I have unintentionally become pescatarian recently because I’ve come to realize that fish have a lot of nutritional value. So far, my meal plan looks like this:
Breakfast
- 3 eggs
- 1 slice of Ezekial bread toasted
- Mixed berry smoothie with banana, peanut powder, collagen peptides, chia, creatine, non-fat greek yogurt, and water
Lunch
- 2 tin cans of sardines, mashed
- Non-fat greek yogurt
- Tzaziki sauce
- Lemon
- Black pepper
- 2 slices of Ezekial bread toast or one ezekial tortilla, depending on my mood
Dinner
- Shrimp kebabs made with olive oil and veggies
- 1 corn roll or asparagus
Some days I’ll switch out my dinner for a salmon salad / salmon wrap, or I’ll change the shrimp kebabs for a shrimp ceasar wrap with a nice avocado oil based dressing. Being pescatarian is really great because it’s easier to make, shelf life lasts very long, and it’s generally cheaper than buying meats.
Hunger. It greeted the man at dawn, and laid down with him at dusk. Sometimes, its gnawing woke him up at night. There’s only the hunger, the dead, and a terrible solution.
But for real, microwaved potatoes with whatever my CSA hooks me up with. I’m vegetarian for economic reasons, most of the time anyway.
Breakfast: Coffee, maybe with milk.
Lunch: Usually nothing, maybe a salad.
Dinner: BurritosIt works for me
the bowel mover diet
every meal:
- milk
- bread (really fatty croissants, to be precise. everything else gives me constipation)
- bananas
- bell pepper
- lots of tomatoes
i mostly don’t cook. i’m not cooking for 1 person only.
i don’t eat 3 meals a day. fuck that shit. snacks all the way.
Right now it’s oatmeal+cinnamon+maple syrup/honey + raisins with milk or water
I learned I love oatmeal
I am here reading and snorting a bit about how particular some people are about their food and its protein content, and wondering who can afford all that salmon and greek yoghurt … although, I’m fussy about my food as well, just in a different way.
Morning is home made sourdough, butter, cheese, often an egg, sometimes meat. Lunch is the same, if I don’t forget. Dinner is either insane amounts of meat and vegetable, all home raised and grown, or something insanely unhealthy, like 1l of custard or a ramen soup or two pieces of cake. Meals I forget are replaced by coffee and a blunt (lots of small meals throughout the day are good for you!).
It’s balanced in the way that very unhealthy things are combined with top quality stuff in a balanced way. 🧐
Since I often forget to eat I always have to have a quick option available, therefore custard and ramen are the lesser evils. Other than that I try to produce everything myself out of local ingredients and eat really well for really cheap.
For the last 20 years I’ve been eating only once a day (working shifts) so I’m trying to reintroduce a breakfast other than coffee with milk.
To facilitate it I’m trying the “everything smoothie” with milk, banana, cereal, protein, frozen fruits.
Lunch: water
Dinner: The everything rice with vegetables and chicken or fish.
Lately been eating mostly salads, fajitas (kinda) and pizza.
The fajitas instead of adding mexican spices to it I add soy sauce and sweet mead. Could maybe call it a stir fry wrap? Although the cooking is a bit slower than a typical stir fry.
Breakfast: black coffee
Lunch: brown rice, cheese, jalapeno, red onion, some protein (usually chicken)
Dinner: salad
Snack/Dessert: chips and salsa or yogurt or peanuts and chocolate chips
I have a weird diet that works well for me.
I don’t like fish. So it’s chicken thighs for me. I get the organic ones to avoid antibiotics. I take omega-3 supplements. Sardines are supposed to be very good for us, but I just can’t do it.
Breakfast: some baby carrots, and a handful of roasted cashews, plus coffee.
Main meal at lunchtime: spinach, brussel sprouts, broccoli, tomato, and onion heated up in the microwave, while the chicken pan-fries in olive oil. Topped with a simple Parmesan cheese sauce. Plus an apple.
Evening meal: frozen blueberries with a bit of instant coffee, cinnamon, sugar, and milk. A square of 85% dark chocolate.
I snack on nuts and drink decaf coffee throughout the day.
