I would love to get an idea of what other people are eating and what helps you be successful. What do you eat on a typical day?

I try to stay away from processed crap, but everything is a go. Today I had a Greek yogurt and an Atkins cafe caramel for breakfast, two chicken legs and some tuna for lunch, mixed fruit, hummus, and pita chips for snack/dinner. I will probably have another protein item before bed, but I am pretty much done for the day.

Yesterday:

Bfast= 1 scrambled egg, one slice of bacon I made twice this much and had to refrigerate the rest.

Lunch= Some almonds, 3 slices of deli meat

Snack= one apple in the morning and some beef Jerky in the afternoon.

Dinner= Green Chili Stew/pork 6 ozs, over a burger. I'm surprised I ate the whole thing?

Today

Bfast= 1 fried egg, smothered in 4 ozs of green chili stew and pork.

Snack= 1 pear

Lunch= 2 slices deli meat, 4 shrimp w/cocktail sauce.

Dinner=Leftover Filet Mignon 3 ozs(all I could eat), spinach and veggie salad w/olive oil, balsamic vinegerette, some crumbled feta cheese,

I also exercise multiple times a week. I have started jogging again and do that 3-4 times a week for 1hr or so. I have also intermittently attended aqua classes, but have found lately that home exercise is easiest due to my schedule.
