Hi there!Your diet should contain about 1500-2000 calories a day. If you go to the gym everyday, you need to be sure to eat about 2250-2500 calories at the most! You can still eat what you are eating now, but you may want to portion out more of each food. Also, to get about 120 extra calories in each meal, eat 1 Tbsp of peanut butter. It is full of protein and full of those extra calories you need =)Thanks for your question!
