You'll have to do more concrete planning. Figure out you calories. I've a feeling, like Dr. X said before, that you need more protein. Read the stickies and articles to come up with a plan. It may be just a drop in calories that is needed or it may be an adjustment in macronutrient ratios.

Drop the milk from your post workout shake. You could be just delaying the time the sugar and everything else gets absorbed, missing the post workout window, creating an insulin spike, and storing a bunch of carbs as fat. I can't prove this but it is the general consensus. When you're taking in 50-100g carbs pure dextrose you want to be sure your muscles are primed to take in nutrients and that you are delivering those nutrients as quick as possible.
um.. I really don't see the muscle. It's either that or it's the "2 lbs of muscle come with 3 lbs of fat" case.

My calories are 2546+.

Can you tell me how I can cut down on the carbs?
