Post work out protein is only whey protein, for fastest absorption for after workout. Bed time protein genenrally has a blend of several types of proteins such as whey, casein, egg etc... which has slower absorption rate, feeding your body during the night.

If you have a small calorie deficit, you'd have a tough time putting on weight. But a small deficit of 165 cals is easily made up consuming some good protein or good fats (like peanuts). Muscle milk is great, tastes good, but slightly high in fat content. If you want a bed time protein, muscle milk is fine, Optimum pro complex, and BSn syntha 6 are a few good ones. If you'r looking for a post workout protein, any pure whey powder will do. some good ones are ON's 100 whey, syntrax nectar (great taste), eas 100 whey.

Thanks!
I only started using this website a few days ago but i have been using the counter and activity tracker to see how im doing.
Today i ran a deficit of 165 calories.
Is that going to be a problem if im trying to bulk up.
Also i was reading reviews on bodybuildingforyou.com which i beleive this site is affiliated to?
I was looking at Muscle milk.
Im wondering if you have any recomendations for a protein powder for me?
I workout 4-6 days a week for about an hour to an hour and a half and do a bit of cardio as well as playing soccer.
If you have any recommendations let me know.
Thanks!

Your diet plan looks pretty good. Similar to 40-40-20 diet that I like to follow. Your factor of 15 for bulking up is a little on the low end I think. I typicall use a factor of multiplying by 16 to 18 for bulking.
See here: http://www.bodybuildingforyou.com/bodybuilding-supplements-guides/diet-and-nutrition-guide-1.htm
But other than that, your diet plan looks good, with good recommendations on good food sources.
Keep in mind tho, you can use our calorie counter combined with the activity tracker to see how much of a calorie deficit or surplus you have on a daily and weekly basis.
