I think a lot of people tend to eat roughly the same things for most days of the week. For myself I have a protein shake every day made with rice milk, rice protein, berries, flax, nut butter, also fruit throughout, always chicken or fish, always some kind of green veggie or two, lots of water, etc. How about you?

Hello again, It sounds like you eat really similar to me! Interesting...oh and yes i usually have my coffee too with an artificial sweeter. I know so bad for you, but I guess it's my only vice.

You know I didn't know that in Mexico they ate that much bread? I thought it was more of a European thing where you're offered bread all day long when you visit over there.

Hi Hatley: I forgot bread, thanks for remember me this thing. In my family we eat almost every day bread for breakfast or for dinner with chocolate or coffe. My mom is preparing salads and veggies for breakfast more often these days for our own health.

If possible i get my Müsli with milk every morning, it is simply one of the only kinds of breakfast that doesnt make me hungry within the next 1-1½hrs of intake...

Hi downwindz, I've always enjoyed musli with milk, well until the day I became allergic to grains and dairy, but yummy nevertheless.

My eating habits are very inconsistent. Generally don't eat the same foods each day. I do manage to eat fish once or twice a week and drink lots of water. Am also a soda freak so I do drink Pepsi daily. Try to eat chicken once a week also. Am pretty bad about eating veggies but love green veggies.

Hi carolbee, I also try to do the fish one or twice a week. Well it's good that you drink lots of water though. Yeah I don't always eat as many veggies as I should either...

Hi ilyzium, the one thing which I eat every day is Greek yogurt with honey, it's just about the staple food here as well as being delicious. If it's summer I will also eat salad every day as I love it, and variety comes from using different dressings each time. I doubt that a day goes by without olive oil going in or on something.

Hi xannebull, Yeah some cultures have to eat their rice every day. One of my friends is Phillipino and she has to eat her rice 3x/day! Even for breakfast!

It depends on what meal it is. I do have favorites for each meal (breakfast, lunch, and dinner), but I don't necessarily eat them everyday. Maybe most days, but not everyday. For breakfast it is plain oatmeal with brown sugar. I may add in some yogurt every now and then. I also love to drink orange juice in the morning. That I can have everyday. For lunch a plain turkey and Swiss cheese sandwich. It has to have some lettuce and tomatoes with a bit of fat free mayonnaise, as well. I usually drink a diet coke or diet pepsi with this meal. For dinner it's plain old rice and chicken. I prefer bbq chicken. I end up spraying some fat free butter on the rice for some flavoring. Sometimes I add soy sauce on the rice. If all these meals sound a bit health conscious that is because I can't eat heavy foods on a daily basis. I like foods that give me a lot of energy and don't leave me with a stuffed feeling.

Hi greatsasuke, I completely understand what you are saying, because I too do not like eating rich heavy food that regularly. I find they just deplete you of energy and make you more sluggish. I do a few of those things that you mentioned also, like spraying that fat free spray, using low sodium soy sauce (don't like too much sodium).

Hello Ilyzium. I believe you're right, and that many of us do indeed eat some of the same things each day. I cannot remember a day in years that I've not had milk, for instance, or some kind of fruit and whole grain cereal. The other things do vary from day to day, though. Karen

Oh hi karen, I used to eat like you before too where every morning I'd have my Fibre 1 cereal with skim milk, until the day I found out that I'm allergic to both dairy and wheat! If you're fine with it why not...

Hi loganirado, Oh i love yogurt myself, especially Balkan yogurt with honey, true. However, I'm allergic to all DAIRY so I rarely eat it unfortunately. :(

the food i eat every day is bread. I don't know how does it work there in the US, but here in italy we eat fresh bread every day, with something like sousage, speck and ham. The other foods i eat are pasta, rice, lasagne and others. I eat a lot of meat, every day i eat meat, also 2 times or much per day. I know that it's bad to eat so much meat but i can't resist, i love meat.

Hi codris, Yes I know when I'm in Italy or anywhere in Europe for that matter, I eat a lot of bread as it's always offered all day long! We're not really used to that here in North America, but yeah we'll eat it with prosciutto, yes speck, cheeses, whatever...The funny thing is that I eat a lot richer food when in Europe and ALWAYS lose weight! Pretty nice..

Hey starsailover, Oh you have quite the "sweet tooth" don't you? Yes well although I can't eat chocolate I will eat some kind of sweet, maybe once a week or every other week.

I drink a glass of orange juice everyday. That's it for the most part. I switch between yogurt and cereal for breakfast everyday.

Hi Lcrkar, I used to do the yogurt and cereal in the past also, but never got into the juice thing. I'd rather eat my fruit in the form of, well, fruit than a drink.
