I would take out the bread and replace with oats or brown rice. Im sure someone else will be able to chime in a little better though

Looks like a decent meal plan to me.

If it was me I wouldn't start my calories that high , I would start around 3500-3600 and increase it a hundred or two every 3-4 weeks.....But that's ME not YOU.:)

Looks good, and well done on calculating and postnig the breakdown.
However, your total cals are 3914, not that it's a big deal though.
I think that will work well. If you start putting on too much fat, cut back a few hundred, unless you don't care.

The reason I am going with this many calories is because after I got over 200lbs 3500calories/day were too little. I upped it to 4000-4500 and started gaining lean muscle again. At 214lbs the first thing in the morning without all the water in me my abs look really good.

no veggies? where does your micronutrient nutrition from?

certainly a diet rich in nutrients is extremely important in both maintaining superior health as well as attaining superior results
