Typically, I start my day with a bowl of plain oatmeal and mix in about 2 tablespoons of Cold Milled Flax.
I was a 4 cups plus a day coffee drinker. However, lately I only drink coffee about 1 or 2 times per month. It was hard to quit, but after about six months I don't notice any difference in my activity level...meaning...I don't need the caffeine to get started in the morning. I drink tons of water throughout the day. I take a nalgene bottle so I can monitor my intake.
Lunch normally consists of 4 oz portion of fish (normally salmon or white fish). I will add a super large salad or ton of brocolli. I don't measure my veggies. I just try to maximize what I eat. Again, I will drink a water at lunch. It sounds a little boring, but after a few weeks of eating this way you actually begin to crave the vegetables and the water. Dinner varies week to week. I like to eat as many vegetables as possible and fresh is always best. I do buy a lot of frozen vegetables though. Sams Club has nice portions of mixed, broccoli, etc... My goal is to fill at least 2/3 of my plate with veggies and fill in the rest with turkey, chicken, or fish. I will make brown rice or basmati rice too. However, I really keep the starches to a minimum.
