1 cup of Danon Light n' Fit Vanilla yogurt

Soup: Has chicken, red potatoes, carrots, cilantro, chicken broth, some water, tomatoes, squash, and mushrooms with some added basil and pepper for some added flavors.

100% whole wheat pita pocket + some white chicken breast I cooked with a lil soy sauce. + some steamed broccoli

Meal 1: Peanut Butter Sandwich

- Work -

Meal 2 (Lunch): Oatmeal and Protein

- After work -

Meal 3: Tons of meat and carbs.

- Lift -

Meal 4: Protein/Carbs/Meat

Meal 5: Cereal maybe

I just eat a lot of clean food.. don't restrict myself too hard on the amount (work screws everything up anyway). FYI, I'm the 'always hungry' type. On weekends I just eat and eat and eat (the 8 mile run on Saturdays should balance all the gorging :)).

Also, overslept today so I didn't really pack a lunch (hence the oatmeal bleh).

Edit: Also wanna add that (when I have enough food in the fridge :)) I generally eat about 5-6 chicken breast a day or 4 tilapia and 4-5 pieces of lean pork, etc. I mix up the meats and generally eat more fish when I run out of good meat (chicken and pork :D). I also make a point of eating a big unrestricted carb meal between friday and saturday. Not really for carb loading purposes, but more for the 8 mile run I do Saturday afternoon/night. So between friday and saturday I'll either have a whole box of speghetti (I can put these down like nothing) or homemade ghetto chili (can of Bush beans + Tostitos all natural salsa + 90/10 Ground Beef + Tobassco). Easily somewhere around 270-300 carbs (and very tasty!)

Meal 1:
Bannana & water

Brief 30 minute cycling

meal 2:
Oatmeal +milk (200 calories)

Meal 3:
Granny Smith Apple

Meal 4 (noon):
Soup: egg noodles, chicken, celery & carrots

Meal 5:
2x oranges (the small ones whose name I can't think of). Normally this would be a veggie, but I'm out of celery.

Meal 6/Dinner:
I haven't decided yet, but probably a spinach tortilla w/ lettuce, chopped carrots and a few chunks of steak.

Meal 1: 2 egg + 2 egg white omelette with 2 oz. ham, whole wheat english muffin w/ butter
Meal 2: Homemade chili with beef, beans, olives, bell peppers, green chilies, and tomatoes
Meal 3: Smoked turkey sandwich on rye bread with 3 oz. turkey, 1 slice 2% milk swiss cheese, and 1/2 tbsp light mayo
Meal 4: Not sure yet, but probably chicken stir fry with chicken, broccoli, zucchini, with a peanut butter/garlic/chili sauce

In between meals 2 and 3 I usually will have an ounce of smoked or raw almonds. For drinks I usually have water, but I also drink sugar-free kool-aid, crystal light, and arizona diet green tea. I'm losing fat right now, and I've dropped 20 pounds so far. I've got about 20 more to go.

Hm, I eat so frequently, I have trouble distributing them into meals.

1st: 1 cup granola + half scoop of protein (makes delicious, high protein choco-nola) + 6 oz of milk + 1 piece of 8 grain bread + 2 tbsp peanut butter
2nd: Cheese stick + pistachios
3rd: Plum + protein shake (2 scoops protein, 12 oz milk, 1 egg) + 1 banana
4th: 8 oz chicken breast + 3-4 oz spaghetti
5th: Tuna melt (Tuna + bread + cheese + 2 eggs)
6th: 3/4 cup cottage cheese + 1 scoop protein

I think that's it. I haven't checked if I need more calories than that for today to get ~3400. Sounds about right though.

Awesome meals guys. Love the variety. Wish it wasn't so hard to decide what to eat everyday. What are some good websites that you guys get your recipes/ideas from?

Meal 1

1 cup oats
1.5 scoops whey in water

Meals 2 and 3

3 whole eggs
0.75 cup cottage cheese
1 cup peas
2 tsp olive oil

Meal 4

1 cup oats
1.5 scoops whey

Meal 5 - PWO

70g dextrose
2 scoops whey

Meal 6

1 cup white rice
4 oz chicken breast

Meal 7

4 oz chicken breast
1.25 cup peas
10 fish oil caps
1 tbsp olive oil

I am currently cutting, so the portions will gradually be reduced as time goes on. Right now I'm at 3600 cals. This is pretty much my diet every workout day unless something unexpected comes up in my schedule. In that case, I'll just make do with oats and whey.

What's the calorie breakdown on each item? Cuz I'm pretty sure I eat more than that (well, more in the meat department), but I hardly reach 3600. I aim for more around 2800-3000.

I tend to take only 50-100g worth of powdered protein max. Prefer to eat my protein than drink it :)
