It's called the Warrior Diet, and it's basic idea is 'fasting' through the day, and eating one big meal in the evening with the basic order of raw veggies first, then cooked veggies, then protein, then any carbs. Also, avoiding as much sugar as possible, which I never had trouble with anyway.
Ok, so with that in mind, my day almost always goes as;
Coffee when I wake up, with splenda, or tea sometimes.
Usually a piece of fruit by noon
Workout around 1 or so, with a protein shake after
Sometimes another piece of fruit before dinner if I feel hungry
Dinner is either two-three heads of steamed broccoli, or a HUGE salad of romaine and spring mix with red peppers, hummus (or red beans) and sometimes tomatoes, mushrooms, artichoke hearts or an avocado.
Then, my protein is either salmon that I cook up, or chicken breasts. Sometimes pork or beef, but I just really like salmon and chicken heh.
Then, because I am almost full, either two pieces of multi-grain or whole wheat toast with some natural peanut butter, or some whole wheat or soy pasta with tomato sauce.
Often, I have a protein shake before bed too. :p
I eat a lot, I know, but I'm doing great and steady at losing bodyfat and putting on muscle, and I have FAR more energy than I EVER had before.
I think I might eat around 1800 calories a day, if not a bit more some days, but I also work out very intensely to balance it, not because I HAVE to, I just really like to! My metabolism used to be SO bad before, when I used to eat almost nothing, and then I'd crash and gorge when I couldn't keep that up...
