Same as snack 1

Dinner
Chicken breasts. Sometimes even a steak or lean meat
Lots of veggies
Sometimes a baked potato or rice and beans. Depends how hard my workout was.

This doesn't include my workout shakes either.

I have 2 cheat meals a week, usually on the weekends.

Plus 2 gallons of water a day. I also drink green tea.

I know many people who couldnt do one single push up.
It's still a good way to judge someone's strenght and not everybody can do chinups at home to judge their strength.You dont need any equipement to do push ups.

I know someone who can do 50 pushups, but can't lift 100 pounds over their head.

Like I said, just because you can do a lot of pushups doesn't make you strong. It is not a good way to judge strength.

I know more about fitness than guns. I actually wanted to become a trainer at one time. Believe me when I say I know what I'm talking about.

OP, you want to do what bodybuilders call "cutting"; it is 90% diet. Cut your caloric intake and do the starting strength routine. You will need to lift heavy in order to keep your metabolism from catabolizing muscle. Eat your body weight in grams of protein a day and lift heavy! If you do starting strength then you can walk/jog on your off days. If you are lifting heavy you won't want to but it'll help burn off the chemical that causes the soreness. good luck.
