I'll start.

Mostly veges and meat, with some fruit, no grains, lots of tea, water and the occasional diet soda *gasp!* at under 1750 calories a day.

Now you! :)

    1700-ish calories a day, no meat until dinner, mainly whole foods that I cook myself.

    I eat all of the things, but I discriminate based on salt.

    I prepare most of my own meals which consist of meats, veggies, some fruits, and some carbs; average 2300 cals a day.

    :)

    Cheers!

    I meet my daily macros/micros, stay within calorie deficit, and eat whatever I want.

    Look after the macros, and the calories will look after themselves.

    When I'm hungry, not when I'm full.

    Eat like a hobbit, focus on hitting protein macro first, and then consume whatever I want within my current calorie goal.

    I eat what want, and what does not agitate my disagreeable digestive system.

    I use a fork or spoon when necessary; otherwise, I use my hands and put it in my mouth, chew, then finally swallow. :bigsmile:

    Spicy! If I can't eat a lot I want to experience a cornucopia of taste. Lots of Indian dishes, Thai food, Vietnamese when eating out, and Mexican hot sauces in my chilis and burritos/fajitas and my daily V8 juice!

    I eat 6 times a day, but I don't deprive myself of the foods I like, just in moderation.

    CLEAN!!
  • Trying to ramp up on the non-meat protein (lentils, tofu & such) - adding more "superfood" type foods, but have a bad habit of liking lots of white wine. Staying within 1600 cals or just a bit over - because of the wine. Gotta break that habit!!

    80% healthy, 20% not so healthy. I exercise 6 days a week and on those days I eat around 1700-1900 calories. On my rest day (Friday) I eat around 1500 calories. A lot of fruit, a lot of protein (hard boiled eggs, tuna, cottage cheese, etc), starting to eat more vegetables, whole grain bread, and I indulge once a week (usually Saturdays) and eat things that I wouldn't normally eat during the weekdays (things like pizza, curry, sushi, nachos, alcohol, etc).

    Oops I guess this wasn't that short.... :) maaa bad.
