Hi, im 36yo, 5 ft. 11, 159.17 pounds. My torso is okay to look at (as in not fat nor skinny) but Im very very lean, almost late teenager-like, specially shoulders and arms overall. Legs are also very not muscular, have lesions on both knees so theres a few exercises I just cant do with any weight but my body (and even then). For legs Im used to just go on the elliptical since it doesnt affect my knees (start no resistance, increase to max over 15 mins, sweat a lot).
Used to be bigger when younger (180ish) but suffered from constipations often (too much food), it turned into an hernia from pushing in the end, couldnt eat, bleh, couldnt breathe, lost a lot of weight, now I have it more controlled, so with some belt protection I feel I can pull it off. I've been mock weight exercising without weights and was just fine.
My diet currently is water when I wake up.
2hr later Breakfast: half a walnut, half a pecan, four almonds, a soup spoonful of dried blueberries/cranberries, one dried plum, one dried apricot, 330ml industrial quality fruit juice (any fruit, not naturally prepared).
3 hr later: Half of a restaurant bought lunch: rice, beans (any), a meat portion (chicken, lamb, cow), varied small entree equivalent to 100gr corn in mass, 330ml fruit juice (repeat)
3hr later: repeat of breakfast, replace juice with 330ml probiotic yogurt.
3hr later: other half of lunch, juice again.
2hr later: water if thirsty, rarely some snack (one fruit or whatever theres around)
I fear if I double up my lunch + dinner I may overexert my guts. Diet is not for training, its for healing my guts, the nuts may have given me enough biotin to stop losing hair too! I can clearly replace the drinks with suplements, but Im not sure how to rearrange this. Any ideas? dont need to go hardcore, having a good diet for a decent looking body while not giving up future health would be great.
