Default High-ish Protein Diet

It's been a while since I've updated on my weight loss (other thread, but here are a few details that will probably come up later anyway):

I am down to 162 lbs from 207. Not bad. I've still got a bit of stomach fat, but I have a few abs sticking out and look better overall (feel way better). I'm doing BJJ about three hours a day (six days a week), free-weights training for about an hour a day (six days a week - a good chunk of the exercises are olympic lifts) and HIIT (four times a week - I'm at fourteen minutes now, 20 seconds on 10 seconds off).

I lost a great deal of weight on a ketosis diet, where I was eating about 2400 Calories a day (200-400 every two hours, granted, I'd eat the most when I got home from training), mostly fats and proteins with a limit of 24 g of Carbs a day (so 10% of my daily value in terms of Calories. Then I hit a huge plateau and, to be honest, am sick of virtually-no-carbs. So, after three months on that hell-diet I'm bulking to about 185 and then I'm going to try some more fat loss (and then bulk again and one final fat-cut) - I want to walk around at 185 lbs. My goal is about 8% body fat, though I'm guessing it'll be more like 9.

ANNNNYWAY, for the past two weeks I've been eating like **** and it sucks (so that would make this a very sloppy bulk). I can't stand it. So many carbs that are just so thoroughly unnecessary. On my ketosis diet I was eating a lot of hard-boiled eggs (since I spend most of my time at work/school and don't really get home until 8:30 PM - they're 1 g of carb each and very portable).
