Kinda an offshoot of the cooking for adult thread and seeing what people eat, though this would be an interesting thread.

I eat pretty varied, but I have a template I follow.

Breakfast is usually 4 scrambled and a bowl or rice cereal with whole milk. Or I skip it.

Lunch I pack or eat out. My go to lunch is usually burritos bowls with double meat, beans, salsa, and lettuce. Lunch is usually a protein--poultry, meat, or fish and rice, beans, or potatoes. I usually have an apple on the side.

Dinner is usually similar to lunch and I pack leftovers.

I do a lot of soups in the fall winter and eat more veggies in the spring summer.

Areas for improvement?

I don't eat too many veggies other than salads or lettuce added to burritos bowls.

Some of my go to snacks:
PBJ--Never gets old. Also the banana and PB version.
Smoked Oysters, Sardines.
Rice chex
Fruits--Apples are my favs

I usually cook breakfast and dinner and eat lunch out.
 
Breakfast is black coffee

Lunch is something low carb like a Cobb salad

Dinner is a ton of protein

Then a bag of gummy bears between dinner and bed. And maybe a soda to wash them down
 
Breakfast: Bacon and eggs
Lunch: Soup and brown bread
Snack: Apple
Tea: Meat based dish like fish and chips, steak and mushrooms, etc.
Snack 2: Dark chocolate
Supper: Krave cereal

Black tea, beer, orange juice, and water throughout the week.
 
No breakfast
Usually no lunch, but if I do, its Chipotle, sub, or a salad.

Huge dinner with massive carbs involved.
 
Breakfast: Some type of dal with rice.
Lunch: Usually a chickpea dish. A ramen once or three times a week.
Dinner: Typically a bean dish. I'll throw in some lamb dish about four times a month.

Snacks: Usually chocolate/candy bar.
Drinks: Water throughout the day. Make a pot of tea about every four hours.
Alcohol: Usually two six-packs of IPA a week.
 
Breakfast: Skip it, as I do intermittent fasting.

Lunch: Usually bacon, sausage or chicken thighs with eggs.

Dinner: Protein of some sort (chicken, steak, or fish) with either steamed vegetables and/or salad. Sometimes beef-mince with bolognese sauce and broccoli.

Snacks: Nuts (usually almonds, pistachios or cashews, raw) and/or a slice of cheese. Coffee.

I usually have a cheat day once a week where I'll eat whatever the hell I want.
 
Breakfast = Coffee with 1Tbsp of coconut oil and 1Tbsp of Kerrygold everyday to tide me over till my 1 or 2 pm lunch.

I don't really have a typical lunch or dinner, but my new lunch/really late breakfast kick is chili with two soft boiled eggs. So good. Dinner is usually a protein with some veggies and/or a salad, and some form of pasta maybe once a week.
 
Breakfast - Tea/Coffee, BLT or cheese tortilla. Sometimes I get lazy and the result is slice of toast, a tablespoon of coconut oil and cheese.

Lunch - Cup and a half of beans, meat and a couple tablespoons of olive oil

Dinner - Leftover meat and salad

Occasionally I'll have a cup of milk or juice and sometimes I eat two tablespoons worth of mixed nuts. Weekends are when I can have rice or some sweets. I try to avoid eating carbs more than twice a day so tortillas and bread don't mix.
 
Breakfast - Tea
Lunch - Salami sandwhich on whole wheat bread
Supper - Any food that can be cooked in a batch and eaten slowly over the week, such as spaghetti, chili, beef stew, soups, fajitas or chicken pot pies.
 
Breakfast - Steel Cut oatmeal or ham cubes and 3 eggs; cup of OJ; half a pot of coffee and half+half

Lunch - single serving of cottage cheese or yogurt; cup of V8

Dinner - Some kind of meat, usually chicken, and vegetables either cooked or in a salad.
 
Breakfast is coffee and either a bagel or nothing.

Lunch is usually a sandwich or salad.

Dinner is whatever we decide to cook on weeknights. Spaghetti, steak, pork chops, etc. Weekends is more eating out and pizza and Chinese food.
 
Today I had mini wheat's and coffee this AM. Veggie soup, crackers and water lunch. Roast beast, potatoes, rice for dinner. Coffee in between lots o coffee.
 
Breakfast - oatmeal and green tea
Lunch - microwavable meal like a panini
Snack - Protein Bar
Dinner - grilled teriyaki chicken or another protein with rice and broccoli or corn
Snack - Jello cup
 
No breakfast usually. Lunch is usually some sort of sandwich, and dinner varies. Yellow rice and chicken is very common at my house.
 
