I usually buy a 12 pack diet dr.pepper for the week

also my local subway restaurant has a buy 2 foot long sub and get 2 free after 4pm on tuesdays..that usually last me all week

then I only snack on a handfull of raisin every 8 hours..

then on my low calorie days I usually make a pack of skittles last all day..only eating 1 or so every hour

SP, I'm led to believe those subs have only 6g of fat per serve.  Is this true?

Do you eat the cookies?

You can save your hard earned money by downing a gallon of milk a day along with some regular food. ;)

So do you go the whole day eating nothing but skittles on your low-calorie days? Not sure if I read this correctly; reminds me of my days on the Adonis Principles!

Tweeter - I don't think he'd REALLY rape Subway Boy on the salad station either, honey mustard sauce or not.

I guess we'll never know for sure tho.

I can't stand just eating groceries all week so I spend more on eating out; I have to eat out atleast once a day.

Oh, for that I usually steal a few chickens from a nearby poultry farm and spend my afternoons fishing. If I'm feeling really ambitious, I'll take my rifle into the woods and kill something.  :D

just fucking around..here is my meal plan


breakfast: (protein pancakes)
2 scopes whey, 1 banana, 1 scope of oatmeal, 1 tsbp of peanut butter, 1 cup of egg whites...blender..frying pan with pam cooking spray
*my concern is that the heat is destroying the whey benefits

lunch:
  Mcdonalds grilled chicken sandwich with the double meat for $1 more..no bread

afternoon:
     6" subway tuna fish sandwich on whole wheat bread

dinner:
   salmon stuffed with crab meat (costco) or some pieces of jamian jerk chicken
Here comes the money shot

Be a better cook and buy a cooler man!

Truthfully, I have no idea what I spend on food.  Bodybuilding is not expensive in terms of food though.  I could see it upping food $ by 20-30%.

I don't really want to be one of those guys who carries a cooler around with him everywhere he goes because he thinks he will shrink if he doesn't eat every 2-3 hours. Besides, I enjoy eating out; I don't mind spending money on it.
