So now that i am loosing weight and getting in shape I have many people ask me what i eat.. Or I also get asked,, what should i be eating? It really amazes me that many people really dont know when and what to eat.
I have been a fan of eating for quite some time.. I enjoy food, the smell the taste. This is probably the reason I have been overweight most my life. But I have gotten close to being content with eating clean. That does not mean I never have cheeseburgers, or onion rings, or even chocolate. Because who can live without chocolate?? Not me :). I have taught myself to eat healthy, and to make better choices.
Here are some of the food choices I make,, because its all about choices :) First, before I make a long list of the food I eat, I want to tell you that I do eat every three hours. Doing this keeps your metabloism red hot, and also helps run your body efficiently.
Breakfast choices for me
Ezekiel bread w pb
omlette
protien shake
cereal, Kashi, cheios, fiber one
oatmeal
fruit
protien bar
alternative bagel w pb
Lunch
salads, loaded w vegs, light dressing
Dressings I use include Walden Farms vinegrette, Kens light vidaia onion, light ranch
sandwich on arnold protien bread
I use boars head meat to limit process junk,,
chicken and vegs
sometimes sweet potato
brown rice
steak n vegs
wraps, mainly lower carb ones
chili
ground turkey w mixed vegs
ground buffalo w mixed vegs
broccoli, green beans
Dinner
chicken n vegs
steak n vegs
salad w lean protien
chili
baked ziti (on occasion) whole wheat pasta, marinara
ground turkey w vegs
Snacks
protien shakes
protien bars
greek yogurt, sometimes w granola
fruit, apples grapes, pinneapple, strawberries, blueberries
almonds
apple and pb
rice cakes w pb n banana, or strawberries
ezekiel bread w pb
boiled eggs
These are just are just the foods off the top of my head. I hope I have helpped you get some new ideas about what to eat. For me it is easier to eat mostly the same food, because the more i get off tract, the harder it is to know what i putting in my mouth. Keeping tract of how much and what you put in your body is very important, especially when wanting to loose fat. Nobody said loosing weight is easy, but having knowlege behind you deffinately helps :).
I would like to know some of your favorite foods, or some of the staples in your pantry,, There are many alteratives out there for some of your favorite foods,, and some of them arent too aweful bad!
Good luck with your eating :) Let me know If I can help, I know for me it can be a constant struggle!!
