed.

also do you hav any postworkout nutrition? as it looks as though you finish your workout and then dont eat for an hour afterwards, it would be more beneficial for you to grab a shake at this time.

hope this helps

the hour between the workout and the dinner is the time to get home and take a shower :)
but i was thinking to get cell tech after workout directly if that will fill that part or i will just take a shake.

yeah it would help to get a shake as soon as you finish.

man, i'll tell you this your missing the 3 most important aspects of nutrition (especially for your bodytype):
-breakfast: you have NO carbs? Add 1 cup of oatmeal to the eggs
-post workout: you should take the gainer shake right after
-right before bed eat 1 cup cottage cheese, 2 tablespoons of peanut butter, 1 cup milk

but you shouldn't go longer than 3hrs between meals...add a pb&j sandwich w/milk in the afternoon.

it's all about the calories to gain weight...muscles need fuel. dont take more than 2 shakes a day. real food is best!

cut the bananas out at night.  eat something that will slowly digest (casein protein).  dairy products generally have it.
