mostly food

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: a couple peanut butter sandwiches or quesadillas (just tortilla and shredded cheese, maybe a little hot sauce.) Sometimes I’ll add an egg to the quesadillas if I have time.

Lunch: none

Dinner: Beans and rice or maybe rice or ramen with some mixed frozen veg and furikake. Or just more peanut butter or coldcut sandwiches.

Being poor and too stressed/tired to give a fuck sucks. Just gotta make it a couple more months and I’ll be able to fix it all. That’s what I keep telling myself anyhow. Gonna try to scrape together some spare change this coming month for a bucket of Orgain or something. Extra protein, fiber, etc.

Breakfast Cafe con leche, sometimes with toast or oatmeal but always the coffee. Not right away, usually 3 hours after I get up.

Lunch usually leftovers from last night’s supper, if there isn’t any then a salad or sandwich or whatever the special is in the work cafe

Supper I cook so whatever I want. This week I have food to make one spaghetti day, one day steak & tomatoes marinated in preserved lemon and soy sauce, one day shrimp and pineapple skewers, one day halal chicken, one day beans, rice, and greens from the garden. There is no usual. Different stuff all the time.

Sometimes I bake too, this weekend making sourdough donuts.

Bruh I’m just trying to survive out here

Breakfast: Coffee, maybe with milk.
Lunch: Usually nothing, maybe a salad.
Dinner: Burritos

It works for me

I’m in the UK. Wtf is ‘Ezekial’ bread?

Not sure how old you are but you might want to mind the sodium content of the two tins of sardines. They likely exceed your daily allotment. I know people don’t worry about these things when they’re young but tge habits you build now will be with you when it does matter, and they will be hard to change.

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.

I just try to not eat too much processed food and go to the gym

• Breakfast: None.
• Lunch: Cereal if I feel like eating, otherwise I skip.
• Dinner: Chicken wraps, with tomato, lettuce, and Mayo.

I’ll eat a snack later in the evening if I’m still hungry.

Right now it’s oatmeal+cinnamon+maple syrup/honey + raisins with milk or water

I learned I love oatmeal

I do more of a 5 meal thing lately. I became very regimented over the last couple years.

Morning is a 2 hour procession of water, protein coffee, regular coffee, and oatmeal.

Late morning is a piece of Ezekiel toast with a light cream cheese spread and either smoked salmon or sliced chicken breast on it.

Early afternoon is often a full or half banana. Late afternoon is protein drink and either a banana or a rice cake with honey. These two mini meals bookend my workout.

Dinner is the wild card. Chicken, salmon, shrimp, scallops, tuna… all fair game. Usually with a vegetable and a an egg or half avocado.

Then my night snack is usually Greek yogurt with something mixed in. Mix ins range from Stur to blueberries to peanut butter… just depends on the day. I’ve also been known to do a hard boiled egg or two instead.

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.

Maybe I’m just tired after a 13 hour construction work day, but what is ezekial bread? Is this a christian bread?! And why? I googled it and it just seems to be whole grain bread?

I have:

Breakfast: random toast (peanut butter) or oatmeal (dried fruits)

Lunch: Apple, cheap superstore granola bar, Sandwiches - Winnipeg rye, lettuce sand which meat, homemade mayo, cheddar, random other ingredients. or Bulk homemade burritos - whole wheat tortillas, black beans, eggs, salsa, cheese, rice, random other ingredients.

Supper: wild variety of different meals.
