Well, I've kinda let myself go over the summer, so my current diet/workout wouldn't be the way to go, but from Jan to April I was basically doing...
Diet:
Breakfast: Omelet, bowl of cereal, two pieces of toast.
Lunch: Two (huge) turkey sandwiches, three slices of pizza, chicken burrito, plus random other food that's available.
Dinner: Two (huge) turkey sandwiches, two slices of pizza, whatever meat is available (usually steak or chicken), and a pasta dish.
Post-dinner: Gyro, pizza, or calzone.
Post-post dinner: Can of chicken or tuna.
Workout- changed a lot, but this is basically what I was doing at the end.

Workout doesn't really seem like much, but I basically did enough weight relative to what I could handle and it seemed to be effective.
I know I'm gonna take flak for only hitting legs once a week, but I was rowing for my school, and my legs just weren't up to the extra beating. I'll hopefully remedy that this next term at school.
Best of luck to ya.
Oh yeah, also, in terms of goals, my original goal was the get a Brad Pitt in Fight Club kinda look for the summer, but I just watched Four Brothers last night, and I think I'm gonna start moving towards Mark W's look in that movie.
