Here's what I ate today Anonymous
Breakfast: 1.5 cups Cheerios with skim milk.
Lunch: Green salad with a lot of cauliflower and hard boiled eggs. Some oil and vinegar for dressing, and a little cottage cheese on the side.
Dinner: .25 cup white rice, a lot of broccoli and cauliflower, and a whole can of kidney beans.

Alright, how do I grade?

I burned 425 calories on the elliptical and and spent about 20 minutes on arm strength with free weights. I lift after dinner, hence the carb-heavy dinner. Pic is me at my new year's party, looking awful fucking fat.

Don't forget to add some lean meats and some fruit couldn't hurt.
Also if you want to try something different than olive oil, or what ever oil you use on your salads you might want to try Udo's oil, I thin kit taste great.
Also having something small after working out isn't a bad idea either.

Good god, you LIKE it?

I think it's okay but I could never take it without immediately chasing it with my protein shake (usually the only time I take it)
I mean it's not horrible but damn

I know, I know. Lots of smaller meals is better. Unfortunately, it's just not that feasible right now with work. I think I'll be able to do it eventually.

Yeah, now that I think about it, I left out fruit. Glaring problem. I bought bananas today, so that'll be fixed tomorrow. Are lean meats better than eggs? I definitely eat meat, but I was under the impression eggs were a little healthier.

I'll check out the Udo's oil. Never heard of it.

I like it :P
And you don't have to drink it directly, you can put it in your shakes..... Also you can use half udos, and half olive oil, with a splash of vinegar, and a pinch of salt and pepper on top of micro greens for a good healthy tasty salad :D

Of course eggs are awesome. They're also a great source of vitamin b2. But they lack zinc, calcium and iron which is usually found in other "whole" meats.
Chicken breast: Fairly inexpensive, low in fat, and full of protein.

OP, your the footballer with the knee problems right? How's the knee treating you? I'm not sure if you read my earlier response, but I suggested leg extensions with light weight (working your way up).

Ideally, you should have six smalls meals a day, to maximize your body's metabolism. It ends up looking like this:

1st meal: Protein, carbohydrate.
2nd meal: Protein, carbohydrate.
3rd meal: Protein, carbohydrate.
4th meal: Protein, vegetable.
5th meal: Protein, vegetable.
6th meal: Protein, vegetable.

For protein, use your basic meats; fish, chicken, beef, ham. For carbohydrates, rice, beans, potatoes, light pasta, oatmeal. For veggies, green beans, cauliflower, broccoli, salad. Make sure you keep enough variety going so that you get plenty of nutrients.

Wow, yeah, you remembered. That's me.

I'm still working out, but low impact. My knees are still sore (very tight), and I'm icing them every night. I'm doing 35-40 minutes on the elliptical machine, and it says I'm around 400-450 caloried burned at that point. I'm considering stopping working out completely until my knees are healed, but I can't imagine that the elliptical is making things worse.

I must have missed your post on the other thread. Leg extentions, eh? Okay. I'll try that tonight. Thanks for the tip!

Does that schedule take into account when you're working out? I mean, I was under the assumption that you want carbs early in the day, and before you work out.

As for my eating today, I wasn't as good.

Breakfast: 2 Cups Cheerios, banana and milk.
Lunch: A fucking big pre-made salad with breaded buffalo chicken strips on top and ranch dressing. I know. Stupid.
Dinner: I made a Boboli pizza with my wife. It was a whole grain crust, with sauce, cheese, pepperoni, and onion. I had four pieces, along with a can of green beans.

Not as good as yesterday, but not anything close to how bad I have ate in the past.

You should eat a small snack in between meals to prevent your body from being overly hungry later. 5-6 hours in between meals, can lead to you being more hungry than you should be which causes you to make poor meal time decisions based on impulse, which most likely leads to your unhealthy meal time decisions.
Try eating a hand full of nuts, almonds are awesome. Granola(low sugar kind if you can find it), banana's, and apples also work well for snacks.

.25 cups of rice? Thats already made rice, right? Jesus Christ, eat more for dinner. How can that even be filling?

I'm working on that. Nuts I actually hadn't thought of. I gotta get those extra snacks in there somehow, but it's hard to work in. I've been including apples and bananas in meals already. Bananas have been substituted in for candy and other empty calorie snacks for when I get hungry at night.

I cooked a half cup of rice. Uncooked rice actually goes a loooooong way, so .25 cup is actually a decent side. I also had a ton of broccoli and cauliflower and kidney beans, so I was plenty full. When I'm through with this bag of white rice, I'm going to get brown rice, it's a little healthier.

I haven't binged for three days, gotta keep this up.

Off to the gym, will post later.

I eat three meals too and I'm fine. Although I'm a woman so that's different. Do you drink tons of water at all? I find that drinking a lot of water daily helps with losing weight and flushing the body of toxins.

Trying to drink a lot of water. I refill the bottle at least twice during my workouts.

During the day, I drink wayyyy too much diet pepsi. I think once I can kick that, things are going to get much better.

1. Quit Smoking (Last smoked December 10th)
2. Start working out REGULARLY (Done great the last two weeks)
3. Eat healthy, create calorie deficit (Doing okay this past week)
4. Eliminate caffiene and artificial sweetener. This is going to be rough.

Anyway, my body already feels different. I don't look any different (as far as I can tell), and I don't think I've lost any weight, but there's this weird feeling. It seems like I can feel the fat. Like I'm a skinny guy with all this shit all over me. It's starting to creep me out.

Oh man not the diet soda. I tried a single can of that stuff and ended up with an upset stomach and diarrhea.

I know it'll be tough to avoid the sweetners and caffine. But you quite smoking though! I'm not a smoker so I guess I can't say anything but I'd imagine cigarettes would be the most addictive.

>It seems like I can feel the fat. Like I'm a skinny guy with all this shit all over me. It's starting to creep me out.

I think I know what you're talking about. There's a heavyness right? I feel like that too sometimes it's weird. I'm not overweight either I'm 115 lbs
