Having my food be smart energy packets reduces the excitement of sitting down to dinner. On the other hand, it's been indispensable for getting back in shape -- this combined with working out 4/5 days a week and I'm down to 190 from 210 a year ago, and 245 four years ago.

Breakfast: Shake -- strawberries, blueberries, bananas, Greens Plus superfood powder, chia seeds, flax seeds, soy milk.

Lunch: Usually turkey and field greens and a couple apples. Occasionally PBJs on high-protein bread. Sometimes Thai or Vietnamese pho.

Dinner: Once or twice a week, NY strip medium-rare in a cast-iron pan.

A ton of salmon, three or four nights a week -- fresh, canned.

Tilapia. Been replacing this with pork cutlets lately.

Mix and match any of these with steamed broccoli, baked tomatoes, cauliflower, brown Basmati rice, cottage cheese.

No butter, no sauces -- salt, pepper, sriracha, habanero powder etc. for seasoning.

It'd be possible to add a lot more variety if I wanted to take the time to get creative with it.
