[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My week consists of 3 days of T25 DVDs, and 2-3 classes of ballet or hot yoga (90 minutes each). Meals are home-cooked and vegetarian unless I'm eating out. 
Typical breakfast is steel cut oats, banana, glass of skim milk. 
Lunch is leftovers (bean soup, chickpea salad)
Snack is a piece of fruit 
Typical dinners: black beans and rice, lentil soup, bean burrito, with multiple veggies. 
Dessert few times a week. 
Eat out on weekends [/quote]

This is somewhat similar to my eating habits except that I have 2 breakfasts any morning that I run, and I also have a daily beer or glass of wine + dessert. I'm a longtime vegetarian and prefer home cooked meals whenever possible. I run 5 days/week but no long distances anymore due to injury (25 miles or less per week), live a primarily pedestrian- and bike-oriented lifestyle (work, school, groceries), and play soccer or tennis and bike longer distances (20+ miles) at least weekly. I can pretty much eat whatever I want, which is not [i]why[/i] I exercise but it an awfully nice side benefit. I thought this would diminish with age, but I am inching closer to 50 and still going strong.[/quote]
