The Plan

THE PLAN:
Try to eat 6 small-medium sized portions a day and incorporate at least 15 minutes of exercise into each day.
1. Eat breakfast which includes a whole grain,fruit, and vegetable
2. Snack on a handful of nuts and a piece of fruit (peaches are in season, and sooo... good!!)
3. Smoothie or Vegetable Juice
4. Enjoy a real meal here: Salmon or Chicken breast, a whole grain w/ side of veggies (ex.asparagus)
5. Yogurt with fruit or granola
6. Complex Carbohydrate (ex. a piece of whole wheat toast or a bowl of cereal), tea or wine (this meal will be similar to your breakfast meal but lighter)

DRINK WATER WITH EVERY MEAL 
EVEN IF YOU DRINK SOMETHING ELSE AS WELL
 
All of these meal ideas are interchangeable and can be swapped for anything that fits into the categories of: whole grain, protein, fruit, or vegetable. Make sure to AVOID processed foods as much as possible. These are only suggestions, so feel free to substitute different recipes as they are posted. Take liberties and enjoy your favorite meals, but REMEMBER everything you put in will remain unless you work to change it into energy through exercise.  

Tip: If you have to order out, be smart and think before you act. Whatever you put in, will manifest somewhere on your body. So, go ahead with ordering a combo meal, but get a salad or veggies instead of fries. You'll be glad you did.
