Lose Fat - Get Your Life Back: Part 5

PUTTING MEALS TOGETHER:

This is as simple as I can make it. Here we go.

1) Protein - a serving is the size of a deck of cards, if you are trying to gain muscle, have two servings per meal.

2) Carbohydrates - a serving is 1/2 cup, if you are trying to gain muscle, go for 1.5 servings.

3) Fat- add some olive oil dressing to a salad with as many meals as you like. If you feel you are not getting enough, have 6g of fish oil in capsule or flax oil, every day.

4) Vegetables - Carrots and corn are the only two I would use sparingly, they are higher in sugar. All other veggies are typically ok to have with each meal or as often as you like.

5) Water - 12 cups a day, no excuses.

Put it all together, 6 small meals a day, and you WIN!