Breakfast - 1000-1500cal
lunch - 1800-2000cal
supper 1 - 1500+ cal
supper 2 - 2000+ cal

ie:

Supper 2: 1+lbs ground beef, plate full of mashed potatoes (5), 3 cups fresh broccoli, 1L chocolate milk and 1L water
 
Uzi 9 millahmetah
1 two gauge auto loader
45 long slide with laser sighting
Phase plasma rifle in the 40-watt range
 
breakfast: egg's and bacon or sausage ; or oatmeal with almonds and berries; or protein shake with berries
lunch: sandwich and apple or hot-dogs with a side of something or Ramen or skip
dinner: chicken or fish with rice and beans and a side of mixed veggies
 
When I was a lad I ate four dozen eggs
Ev'ry morning to help me get large
And now that I'm grown I eat five dozen eggs
So I'm roughly the size of a baaaaaarge!
 
one hour after i wake up: eggs with bread, or tuna with bread
eight hours later: pasta, pizza, rice with ground beef, rice with chicken, beef with salad, things like that.

little things if get hungry at some point: granola bar, apple, anchovies
 
Breakfast - 1000-1500cal

Breakfast= 8-10 eggs, usually raw. 1 baked potato or 1 sweet potato saute'd in butter.
Post-Workout: 1 liter of milk with 1 scoop of whey protein
Lunch=Rice with vegetables, tuna, or chicken
Afternoon Snack=Liter of milk with 1 scoop of whey
Dinner: 8 oz steak, fish, or a couple of hamburgers. 1 baked potato and some Peanut butter.
 
Breakfast - two hard boiled eggs, glass of kefir, and an orange. That's the quick & easy standard, usually 5 days a week. Sometimes I'll mix it up. Alternatives: scrambled eggs, steel cut oats w/ almonds + berries, cottage cheese + blackberries, chicken livers, hash browns.

Lunch - salad (I go light on the lettuce and heavy on everything else -- especially olive oil), meat (tuna, chicken, or salmon). My lunch is usually leftover dinner.

Dinner - same as lunch. I bake fries or sweet potatoes every once in a while.

Snacks - plain Greek yogurt + honey, whole wheat bread + seasoned olive oil, cheese, Greek salad (tomato, cucumber, feta cheese, drizzled w/ olive oil), sardines, almonds. I don't snack every day, but when I do, these are on rotation.

When I make a salad, I use as many vegetables as possible, and add fruit or nuts. I make a lot each time, so I have it ready to go for a few days. Current mixture is spinach, green + yellow peppers, dried cherries, craisins, carrots (lots of carrots... Maybe too many carrots), cherry tomatoes, cucumber, walnuts, and green onion.

I've been on a hot chocolate kick lately, but that's out of the ordinary for me. My go-to hot drink is green tea w/ honey, but I'll sometimes have decaf coffee with breakfast or dinner.
 
Breakfast- Either Corn Flakes or Oatmeal with unsweetened almond milk and whipped Peanut Butter melted on it.

Lunch- 4 ounces Low-Sodium turkey lunch meat over between 2-4 cups of whatever steamed vegetable is around. Lately I've been polishing it off with 2-3 cups of raw spinach.

Dinner- 2-4 cups of same steamed vegetable and between 4-8 ounces of usually either chicken breast, low-sodium turkey lunch meat, or tilapia.

Snacks throughout the day- Often I'll have some combination the following; Plain air-popped popcorn, More Oatmeal with whipped peanut butter in it but made with water, Corn Flakes with unsweetened almond milk, might have 3-4 ounces of the low-sodium turkey, maybe a chicken breast. I drink a ton of coffee and my homemade sugar-free, no sodium Cocoa.

I often have between 2-4 Sugar-Free pudding cups in a day.

I'm not diabetic or anything, I just always go for sugar-free if it's an option. I'll have something else if there isn't a SF option available.


EDIT: I'm just doing some cursory excursions into lifting and reading this thread makes me wanna fucking fall off the edge so I can eat like you mother fuckers. That shit is living!
 
Breakfast: 150 calories of protein powder (Milk and egg based)

Lunch: 250-600 calories of relatively lean meat, and vegetables. Sometimes starch.

During intense workouts (like weighted plyometrics): Orange Juice
Post-intense workouts: Protein powder + half water + half orange juice

Dinner: Chicken/Vegetable/Rice stir fry
-Chicken breast chunks
-Broccoli, mushrooms, onions, peppers, etc
-Brown rice
-Peanut/Sesame oil
-Garlic, Sriracha, Ginger, Onion Powder, Light soy sauce

On rare occasions I'll drink. Favorites are Kentucky Bourbon Ale and Leffe Blonde Ale. Good flavor, moderate amount of calories, high abv. Winning formula.