This has been my routine for over three years now. This is everything I eat, I don’t go out. The meals have varied only slightly over the years. For instance, I’m currently experimenting with replacing the chicken with lentils once or twice a week, to save some money and get a bit more fiber and reduce the calories, but it might be too much fiber.
Breakfast: cereal bar
Break: toast
Lunch: Ham sandwich
Dinner: chicken dinner; mash, chicken breast, peas, Yorkshire puddings, gravy.
I don’t really tend to eat snacks very often.
doesnt sound like youd poop very often too
once a day lol
This sounds very dry and very British.
Thank you. Although I do switch up dinner, this evening I had a gammon joint instead of chicken.
Main bulk of the meals are the same, of course there is some variation over time, but generally rather similar. Been tracking food for last 3 years with nearly 95% accuracy. And yes i can give any random day within last 3 years and know exactly what i ate, only exclusion is some events. Intake has been correlated to bodyweight changes over time as well.
Breakfast, always the same: custom mix. 200g of yogurt, 100g of quick oats, 30g of protein powder.
Lunch depends on a weekday and work.
Lunch 1: after gym, low fat curd 180-200g, yogurt 150g, protein powder 30g, quick oats 50g.
Lunch 2: on a workday, usually last nights dinners leftovers.
Dinner: potatoes/pasta/rice/buckwheat in rotation. Some lean meats and some greens. Usually 1/3 of the plate for each.
Snacks: that’s too random to write down and changes depending on what ohase im in, whatever mass gaining or fat burning.
Mediterranean diet, more or less.
Breakfast: toasts with grated tomatoes and olive oil, smoked salmon spread or some pate
Lunch: lentils, beans or chickpeas twice a week, pasta, tortilla, croquetas, stuff like that
Dinner: salad, fish, chicken or some omelette. some vegetables + bit of wine
Breakfast: no fucking way you chase me out of bed in time.
Lunch: leftovers from dinner.
Dinner: 300g of meat/ fish/ chicken. Salad (usually red onion, lettuce, peppers, feta cheese, cucumber).
I’ve got about 80% adherence to this diet. Either my belt has gotten longer or my waist has gotten smaller.
Right now I am on ~ 1000 calorie a day. Still have some weight to loose.
Breakfast: oatmeal with 1/2 cup of milk 2% + vitamins.
Lunch: most often a frozen healthy meal ~400cal or salad with meat + fruits.
Dinner: coffee with 2% 1/2 cup of milk, and usually 2 seeded thin toasts with 1tbs of sour cream / sometimes added some hard boiled eggs.
Snacks: sometimes crunchy rice rolls with honey, fruits or a tiny tiny bit of sweets (chocolate/cake etc)
May I recommend very low carb? No need to count calories and the weight just vanishes quickly
If you do it with high meat and meat fat you won’t lose muscle either
A couple of warnings: it takes up to a few weeks to become used to running on fat instead of sugar (running on fat is how it works), you will need extra salt during the first few weeks; see the keto community for more advice
I appreciate the advice! My problem is that I just love carb, like crazy.
And I only need to keep it up for about +60 days more.
I know very low calories with keto is the way to go if I want it fast, but so far I’m only about 60 days in with 30lbs loss, so that’s not too shabby in my books :D and I still can eat a bit of cheesecake. A tiny one, but it is still cheese cake!!
Breakfast, depends a lot on the day but a good one would generally have:
- Just Egg folded (vegan egg)
- Bread with butter and a slice of melty (vegan) cheese
- 2.5 or 3 breakfast sausage patties from Gardein
- Avocado
- Sprouts or cherry tomatoes
Some days it’s Soylent. I take B12 and D on a gummy.
Lunch my easy go-to I can eat almost any time:
- Gardein Supreme Chick’n nuggets (10)
- Fries
- Cheeze mozarella sticks (3 - 4)
- Avocado
- Microwaved broccoli
Dinner:
- Udon noodles
- Firm tofu
- Chinese chilli oil with flakes and peanuts
- Baby bok choy
Today I had:
- Swap chick’n inside
- 3 corn quesadillas with
- avocado
- Chinese chilli oil with flakes and peanuts
(Yes, I love avocado, I’m Mexican) While fish does have a lot of nutrients it’s quite easy to get them from other plant sources too :p
