Recommendations

(e.g. a 150 pound person should eat 150 grams of protein per day while training).
- Eat from Protein + Carbohydrate group (see above) each meal
- *Eat every 3 to 3 1/2 hours (keeps metabolism burning)
- Drink one to two gallons of water daily (flushes out wastes)
- Strength training at least three times per week
- 30 minutes of cardio exercise five times per week
- Be mindful of glycemic index
foods that spike your blood sugar
Sample Recipe
I throw 5 frozen chicken breasts in crockpot w/ lemons, onions overnight and store
in refrigerator. I make brown rice in bulk and take a meal of brown rice & chicken,
or can of tuna. GOOD FOOD MAY BE EXPENSIVE, BUT IT�S CHEAPER THAN DOCTOR BILLS AND
MORE FUN!!!
THE WRONG STUFF

- Sugar (bad!)
- Gravies (bad!)
- Butter/Margarine (bad!)
- Fruits (eat very sparingly due to sugar)
- Dairy products (bad!)
- Fatty meats (bad!)
- Rare meats (bad!)
