Alright, time for another check into what you all are eating.
Here is my schedule. I have been working to change it/improve it and still keep things in my diet that actually taste good. As you can see, weekends are still my killer, but I am working on it. Hard part for me is I try to keep my grocery bill around $50 if possible. You all give some good recipe suggestions, but I need enough food for 14 meals on a lower budget.
My weekday meals are typically:
Breakfast at Work: 2 Turkey Kielbasa links (each one is hot dog size), and a thing of greek yogurt.
Lunch: (Depending on price) either a can of soup (usually progresso/campbell's healthy) OR half of a salad kit (usually light Caesar, has lettuce, a few krutons, and dressing) to which I add some sliced turkey lunch meat to give it more protein and calories.
Dinner: I eat eggs usually 3 times per week. Meaning I'll usually saute some onion and crack 4 eggs into it, and have some turkey bacon with it.
Other meals may be chicken/cheap meat and a thing of microwave steamed veggies or something.
Weekends is where I go a bit off. I usually have Subway once or twice. I've been trying to find stuff to make more, and allowing myself to have things that aren't quite as good for you in order to get myself to eat at home. I have gotten turkey dogs or things like that.
What do you all eat on a weekly basis? Do you have food that you buy every week? Do I need to change my habits a bit (aside from the obvious weekend).
Here are my staples:
Breakfasts:
5-6 eggs depending on size, two slices of cheese, basically just scrambled.
1c Greek yogurt mixed with a scoop of protein powder and a handful of strawberries.
Lunches/dinners
Chicken breast baked in a little bit of Italian dressing, soy sauce, and franks redhot with a baked sweet potato and/or frozen broccoli boiled to be non-chewy.
1 large can of tuna mixed with a little bit of miracle whip thrown into a bowl with a bunch of lettuce and cucumbers
A can of baked beans with some type of protein mixed in (usually chicken or ham) I eat it with a fork so I can drain off as much of the sugary gravy as possible while I eat it.
Those would be the things I make regularly, Ofc there are a few common additions that I wouldn't call staples but I eat relatively often.
Homemade "protein" bars consisting of mostly oatmeal, protein powder and peanut butter. Some small amounts of honey, chocolate, peanuts, dried cranberries mixed in as well.
Some kind of salad ordered from a local sub shop with cold cuts/tuna/chicken on it.
A few protein shakes a week if I'm hurting for protein on a given day. (Just protein powder and milk)
And the occasional meatloaf or roast beef or pot roast, with sweet potato or other veg.
