Sport Hungy, Bored, Underfed or Greedy???

Sport Fitness
Hi all, i need people to tell me if im hungry, bored, underfed or greedy!

I had a bowl of bran flakes with almonds, raisins and banana for breakfast at half 8.

I pitta bread, half with an egg white, half with peanut butter at half 10. ive brought with me chicken pieces to have at lunch in around half hour, i know i could easily eat it, but should i?

does it sound like im eating too much/ too well across the morning to lunch?

i have football training at 7 so will need something at 4-ish for that, plus dinner afterwards.

I need a PA to help me with this

Thanks

Ben
 
You should 5-6 times per day.
 
Diet

Drink penty of water, it may curb your hunger pangs slightly. Add some protein to your morning meal. As Tony said you should be eating 5-6 times a day, healthy food, of course.
 
i do the whole 5-6 thing quite well, just a bit concerned i overeat sometimes.

do you have 5-6 equal meals or some smaller? id like to cut out the bread but its convenient and satisfying! Im on two egg whites and a whey drink everyday, plus then i usually have tuna at lunch, beans and chicken for dinner and sometimes a home made protein bar (from this forum, best thread around).

what bread does everyone eat? somedays ill just have a pitta and maybe a slice of wholemeal, other times it'll be four wholemeal etc (beans on toast is my favourite meal in the world).

Never feel entirely confident with the diet thing. always seems too much, too little or missing something.

thanks

As far as 5-6 equal meals, that depends on the individual. There may be peole that eat an equal amount of cals in each meal and others that fluctuate their cals during the day. Do you eat fruits and vegetables ? They are beneficial and can make you feel a "bit" full without loading you up with excess calories. Drink lots of water also. As far as bread, when I do eat it .. it is of a whole grain variety.
 
that is not enough food.

you have next to no protein at breakfast beside the milk.

you have a few measly grams of protein in 1 egg white.

YOu should be getting at LEAST 20g of protein per meal...6 meals a day, that's 120g of protein. its a good start to hitting 1g of protein per pound of lean mass.

If you think you are over eating, track your food with fitday, and see just how much you're really eating.

from this end you appear to be starving.
