Pork tenderloin. And beer.

Breakfast: Protein shake Lunch: Pork tenderloin, brown rice, broccoli Dinner: Same as Lunch Snacks: Cherry Greek yogurt, smoked almonds

Currently my snacks are smoked almonds, smoked Swiss cheese, nova lox, and smoked uncured ham. I have 3 smokers so I may as well put them to use.

During the week, it's grilled chicken with some sort of veggie.

My afternoon snack is 1 small Fuji apple, 2oz. smoked almonds, and 1oz. smoked sharp cheddar cheese.

I can't stand how some people insist on "organic" or "non-GMO" products as if you are not eating healthy because you are just eating "regular" food. I also despise quinoa, kale, and beets.

The recommended daily allowance is 2300mg of sodium. For people like me, over 50 and/or have heart disease, 1500mg is suggested. But remember that with exercise and drinking plenty of water, going over 500mg isn't that big of a deal. Too little sodium is also bad with the recommendation not to go below 500mg daily.

1 cup of granola cereal with raisins and 1 cup of 2% reduced fat milk.

Usually grilled chicken breast and some sort of veggie.

When I'm sick, I do not worry about calories. I can get back on track when feeling better.

Be a jerk at the office and no one will ever offer you anything. Works for me.

Lunch and Dinner for Mon-Fri: Grilled chicken thighs, brown rice w/ peas, and steamed broccoli. I eat this every week then it's BBQ, pasta, etc. on the weekends.

Smoke roasted chicken, brussels sprouts, and baby gold potatoes. (Saturday's Dinner) NY Strip, poutine, and grilled asparagus. (Sunday's Dinner) Tonight, having smoked stuffed pork chops, mashed potatoes w/ country gravy, and sweet corn seasoned with Old Bay.

NY Strip, poutine, and grilled asparagus.

Smoke roasted chicken leg quarters, brussels sprouts, and baby gold potatoes.

I don't necessarily weigh and log everything. If I cook at home, I weigh and log the ingredients unless it's bbq then all bets are off. When I'm at a restaurant, I see if they have a website with nutritional value. If they don't, I just guesstimate. Most importantly, do what works for you, and the rest of the world be…

Nothing better than eating a dead carcass especially if you killed it yourself.

I will eat everything that is on the table...just not as much.

Any BBQ - pulled pork, brisket, chicken, etc. w/ a good dry rub like Salt Lick Garlic and smoked over oak, hickory, or mesquite.

If you are on a low sodium diet like me, Swiss is the way to go. Otherwise, eat what you like.

Grilled chicken, steamed broccoli and cauliflower, and buttered pasta.

Grilled pork chop, brown rice, and green beans.

* Grilled chicken seasoned with salt, pepper, and italian seasoning; * Birdseye steamfresh broccoli and cauliflower topped with grated parmesan; and * Barilla ready pasta w/ garlic butter. Entire meal takes about 10 minutes to prepare.

Lettuce and spices.

I'm on a low sodium diet (1500mg/day). I plan my meals ahead of time and read labels for hidden sodium. It's not really that difficult.

Salt, pepper, and a little granulated garlic is all a steak needs. I like to reverse sear my thick steaks and top them with a blue cheese compound butter.

I season chicken breasts with Bolner's Fiesta Chicken Fajita seasoning (no salt variety) and smoke them using apple wood. Take 'em off at 165F and they are juicy and flavorful.

I like to grill and/or smoke meat on the weekends. I portion it out and vacuum seal them for dinners during the week. Throw in a bag of microwaveable veggies and dinner usually takes about 10 minutes.

Zero out a scale with a container on it and shake the salt into it. One tsp of table salt is approximately 2300mg of sodium. As for it being a lot, that really is dependent on the individual and whether or not you are on a sodium restrictive diet due to medical reasons. I have cardiomyopathy and limit my sodium intake to…
