Eating Plan:
Here is a basic run down of how I eat:
- breakfast: 2 scrambled eggs, 3 grape tomatoes, 1/2 avocado, 1 or 2 cuties (mandarin style oranges) or orange, herbal tea
- snack: almonds, walnuts, raisins
- lunch: salad with chicken or fish, apple
- snack: almonds, walnuts, or pistachios with raisins
- dinner: salad with steak, chicken or fish
- snack: almonds, walnuts, or pistachios with raisins
Salads: The salad should be very diverse, get creative:
- heart of romaine or spring mix, baby spinach, tomato (cherry for simplicity), canned black olives, avocado, pear, cucumber, broccoli, carrots,
balsamic vinaigrette. I often add walnut or almonds. I may add raisins for a less seasonal and more available source of carbohydrates.
- salad dressing: one that is not super high calorie, non-milk based, and something you'll like to eat (or mix olive oil with blasamic for your own)
- walnuts, almonds, pistachios
- mixed greens
- broccoli
- raisins
- boneless, skinless chicken breast (frozen or fresh)
- tilapia fillets (frozen or fresh)
- tri-tip steak (I BBQ it)
