Don't Eat Like a Geminorum Tribble

Everyone knows they're supposed to eat healthy, but a lot of people have a hard time either finding the time, or the right foods to eat.  I've experimented with different food combinations and different diets and nothing really did it for me.  I usually get home around 8-9 pm depending on activities, and the last thing I want to do is pull out ingredients and spend 3o minutes making dinner.   If you're looking to get healthy and more importantly, lose weight, you have to understand that your diet can be up to 80% of your results.  To clarify, not a diet; your diet.  A lot of people ask what I eat; assuming I eat freshly grilled chicken and garden salads made that morning.  

There's a lot of things I do to try and curb hunger, and to get the most out of what I do eat, because seriously, I could eat like a Geminorum Tribble.  I'm always hungry.  The more I do, the more I'm hungry, which is not bad!  Your body needs the noms and you must deliver!  So what do I eat then, if it's not Paleo?  I'll make another post on tips for staying full, but for now, here is a typical day for me:

For breakfast I usually choose from 1 of 3 things, depending on my activities and future plans: AaronMFJ's Shake of Immortals™, Eggs of Doom™, or Cheap-Ass Cereal.  Honestly, I usually go for the cereal because it's fast and I can play some pre-work Xbox at the same time, or read up on some Reddit news.  My second choice is eggs.  I crack open 2 eggs and add salt, cayenne, basil, fat-free cheese, pepper, on some coconut oil.  I don't scramble it, but I crash the yolk so I can make almost an omelet style egg-age.  Once her majesty is completed, I add it to multi-grain sandwich thins.  I'll cover the shake on a different post.  It's magical.

Lunch!  Probably my favorite part of the day.  I used to make my lunch earlier in the day and take it to work.  This got to be tedious.  I mean, I can't make lunch and play Arkham City.  I'm fortunate enough to have a fully stocked kitchen at work with a wide range of nom-ables that is palatable to my gullet.  Things which are easily accessible and cheap to most people, and can be bought/brought/prepared at work for your consumption.  A typical lunch for me will be Healthy Choice Rotini & Zesty Marinara Sauce, baby carrots, Chobani Strawberry yogurt, and a Hershey Kiss to top it all off.  "What's that Mr. Jones, I see jell-O in that picture.  You didn't mention jell-O."  That's because I didn't eat it!  Empty calories and artificial colors; get that shit outta here.  You see, that Zesty Rotini isn't enough to be my main entree, so what did I do?  That's right, I added some canned chicken to that bruv to get some proteins in there.  I know there's 20g of sugar in that yogurt.  Sometimes I eat the plain flavor and add some Bran Buds for flavor.  Taters gonna tate.

Save the NERF for dessert


Around 3pm I'm feeling hungry again.  To keep myself from eating Bantha fodder and just grazing on stuff that is terrible for me (we have lots of cookies), I'll pull out those sandwich thins, add some peanut butter, and toast that saucer in the oven for a couple minutes until melty-goodness. 

I made 2 but forgot to take picture until it was too late

Dinner is another beast altogether.  It varies a ton but probably my favorite is chili.  Sunday night I will make a pot of rice and pot of chili.  This pot-o-gold will usually last me the whole week.  I use 99% fat-free chicken, all organic-low sodium ingredients, and a dash of vegetarian sausage.  Add some spices, mix that shit up and whooooooooo it's delicious!  Add some whole brown rice to the bottom of the bowl and chili on top.  Goes together like lamb and tuna fish.  Almost completely fat-free and healthy.

They feed this to you on Risa

TL;DR: Use your common sense and don't eat a bunch of shit and you'll be good.
