to be honest mayor, i thought you were pretty annoying for a minute but after seeing your outlook on fitness, i +%%$ with you. you can take your shots orwhatever but you asked for people to provide input and i'll do so to help out all the fellow dudes who wanna stay in shape.
it's much more cost effective and nutritious to cook than it is to order out so i basically cook every day and i also try to stay away from the expensiveorganic food spots like whole foods because it's a bit expensive so..
for breakfast, i usually eat special k and fruit (bananas, oranges and apples are my favorites). most people will say special k is disgusting and i oncethought so too but it comes in great flavors. the best ones are the fruit & yogurt and the almond kind. i could eat bowls of this for breakfast, lunch anddinner to be honest.. it's a great cereal and the only one i've messed with since i started exercising.
i buy several bags of dole salads and eat them for lunch. they're a little expensive (like $5 for one bag and it adds up when you buy a bunch at once) andfor some reason, i only find them in super wal-marts of my area. once again, they have every type of salad you can imagine, including crutons and dressing (ifnecessary) in the bag. this can get a bit mundane after a while so i buy (frozen) tyson diced chicken from the market also, cook it real quick and throw it inthe salad so it adds a little more flavor.
for dinner, i eat a lot of baked foods like baked fish and chicken. you can google some recipes for these and it can be relatively inexpensive, especially incomparison to buying it from an organic place that charges through the roof. i also eat a lot of pasta with whole wheat bread on the side, too.
i buy these 100 calorie packaged apples and caramel things that have 5 or 6 fresh apple slices and a little container of caramel that i sometimes eat as snacksthroughout the day. it definitely holds me over for a mid-day snack and sometimes, i just eat the sliced apples. they're great.. i stole the idea from mylittle sister.
i also drink nothing but water.. if i run out and can't get any til the next day or something, i'll drink concentrated juice but nothing more thanthat. it's more out of habit than anything but it's great.. after a while, your body just feels cleaner as a result.
