As a husband, father, actor, and director, Rob Lowe has a full plate. Known for many things - most noticeable to many Millennials from the loveable sitcom, Parks & Recreation - the six-time Golden Globe nominee has a rocking bod for his age (would you have guessed is well into its mid-fifties?). The star chalks it up to prioritizing his health and nutrition and eliminating certain vices out of his diet. “I cut alcohol and sugar out of my diet when I was in my 20s, and I’ve been living a low-carb lifestyle ever since,” Lowe says. And although that may sound restrictive, Lowe’s meal plan is anything but. Have a look for yourself. Here are six meals that Rob Lowe enjoys to keep himself in perfect condition. 1. Protein pancakes Rob wakes up to a protein-packed breakfast consisting of plain Greek yogurt with berries and low-carb granola. Many commercial granolas are loaded with belly-ballooning sugars, but the actor whips up his own crunchy topper with omega-3-rich flax seeds, cinnamon, and peanut butter.

Trail bars  After his breakfast, Lowe wards off dreaded energy dips with an Atkins Dark Chocolate Sea Salt Caramel Harvest Trail Bar. Choosing a snack with both protein and fiber will help stave uncomfortable hunger pangs before lunchtime hits. [[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/Bgg6nlmnKMX/?tagged=trailbar]] 3. Full salad For lunch, The Bad Seed director opts for a chopped salad with chicken, salami, cheese, and veggies. He tops his balanced bowl with a creamy dressing.

Cheese and nuts To fight the afternoon slump, Rob enjoys a satiating combo of cheese and nuts for his second snack. Balancing the protein-rich cheese with fiber-filled nuts such as almonds, pistachios, and pecans help stabilize blood-sugar levels and add a satisfying crunch.

Steak and veggies Come suppertime, Lowe digs into grilled steak and vegetables, sticking to his low-carb lifestyle.

Shakes (diet friendly of course) The father-of-two indulges in a 160-calorie Atkins Milk Chocolate Delight Shake to curb the sweet tooth post dinner. With 15 grams of slow-digesting protein, this pre-bedtime snack is sure to help Lowe rest easy. For someone who eats five times a day, this doesn't look unhealthy in the slightest. “I can eat the stuff I love, and that’s why it’s not a diet. Atkins is a lifestyle. I don’t eat low-carb to lose weight—it’s just the way I live,” Lowe explains.
