Show me your meals
What does eating healthy even look like? Show us the pictures.
I struggle with my weight and spent much of my summer cycling season getting back-down to my ideal weight. I know we all have different ideas about how and what we should be eating. But here is my idea of a "dieting" breakfast. I like coffee so I had coffee with my cereal. All the nutrition I needed before (and during) my 20 mile bicycle ride. According to my [app] calculations 184 calories.
Crispix cereal (1cup), skim milk (1/2 cup), and blackberries (7).

I could do this all day as my dinner photos are legend among my FB friends.
Recently grilled sockeye and early corn. I am sure I through in a multigrain roll with it.
Keeping with the theme, grilled whole bronzino with a spinach salad:
Finally, no need to go to McDonald's when you want a breakfast sandwich, Make your own, much better one. Eggs, spinach, tomato, red onion and mushrooms on spelt bread with a little garlic mustard:

Mine would be shocking..... breakfast of two cup shredded hash browns, two strips of bacon and two eggs and coffee. Lunch is usually a salad. Dinner almost never looks like I'm on a diet, the beauty of riding as much as I do. I scale my dinner to fit my calorie budget for the day/week to ensure a deficit however small at times. indyfabz, those look yummy!

And you make an important point. The dinner of someone who is riding a lot is likely not going to look like the dinner of somene who is riding a lot less. Duing my recent tour, I was scarfing down calories and I still lost some weight.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure folks don't want to see my ~19,000 calorie week worth of stuff I pound down... and am calorie neutral.
Wife said she was going to hire one of them rodeo clowns to keep me out the groceries when she comes home from shopping.
