The total calories for all the meals are just above 1200cals. This does not include a pre or post workout snack. So I’d give myself another 300 - 400 calorie allowance. And I may even add another meal on my workout days.
This is just a guideline. Your calorie intake will be differ based on your body composition & fitness goal. Increase the portion accordingly.
