Here is what I can give you in terms of my so called "diet". I don't count calories or macros even though I should. If I can get all my calories and macros down for everything besides my dinner meal with my family then that meal would be the only one that would be changing daily.
Breakfast-- 6 days per week is 1 cup of oatmeal, 1 cup of lowfat yogurt, 1banana, 1 hard boiled egg. Sunday is either 4 medium sized pancakes or 6 scrambled eggs with 3 links sausage and 2 cups hashbrowns
Lunch--- any of the following but 5 days of the week I have the chicken
8oz chicken breast 1 cup white rice
2 roast beef and turkey with 1 slice of cheese sandwiches
1 day of week I get a foot long subway club
Dinner--- any of the following includes either noodles, mashed or red potatoes, or white rice
and either green beans or corn
Chicken, Cod, Pork loins, Steak, 80/20 hamburger, Lasagna, Spaghetti, 1 day is
always hamburger helper of the kids choice because they really like them
Snacks-- I usually eat 1 hard boiled egg and a bag of carrots in between bkfst and lunch
I eat 2 hardboiled eggs between lunch and dinner
After dinner snack is usually a sandwich with just peanut butter between 8:30/9
sometimes I eat cheese and crackers instead though
I know it is a horrible diet, if you even want to call it that. I am not the biggest dessert person. I don't like sweet potatoes so that would be out for any options. I am also picky with a few other things but mainly onions and peppers and the such.
I am open any and all suggestions concerning diet as long as I have a lot of options for dinner. If I have to buy more chicken or red meat or pork for all my other food intake I am all for that. I do all the cooking for my family so I can pre make all my daytime meals on Sunday.
Although I don't want to be a bodybuilder, I would like to look muscular with an easily maintained lower bodyfat percentage anywhere in the 10 to no more than 15 percent. Some measurements as of tonight are chest 52 1/2, waist at bellybutton 41 (fat I know), bicep 18 1/2, forearm 14 1/4, quads 24 1/2 (chicken legs), calves 18. I am a big guy but I see fat and small arms and chicken legs where as others say I am intimidating looking ( I do shave my head and have a long goatee though.)
Hopefully this helps.
