    Easy for me to write up. I eat almost the same thing every day.

    Breakfast: bowl of cereal.

    Lunch: peanut butter sandwich and an apple.

    Snack: carrots or nuts (I love cashews). If I'm going to exercise, I drink a slim-fast.

    Dinner: varies, but always a vegetable and almost always chicken or pasta.
    On lucky days, we have chicken and pasta.

    Ice cream three or four times a week after the kid goes to bed.

    Where I get in trouble is when I'm away from home - vacation, conferences, etc. It's hard to eat well on the road even if you just order "salads."

      Dr. Oz (yes, I'm embarrassed to be quoting him, but he actually gives out very good medical advice) tells people that they need to get into a routine of eating the same things every day. From my experience, it works for me.

        OK. How many calories is that? Because that seems like a lot less than I eat, even when I'm not nursing.
        What's to explain? It's a bunch of people, most of whom you've never met, who are just as likely to be homicidal maniacs as they are to be normal everyday people, with whom you share the minutiae of your everyday life. It's totally normal, and everyone would understand.

          Breakfast: bowl of granola or oatmeal with soy milk or yogurt.
          Lunch: salad wrap or a subway 6" sandwich (turkey or tuna). no cheese. no chips.
          Dinner: Salmon, chicken, venison. Brown rice. Lots of steamed veggies and salads. Light on potatoes. Very little bread.

              Ha.

              I am trying to lose weight. Down 15 lbs so far. More to go.

                See the lack of variety is where I would struggle greatly in the menu area.

                I just can't eat the EXACT same thing day after day.

                  My diet is nothing like many that have been shared. One of the biggest reasons I run 30 miles a week is so I can eat whatever I want to. I do try to eat fairly healthy during the week, (non-sweet cereal or yogurt for breakfast, salad for lunch, reasonable portions of whatever my wife makes for dinner), but Friday through Sunday, it is no holds barred. Bacon and eggs for breakfast, big bowls of ice cream for dessert, chicken wings, chips, and whatever else I can find when I'm watching a game.

                  I like food too much to eat too much bland food, or to eat the same thing every day. What fun is that?

                    I've seen Solon and Lebowski. They both have the body of a Buddhist God.

                      Your avatar is the greatest t-shirt in the history of the world, and that would include the "Go Climb a Rock" and "Go Hike the Canyon" Yosemite t-shirts from the 70s.

                      As for this thread, I eat whatever I feel like eating, so I am a bad benchmark.

                        I'm a marvel of evolution. Normal people need more calories.
