100g turkey breast
half a cucumber
portion of green vegetables

100g greek yogurt
50g cottage cheese
20g peanut butter
4 rice cakes.

meal three (4:00pm)
70g quaker oats
80g blueberries
200ml semi milk
100ml almond milk
40g all bran (extra fibre low GI 30)
1 whole egg

    Earlier today you were 5'6 and 120.

    In any case, you don't need to lose before you bulk. Just start lifting and eat your 3k. At 18 with 7-10 miles of walking per day plus lifting, your body will work itself out.

    I agree, OP... I find your height fluctuations a lot more alarming than what's been happening with your weight. Please see a doctor ASAP.
