Default CAN I HAVE YOUR OPINION ON MY DIET & TRAINING PLEASE

Hello everyone,as many may know ive been wieght lifting for a couple of months,ive swapped and changed my trainining circuits advised by many on the forum.I also have started to eat correctly every day and seem to have a routine going with the diet and wieght lifting.
I would appriciate an opinion on my diet and training.

9:00,75g porridge,1 small chicken breast,250ml orange juice
12:00,4 turkey sandwiches,1 pack crisps,2 tangerines
15;00,1 chicken breast,2 tangerines
1730,2 pork chops,potatoes,veg(varies but generaly meat and veg)
TRAIN FOR 30 - 40 MINs
1900,75g pasta,130g tuna,grated cheese, 250ml milk
2200:chicken breast,50g porridge

WIEGHT TRAINING PROGRAM
WENESDAY and SATERDAY
behind neck press, flies, bent fowrard lateral raises, tri extensions, lateral raises.

TUE and FRI
squats, concentrated curls, single arm rows, barbell curls, sit ups.

I know its probably a bit wierd the way i have decided to split the routine up, but the reason i do it like this is because i hate the 3 day split, i get to tired and have a lack of motivation to perform the exercises as the 3 day sessions last to long.I also only train at home with a bench which has no rack and a barbell and dumbells.This is the reason i do the exercises above ie flies instead of bench press coz i have no rack or spotter ,and refuse to go to a gym until later down the line when im a bit bigger as im not prepared to train in front of people yet, also its more convineant at home.
I hope i get some feed back with regards to my diet and training,im very keen and have started to enjoy training,my appetite has also increased a lot.I could manage to eat a lot more but i have limited amount of money to spend as me and my missus are both only 21 and shes at university training to be a nurse which means she only gets a small amount of money and im only a landscape gardener with a 2 year old daughter.Dont get me wrong were not struggling but im not prepared to spend more than 10-15 pound on top of my shopping budget a week ,i usually spend 65-75 a week on food but lately its been nearly 100 a week.My main extras are 2 bags of chicken breasts 6 cans of tuna.Ive gone on a bit here and i apolagise , but any advice or comments , good or bad would be apriciated.One last thing im 6ft2 11 stone trying to get bigger, i was originally 10 and half stone but i put on half a stone in a couple of weeks, but know the wieght gain has stopped completely in the last 4-5 weeks but i dont know why as if anything im eating more know(strange).
