Here is what an average diet looks like for me on a weight training day. If I'm feeling a little tired towards the end of the day I might bump my fat or carbs up with either peanuts or brown rice.
Meal 1 (pre workout)
1 serving of oatmeal and 1 scoop of whey protein powder
260 cals, 26g protein, 6g fat, 32g carbs
during workout I take in 2 servings of Gatorade
100 cals, 28g carbs
Post workout shake
2 scoops of whey protein and 2 scoops of dextrose w/ water
540 cals, 42g protein, 5g fat, 68g carbs
Meal 2
5 egg whites, 1 whole egg, 1 tsp of cod liver oil
300 cals, 30g protein, 10g fat, 4g carbs
Meal 3
1 can tuna in water, 1/2 tbsp of olive oil, 2 servings of green veggies (usually spinach)
300 cals, 41g protein, 8g fat, 12g carbs
meal 4
same as meal 3
meal 5
1 serving of low fat cottage cheese and 1 chicken breast
200 cals, 33g protein, 5g fat, 6g carbs
meal 6
1 serving of low fat cottage cheese and 1 tbsp of flaxseed oil
220 cals, 13g protein, 15g fat, 4g carbs
total:
2220 cals, 226g protein, 56g fat, 166g carbs
Right now I'm currently at 175 bs and 5'10. You may need more calories since you a little bigger.

My progress is going great. All my lifts are increasing at a good rate, I have not tested my body fat, but I've been on this diet for about 3 weeks now for cutting and I can tell a big difference since I've started this diet, I'm more defined everywhere, especially in my abs. The main difference in this diet and my previous cutting diets is I really upped the carbs, instead of going low carbs, and instead of losing body fat and muscle like I do in my previous cutting diets, I'm gaining muscle and losing body fat. I'm really thinking about adding the brown rice with one of my tuna meals permanently so I can keep my carb intake close to 200g a day. By the way, once every week I'll include a carb up day where I take in around 300g of clean carbs and I'll also up my fat intake to close to 100g that day.

1 serving of cottage cheese is 1/2 cup.
On my carb up day what I usually have is oatmeal w/ my eggs (instead of having it pre-workout since my carb up day is my off day), then I'll have 2 servings of steak with a whole sweet potato, then I'll have 2 servings of brown rice with a baked piece of chicken, for another meal I'll eat a salad with tuna topped w/ fat free dressing (for flavoring, I know not the best of carbs, but since this is a little bit of a cheat day), later in the day with my last meal I'll have either chicken or tuna with probably some more brown rice or some fruit, and then for a snack I'll have about 2 servings of fat free ice cream. For fat I'll include peanuts, olive oil, flax seed oil, steak, and beef. So this is somewhat of a cheat day by some of the food I'll eat, but I'll mostly eat clean for the whole day and I'm not really concerned what time I eat the carbs either.
