Okay...A few things to clarify.
When i started adding weight back i had just competed. (225) First of December.
My body was primed for adding weight which is why i shot up in weight. OFF SEASON i just eat eat eat (with an emphasis on making sure i get my protein in) I don't count kcals.
This diet is used more for maintainence and getting me ready to start my diet. I go from lots of foods and no real setup to more of a structured diet.
As far as the HIGH GI....The only real time there is HIGH GI carbs is 4:00 which is postworkout.
Without some "sugar" my body starts to flatten out some, plus dieting for 12 - 16 weeks on LOW GI, sucks.
Once precontest time starts those "HIGH GI" carbs will be replaced
Flavored oatmeal will be switched to Regular Oatmeal
Postworkout carbs will come from Sweet Potato's
ECT ECT.....
This is not a "bulk up" Diet but one that will Maintain my weight will getting my body ready to compete
Hope that helps

Makes more sense now. I just noticed the flavored oatmeal, white rice as well as the post workout shake which makes sense. It just seemed like alot to me, I knew you would have an explanation though

In all reality the GI gets lowered significantly with the amount of Protein in each meal. I've seen to many guys use white rice during contest diets to believe that you have to have lower gi foods.
I try and make things simple and use foods i know that i'll be consistent with eating. IMO the most neglected part of the bodybuilding equation.
