So...I'm 27 and weigh in at 210lbs currently (very depressing as I'm usually around 170-180 max). I'm not BIG, but I'm not a comfortable body type either. I have a spare donut (not a tire) so I don't pooch out a whole lot, but enough that I don't want to wear any tight shirts (mediums hug me a little much so I usually for a large)
I think my main problem has been my wife want to eat out a LOT and I know that I don't help, I say no, she whines, I give in.....we're spending $400-500/month eating out easily. We don't go to too many expensive places, its dinners with her family and then through-out the week we're both tired (and terrible at grocery shopping apparently) and so we end up going out to eat. I used to eat out maybe once a week and it just seems its gotten way out of hand for both of us.
I want to eat more healthy/feel better, and get out of this 200+lbs crap (unless its muscle).
Anyway, to the point....I'm thinking about starting a p90x workout routine, maybe buy a treadmill in a few months or so after we get moved again (we've had tons of snow and it's freezing here, IN, so I can't run outside just yet). My main problem is figuring out what to eat.
My job is IT (help desk analyst) and my wife is a teacher so we both need something that'll be easy/quick to pack for work.
I'm just looking for some ideas of what we should eat (some good combinations of foods). So what should we eat (breakfast/snack/lunch/dinner)...we're going grocery shopping this weekend so, all input will be greatly appreciated! ^_^
