Can you give me some ideal of what you eat for b-fast,lunch,supper and snack!!

Well, I haven't had a fill yet and it's long overdue because I can eat anything and everything.... but here's what I've eaten today:

B: Oatmeal squares cereal with 2% milk

L: Turkey sandwich on white bread (bad, I know!) with provolone

S: Chips and salsa

D: I'm baking chicken breasts as we speak... with green beans.

I vary my breakfasts quite a lot - cereal, fruit, yogurt or some combination of 2 or 3 of those, occasionally eggs, very very occasionally pancakes.

lunch is normally either fruit and yogurt if on the run or some kind of salad, sometimes dinner leftovers if suitable

dinner - so many things to have for dinner, occasionally it's Pasta of some description, most often its a Protein (like chicken) only rarely plain, tonight we're having Thai chicken Cakes - and salad or vegetables.

I dont eat dessert.

I have a Protein shake as SOON as I get up everyday - soo great for the metabolism (that is what makes the taste manageable)! Then, a few hours later I have "breakfast", which usually includes 1 egg cooked somehow and a yogurt smoothie. Maybe even a few strawberries or 1/2 a banana on the side.

For lunch, I have 1/2 cup of cottage cheese or a yogurt with 1/2 Peanut Butter sandwich on low-carb bread or turkey and provolone on a low carb tortilla. I can't eat lettuce, but you could add lettuce for some variety (if you can eat it) Yesterday, I tried a South Beach wrap for lunch, but didn't enjoy it too much!

For dinner, I have a good source of protein (lean hamburger, chicken breast, pork loin, etc) and a vegetable of some sort - unfortunately the veggie is usually some potato dish (stick to 1/2 cup or less and it's not so bad) No bad carbs at dinner (no refined sugars or white breads!!!)

For my snack, I count up my propel drinks for the day, add in my Fiber choice tablets, and if I have room in my calories for the day, I will have an apple or some grapes - or, if the chocolate urge is in full gear, I will have a sugar-free chocolate pudding!!!

But, hey - what do I know? My weight hasn't changed since going back on solids!! I have not had a fill yet either, so my portions may be too big, but they are definitely much smaller than before!

Good luck (I hope this helps!!)

Breakfast is usually a yogurt (yoplait lite about 100 cals), then I usually have fruit for a snack sometime before lunch (apple, or some florida citrus, or a banana), lunch is usually a half a sandwich and a bowl of Soup (sandwich is lean meat, mustard, and lettuce, or simple a tomato sandwich and soup is one of the lean Soups usually around 100 cals), and another snack of fruit, then dinner is a frozen michelinas lean meal (they range around 120 to 300 cals) and fat free sugar free pudding or Jello for dessert. I only drink Water for liquids.

That is a typical day for me. I stay in a range of about 800 to 1000 cals a day. It is tough, but if i focus on it I can do it well.
