I find the lunches that you guys have very weird - two hot meals in one day? wtf? You know what's even weirder? How someone can eat a hot meal during work breaks, unless they went out during their break, but that would cost a fortune after a while, I suppose :s
Having a hot meal twice a day or even three times is not that weird in some countries. In Asia a lot of people still have their traditional breakfast which is a hot meal, so they have three hot meals a day. I know quite a lot of people who would frown upon having a cold meal

This is my food of choice every day:
Morning and early afternoon (about 6/8 breadslices a day with butter and peanut butter, Heinz sandwich spread or cheese), milk about 2 apples or oranges.

For dinner: Any of those, and usually mixed: Beans/Brocolli/cabbage/cauliflower/carrots/spinnach/brussel sprouts/ Meat (substitutes) and tofu:

Afterwards a big bowl of fat free yogurt.
In the evening: unsalted regular/cashew nuts or anything like that.
About 6/8 glasses of different types of green tea throughout the day and carbonated water.
My tip to you: go slow on getting used to more solid foods, which are usually not as flavorful as fruits, because you seem to have developed a liking for very strong/sweet flavor.

my breakfast has a pretty big range of food. sometimes it's none at all sometiems it's just a bowl of cereal other times it's hasbrowns+sausage+bacon+grits
Lunch, is usually something simple, like corndog, sandwich, hamburger etc etc.
dinner, is w.e, pasta is usually a go-to choice for me.
late night snack is usually fruit of some sort.

You can get it at your local home improvement store. A watermelon plant will begin growing in your stomach and some watermelons can get upwards of 15 pounds before harvest!
Hope this helped! It worked in rugrats.

How do you not starve on that diet O.o? It looks fucking delicious though.
I've had weight drop issues too, I've been trying to do 300 cal's more than my daily requirements like Yandere said and it's working out great, if you don't work out I would suggest raising your calories per day and see how it goes. Also I'm no food experts but that doesn't look like a super healthy diet. (I could be wrong I am not knowledgeable on this)
Edit: peacenl repping typical dutch food . Soo different from other countries. I wonder if they would be happy with our typical lunch/breakfast.

I don't know why you think a girl doesn't need to eat a proper breakfast or dinner, but basically you need a more substantial breakfast and dinner. Fruit is good in the morning, but get something else with it like eggs for protien, or some grains like bread or cereal. For dinner you can't just eat a bowl of strawberries with yogurt... That is just dessert. Make a veggie (like corn or peas), a meat if you want, something weighty like potatoes. Well that's the simple way to do it. There's lots of interesting food you can make for dinner just looking up recipes online, but if you're lazy you can boil frozen corn, bake a potato, and fry some meat. Or make a stir fry with beef strips, and whatever you want...
In my experience one of the greatest joys of the girls I've known is food (actually guys like food too. Weiiiird). So if you wanna eat like a girl, you're gonna need more than a couple fruits.
(well honestly, it's not unusual to have a small dinner, but if you do that you need a big breakfast and a giant lunch. And you ought to have a reason for it, like you're a farmer)

wow reading these posts you guys look anorexic=> breakfast: EGGS+HAM omelette + sour dough multigrain toast+ Glass of orange juice snacks: carrots/cucumber/yogurt+strawberry+nuts+banana+black berry+blueberry // pita + hummus // etc Lunch: Chicken sandwich, lettuce tomato, pickle, radish, etc + Glass of milk snacks: same as before, sometimes muffins, salad, etc Dinner: Steak + potatoes // pasta // Chicken stir fry Snacks: (see before and yeah I snack all day)
I run 10-15km a day (10km @ 36 min), used to work out but haven't in a couple of months but I weigh 150 still, 5'11
I never understand people who count calories, just eat in moderation and pack yourself full of fruits and veggies. with exercise you will be good to go

The trick to the arrangement is to imagine that you're arranging it for a girl that you like a lot. When you're done, you leave the room and come back and act surprised "Wow, thats a nice arranged dinner for me!!!". I actually do that Forever alone... hahahahaha

I never understand people who count calories, just eat in moderation and pack yourself full of fruits and veggies. with exercise you will be good to go In America I find that a lot of people eat huge breakfasts. Not that I mind; I love the whole continental breakfast deal, but that's 'cause I only eat two meals a day (plus maybe one "snack" between those two, I have like no time in between classes and work), so when I still had a dining plan, I stuffed myself during breakfast and didn't eat anything except maybe a soup until dinner. I think in places outside NA, breakfast is usually a lighter affair.
I'm eating so slim these days 'cause of apartment life and being unable to cook anything...
Brunch: pasta or PB&J or cereal+milk or all of the above. Dinner: pasta or rice+whatever-is-lying-around, usu. canned veggies, pre-cooked chicken (don't trust myself cooking meat), or that stringed pork you can buy at Chinese supermarkets ... dunno what it's called in English. 
I got two free dinners this week though and basically pigged out. =X

I eat mostly raw which means minimal preparation. Faster and easier than the fastest fast food! Lately it's been oranges, kiwifruits, bananas, dates and a cooked soup in the evening which takes about 20 minutes to prepare for around 800kcal.
I like data. I count calories so I know I'm getting ENOUGH calories for my goals. Moderation means you're eating the wrong things, IMO.
Carbs carbs carbs FTW! XD

Ok i'll give you my awesome rundown of how i eat.
Breakfast: Nothing, makes me feel bad. Bad as in i wanna puke and die (not even kidding) (+ i have vacation atm, so i wake up at around 12-5 pm (12-17).)
Lunch: Depends on when i wake up, but haven't had lunch in 2 months, else i would eat a little sandwich.
Dinner: Whatever my parents make, mostly potatos, rice, pasta with somekind of meat.
After dinner: This is the time where i actually eat stuff, i would eat tons of rugbrød (rye bread) which is fucking awesome and healthy.
So yea i mostly eat at night and i eat alot at night.

Oh come on. Girls would never eat something like this. It has too many calories!

This is way better than the shit I generally eat. If you want to gain weight you could probably just eat what you are eating now and also add protein shakes and weight gain shakes to your diet, that shouldn't be unhealthy.
