I feel I can never win this eating healthy battle. I have been eating healthy all week and in the mornings feel great but mid morning and mid afternoon get so bloated and feel awful...even after a great workout. Does this happen to everyone? My eating habits during the week are awesome, at least I think they are but I always get so bloated... I am drinking tons of water, already drank a half a gallon today and it is only 10:30 AM...am I missing something? Anyone out there have any suggestions/ideas?

Will help if you can post a sample daily diet(with workout times...meals pre and post).

Sample diet...Monday through Friday generally stays the same...

5:30 AM 30 - 45 minutes of cardio

Breakfast: <b>If I have a shake, have it at 7:00 am, if I have oatmeal 8:00 am</b>
1/2 cup oatmeal, 1 packet raisins, 1 tsp brown sugar, 1 med banana (or a Spiru-tein shake, 2 scoops with 1.5 cups skim milk, 1 banana and 1 tbs peanut butter)

lunch/am snack: (the oatmeal usually fills me up where I don't have to eat an am snack and a lunch) large salad w/ either lemon pepper tuna or soy meat mixed w/ taco seasoning

Lunchtime: finish cardio if need to and lift. This week Monday did shoulders and abs, Tuesday legs, Thursday Chest and abs, today back and calves, tomorrow triceps biceps abs

PM snack: Another salad w/ either tuna or soy meat

PM snack if hungry: apple

Dinner: depends.... we will have pasta 1x a week but generally chicken w/ a large salad, and lately been having a weight watchers desert, satisfies sweet tooth and gives me something too look forward too.

I think thats its...last night I did have two glasses of wine though and usually have two or three a night fri - sun.
