I couldn't eat those items individually within a few HOURS of
one another!

Awesome

 

Phoebe:

The portions for lunch are small.

Pongi:

Pozole is a mexican dish consisting of either goat or pork meat with hominy (white corn) - all cooked in broth with "mexican" spices.

Thanks for the compliments. HA!

 

Koko,

I wasn't referring to amounts; it was the combinations that made my stomach cringe
I'm a real weak sister.

 

I've been hitting the gym pretty hard for the last few months and keep a daily diary of my foods, but as a typical day:

Breakfast: 1 glass water, tea- plain, 2 egg white omelet, 2 sl whole wheat toast 1 t butter sub

snack: water, fist size portion of either tuna in water, lf cottage cheese and a piece of fruit or something similar.

lunch: water, usually a portion of leftover from the night before.
today was gumbo with b/l chix and turkey brst.

snack: water, apple/banana

dinner: water, protein supplement, creatine monohydrate (weight lifting supp) usually low fat and balanced between protein, carb and fat. But normal stuff. Plain burger, b/l chix brst, small amount of pasta, salad and vegetable. No extra salt.

dessert: tea-plain, small bowl of sherbert or dry cereal or rice cracker w/ 1 T peanut butter.

Believe it or not it's not a bad diet at all. I don't suffer and I'm rarely hungry, not to mention I am getting stronger and losing body fat!

Gosh, thanks for the reality check, I should have checked out by now.

 

Panini:
Unsure if I'm overstepping my bounds but alot of my students got their "reality" check when I assigned a nutrition project where they inventoried all - and I mean all - food intake for an entire week. The effort required a caloric, mineral, fat and vitamin breakdown. Did THAT assignment change their eating habits or what?!?!?

 

Breakfast: Egg whites and bits of cream cheese, scrambled; few strips of bacon (the kosher type, of course....NOT ; cup of Alterra's Blue Heeler with mulling spices and half and half

Lunch: A leftover turkey sausage, a little hummus with a few rice crackers, sugar-free jello, diet root beer

Dinner: Latkes (potato pancakes) with applesauce and sour cream; tastes of various pot luck items, too numberous to mention- but only a bite or two of each! We had a Chanukah pot luck dinner before our regular Sabbath worship service. Challah and a very small bite of apple cake after Sabbath services. Oh, yeah, a slug of sweet wine to bless it all! :beer:

so I finished work at 6 in the morning, I went to Mcdonalds ( pardon the bad words please ). and I had an orange juice and a hashbrown with ketchup. Then I went to the YMYWCA, and swam laps for about an hour. After that I went to another Mcdonalds ( oops I did it again) for my real breakfast which consisted of a Cafe Mocha, Sausage Mcmuffin and hashbrown, and a raspberry yogurt muffin. Then I went home and slept until late evening ( because I had to work again thursday night). For dinner I roasted some chicken legs and served them with rice and green peas, then at work ( we're talking 2am friday now) I had a hamurger steak with teriyaki sauce, and left over rice and veggies from dinner at home. Probably not the best diet, but hey I don't do it all the time.

 

CoolJ, are you on the graveyard shift? I just finished doing mine a couple of months ago...

 

I've been on and off Graveyard shift since the middle of '99, more on than off though. I think it works out to something like 6 months off of them in the past three years.

 

Ok I guess that we are talking about a regular day.

Breakfast : 4 cups of coffee
Snack : 4 cups of coffee and a small apple
Lunch: steak or grilled fish
Afternoon Snack : a couple of whiskies ( ok!! I cheat maybe 4 whiskies )
Dinner: usually yoghurt with muesli or green salad with feta cheese and olive oil
