lunches

Hey guys, just wanted to show you some of the meals I pack and how I eat when I am not home.
I commute to college and for the majority of the week I am in school for about 6 to 8 hours a day. Now, thats a long time so I always pack enough food with me and stick to my diet. 
In college there are so many things that can throw you off track with your diet such as the price of food (which is always expensive) or the quality of the food.
Some of my friends ask me how I have the time to make my meals and I just tell them to cook ahead of time and prepare for the coming week. 
Don't give yourself excuses to go off track your diet!

School lunch

Finally got back to school after a long summer. It's hard to eat healthy in college because fast food is easily accessible. I try my best to eat healthy meals like what I ate for lunch: salmon, some brown rice, and corn/peas. Fill a quarter of the plate with carbohydrates (rice, potatoes, etc), another quarter with vegetables and the remaining space with couple pieces of meat. Eat lean protein and whole-grain carbohydrates like brown rice and potatoes. Saves your cholesterol level and sharp increases in blood sugar.

Lunch Time

Lunch:
2 Burger patties w/ tomato, mustard and ketchup on sourdough bread
Handful of Sun chips
~8 ounces of orange juice + seltzer
and..... Ben and Jerry's new Greek Yogurt ice cream. Flavor: Peanut butter Banana

Yeah that's right. Ice Cream

Carbing up and a little bit of cheating.. yummmm

before bed

Got back from a late night Grocery run. Ran out of cottage cheese, but now I've got more than enough for the rest of the week. Woo Hoo!


.... and this is what I eat before bed every night:
1 cup of cottage cheese with handful of walnuts and a spoonful of honey. I eyeball the amount of honey and walnuts.
Some days I want a nuttier and sweeter cottage cheese, other days its the opposite.
* I also use mixed nuts... walnuts are too pricy so they're like a delicacy.
