First off, you're eating because you're bored. You're bored because you spend 912151 hours on the computer doing nothing. I suggest you figure out some sort of schedule that will keep you busy and away from the fridge. I'm lucky to have a pool to swim in every evening and dog to walk.

At most, I eat one real meal a day because I keep myself busy. Try it.

^bad idea and obviously it doesn't work


If you're not eating, your body's running out of fuel. I know there are better diets than mine, but right now I'm eating Breakfast Lunch and Dinner with a snack in between each. Lunch is typically my largest meal, and in between breakfast (usually oatmeal or bagel w/ peanut butter), I eat peanut butter crackers, plain bagels, yogurt, etc.

P90X sucks ass. The nutritional guidelines entail carb cycling without an increase in fat to compensate for the lack of glycogen you'll have in your system (the notion that fat actually serves such a role is suspect in itself, but it's at least something over nothing at all - low fat diets fail for entirely different reasons, of course), and there are barely any, if any at all, posterior chain movements.

ya thinkI should continue to do situps and pushups? cause i dont really want to get bulk RIGHT NOW. I just want to get flat and toned.

Sit-ups also suck ass. They contraindicate your vertebrae and don't isolate your abdominals.

"Tone" is the opposite of flat. Bulking will make you more toned.

"The modern fitness industry's concept of 'toning' muscles is specious - it might sound cool, but it lacks any tangible and definable meaning. The term 'muscle tone' or tonus describes an electrophysiological phenomenon, a measure of ionic flow across muscle cell membranes. It can be thought of as the muscle's readiness to do anaerobic work. Most exercise programs that claim to improve muscle tone are actually lower-intensity hypertrophy programs and are only moderately effective for improving muscle tone. If 'tone' is the goal, strength is the method." -Practical Programming, pg. 60
