in the autumn and winter i tend to eat less carbohydrates and more protein, ive noticed it makes my metabolism go crazy (seems like im always hungry... like right now  )
since im usually lazy about that sort of thing, although i eat well i have pretty poor variety... i try to take a vitamin supplement to make up for that. when i eat out, i like to get different things that i dont like to cook normally (vegetables, for one) so, for me, a fairly big part of eating at restaurants is having foods that i dont usually have access to since they take too long/too complicated to cook.
most of what i eat is simple foods, meat, bread, vegetables, fruit, etc. that are easy to prepare. |
1/4 cup of almonds - 170 calories, 5g carbs[4g fiber, 1g sugar] 7g protein, 15g fat
Vegan patty - 110 calories, 4.5g fat, 13g carb[4g fiber, 1g sugar], 5g protein
Edamame - 1.5cups(3 servings, or entire bag) 360 calories, 15g fat, 24g carb[15g fiber, 3g sugar], 30g protein
Almonds, I usually do 1/4 cup in morning, afternoon, and evening.
and drink lots of water 100oz.
and various fruits[grapes apples and bananas]
and various steamed vegetables[broccolil, carrots, green beans].. usually around 1200-1300 calories total by the end of the day.
3 times a week though, i'll go up to 1900-2100 when im doing tennis.
