I'm no expert (by any means), but the diet seems pretty good, just knock off about 1000 cals. to make it about 2700, like someone else recommended. The only time I have protein bars, (aside from the ones I make=sugarfree) I only have one about 1/2 hr before a WO. I'm not sure how late you have meal 6, but I tend to have some protein powder w/ water, and/or some lean meat if it is late-under 3 hrs before bedtime. Also, I've been told to stay away from pastas, since they are processed.
