I really dont **** with any shakes or whatever right now my diet is basically like this. 12:00 Noon wake up and eat a bowl of Oatmeal with a nice bottle of Orange Juice. 1:30 This is my meal before work its usually some kind of Meat with a side of some vegetables like Peas,Broccilli,Mashed Potatoes,Green Beans whatever. 6:00 This is around my 1st break at work and I usually have a packed lunch of a Bannana,Peach,Nice Sandwhich on Wheat bread and a bottle of Turkey Hill Tea. 9:00 Around my 2nd work break and alot of times I go over to the Chinese Place and get something like General Tsos Chicken or some kind of Meat with Veggies type meal and a nice bottle of Vitamin Water Revive from the CVS. 12:00 Whatever my family made for Dinner which around here we eat alot of Spaghetti,Chicken in Fried Rice,Pork Burgers with Veggies etc.
I'm on a seefood diet. I see food I eat it. I've got a fast metabolism so I can eat as much as I want and not gain weight. But I still eat fairly healthy and live a healthy lifestyle. Don't waste your time on protein shakes.
Every morning i get up 6:30-7ish and have a small bowl of Malt-O-Meal (its wheat cereal) and probably 2-4 cups of coffee with maybe a banana or apple. Lunch is at 11-12 and usually consists of some lunchmeat sandwich, yogurt, carrots, broccoli and celery with a banana or apple and a meat stick or two. I usually have a small handfull of unsalted peanuts as a snack sometime during the day Dinner is at 6-7 and is whatever was made or whatever is left over (usually healthy, sometimes not so much). I typically eat chicken, steak, pasta, roasts, fish, tacos... alot of meat oriented stuff. Most of those usually are served with potatoes as well. I have to snack on something at around 10 at night. maybe rye c r a c k e r s or yogurt. Occasionally something pretty unhealthy.
I don't really watch HOW MUCH I eat (I could stand to gain a few pounds), but I do pay close attention to what it is I eat. No junk, no white breads, nothing with corn syrup. Basically start the day with either a bowl of shredded wheat or oatmeal. A piece of fruit along with that. My schedule is weird, so I end up eating at odd times of the day after that. I like to make smoothies with yogurt and frozen fruit. I make a lot of salads, I'll cook a chicken breast first and cut it up and put it in the salad. Whole wheat pitas with hummus. PB & J is always good (making sure there's no corn syrup in the J). Cottage cheese. Fruit. More fruit... Really the only thing I'm trying to work on with my diet right now is to work in more veggies. Probably not getting enough right now.
Get up at 9-10 am. For breakfast it's usually oatmeal with bread (once a week I'll have a scrumbled eggs), green tea and I always take my vitamins in the morning which is alive multivitamin, fish oil and apple polyphenols. Then around 1 pm I'll have a protein shake with some fruit or organic bar. For a break at work I usually take waffles with yogurt and a fruit. When I come back I have a dinner. and 1 hour before bed I'll have couple sliced of breat with vegetables like lettuce, onions tomatoes on them. I only drink water green tea and juices. No pops. I dont dring any alcohol, i don't smoke non of that man. if that's not healthy than I don't know what is....
Breakfast (5:30 AM): 5 Egg Whites, 1 cup Oatmeal, 1 Banana, 8 oz. Orange Juice Snack (8:30 AM): Protein Shake Lunch (12:00 PM): White Meat, Vegetables Snack (3:00 PM): Glass of Skim Milk or Yogurt, Nutri-Grain Bar, Fruit Dinner (6:30 PM): White Meat, Salad, Brown Rice Snack (10:00 PM): Protein Shake, Cottage Cheese I allow myself one day to eat what I want each week. A few years back I weighed over 210 pounds - in other words, I was built like James Toney. With a diet similar to this, I was able to get down to 155 and I've been able to maintain it by eating like this just about every day. I'm around 160.