Eating like Kings.

my monthly cheat meal is usually an extra large papa john's supreme pizza minus mushrooms and onions.

Tell me more...
 
for the past month:

breakfast has been either a bit of granola with fat free greek yogurt, or egg whites with turkey sausage. Twice it was an english muffin toasted, with butter and honey.

lunch is usually leftovers from dinner the night before, or a salad.

dinner is varied, and I couldn't really say what it typically is. Tonight I had pork roast that I cooked in the crock pot with salsa verde. Yesterday I made some hamburger patties with 97 lean beef, and ate that with a bit of guacamole and some steamed broccoli and carrots. The day before it was a beef shepherd's pie that I made. Etc.

for snacks, it's generally stuff like a few raw nuts, or an apple, or some celery with peanut butter, or fat free cottage cheese.

Drinks are either water, black coffee (but I cheated this morning with a bit of honey), unsweetened tea, or la croix sparkling water (lime or grapefruit are the best)
 
Oatmeal and toast for breakfast is my only consistency. Pudding is common, as are salads a few times a week. If drinks count lattes and Yoo-hoo.

Your farts must be like a super power at this point
 
my dinners and lunches are switched around

so like ill have my moms cooking like curried chicken and rice and veg in the afternoon

but in the evening ill have a sandwich and a salad

but for breakfast i like a smoothie or some cottage cheese with maple surp

for snacks i eat fruit and like almonds, dates and yogurts and stuff honey

i dont eat too much bread, i limit it to like 2 slices a day because it makes you gain wheight real easy because the texture is so addicting
 
My diet has sucked since 2013 and the ice winds killed the garden.

1 package of rice gumbo with no butter for lunch and whatever quarter sized meal I can buy. Lately it's been soup, chili (made at home), or a club sandwich at Walmart. I'd cook more steak and meats, but time managment sucks.

Walmart has some healthy foods back by the deli. Low fat egg rolls, premade frozen clubs for $2.50, and Sam's special lunch meat, plus their fresh bread section isn't bad either.

Breakfast it's all about toast.
 
This isn't my typical breakfast. It's usually just a cup of coffee.

Breakfast: Eggo waffles with bacon and potatoes (leftover from Sunday)
Lunch: Salmon with rice
Dinner: Beef with rice
 
Whatever is available at home, which usually isn't much. I just snack on most days :/

When I have school it's usually either Japanese, Korean, or Chipotle :l
 
Black coffee or green tea for breakfast. Some sorta veggie/fruit juice. Sometimes half a bagel and schmear

Lunch is a salad or leftovers.

Dinner fish and veggies. Maybe potatoe or some rice.

Snack is cheese itz or something. Few pickles throughout the afternoon.
 
why dont you think mushrooms or onions are tasty??

mushrooms are like chewing on the earlobe of your crush

wow...


A typical day where I eat out would be something like...

Breakfast: Coffee, scrambled eggs, toast with peanut butter, milk
Lunch (eat out): Chicken fajitas (some chips and salsa included, water to drink)
Dinner: Mixed veggies, milk...or sometimes breakfast for dinner (since there are so many delicious ways to eat eggs...)
 
Today, start to finish.

2 strawberry pop tarts (~10:45a)
1 regular Quizno's chili (8 crackers. 8, Bob.) (~12:30p)
1 cereal bar (~1:00p)
1 24 oz Coke (~1:30p)
1 12 oz coffee (~3:00p)
1 Snickers bar (~3:00p)
1 20 oz Cherry Coke (~5:00p)
2 Dannon strawberry fat free yogurts (~7:30p) (not my favorite brand, as an aside)
1.5 16.9 oz bottled water (all day)

Too much soda, really.

You're kidding yeah? If not you should expect metabolic syndrome soonish.
 
Basically whatever I can find or whatever is being made.

For breakfast today I had some mozzarella sticks that I got at a convenience store, a S'more Pop Tart for lunch when I got home, and I'm going to reheat some chicken noodle soup up in a little bit for dinner.

There is room for improvement. Though I only drink water, milk, and coffee, so my beverage choices aren't too bad.
 
Breakfast - CLIF bar + two bottles of water
Lunch - Frozen burrito, or sometimes a salad
Dinner - Extremely variable, but basically whatever I can get my hands on. Also depends on whether I go to the meal hall.

Also usually a couple Cherry Coke Zeros and maybe one heavy beer or two light beers.
