Foods?

I'm new to this forum.

What is everyone eating to help promote energy when doing hard core fitness.  I'm starting P90X and also mixing in some bootcamp exercises as well as doing C25K.  I get so bored with one thing.  I think I'm not eating enough.  Sometimes I eat once a day ;(

The scale says I'm up 6 lbs since Jan. I've gained muscle maybe?


Any tips would be great!

 I don't know if what I'm eating is right, but it works for me.  I will caveat this by saying that I tracked and weighed everything for the first six months, but really hate tracking, so now I only track if my weight goes up.

I eat a lot of the same things every day.  On work days (M-Th):
breakfast:  0% plain Greek Yogurt with 1/2 cup of Kashi go lean high protein cereal and 2 ounces of blueberries
Midmorning: banana
lunch:  4 1/8 ounces of turkey and baby carrots until I'm full
snack: large apple with low fat cheddar cheese

When I get home, I still tend to snack, which I'm trying to stop, but I might have a granola bar and more carrots, string cheese, ...

Dinner is usually something like a fresh salad with fresh spinach, 4 ounce chicken breast, tomato, avocado, cucumber, and low fat balsamic dressing and a whole wheat flat bread.  Don't usually fini**** all.

I'll much on Kashi Go Lean Cereal in the evening, sugar free pops, sugar free fudgeicals, (and this I'm trying to stop, but I love the teaspoon of Nutella).

I have a protein hot mocha every day also.

Weekends will be eggs.

I don't eat before morning workouts.  I know I'm probably consuming a lot of calories (1500-2000?), but my weight is stable and if I don't eat like this, I get really hungry and run down.

Thanks Jan!
