About what I eat & when I eat it:
Here is an example of what I eat every day:
Breakfast- 1 banana, 1 Thick & Creamy lite yogurt, 1 boiled egg.
Lunch- 1 banana, 1 Thick & Creamy yogurt, 1 boiled egg, & a High Protien Slimfast meal bar.
Dinner- 1 big bowl of hearts of romain lettuce, topped with "Free Zesty Italian" dressing, 2 sliced boiled eggs, shedded cheese, & grilled chicken strips, I also eat another yogurt/or banana as well. In between meals I may grab a handful of raisons or a spoonful of peanut butter.
Some other dinner items I incorperate are a Turkey sandwich on whole wheat with lite dressing, or a 6 inch turkey sub from Subway, or canned corn, or 2 Baked breaded flounder that I make into a sandwich with of course Whole wheat bread.
The main thing is I make sure I never over eat.. & if I feel at all like I may have just a tad, I make myself pay for it by doing extra time on the bike. And as far as drinks go, water, water, water, & a glass of V-8 Fusion Lite. I take a multi vitamin twice a day as well.
There are lots of different flavors of the yoplait(not sure of the spelling) lite yogurt to choose from too so you can keep your taste buds happy & they are surprisingly good & good for you & they only have 100 calories each if you get the lite.
So basicly I am staying roughly at or below 1500 calories a day with the things I mentioned above, and it's working for me, it's not always fun of course, but the results make it worth it.
