Let's take a step back and calm down, people. He wasn't wrong in saying consume more carbs. It just wasn't accurately phrased. If you consume more of any macronutrient group, you'll be consuming more calories by default. If this addition of calories puts the person in a surplus, they'll gain weight.

why oat is good for building muscle?
i eat oat every morning~

NOTE: is it oat can add into protein shake?

Oh thanks~

Yeah, that's why i feel weird how come my weight keep +/-

I briefly summarize my food plan.
8am - 1/2 scoop mass gainer protein + 1/2 casein protein + 1 scoop of oat + 250ml Dutch Lady Full Cream milk.
930am - Brekkie Wrap with Chicken Roll + Hash Brown (MCD)/Chicken Slice & Egg (Subway)/Any breakfast set of Sans Franscisco
1200pm - Mixed Rice (Any part of chicken+Fried Fillet+Brocolli+Steamed Egg with Meat+Taufu)/Chicken Rice(Chicken Breast x 2)/Other (But I will make sure as long as chicken/rice is served)
230pm - Fruit Juice Blended(Green Apple + Orange + Carrot)
430pm - Cheesenan Chicken Breast Tandori/Tomyam Chicken Soup with White Rice/Mutarbak (Although it is a bad food )
630pm - 4 slices of banana.
730pm ~ 1030pm - Gym Workout Time.
11pm - 1/2 scoop mass gainer protein + 1/2 casein protein + 1 scoop of oat + 250ml Dutch Lady Full Cream milk/Traditional Chinese Family Dinner Meal(no idea how to describe it, haha)

Lastly, I would drink at least 8L of water per day.

I dont like when someone just writes a vague answer cause begginers are gonna end up doing the wrong thing (e.g stuffing themselves wif bowls of rice).

We can understand how it works cause we know what is tdee and calorie sulprus and exactly how much more carbs we ned eat to archieve that due to our vast knowledge.

Anyway this thread shud be long closed since i already answered OP's question in Post #3

Food is like transport that carry calorie and nutrition to your body.
Oat is beneficial because it's complex carb and contain dietary fiber. It's not to build your muscle. So, don't go and add up massive amount of oats thinking your muscle will grow.

Meal frequency and timing doesn't affects your weight. Your daily calorie intake does.
Go google and type "TDEE calculator" then use www.myfitnesspal.com to track your daily intake.

Relax. Public forum is open for everyone's opinion so if they ended up listening to bad advise. IT's their lost. You already did what you could to help. Most forummers love to be spoon-fed.

What's the overall calories and macronutrients?
