I alternate ham with chicken each day, any suggestions to replace the bread and baked beans?? I thought beans were relatively good for you??

Am i getting enough calories, protein, carbs, fats ??
 
Throw the bread away and eat, sweet potatoe and oats, ham has little protein and full of salt.

Eat:
Proper chicken
Lean meats
green vegies
fruit
nuts (I like almonds)
Sweet potatoe
Oats
Fish
Tuna
Eggs


DO not eat prccessed crap like.
Bread
Canned stuff
Sugary drinks (fruit juice included except grape with creatine)
Fried stuff
Fast food from take aways
etc etc, you get the idea.
 
A rough guide is your bodyweight in kg x 44, you need to try and count the calories in your diet and go from there


edit
oh you already did that :)
if your bmr is higher than what you are eating, you need to eat more if you want to gain
