Hey congrats! Im nearing the end of my first official bulk getting ready to cut. Its a ton of fun I can tell you that! My suggestions are more chicken, whey and yogurt. But really anything will do as long as it fits your macros. Also youll need to start slowly uppinng your calories, ideally for a bulk you want to gain .5-1lb per week month

.5lb of muslce per week? lol. Even somebody on gear can't build muscle that fast. Not possible. That weight is going to be like 90% fat lol

Lack of context in your answer.

While Chrisparadise does give awful answers... he was referring to a .5 - 1 lb gain total per week, he did not mention only muscle which would be nearly impossible.

Honestly, everyone saying 160 is too much, but it doesn't seem that ridiculous to me depending on what program she is following. There are multiple ways to accomplish the same thing, just depends on personal preference and timeframe. If she is doing a "lean bulk" then upping the protein a little more than usual is not that bad of an idea. Just depends on the OP's plan and goals.

OP - what is your caloric goal? 160g of protein is only 640 calories, so that should leave quite a bit of wiggle room for you on a bulk.

As for being "glib"... I don't even know what that is! However, opening my food diary really won't help the OP since I have not been in a bulk/cut cycle since the holidays. I don't really see the point of seeing what other people log anyways.
