Mr.Evil User ID: 31060254 United States 01/29/2013 08:29 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Lol! I eat 2 Chobani pineapple Greek yogurts for breakfast, mid snack, lunch, and after lunch snack. I usually eat 16 oz of boiled shrimp and mccormick cocktail sauce for dinner along beer, scotch, or a nice Cab till bedtime. When I have the kiddo, I'll order pizza or go out to eat. Every time I have my blood work done, my blood pressure and cholesterol levels come back perfect, not to mention I'm at about 9 or 10% body fat. Obviously I change it up when I'm on a date, but other than that, I keep pretty much the same pattern. Drives my girlfriends up the wall. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 33275875 United States 01/29/2013 08:36 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I did the same thing both times I was pregnant: breakfast: 2 boiled eggs over toast, fruit & oj lunch: tuna sandwhich, carrot salad, milk, fruit dinner: chicken breast, large salad, sough dough bread, vegetable, milk & lemon pie snacks: milk or fruit or carrots or celery or home-made lemon pie Couldn't stand any other kind of food. Didn't miss any other food. My husband worried but dr. said he'd never seen such a healthy pregnant woman and both babies were healthy. So don't think it hurts as long as it is balanced and no processed or junk food. |

I buy once/week. I spend about $160-180/month on groceries depeding on how much condiments I buy that month. - 4 lbs of chicken and 3 lbs of ground chuck a week - 2 lbs of dry rice(Jasmine) and 2 lbs of dry beans(black and kidney) a week - 36 eggs a week - a 42oz container quick oatmeal about every 2 weeks - 1 banana a day as snack - a couple fruit and veggies added in as snack I add in olive oil, macadamia nut oil, coconut oil, peanut butter, and some hot sauce and spices/flavorings and thats it. I take a multi-vit, vit B complex, vit B12, vit C, vit D, Cal/Mag/Zinc, salmon oil I dont get tired of it at all. I feel healthier than Ive ever been. Actually that is a fairly healthy menu except I would replace the rice with potatoes and butter since rice has very little nutrients and butter ads much needed fatty acids and other vitamin co-factors, I would also add some greens like spinach for minerals eaten with a fat like butter to help with absorption etc. Yeah I think its a pretty good/balanced plan too. I have actually switched up the oatmeal with potatoes in the past for breakfast with the eggs. I could have chicken and potatoes instead of chicken and rice. Ive actually thought of that myself. I may do that if I ever get tired of the chicken and rice. The potatoes do have a little better micronutrient profile and a good source of potassium. Its just so easy with the chicken and rice. True, also consider that you need at LEAST 4700mg(4.7grams) of potassium every day to prevent deficiency down the road. Most people don't get enough our soils used to have much more, it's hard to get enough. OP did mention adding potatoes which have a lot of potassium in them and drinking OJ. Here some potassium foods. It should be fairly easy to get the needed amounts per day. 1 cup OJ 450 1 cup V8 450 1 banana 467 1 Tablespoon black strap molasses 320 1 egg 55 1/4 cup raisins 553 1 cup grape juice 200 2 T peanut butter 214 1 cup apple juice 300 medium potato 926 4 oz chicken 458 4 ounces ground beef 361 1/2 c cantalope 825 1/2 grapefruit 825 1/10 watermelon 560 1 c coconut water 600 1 cup lima beans 955 |

Why not change it up... with really not adding anything extra to the plate.. Why not a beef/rice burrito... or chicken chill... or breakfast scrambled egg/chicken wrap in a tortilla with cheese.... There are so many varieties with even just what you have so it isn't monotonous?? Just saying! Stir fried chicken with veggies over rice... god I can go on and on.. |

If you are happy thats all that matters. you eat 5 eggs a day? how's the cholesterol? That is a total myth, the science has been updated...I would get a link but too lazy It IS a myth. Your liver manufactures 3-10 times more cholesterol than you consume. |

There are little variations throughout each meal but I do rely on cooking a big pot of stew or lentils or rice, etc. one day a week and that's my dinner for the week.
