What you been eating?

[Serpent]

What's a typical day's intake for you? I thought it might be interesting to list what we eat in any given day and see how our diets are.

I'll start with yesterday:

Breakfast - Four weetbix with honey, half a banana and soy milk.

Mid-morning - A long roll with salami, semi-dried tomatoes and brie cheese, no butter.

Lunch - A large chicken ceaser salad.

Mid afternoon - An apple and blueberry muffin (it was one of those Nothing Naughty ones with no extra sugar or fat and stuff. It's wholemeal and just nummy!)

Dinner- Large fish fillet with rice and miso soup.

I also snacked on some fuit during the day. All in all that's a pretty light day for me as I usually eat like a horse and burn a lot of calories through training.

What about you?

[FatherDog]

Average day:

Breakfast: Large bagel with cream cheese and a Slimfast shake.

Lunch: Rare roast beef sandwhich on wheat bread.

Dinner: 1 lb steak with bread and butter, or 1 lb pasta with marinara and sausage sauce, or whatever my mother or I feel like making that evening (usually an equivalent amount of food) It's been mostly chicken noodle soup this week; we made a gigantic pot of it on Monday.

Late evening snack: Fruit or bread, possibly yoghurt. Occasionally pretzels.

I usually have a glass or two of wine with dinner, and sometimes some port in the evening. I drink somewhere between a gallon and a gallon and a half of water over the course of a day, and I take a variety of vitamin supplements (including glucosamine sulfate and oyster shell calcium.)

[StarBoy]

Breakfast: Bowl of Raisin Bran with half a sliced banana (pretty much every morning). Once in a while, crepes w/ fresh fruit.

Lunch: Grilled cheese with mushrooms and tomato (or something similar)

Dinner: Either Rice and Beans or Rice and Stir fry (usually chicken though I'm trying out a venison stir fry for the first time tomorrow).

Snacks: apple sauce or pear sauce (homemade, no sugar or preservatives) or just raw fruit or vegetables. Sometimes just a glass of milk.

[ZIM]

ok ok just trolling. I never really paid that much attention to it, to tell the truth.

I did do a year's worth of culinary arts, so I tend to like a lot of butter, red meat, rich garlicy sauces, crunchy breads, wine, etc.

No ulcers, no great weight, all real food [I almost never microwave things, for example, and my food is FRESH]... cardio probly sucks, but never got a bad report from the docs yet and I'm pushing 40.

[prana]

breakfast : couple toasts with full fat butter, iced-coffee
snack : usually breakfast bars or chocolate bars whever hungry
lunch : noodles, or sushi
snack : more chocolate
dinner : home cooked meal, usually mostly veges and rice; and more chocolate

[abobo]

Breakfast - oatmeal, eggs, yogurt, banana, milk (occasionally toast)

mid morning - orange, milk

Lunch - soup, salad, fish, steamed vegetables, rice, beans, banana

afternoon - lots of nuts, orange, milk

dinner - salad, pasta, seafood or sometimes poultry, potatoes, boiled egg, dessert

evening - subway sandwich (once a week or so) or some microwave dinner

before bed - milk

I drink water with most meals.

Once I start trying to bulk up I'll throw in some milkshakes too.

[Serpent]

Yeah, I don't even own a microwave. Horrible things. I always try to eat fresh stuff, usually as raw as possible.

Abobo, you got a big appetite, man, you eat more than me!

Well, I don't eat steak every day; that's just an example dinner. I vary up my evening meal a lot, with variously prepared chicken, homemade pizza from scratch, etc. Steak and pasta just happen to be dinners that my average week will almost always include.

Plus, I like steak.

Breakfast and lunch are pretty standard, though. I take some kind of fruit for lunch (in addition to my sandwich) sometimes, and sometimes I don't.

[Ming Yue]

Breakfast: coffee, cottage cheese w/fruit or cold cereal

snack: piece of cheese, or little piece of chicken, sometimes fruit

lunch: a cup of chicken salad w/light mayo, grapes, apples, nuts & celery with cracked black pepper, Iced tea or carrot/orange juice.

aft. snack: handful of d trail mix from the hippie health food store, or a nutrition bar

dinner: usually chicken or pork, sometimes beef, we've had venison a couple times lately. stir fry or grilled (mmmmm deerburgers)with veggies and/or salad. If it's late, frozen pizza or pan-fried chinese vegetable dumplings.

before bed: sometimes frozen yogurt, almost always a big glass of 1%milk

I drink about a gallon of water a day, on on days when I'm training/working out (M T W TH and Sat - ideally, but not lately) I drink more and will have higher protein snacks.

I also drink generally a glass of wine with dinner (red) or sometimes a mixed drink.
