Ask Lemmy

I don’t really eat meals. I’m more of a grazer

mostly food

Hunger. It greeted the man at dawn, and laid down with him at dusk. Sometimes, its gnawing woke him up at night. There's only the hunger, the dead, and a terrible solution.

But for real, microwaved potatoes with whatever my CSA hooks me up with. I'm vegetarian for economic reasons, most of the time anyway.

Breakfast Cafe con leche, sometimes with toast or oatmeal but always the coffee. Not right away, usually 3 hours after I get up.

Lunch usually leftovers from last night's supper, if there isn't any then a salad or sandwich or whatever the special is in the work cafe

Supper I cook so whatever I want. This week I have food to make one spaghetti day, one day steak & tomatoes marinated in preserved lemon and soy sauce, one day shrimp and pineapple skewers, one day halal chicken, one day beans, rice, and greens from the garden. There is no usual. Different stuff all the time.

Sometimes I bake too, this weekend making sourdough donuts.

Breakfast: black coffee

Lunch: brown rice, cheese, jalapeno, red onion, some protein (usually chicken)

Dinner: salad (shredded cabbage, cheese, homemade balsamic vinaigrette, carrot, bell pepper, red onion) with something crunchy (currently gluten-free knekkebrød, but I'll be out after my next meal and it's not sold anymore here in Japan (or at least my area thereof)).

Snack/Dessert: chips and salsa or yogurt or peanuts and chocolate chips

Breakfast: a couple peanut butter sandwiches or quesadillas (just tortilla and shredded cheese, maybe a little hot sauce.) Sometimes I'll add an egg to the quesadillas if I have time.

Lunch: none

Dinner: Beans and rice or maybe rice or ramen with some mixed frozen veg and furikake. Or just more peanut butter or coldcut sandwiches.

Being poor and too stressed/tired to give a fuck sucks. Just gotta make it a couple more months and I'll be able to fix it all. That's what I keep telling myself anyhow. Gonna try to scrape together some spare change this coming month for a bucket of Orgain or something. Extra protein, fiber, etc.

I do two meals a day.

Brunch Most common, probably 2-3x a week: Bacon, egg & cheese biscuit, yogurt with fruit. Next most common: Protein shake, Fruit, Almonds

Supper Most common: Something high protein I can mean prep in advance. Chilli, Beans with pork, Rotiserie Chicken. All combined with a side of greens. Latest addition: Bowl of homemade peanut butter, banana, coffee.

Bruh I'm just trying to survive out here

I’m in the UK. Wtf is ‘Ezekial’ bread?

Breakfast: Coffee, maybe with milk.
Lunch: Usually nothing, maybe a salad.
Dinner: Burritos

It works for me

Not sure how old you are but you might want to mind the sodium content of the two tins of sardines. They likely exceed your daily allotment. I know people don't worry about these things when they're young but tge habits you build now will be with you when it does matter, and they will be hard to change.

Breakfast: no fucking way you chase me out of bed in time.

Lunch: leftovers from dinner.

Dinner: 300g of meat/ fish/ chicken. Salad (usually red onion, lettuce, peppers, feta cheese, cucumber).

I've got about 80% adherence to this diet. Either my belt has gotten longer or my waist has gotten smaller.

Brunch: pemmican

Dinner: every now and then pemmican

Snacks: none

One to two meals a day is the win

I just try to not eat too much processed food and go to the gym

Reading the comments mine might be the weirdest...

I have prediabetes along with a dozen other health conditions lol

I'm on a high fat diet.

I am here reading and snorting a bit about how particular some people are about their food and its protein content, and wondering who can afford all that salmon and greek yoghurt ... although, I'm fussy about my food as well, just in a different way.

Morning is home made sourdough, butter, cheese, often an egg, sometimes meat. Lunch is the same, if I don't forget. Dinner is either insane amounts of meat and vegetable, all home raised and grown, or something insanely unhealthy, like 1l of custard or a ramen soup or two pieces of cake. Meals I forget are replaced by coffee and a blunt (lots of small meals throughout the day are good for you!).

It's balanced in the way that very unhealthy things are combined with top quality stuff in a balanced way. 🧐

Since I often forget to eat I always have to have a quick option available, therefore custard and ramen are the lesser evils. Other than that I try to produce everything myself out of local ingredients and eat really well for really cheap.

• Breakfast: None.
• Lunch: Cereal if I feel like eating, otherwise I skip.
• Dinner: Chicken wraps, with tomato, lettuce, and Mayo.

I'll eat a snack later in the evening if I'm still hungry.
