Coffee. Unhealthy amounts of coffee.

Coffee, water and bread

I eat like I’m in an apocalypse survival game. What did my survivor find to eat today? Ooh, root beer and string cheese.

Cheese. I’m pretty sure I never go a day without eating some cheese. Cheese is the best.

Breakfast on weekdays is peanut butter on wholemeal toast. With a huge cup of coffee.

Throughout the day I drink water flavoured by raspberries and blueberries.

Dinner (or lunch to the rest of the English speaking world, I’m from northern England) is a chickpea and mixed vegetable salad I prep for the week on Sunday.

Tea (main evening meal) is normally a pie or something breaded like a Kiev or fish served with chips (chunky fries) and mixed frozen vegetables. Then Greek yoghurt with mashed frozen raspberries and blueberries for dessert.

As a snack most days some digestive biscuits with a cup of tea (what’s normally called breakfast tea).

Saturdays I skip breakfast and have a bacon sandwich for dinner.

Once a month I order a huge calzone for tea on a Saturday (my local takeaway calls it the Monster, it has every kind of meat they serve in it) which I dunk in mayonnaise and pig out on whilst drinking a Doombar. Then I have another Doombar whilst smoking a cigar afterwards. Normally there’s enough calzone left for food the following day.

Breakfast is almost ALWAYS toast with crunchy peanut butter and honey on it.

Unsweetened Greek yogurt with berries and granola for breakfast or a bagel and a hard boiled egg

Lunch: whatever leftovers I packed from dinner yesterday

Dinner: tacos, pasta, burgers, steak, sandwiches, wraps, or if I’m feeling lazy a bagel and cream cheese

What I can

Food and liquids.

At 8 o’clock in the morning, I’ll have fish and a rice cake. At 10 o’clock, I’ll have fish. At 12 o’clock, I’ll have fish and a rice cake. At 2 o’clock, I’ll have fish. At 4 o’clock, just before I train, I’ll have fish and a rice cake. I’ll train and I’ll have me fish and I’ll come home, have some more fish with a rice cake and then have some fish before I go to bed and that’s it for the day.

Rolled oats with either yogurt or milk for breakfast, 9 out of ten days, and 2 L of water during the day

Eggs in some fashion

Coffee

A homemade sandwich with a glass of water.

I’m part of a veg co-op so get amazing, locally grown veg pretty cheap. So I’m eating very seasonally lately and it’s nice. Last week was an aubergine glut so I made baba ganoush. This week we get squashes for the first time this year, I’m excited!

I get to work and make myself a toasted bagel sandwich with jam and vegan cream cheese. I also make a flask of earl grey tea with a teaspoon of sugar. Lunch is often a veggie burrito. Dinner depends. Usually stew or curry or stir fry.
