Funny you should post this, as I have begun to think that although I feel like I am eating enough, I am constantly hungry. I am a terrible creature of habit, and everyday I eat the same things. Breakfast is a bagel (180 cal) with just a touch of margarine, and either a bowl of soy cereal or a bowl of oatmeal. I eat this at 5:30 am, because I leave for work at 6am. Around 10am I eat a banana, 11am I try to drink a protein shake, and at 1pm I have a Lean Cuisine. During the afternoon, I have an apple, and 5 crackers with a small smear of peanut butter on them. For dinner, I have a chicken breast, cauliflower and broccoli, with some margarine and parmesan cheese on it. Once in a while, I will have some rice with dinner. My treat is popcorn during the evening. I'm not sure how many calories all this adds up to.
I do 4 cardio sessions per week, and try hit each body part twice with MIS or the PS series. I am at a weight that I am happy with, so I am not cutting out calories on purpose. It's just that eating at work is so difficult. But I have been really tired lately, and am thinking I need to eat more. I do eat more on weekends, as we go out to dinner or lunch. Sometimes I eat candy or cookies, but I am extremely sensitive to sugar, and if I overindulge, I get very grumpy the next day.
Just writing this down makes me realize that I am probably not fueling my body properly. :-hmmm I used to always write down what I ate, but that was when I was trying to lose weight.
I would really love to hear what others typically eat! LoriV...what do your 5 small meals consist of?
