I've just begun bulking and was wondering if someone could let me know what they think of my meal plan?

I'm 5ft 10, 153lbs, 19 years old, and do weights 4 days a week and 30 mins of HIIT twice a week.

Meal plan:

1) shredded wheat + protein shake + 2oz walnuts
2) (PW) Chicken breast + 300g potato + protein shake
3) (PPW) turkey breast + 300g potato
4) tin of tuna + 300g potato + pint of skimmed milk
5) 3oz walnuts + pint of skimmed milk

Totals:

1)Cals: 733, Protein: 39, Carbs: 52, Fat: 41.1
2)Cals: 574, Protein: 80, Carbs: 54, Fat: 4.8
3)Cals: 508, Protein: 69, Carbs: 51, Fat: 3.452
4)Cals: 685, Protein: 56, Carbs: 80, Fat: 15.3
5)Cals: 780, Protein: 30, Carbs: 32, Fat: 58

Overall, when you add a pint of milk before bed + 4x fruit (based on med banana) it comes to:

Cals: 3911
Prot: 296
Carb: 410
Fats: 125.652

Before you say anything, I know its very basic with all the potatoes, but I don't have the time to get facny at the mo.

Anyways, would you say this meal plan is about right for me? I think I need to be getting around 3800-4000 cals a day so it seems good, and protein and carbs look good, but then again I ain't no expert.

Any advice greatly appreciated, even if its to say it seems alright ;)

Cheers..
 
If you're not going to eat any fruit or vegetables, please get a multi-vitamin. I would add oatmeal into the mix=it's just good for you. If that's how many calories you need, it looks fine.
 
Yeh I have multivitamins anyway, but I'll be getting 4 pieces of fruit a day + all the potatoes (vegs) so surely thats plenty.

I'm bound to have oatmeal instead of shredded wheat plenty of times as well.

I assume that how many calories I need because all of the calculators out there say my maintenance calorie intake w/heavy workout that day is 3000, so to add around 800/900 cals seems about right. What do you reckon, that seem a good amount for my weight?
 
maybe you can alternate between white potatoes and sweet potatoes? And brown rice is a good food to include as well - it's certainly not "fancy"
 
yep i will be mixing it up a bit, with sweet potatoes (had before) instead of white, oatmeal instead of shredded wheat, salmon instead of tuna (have tin of fish every other day) & chicken/turkey sandwich instead of having w/ potato - good for when have to eat on the move.
