Hey so basically, I spent the past 2 years getting in shape again. I went from 305 @ 6’2 back to about 240. My girlfriend started spin and lost about 40-45 herself. I played a season of semi pro hockey and felt pretty good as it went on and I really surprised myself tbh. Mid-30’s, played beer league the year before to get back into it and did lots of drop in. I played major junior at 205-210. I’d like to get another 20 pff at least. I was 246 this morning.

To take the next step and be even sharper next season, my diet will need to improve. I cut back my drinking and my pop / drive thru but I still eat a ton of pasta and don’t watch calories. Ive outran my fork as good as I could but it’s time to diet.

The problem is when I last was an athlete, I had someone to cook for me. I’m a picky eater with limited cooking ability or time.

What are some of your easy work lunches, quick breakfasts or suppers? I work a lot so microwaveable is best. I’ve just been making rice / chicken and broccoli and not much else. If anyone has any cookbooks or rear purses, I’m open to it. I’d like to watch my sodium too while I’m at it. I considered trying factor.

Fav no fuss solution for just such a situation. No real cooking besides stirring it all together.
Double check the macros to make sure they are where you want them to be but roughly -
1 Minute Oatmeal 50g and CASEIN protein powder 50g.
You'll have to mess around to find what is best way to do it for you. I either boil water and stir it all together then nuke a bit, then let it sit for 20 minutes to cook and cool or do it overnite style, mix up in a jar and sit it in the fridge for a day or 2 no cooking until you nuke it to eat it.
U could follow the directions for stovetop traditional cooking too.
Casein mixes way better than whey in my experience, never gone wrong with chocolate or choc-PB flavor.

The combination of air fryer, rice cooker, and a microwave for quick cooking vegetables is unbeatable. The convenience makes it more likely to stick to the plan.
 
I like the recipes on this website:

Even if you're not into Paleo Diet, it's all healthy recipes and quick to make (usually 15-20 minutes). You can see them by category on the website (poultry, fish, beef, etc)
 
Man you can bake like 9lbs of chicken breast at a time and then freeze it. +1 on the microwave, airfryer, and rice cooker.

I’ve ate clean all week, having bass my girlfriend caught with rice for lunch every day but then I crushed 30 beer on Saturday. Lol…

Out of bass. I will have to send her to catch some more. I picked up a large quantity of salmon.

Quite good to have a woman who provides from fishing, not very common.

However drinking 30 beer in one day after dieting all week is retarded, no offence. I'm guilty of that myself way too often.
