Default Advice needed for newbie to lifting & building

Hi,
I have hit my weight loss target & I have been going to the gym 6 days a week for the last year doing a variety of classes & personal training.
I have this week started doing weights to build muscle. I am female but want biceps, 6 pack ab's etc.
My trainer tells me I should be eating 6 small meals a day. However he is from the low fat carb brigade.
I would have protein shake & flax oil for breakfast, meat & salad for lunch or omelette & similar for my evening meal or steak. I have thrown in a banana for a morning snack & nuts or boiled eggs for an afternoon snack.
But I could really do with some advice if this is the right sort of thing to do.
Other builders / lifters eat a lot of shakes and carbs which I'm not really wanting to do. They also are low fat everything, but obviously I'm a high fat girl.
Any input would be gratefully received.

Thanks everyone
