I am trying to put on some weight fast and am lifting maximal poundages for me at the moment and training very hard, but struggling on the diet. I cannot have milk as it aggravates my acne which is irritating so need a good source of calories at maximum convenience.

At the moment my diet is something like this:

Breakfast: 3 eggs, 4 slices of toast, pint of orange juice

Midmorning: Roast beef sandwich

Lunch: 2 tuna sandwiches, salad with olive oil, fruit

Afternoon: peanut butter sandwich and a banana

Dinner: 1/2 lb meat, large serving rice, vegetables and olive oil

Before bed: Cottage cheese

Ideally would like to bump the calories up around 500-1000 calories as I am barely maintaining weight on this calorie intake. Any good and quick ideas>?

Nuts are a good idea. Any more? I am really struggling on the eating side of things.

When I use to bulk up I'd use whey protein powder. There's a ton of ways to do it so I'd suggest checking out www.bodybuilding.com and Diesel's bulking thread in the forum.
