I EAT LIKE THIS

I eat a modified Mediterranean/Atkins style diet.

FOR ME a perfect day of eating it would look like this:

6:00am bowl of oatmeal and fruit, no sugar, large green tea

9:00am egg white vegetable omelet w salt and pepper

12:00pm lean turkey meat and cooked green vegetables possibly a baked sweet potato. Multi-vitamin

3:00pm strong coffee and a chocolate chip cookie (this is the modified part but I'm also trying to have some fun and stay human. Besides this should be the last carbs for the day. Only meat, vegetables and water until bed.)

6:00pm green vegetable salad baked or broiled fish or chicken

9:00pm protein shake or fruit or a scoop of peanut butter OR some other healthy snack before getting 8 hours sleep. Sleep is KEY!

I play by the 80:20 rule meaning that I stick to the above 80% of the time.

• buy organic when possible
• keep red meat to a minimum (like once a month)
• learn about the benefits of quinoa and kale
• Buy Dr. Atkins' book on the Atkins diet.
• Buy Bill Philip's book titled Body For Life

Send me any questions you may have!
