Hi All
Im looking to just get generally healthy. Tad over weight (small belly) but not totally unfit - i usually play football, cricket and climb regularly but that has all slipped recently. But its picking up now.
I don't want a "diet" as such - still want the treats in moderation - but just a general good eating habit.
This is what im currently aiming to maintain...please advise if i need more of something or less than something if needed:
Breakfast - Museli, slice of toast and a coffee. Some times juice.
Lunch - (i have a job that invovles visiting our customers so i kind of eat inbetween calls and this is generally what i live on in the day)
1 Bananna, 3 Carrots, 2 handfulls of Grapes, 2 Tangerines, Mixed nuts with choc rasins in there (good ratio though) and a simple meat sandwich (plain ham or chicken) for protein.
Will throw in a bacon sandwhich and maybe a coke maybe twice a week in there but still eat the fruit and drink nothing but water.
Dinner - (salad = lettuice, cucumber, tomato, peppers, onion, nuts)
Grilled Chicken, Salad, Jacket Potato and some Beans.
Stew - Diced beef, 2 mixed veg caserole packs and thick white bread.
Grilled Burgers, Oven Chips and Salad.
My girlfriend will cook a curry or hunters chicken once a week something like that.
Will have a desert. maybe some pop or beer. supper will be something like scrambled egg on toast, pizza or something.
Will have a take away once a week.
This is combined with running or cycling, as well as sports. So in general i think im pretty balanced...if i can stick to it...sometimes ill have the bacon sandwhich everyday and several take outs...need to work on it =)
