Beverage or food routine?

[juffur]

I remember watching the movie "Adam", and they showed him eating the same thing over and over again. I kind of do this. I usually drink rockstar energy drinks daily, but I'm now switching over to tea.

Does anyone here have a particular type of beverage or food they consume quite regularly like a routine??

Chips (or fries), chicken fillet burger, portion of onion rings and a large Coke. That is what I would usually order from a fast food place. I tend to order the same sort of things over and over again despite liking other foods as well.

I eat a bologna sandwich almost every day for lunch. My co-workers were just playfully teasing me about it the other day.

I've been eating a lot more systematically lately. The past year I mainly ate cheese toast, with a tendency to eat potatoes everyday during last winter. These days I try to eat 2 hardboiled eggs in my morning, and then a mix of ramen noodles, pasta pesto and bread during the rest of the day. I'll deviate from it quite a lot though, because of a lack of ingredients, or because I feel like eating something else. It's just handy to have this to fall back on. Basically I find it very time consuming to think about what to eat everyday. I usually forget it anyway as I pretty much only eat when I'm hungry, and I can be not hungry for quite a while.
I always had the tendency to stick to the same food over and over. There was a year at college where I basically ate fries everyday, pizza's are alway quatro formaggi, and if I didn't make myself drink something else from time to time, I'd only drink coca-cola.

Drink = Coke, Coke, Coke, Coke and more Coke

Food = Burgers + Chips

I'm guilty of this as well. Every fast food restaurant I usually catch myself ordering the same item with the same ingredients. I get anal about it, if there's a slight deviation that causes me to cringe I'll either ask for a do-over or just toss it out the window and demand a refund.

Same deal with soft drinks, I have to have Rockstar or Red Bull or whatever caffeine+herbal+mystery ingredient laced alternative every night before I work a shift for two reasons: it's habitual, and for the temporary motivation and energy which I'm usually lacking in. If not, I don't build up any of that until the last working hour. Sucks, but that's how it goes.

I have to have tea in the afternoon every day of the week. If I miss a day, I feel strange.

I have the same breakfast every day, and I always order the same thing when I go to a restaurant (burger and chips)

And I only drink tea and lemonade

I do this kind of thing too, but my diet these days consists of more variety than it did a few years ago. When I was about 5 I went through a stage where I'd hardly eat anything apart from buttered white bread or French stick and Bird's Eye potato waffles. Then when I was about 10 I wanted Yorkshire puddings every day at mealtimes but I eventually got sick of them.

I'll eat the same thing as often as I can get it for weeks until my husband convinces me to pick something else to latch onto.. and it continues like that.
If we go out, I have a specific order for the restaurant despite the fact that I may like something else there.

When I was younger I would only eat chicken fingers at restaurants, so we couldn't go somewhere they didn't have them.

Same breakfast every morning Weetibix with brown sugar and milk and a cup of tea

My family calls me "predictable" due to always eating the same thing over and over again at the few places I eat out at. At home, I have a few meals I'm ok with and I will eat those over and over again. I'm a very picky eater. Also, EVERY morning since I was a youngin' I've been drinking coffee. Yes, I had coffee as a kid, it's delicious! Also, my mom told me that when i was a kid the only way I would eat something new is by lying to me that it was chicken since that's all i wanted to eat. Not sure how I fell for that!

Recently it's been a salad with green leaf lettuce, a particular dressing, croutons, and parmesan cheese. Which is weird, because, although I've long liked salads, I never before particularly cared for that exact type of salad.

I'm on a really strict diet. I pretty much have celery every day now, along with at least 7 venti tumbler refills of water (that's like 1.3 gallon total. Venti tumblers hold 4 more ounces than an actual venti cup at Starbucks.).
I eat greek yogurt, chicken, and I wrap the chicken in cabbage leaves. It's pretty amazing for something so minimal in ingredients.
I sometimes have almonds, especially if I'm on the go.
I can also have skim milk. Basically my current diet is select veggies, poultry/fish and very minimal number of dairy products (plain yogurt, cottage cheese and skim milk). I can have like 1 cup of brown rice a day but I figure it's easier to cut out carbs completely than to only be "teased" with the concept of "you can't have seconds.". I'm sure I get carbs through varying things I eat. Today is the start of week 4 (I could start phase 2 for this week only but I think I'll wait until next week because I'm 1 lb away from 179 and wanted to be in the 170s range by August.) and I feel fine (and 12 lbs lighter! :laugh: )

I really miss coffee though. This is a thyroid diet, so I can't have caffeine. It overstimulates the thyroid.
