Tea and water only until about 2 p.m.
Lunch around 2:00: usually leftovers, 250 - 350 calories.
Dinner around 8:30: we eat a great variety of meals/foods. During warm weather we cook outside most days - usually some type of grilled seafood/fish/meat and vegetables, often coupled with some type of salad. During the colder months we eat a lot of stews, chilis, soups, pasta, casseroles, etc.
Dessert: Usually something made with fruit and nuts, or nothing.0 -
Small breakfast (200-300 cals), medium lunch (400-500 cals), medium dinner (500-600 cals) and dessert (200-300 cals). I try to stay around 1600 calories a day.
Here is today's plan:
Breakfast - 2 eggs, 2 pieces bacon and a frozen Pillsbury biscuit (this is more than I usually have, usually it is just a protein bar, Kodiak pancake or muffin cup, oatmeal packet or sometimes nothing)
Lunch - 7 slices hard salami, 5 Kraft Sharp Cheddar Cracker cuts, baby carrots and 1 oz. bag of Lay's Sour Cream and Onion chips
Pre-workout - 2 scoops ON Amino Energy mixed with water
Dinner - Turkey Sandwich with Fresh Thyme's Bakers White Bread, 3 oz. turkey, 1 Kraft Big Slice Cheddar, 2 pieces bacon, lettuce and tomato with 1 oz Bag of Lay's BBQ Chips
Dessert - 1 pack Dole Strawberry Dippers and 3 Jolly Ranchers1 -
My diary is open. Typical day:
Breakfast: overnight oats and coffee, around 250-300 calories.
Morning snack: around 100 calories, say a banana or apple
Lunch: leftovers or soup or salad, around 300-400 calories
Afternoon: coffee with milk, sometimes another small snack
Dinner: I cook something. Last night was lemon chicken. Tonight is blackened salmon with roast veggies. Around 500 calories.
After dinner/bedtime: If I have calories left, another snack. Perhaps a glass of wine, air popped popcorn, small serving of ice cream.
If you do peruse my diary, last weekend was a long weekend with social events. Mostly within my calories, but some oddball choices. When at a hot dog roast, I eat the hot dogs. I was netting 1500 calories, but have tightened it up to 1270 (sigh) to try to knock off the last couple pounds and hit my goal by my target date of June 1.0 -
