Every week I fill two large Tupperware containers with a salad. I eat one right away for dinner, and a couple days later I take the other to work for lunch, or eat it for dinner. Today is typical, I went to the upscale market and got organic lettuce, cucumber, broccoli, and a bell pepper. I also got the best olives I could find, and some cheese. I use just a little salad dressing. I change ingredients seasonally, or if something looks really good. Suggestions welcomed.
I also eat a raw organic carrot almost every night, eat brown rice, and get the kick-ass miso soup at the Vietnamese restaurant at least once a week. Workday breakfasts are shredded wheat and soy milk. I hope the XPT PWE (Porn Whore Emeritus) approves.
Vegetarian, or anything else, is not that difficult. Most families and singles have about 10 or so evening meals they keep going through over and over. Just start replacing some of those with whatever new thing you are experimenting with. I've tried macrobiotics, but it is too hard for single and lazy. But I learned a lot and eat healthier now. I started as a junk food vegetarian, but after the heart attack I started to try to eat better.

I hear you. I am trying to back in shape after cancer and chemo and it is a pain. Too many bags of chips and hot dogs. LOL How did you get over the taste of soy milk? I tried it once and puked in the sink.

That's great about the cancer being operable. My biggest problem is portion control and learning to cook. I'm the typical american male. If it's a bag or can I'll eat it. I literally have no idea how to cook real food. Always ate in the mess hall on base and now am forced at 39 to learn how to feed myself.  Am reading a lot of different book and everyone has a different opinion on how the body works and how to get back into shape.

Hey CK, I did da cancer dance too! No chemo, though just radiation. The best thing I ever did was read Bill Phillip's Body For Life. Easy to follow workouts, easy to follow eating advice. I try and get a little more technical with the eating, but this book is an excellent place to start.

I've heard about Body for life but have not read it yet. The new apartment complex I'm moving into has a fitness center that I can start using. Granted its all machines instead of free weights but it does have some cardio stuff as well

Sounds like you are doing well, too. Don't deny that. About the cooking -
Keep it simple, but accept most days you will need an hour and some effort.
Always clean up the same day, so you don't get overwhelmed. Keep the kitchen an inviting place to work.
Get what you need to have leftovers, Tupperware, wrapping foil, whatever. Make leftovers a part of the plan. If you make, say, spaghetti, realize you will have enough for two or three meals, and go with it. Leftovers are essential for single folks, makes it worth the effort, and reduces the effort on leftover day.
Use paper plates, single pot meals, etc. when you can.
Many recipes can be made without all the ingredients called for. Use the spices you like. Play around a little, when you make something you like, incorporate it into the 10 meals I mentioned earlier.
Get a good, healthy breakfast that is easy to work with, and stick to it.
Lunches can be two simple sandwiches and a piece of fruit, and that works well if you go out to a restaurant with friends once or twice a week.
If you don't want to eat it, don't put it in the cart. Do some thinking before heading to the grocery, and try to exercise discipline when you are in there. If it isn't in the cart, you don't get it at home.
A couple times a week, you can say fuck it, but keep your core diet healthy.
Exercise. Find something fun. I used to play softball, now my dog hikes me in the woods. And I get off my ass and work around the house.
Most important, keep that kitchen clean, so when you feel like cooking, you can go get creative without having to battle. The sink is the most important, keep the sink absolutely clean. Don't leave the house with a dirty sink.
Not that I am a perfect role model, but these are things that work for me. Simple common sense trumps all the fancy stuff you may read.

This may sound kinda stupid but my doc told me to get about 20 - 30 grams of fiber a day to help lower my cholestorol. How the hell do you eat 30 grams of fiber in a day?

Do any of you know a good website or book that will show me the machine weight equivilent of free weights? Most of the exercises I see are based on using dumbells or barbells not machines.

Do they have any kind of cable machine? I prefer them to other machine weights. You should find a gym with free weights, though. Quite a difference. Oh and I'm doing that Mexican rollup thing with whole grain tortillas again. Fuck it's good...

I try and do either ground turkey or bison, but it's a lean ground beef night tonight (no car, bus strike = no options). I found this fucking great salsa made by Herdez. It is without peer...
Did you lose a lot of weight after treatment? I know another great book for getting your size up. Oh, and after surgery and radiation my first machine bench press was 60(!) pounds. Talk about a humbling experience....

Nope. I was one of those who gained massive amounts because of treatments. I went from 155 to 112 because of the lymphoma and then up to 232 because of chemo and overeating. Everyone who came into that damn hospital room took one look at me at 112 and started stuffing food down my pie-hole  They meant well but I really don't think anyone believed I was going to make it so the just said WTF.

There is some serious multigrain bread out there with large amounts of fiber. Add the olive oil and omega 3 oils and the good chol. should go up while the bad goes down.

Pollo Alla Romana (Chicken Roman-style)...
I've made something similar with sauvignon blanc (reduced) instead of the vinegar and olives in lieu of anchovies. Great stuff.

AWESOME advice! I used to eat off smaller dishes and use chopsticks to slow down my eating and portion control. It worked. Another thing that helps is to have no beverages with meals or only water. So much of hunger is really dehydration. Get more fresh, juicy fruits in your diet throughout the day, too.

Why drink grape juice when you can have grapes? Kinda like how why would I drink a guy's cum from a glass when I can suck it right off his cock?
Regarding fruit juices...all those fruit juices, yes, even if they SAY 100% real natural juice ARE JUST ALL SUGAR NOW even if they say no sugar added. It's because they had to be pasturized in order to sit on the shelf at the grocery store. Yes, this includes brands like Naked, Odwalla, etc. That pasturization process just negated all the nutrition that was once inside.

Didn't realize that about the pasturization process.  But by God I'll get this whole nutrition thing mastered.  I am also considering taking a cooking class at Whole Foods when they have their next one come up

I get the Ezkiel wraps on occasion. I think they have spelt in them. They have a kwazy kwistian kwote on the front. I've made up a whole little narrative in my head that they're some commune a la the Branch Davidians. I really gotta get a life...

LoL, I do eat other stuff too, like bananas and strawberries and brocolli almost everyday, but ricecakes at only 30 cal per serving are always in my daily menu. It was a great replacement for carbs. DOnt get me wrong I unfortunately am human and occasionally and very spontaniously will binge on crap like Jack In The Box, Tacos, cake, chocolate, KFC (Ted like it too.), and plain garbage. These binges can last up to a week or just a day. But In-N-Out I will NEVER ever say no to.

I think I've heard allusions to them in movies. I haven't been in California since 1975, I think. Don't remember going to any.
