My diet:
I wake up and have a couple cups of green tea, with honey and lemon. I follow that up with my daily vitamin shake.
Get to work and have breakfast which is usually an english muffin with a slice of deli meat and slice of cheese, a glass of soy milk, and a banana. Sometimes (about once a week) I forego the usual and end up walking down to the commissary for a nice Mexican Breakfast Burrito, consisting of diced ham, sausage, bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, tomatoes, and cheese all wrapped up in a nice flour tortilla with two scrambled eggs and a liberal dousing of Tapatio. Good sh*t.
At about 10am I have a piece of fruit and a big handful of nuts.
At noon, I have lunch, which can vary but I try to keep it light. No fast food, ever, unless I am in a real hurry and even then I try to have Subway or the like. I have a rule, I avoid fried foods. No chips, no fries, etc. When I return to the office after lunch, I have another cup of green tea.
At about 3pm, I have a Balance bar (protein bar).
At anywhere between 5:30pm and 7pm, I get off work and hit the gym. After that, I have dinner which is usually some sort of poultry. Sometimes I marinade some chicken breasts and have them with brown rice, which is a delicious and great alternative to white rice. If you aren't into the brown rice, try cooking it using chicken broth instead of water, and a dash of curry. Oh hell yes, really good! Or, a nice chicken curry with brown rice, or I brown some ground turkey, add in some bottled spaghetti sauce, and serve over pasta. All are served with a very large green salad (I use red lettuce blends, not iceberg which are devoid of good nutrients), a half avocado if I can afford it that week, a raw carrot, and a glass of non-fat milk (served ice cold.. f*** yeah!). I usually only eat beef when I eat out at a restaurant. Hey, if you are eating out at a restaurant, why order the chicken? And when at a restaurant, I stick to red wine if I want alcohol.
