My main meals vary every day to keep variety going but breakfast, snack & lunch are pretty set.
50g Cereal & 2 x Brown Toast with low fat spread Apple or two/a LOT of grapes Ham & low fat cheese sandwich/ Main meals include chicken tomato & herb pasta bake, chicken & pasta with tomato & chilli sauce, lean beef meatballs with arabiatta & tagliatelli, chilli con carne with basmati rice. Steak & steamed veg once in a while & the very occasional Mexican food(fajitas/burritos/quesadillas). Training just now is gym based. 5 minutes on treadmill @ 10mph Ab machine, 3x10reps @ 80kg Tricep curl, 3x10reps @ 50kg 200m sprint row @ max resistance(usually about 33-35 seconds) For cardio I developed a pacing run. 3mins at 8mph, 1min at 15mph, 3mins at 7mph, 1min at 17.5mph, 3min walk at 6mph, 1min at max pace(20mph). Leg press, 3x8reps @ 300kg Squats, 3x8reps @ 120kg I used to do a helluva lot more but just getting back into it so I can start properly track training again. Any tips would be awesome. I wanna be a beast again.

Food looks healthy enough but a lot of carbs... carbs aren't the enemy but we don't want an excess
Be wary of any ready made sauces, full of sugars... wherever possible make your own. I make all my own sauces now and always use fresh plum toms instead of tinned... you have to be inventive with food when prepping What cereal do you tend to have and what milk do you have ? What are you drinking throughout the day ? Do you have a rough idea of weights ? For your pasta & bread do you have white or wholemeal ? Wholemeal is far better How often are you training ? And how often are you doing cardio ? For example my current routine is below, baring in mind I'm still doing a lean bulk 45 mins cardio AM after a black coffee 5 times a week 10 mins cardio after I do my weight training 2x sprint sessions weekly For my 45 mins and 10 mins cardio I just power walk with ankle weights on Weight training is 3 times weekly... my routine changes every 8 weeks. I can see you're training legs and tris but do you want to train the rest of your body as well and if so how many days can you train ? |

Wow, I thought I knew what I was doing!
Ready made sauces are a cheat meal for me, usually make them myself but not fresh toms, chopped cartoned normally with fresh herbs. I try to have bran flakes with raisins & half fat milk but sometimes my housemates eat all the raisins & drink all the milk so I have to make do. Ricicles/Lucky Charms with purple milk happens about twice a week. If I'm at uni for a long time I use a sports drink. If not, water & squash. Maybe a ginger beer or two at the weekend. Fizzy drinks are a bit of a vice. Always wholemeal pasta & bread. About 150g of chicken & maybe 100g pasta. Never weigh it just go with what looks right. I've been eating lots of meals in big portions since I was about 14, having small meals makes me feel faint. Train about 4 times a week. Could do every day but my washing would pile up & the effect would be a bit painful. I've done daily stuff before & its not pretty. I'm heading to Prague in about 20mins until monday so I'll get more detailed when I get back. Defiinitely appreciate the input, I'll be using it as much as I can.

I think if you can drop the carbs a little and add in some morning cardio that'll see you right.
I'm no expert at all but worth a try... always happy to try and help |

Such a sad story - I don't suppose you knew them did you? I know you meet lots of people from all over through MT and your training:
