Sure - just with the caveat that no one else should eat the way I do (ideally I shouldn't even eat the way I do). Today was a travel day so it was a *little* worse than typical, but is in the realm of my normalcy.
~00:01 I had two protein bars (pure protein chocolate deluxe). That's 360 calories and more of a "candy bar fix" than maximizing protein timing. With them I also drank about 18oz / 500ml of water. I then went to bed.
~03:45 I woke up to use the restroom & had another two protein bars (pure protein chocolate peanut butter - 400 calories) and probably 9 oz /250ml of water. Again totally unnecessary from a protein perspective and overall probably more detrimental than beneficial...
~06:00 I typically get a few more hours of sleep, but to fit in my exercise today I woke up early and fixed breakfast: 40g (~1/2 cup) of old fashioned oats (150 calories) mixed with 20g of dried cranberries (65 calories). I also had a clementine on the side (35 calories).
~06:25 I went for a 3 minute warm-up walk (-19 calories) followed by an easy 32 minute run (-382 calories). I then went for a vigorous 55 minute "zone 5 interval" bike ride (-723 calories) during which time I ate a small banana (+95 calories) and drank about 1 L of water (I sweat a lot). Normally I split my bike and run on opposite ends of the day to help recover faster, but I had to go out of town all day and knew I wouldn't feel like it at night... To cool down after my ride I took the dogs for a 7 minute walk (-49 calories)
~0800 I downed a protein shake (160 calories) and hopped in the shower.
0900 I was on the road. I packed 3oz of almonds (488 calories) mixed with 40g of dried cranberries (130 calories) and my ~18oz/500ml bottle of water to have throughout the morning.
~1300 I had lunch at Chipotle - a burrito bowl (steak: 150cal, black beans: 130 cal, brown rice: 210 cal, salsa: 25 cal, lettuce: 5 cal) along with 24oz of unsweet tea (0 cal)
~1700 I drove through Panda Express and got a plate of Super Greens (90 cal) with 2 sides of broccoli beef (150cal x 2). I had another ~20 oz of unsweet tea (10 cal)
~2100 I got home and took the dogs for a brisk 20 minute walk (-131 calories). I then ate a ~220g apple (114 cal) and 125g worth of red grapes (89 cal). I'll have another protein bar after midnight, but I'll log that in tomorrow's diary for consistency.
All told that is 3,166 calories consumed. Based on past weight loss I know I burn about 2660 calories without any exercise and today I estimate I burned an additional 1304 for a net deficit of about 800 calories. I currently have about 45 lb of body fat, so I should be able to handle a maximum daily deficit somewhere between 900-1450 before I start losing more lean mass than my body can rebuild (~20-32 calorie deficit per pound of fat according to the research of the late Dr. Seymour Alpert).
Again, no one else should eat like this. Even if you can handle the calories, today's fast food meals had a ton of sodium & you're really not supposed to have more than 2 protein supplements a day - I had 5... On days with less of a time crunch, I get most of my protein from lean meats (plus cooking myself allows me to eat a lot more vegetables).
Dude, you're a beast!
